Figure 1.
Taxonomic relationships among selected legume genera. Each genus contains one or more food crops, or a genomic model (Medicago, Lotus, Chamaecrista). Approximate inferred speciation dates follow the timings in Lavin et al. (2005). The phylogeny is after Lavin et al. (2005) and Lewis et al. (2005). Common names and uses are in Table I.
