Molecular Biology of Vitaceae using DNA Markers: A Review

Nasheez Fatma

Abstract: Vitaceae is the only family of the predominantly tropical order Vitales. The phylogenetic position of Vitaceae has been variously hypothesized prior to APG III (2009). Relationships of Vitaceae to other families have long been highly speculative and variable. Recently there are 14 accepted genera of Vitaceae with their species strength c.978 (sensu APG III, 2009). The phylogeny of Vitaceae has been reconstructed with several markers which confines Leea within Vitaceae. The present study defines the review of Vitaceae phylogeny using several DNA markers.
