Occurrence of adventitious root primordia and of stem nodulation. a Simplified Bayesian ITS + matK phylogeny of the whole group with the A. evenia, A. afraspera and BRH (Bakerophyton-Rueppelia-Humularia) clades represented by black triangles. The polytomy is depicted in bold. The shared presence of adventitious root primordia is depicted on the stem by a blue circle. Dashed red boxes indicate groups comprising aerial stem-nodulating species. Asterisks refer to illustrated species in (b) for aerial stem-nodulation. b Stems of representatives for the different lineages and groups. Small spots on the stem correspond to dormant adventitious root primordia and stem nodules are visible on the species marked by an asterisk. Bars: 1 cm
