Abstract

Based on the presence of intermediate morphological characters, such as serrated leaf margins and flower structures,Ilex x wandoensis was initially described as a putative natural hybrid betweenI. cornuta andI. Integra, and was formally described as a new hybrid species,I. x wandoensis C. F. Mill., and M. Kim. However, using molecular markers generated via random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), we have now discovered hybridization in populations of theI. x wandoensis complex collected from Wando and Jeju Islands, Korea. Marker bands of the putative parent taxa also were found in some populations ofI. x wandoensis, confirming its hybrid origin. Morphological variability within and among those populations was confirmed by model-based clustering methods, using multilocus genotype data. Phenograms generated from RAPD bands indicated that some accessions ofI. x wandoensis clustered with one of the parental species. This implied the occurrence of hybridization and recurring backcrosses of the hybrid to both parents, resulting in various hybrid derivatives because of the segregation and recombination of traits.Ilex x wandoensis was more closely related toI. cornuta than toI. integra suggesting that it backcrossed more with the former than with the latter.
