Özet
Biogeographic disjunctions, including intercontinental disjunctions, are frequent across plant lineages and have been of considerable interest to biologists for centuries. Their study has been reinvigorated by molecular dating and associated comparative methods. One of the classic disjunction patterns is that between Eastern Asia and North America. It has been speculated that this pattern is the result of vicariance following the sundering of a widespread Acrto-Teritary flora. Subtribe Nepetinae in the mint family (Lamiaceae) is noteworthy because it contains three genera with this disjunction pattern: Agastache, Dracocephalum, and Meehania. These disjunctions are ostensibly the result of three separate events, allowing for concurrent testing of the tempo, origin, and type of each biogeographic event. Using four plastid and four nuclear markers, we estimated divergence times and analyzed the historical biogeography of Nepetinae, including comprehensive sampling of all major clades for the first time. We recover a well-supported and largely congruent phylogeny of Nepetinae between genomic compartments, although several cases of cyto-nuclear discordance are evident. We demonstrate that the three disjunctions are pseudo-congruent, with unidirectional movement from East Asia at slightly staggered times during the late Miocene and early Pliocene. With the possible exception of Meehania, we find that vicariance is likely the underlying driver of these disjunctions. The biogeographic history of Meehania in North America may be best explained by long-distance dispersal, but a more complete picture awaits deeper sampling of the nuclear genome and more advanced biogeographical models.
