Astragalus trifoliastrum (Fabaceae), a revived species for the flora of Turkey

WOS: 000362577700005As the result of surveying the relevant type specimens, together with macro- and micro-morphological studies, chromosome counting and ITS sequencing, Astragalus trifoliastrum was found to be a species independent of A. laguriformis (with which it has peviously been synonymized). In contrast, A. wanensis, assumed to be a synonym of A. trifoliastrum, indeed appears to be identical with A. trifoliastrum. The diploid chromosome number of 2n = 16 is reported for the first time for A. trifoliastrum
