Among the {{nihongo|''sengoku daimyō''|戦国大名}} were many who had been ''shugo-daimyō'', such as the [[Satake clan|Satake]], [[Imagawa clan|Imagawa]], [[Takeda clan|Takeda]], [[Toki clan|Toki]], [[Rokkaku clan|Rokkaku]], [[Ōuchi clan|Ōuchi]], and [[Shimazu clan|Shimazu]]. New to the ranks of the daimyo were the [[Asakura clan|Asakura]], [[Amago clan|Amago]], [[Nagao clan|Nagao]], [[Miyoshi clan|Miyoshi]], [[Chōsokabe clan|Chōsokabe]], Hatano, and [[Oda clan|Oda]]. These came from the ranks of the ''shugodai'' and their deputies.

Additional ''sengoku-daimyō'' such as the [[Mōri clan|Mōri]], [[Tamura clan|Tamura]], and [[Ryūzōji clan|Ryūzōji]] arose from the ''jizamurai''. The lower officials of the shogunate and [[rōnin]] ([[Later Hōjō clan|Late Hōjō]], [[Saitō clan|Saitō]]), [[Kokushi (official)|provincial officials]] (Kitabatake), and ''[[kuge]]'' (Tosa Ichijō) also gave rise to ''sengoku-daimyo''.{{Citation needed|date=November 2007}}
