Phylogenetic relationships among the six Iris subgenera were reconstructed by chloroplast trnL-F sequences data using maximum likelihood. The entire matrix of aligned bases analyzed includes 1043 characters and the length of all sequences varied from 747 bp to 893 bp, and mutation sites accounted for 18.79% of the total length. The cluster analysis results accorded well with the subgeneric classification of Chinese Iris species. Results suggested rhizomes and sepals lacking ornament are ancestral characters, and subg. Xyridion and subg. Limniris are more primordial than another four subgenera. Subgenus Nepalensis and subg. Xyridion were resolved as monophyletic.
