The genus Astragalus L. (Fabaceae) is reviewed from both phyloenetic and taxonomic
points of view. As the largest genus of flowering plants it has attracted many researchers,
but much work remains to be done. A short taxonomic history with special focus on
infrageneric classification of the genus, a list of phylogenetic studies including the applied
markers and sampling strategies as well as a short discussion on evolution of
morphological characters are presented.
