Molecular Phylogenetic Analyses of Vicia L. (Fabaceae) Taxa Growing in the Southeastern Anatolia Region Based on Chloroplast TrnL Sequences

Molecular Phylogenetic Analyses of Vicia L. (Fabaceae) Taxa Growing in the Southeastern Anatolia Region Based on Chloroplast TrnL Sequences

In the current study, some natural Vicia L. taxa growing naturally in the Southeast Anatolia Region were investigated from the point of view of molecular phylogenetic. For this purpose, transfer ribonucleic acid Leucine (trnL) was sequenced in order to study the phylogenetic relationships of the Vicia L. species. Lathyrus inconspicuous L. var. inconspicuous and Lathyrus cassius Boiss. were used as an outgroup. The length of the trnL area was determined approximately as 269-534 bp. The trnL sequences were submitted to the NCBI database and accession numbers received. We obtained information about the point mutations, as well as the protected and the changing characters. The taxa distinguished in the section level were separated and also grouped in terms of proximity on the phylogenetic tree (sect. Narbonensis, sect. Lathyroides, sect. Peregrinae, sect. Vicia, sect. Lentopsis). While, sect. Hypechusa, sect. Ervilia and sect. Cracca were not detailed to a great level of informativity. The data acquired were observed to be greatly reliable in terms of their ability to be used in solving taxonomical problems of the Vicia L. taxa.
