abstract = {This is the first comprehensive molecular investigation of the Linnean genus Lamium, the type genus of a large and important family of flowering plants, the Lamiaceae. We have addressed phylogenetic relationships and presumed allopolyploid speciation by use of nuclear (NRPA2 and 5S-NTS) and chloroplast (matK, psbA-trnH, rps16, trnL, trnL-F, and trnS-G) DNA sequence data. Nuclear and chloroplast data were incongruent, and nuclear data showed a better correlation with morphology. Bayesian and parsimony phylogenetic results show that: (1) Lamium galeobdolon is sister to all remaining Lamium species; (2) Wiedemannia is phylogenetically nested within Lamium; (3) L. amplexicaule is polyphyletic; (4) most tetraploids have hybrid origins as suggested from the literature; (5) L. amplexicaule var. orientale is allotetraploid as well; and, (6) Mennema?s (1989) infrageneric classification is not corroborated by molecular data. Based on the molecular results, and taking morphology into account, we suggest resurrection of the species L. aleppicum and L. paczoskianum.}
