Integrating phylogenomic and morphological evidence to solve the taxonomy of Phoebe legendrei (Lauraceae) and closely related species
In this study, we resolved the taxonomic delimitation within P. legendrei and its closely related species, and discovered a new species of Phoebe from southwestern China. This work contributes to evaluating species diversity within Phoebe and lays the foundation for the conservation and resource utilization of these species.
