Abstract
Most legume phylogenies have relied heavily on plastid gene datasets, with or without nuclear ribosomal DNA ITS data, but the sequences of nuclear genes and gene-spanning regions offer certain advantages. We tested the phylogenetic utility of five nuclear loci across the species-rich legume clade Hologalegina: PGDH, TRPT, HRIP, RNAR, and CNGC4 (CNGC4-like protein). Our objective was to determine whether any of these nuclear loci could be beneficial at resolving lower-level phylogenetic relationships in this clade, with a particular interest in finding markers that might work at the species level. While the phylogenetic utility of these nuclear loci is unknown outside of Hologalegina, we determined that two of the loci, PGDH and TRPT, are useful for phylogenetic analyses within Hologalegina, depending upon the desired scale of resolution.
