Other claims from this paper (15)
- Observation Leaf starch granules were absent in P. pubescens but present in the other studied species.
- Observation Arc-shaped leaf starch grains were unique to P. angulata and P. peruviana.
- Observation Polygonal grains were specific to P. micrantha.
- Observation Styloids were diagnostic for P. peruviana.
- Observation P. angulata had a polygonal stem outline, thick cuticle, and lacked trichomes and sclerenchyma cells.
- Observation All studied Physalis species except P. pubescens were woody.
- Observation P. pubescens had a conjoint bicollateral vascular bundle.
- Observation Anatomical clustering separated tetraploid P. angulata from the diploid species.
- Observation Anatomical clustering grouped P. pubescens with P. micrantha.
- Observation P. peruviana was closely related to the group of P. pubescens and P. micrantha.
- Method / resource Molecular analysis achieved 100% PCR amplification.
- Observation GC content varied between 33.1% and 36.1%.
- Observation BLAST analysis showed species-specific similarities.
- Observation Phylogenetic analysis separated P. micrantha from the other species.
- Observation The four Physalis species were genetically distinct with low genetic diversity.
