abstract = {Interspecific relationships and molecular divergence within Hamamelis were studied based on sequences of the internal transcribed spacers (ITS) of nrDNA, trnL-trnF intergenic spacers and the matK gene of cpDNA, and the nuclear gene GBSSI (waxy). Phylogenies based on the four data sets were congruent and the combined analysis produced a well-supported pattern of relationship among the species. The North American species, Hamamelis virginiana, H. mexicana and H. vernalis, formed a robust clade with H. virginiana basal. This suggests that Hamamelis vernalis and H. mexicana are not relicts, as previously supposed. The Japanese species, Hamamelis japonica, is more closely related to the North American species than to the Chinese species, H. mollis, which is consistent with leaf morphological characters. This biogeographic pattern is congruent with that seen in several other plant groups and is consistent with a series of vicariance events possibly involving Beringian exchange between Asia and North America.}
