Molecular data from chloroplast ndhF sequences identify about 13 major clades within Solanum (Bohs, 2005). The schematic view of the relationships of these major clades is provided below. It is this scheme that is being used to order the taxa for the PBI Solanum project. Select a clade name to view the accepted species contained within it:
