Morphological and molecular data to determine the origin and taxonomic status of Prosopis chilensis var. riojana (Fabaceae, Mimosoideae)

This study analyzes the morphological and genetic characteristics of three sympatric populations of Prosopis from Argentina. Although morphological and geographical data suggest that Prosopis chilensis var. riojana is an interspecific hybrid of Prosopis chilensis var. chilensis and Prosopis flexuosa...
