There was significant divergence among the sections, Juglans, Rhysocaryon, and Cardiocaryon, except for the section, Trachycaryon containing a single New World butternut taxon, J. cinerea, which was placed into the section, Rhysocaryon.
A total of seventeen taxa representing the four sections within Juglans and an outgroup taxon, Pterocarya stenoptera, were included in the phylogenetic analyses using the maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood, and neighbor-joining methods.
The cladogenesis within Juglans seems to deviate from the evolutionary hypothesis based on the fossil history and biogeographic evidence.
