The closeness of the genera Millettia and Pongamia is established. The closeness of Tephrosia and Millettia-Pongamia is not established even though all the genera fall under Millettieae. This study supports the affinity of Tephrosia with Desmodium. Since the tribal classification of subfamily Papilionoideae is tentative right now, this study can contribute to the taxonomy of Millettieae. Copyright@ International Science Community Association
