Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• Plastid and nuclear phylogenies resolve three major lineages within Schizopeponeae. • Herpetospermum s. l. is non-monophyletic, supporting the new genus Operculifructus. • Operculate pepos represent a novel fruit type independently evolved in Cucurbitaceae. • Fruit type, flower color, and sexual system show lineage-specific evolutionary patterns.
