I'll try to dig up an
article I read on sub-arctic polyploids and high-altitude lobelias.
This one?
"The giant lobelias consist of a Chilean hexaploid group and a
pantropical tetraploid group."
from
"Chloroplast Genome Rearrangements and the Evolution of
Giant Lobelias from Herbaceous Ancestors "
Eric B. Knox, * Stephen R. Downie,t and Jeffrey D. Palmer
Mol. Biol. Evol. 10(2):414-430. 1993.
