Among Caryophyllales, the Beta section of the genus Beta, within the Amaranthaceae/Chenopodiaceae alliance , is an interesting study model with species and subspecies (Beta macrocarpa, Beta patula, Beta vulgaris maritima and B.v. adanensis) differing in geographical distribution and mating system. In addition, one of the species, B. macrocarpa, mainly diploid, varies in its level of ploidy with a tetraploid cytotype described in the Canary Islands and in Portugal. In this study, we analyzed the nucleotide diversity of chloroplastic and nuclear sequences on a representative sampling of species and subspecies of the Beta section (except B. patula). Our objectives were (1) to assess their genetic relationships through phylogenetic and multivariate analyses, (2) relate their genetic diversity to their mating system, and (3) reconsider the ploidy status and the origin of the Canarian Beta macrocarpa.Show less >
