Supermatrix phylogeny of Salvia and the taxonomic state of the genus.

Salvia is a genus of ca. 1000 species and is distributed virtually worldwide. Previous studies have indicated that the genus is not monophyletic, and recently workers have begun the long task of re-defining the various non-monophyletic (former) Salvia lineages. Using a supermatrix approach, we examine relationships within the ″Salvia″ lineage and subsequently discuss the fate of the genus going forward.
