Abstract: | Partial amino acid sequences of the plastocyanins from 22 members of 8 tribes of the Compositae are separated by ancestral amino acid sequence methods into 3 groups. These groups agree generally with those of previous classifications of the species from which the plastocyanins were obtained, based mainly on morphological characters, although closer relationships between the Cichorieae and Cynareae, between the Heliantheae, Senecioneae and Calenduleae and between the Astereae and Inuleae are suggested by the sequence data. |
