ABSTRACT
The genus Lonicera L. is widely distributed in the north temperate zone and is well-known for its high species richness and morphological diversity. Previous studies have suggested that many sections of Lonicera are not monophyletic and phylogenetic relationships within the genus are still poorly resolved. In this study, we sampled 37 accessions of Lonicera, covering four sections of subgenus Chamaecerasus plus six outgroup taxa, to recover the main clades of Lonicera based on sequences of nuclear loci generated by target enrichment and cpDNA from genome skimming. We found extensive cytonuclear discordance across the subgenus. Both nuclear and plastid phylogenetic analyses supported subgenus Chamaecerasus sister to subgenus Lonicera. Within subgenus Chamaecerasus, sections Isika and Nintooa were each polyphyletic. Based on the nuclear and chloroplast phylogenies, we propose to merge Lonicera korolkowii into section Coeloxylosteum and Lonicera caerulea into section Nintooa. In addition, Lonicera is estimated to have originated in the mid Oligocene (26.45 Ma). The stem age of section Nintooa was estimated to be 17.09 Ma (95% HPD 13.30-24.45). The stem age of subgenus Lonicera was estimated to be 16.35 Ma (95% HPD 14.12-23.66). Ancestral area reconstruction analyses indicate that subgenus Chamaecerasus originated in East Asia and Central Asia. In addition, sections Coeloxylosteum and Nintooa originated in East Asia, with subsequent dispersals into other areas. The aridification of the Asian interior likely promoted the rapid radiation of sections Coeloxylosteum and Nintooa within this region. Moreover, our biogeographic analysis fully supports the Bering and the North Atlantic Land Bridge hypotheses for the intercontinental migrations in the Northern Hemisphere. Overall, this study provides new insights into the taxonomically complex lineages of subgenus Chamaecerasus and the process of speciation.
