Taxonomy of the parasitic genus Orobanche
RAPD markers are used by Roman et al. (pp. 637-642) to study variation among 19 species of Orobanche. The pattern of interspecific variation obtained is in general agreement with previous taxonomic studies based on morphology with partition into two different sections (Trionychon and Orobanche) being confirmed. However, the dendrogram location of some species does not always fit the conventional botanical classification.
