| Theses from Uppsala University : 3793 - Tracing History (491 words) |
| A phylogeny of 73 taxa representing all genera of Colchicaceae, except the monotypic Kuntheria, is presented. |
| An investigation of the distribution of colchicine within the expanded Colchicaceae is conducted to evaluate the potential of colchicine as a synapomorphy of the re-circumscribed family. |
| Further, the DIVA analysis indicates that Colchicaceae originated in Australia, first reached Asia and North America, and later Africa, from where they expanded to Europe and also dispersed back to Australia. |
