Kosteletzkya s.s. is a genus of 17 species (excluding the endemic species
of Madagascar), found in the New World, continental Africa, Madagascar,
and Southeast Asia. Recent chromosome counts revealed diploid, tetraploid,
and hexaploid species. To estimate the history of the genus, we sequenced
nuclear and plastid loci for nearly all Kosteletzkya spp., in the majority
of cases, with multiple accessions per species. The African species form a
paraphyletic grade relative to a New World clade. Polyploidy has occurred
only in some African species, resulting in the relatively ancient
formation of one putative autotetraploid species (K. semota), one recent
allotetraploid species (K. borkouana), two relatively ancient
allotetraploid species (K. begoniifolia and K. rotundalata) and one recent
allohexaploid species (K. racemosa). Our inferences regarding the
hypothesized parentage of the polyploids mostly corroborate previous work
based on chromosome-pairing patterns in artificial hybrids, highlighting
the utility of these complementary data sources.
