The Rest of the Iceberg. Legume Diversity and Evolution in a Phylogenetic Context1

Most readers of a special issue of Plant Physiology on legumes will be familiar with only a handful of species, primarily pea ( Pisum sativum ) and the various economically important “beans” such as soybean ( Glycine max ), and of course, the model legumes Medicago truncatula and Lotus japonicus
