Single- and low- copy genes are less likely subject to concerted evolution, thus making themselves ideal tools for studying the origin and evolution of polyploid taxa. Based on the sequences of a single-copy nuclear gene encoding plastid acetyl-CoA carboxylase (Acc-1), a total of 47 accessions Triti...
