Phylogenetic analysis of nuclear ribosomal DNA ITS/5.8S sequences reveals that Millettia is polyphyletic, and that subclades of the core Millettieae group, such as the New World Lonchocarpus or the pantropical Tephrosia and segregate genera (e.g., Chadsia and Mundulea), each form well supported monophyletic subgroups.
The third lineage includes the genera Afgekia, Callerya, and Wisteria.
These genera are resolved as a basal subclade in the Inverted Repeat lacking clade, which is a large legume group that includes the many well known temperate and herbaceous legumes, such as Astragalus, Medicago and Pisum, but not any other Millettieae.

Afgekia sericea - an attractive member of the pea family, named after A. Kerr.
The TCD herbarium contains an excellent representation of Kerr's collections which together with our recent collections have allowed us to target plant groups and areas of Thailand which require further study.

At the Heliconia and Ginger Garden, several common trees such as the Traveler’s Palm (Ravenala madagascariensis), Kasai (Pometia pinnata), Wild Cinnamon (Cinnamomum iners) and Pulai (Alstonia augustifolia) were also pointed out.
The Vine Garden mesmerized everyone with a grand show of flowers with the Bengal Vine (Thunbergia grandiflora, Thunbergia lauriflora) and Silky Afgekia (Afgekia sericea) in full bloom and the unique flowers of the fly catching vine (Aristolochia labiosa) flowers that resembles a cockerel.
Everyone was also treated to the fragrance of the Cananga fruticosa (a dwarf variety of Cananga odorata).
