The wild ancestor of cultivated Spinach ( Spinacia oleracea L.) has been tentatively identified in the past in S. tetrandra Steven ex M.Bieb. or S. turkestanica on morphological grounds ( Andersen & Torp, 2011). However, molecular investigations established beyond any doubt that the central Asiatic S. turkestanica is the only wild relative of S. oleracea (e.g., Ku et al., 2017; Gyawali et al., 2021), toward which maternal introgression has been demonstrated ( She et al., 2022).
