Abstract in brief
The study uses a comprehensive total-evidence approach, combining morphological, geographical, and genomic data, to better understand and define species within the complex genus Nymphaeaceae, which is known for being difficult to classify.
Researchers confirmed three distinct species, including a new species named Nymphaea magnifica, by analyzing specimens from various sources, such as historical records, citizen scientists, and genomic sequencing.
The findings underscore the importance of integrating different data types in species delimitation, which improves accuracy in identifying and conserving plant diversity, especially in groups with challenging morphology.]
A new "giant" species: Victoria boliviana (Nymphaeaceae)
It holds the world record for leaf size at 3.2 meters across.

When you think about newly discovered species of plants, you don't imagine them being gigantic and growing for 177 years at @KewGardens near London.

4 июля 2022 года в журнале Frontiers in Plant Science вышла статья о выявлении с помощью генетического анализа нового вида кувшинки. Изменения ДНК в хлоропластах сделали Викторию боливийскую отдельным новым видом. Этот вид имеет самые крупные листья. https://t.co/MyiQfU7OnD https://t.co/ahxlIVk2Wn
I mezi velkými a známými rostlinami, jako jsou obří lekníny rodu Victoria, může čekat na objevení nový druh. https://t.co/cOCUwhXVjK https://t.co/UPXV6jEqgM
