Research Abstract

In Flora of China, they recognize one species and eleven varieties in the Aster ageratoides complex in China. However, our study proposes to marge them into about three taxa. On the other hand, we recognize six species and four varieties in Japan, which suggests that evolutionary radiation might have occurred rather in Japan. It is possible that the complicated landform of Japan blocked gene flow between populations and accelerated speciation, while continuous landscape in continent permitted more frequent gene flow so that the distribution area of a taxon could be wider in China.
Unfortunately, it is difficult do reveal phylogenetic relationship between the taxa of A. ageratoides complex because their genetic differentiation is too small to reconstruct a phylogenetic tree. But we consider the small genetic differentiation itself reflects the recent, rapid evolutionary radiation of this group.
