Phylogenetic relationships within Oxytropis DC. sect. Gloeocephala Bunge from Northeast Asia were studied using plastid intergenic spacers (psbA–trnH + trnL–trnF + trnS–trnG) and ITS nrDNA. Populations of O. anadyrensis Vass., O. borealis DC., O. middendorffii Trautv., O. trautvetteri Meinsh., and O. vasskovskyi Jurtz. were monomorphic or characterised by a low level of chloroplast genetic diversity (h varied from 0.143 to 0.692, and π from 0.0001 to 0.0005). Presumably, the low genetic diversity was a result of the severe bottlenecks during Pleistocene glaciation-interglacial cycles. Twenty chlorotypes were identified; species studied had no shared chlorotypes. Chlorotypes of O. anadyrensis, O. borealis, and O. middendorffii formed two lineages each, while the chlorotypes of O. trautvetteri and O. vasskovskyi formed one separate lineage each in the phylogenetic network. There were specific diagnostic markers of cpDNA in each lineage, excluding O. vasskovskyi. The presence of a species-specific diagnostic marker in O. trautvetteri and specific markers in two lineages of O. anadyrensis support circumscribing these taxa as independent species. Regarding ITS nrDNA polymorphism, five ribotypes were detected. The differences revealed in plastid and nuclear genomes of Oxytropis sect. Gloeocephala confirmed that the Asian sector of Megaberingia was the main centre of diversification of arctic legumes.
