Aeschynanthus (Gesneriaceae) is a large genus of tropical epiphytes that is widely distributed from the Himalayas and China throughout South-East Asia to New Guinea and the Solomon Islands.

Cloning individual sequences from the PCR product generated a phylogenetic tree of 23 Aeschynanthus species (two cl ...[more]
