EVOLUSI, SPESIASI, DAN HIBRIDISASI PADA BEBERAPA ANGGOTA SAPINDACEAE

Abstract

Evolution in Sapindaceae have been running for a long time, as evidenced by the fossil of Sapindopsis encountered in the mid Cretaceous. Based on its characteris­tics, the genus is thought to live in stressful environments. Sapindaceae has the habitus of shrubs, trees, climbers, and the vine. Speciation in Sapindaceae can be found in genus Acor, while members of Sapindaceae which had hybridization can be found in genus AesculusEvolution in Sapindaceae have been running for a long time, as evidenced by the fossil of Sapindopsis encountered in the mid Cretaceous.
