Résumé / Abstract

Restriction site mapping of chloroplast DNA from 31 species representing 26 genera of the Ranunculaceae was performed using eleven restriction endonucleases. The chloroplast genome varies in length from approximately 152 to 160 kb. Length variants are frequent in the Ranunculaceae and range from usually less than 300 bp to rarely 1.5 kb. The inverted repeat is extended into the large single copy (LSC) region by 4-4.5 kb in Anemone, Clematis, Clematopsis, Hepatica, Knowltonia, and Pulsatilla. Several inversions are present in the LSC-region of the cpDNA in all these genera and in Adonis. The frequency of restriction site mutations varies within the chloroplast genome in the Ranunculaceae between 4 and 32 mutations per kilobase, and is lowest in the inverted repeat and the regions containing the ATPase-genes and the genes psaA, psaB, psbA, rpoB, and rbcL
