Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Hybridization was documented among diploid and tetraploid Aconitum species in the Tatra Mountains.
- Observation The homoploid hybrid A. × pawlowskii was identified.
- Observation The triploid hybrid A. × berdaui was identified at 2n(3x)=24.
- Observation Chloroplast alleles formed two haplotypes shared across ploidy groups, indicating introgression.
- Mechanism Presumed gene flow proceeded from tetraploid to diploid species through a triploid bridge.
- Observation Two A. × pawlowskii specimens with A. firmum chloroplast DNA had A. firmum-type bracteoles.
- Mechanism Shared ISSR loci support an ancient allopolyploid origin for A. firmum with an A. variegatum-type parent.
