Phylogeny of the Asparagales based on three plastid and two mitochondrial genes† [PDF]
American Journal of Botany, 2012 • Premise of the study: The Asparagales, with ca. 40% of all monocotyledons, include a host of commercially important ornamentals in families such as Orchidaceae, Alliaceae, and Iridaceae, and several important crop species in genera such as Allium, Aloe, Asparagus, Crocus, and Vanilla.

Systematic root anatomy of Asparagales and other monocotyledons
Plant Systematics and Evolution, 2000Root anatomy of several taxa of Asparagales and some taxa formerly included in Asparagales is described in a systematic context together with a literature review. The presence of a dimorphic outer layer with long and short cells is widespread in monocotyledons, indicating that it originated early in the monocot lineage, but whereas this layer is ...

Phylogeny, Genome Size, and Chromosome Evolution of Asparagales
Aliso, 2006 Asparagales are a diverse monophyletic order that has numerous species (ca. 50% of monocots) including important crop plants such as Allium, Asparagus, and Vanilla, and a host of ornamentals such as irises, hyacinths, and orchids. Historically, Asparagales have been of interest partly because of their fascinating chromosomal evolution.

Constraints and selection: insights from microsporogenesis in Asparagales
Evolution & Development, 2007SUMMARY Developmental constraints have been proposed to interfere with natural selection in limiting the available set of potential adaptations. Whereas this concept has long been debated on theoretical grounds, it has been investigated empirically only in a few studies.

Ledebouria socialis As a Key to Understanding the Evolution of Gynoecium in Asparagales
Doklady Biological Sciences, 2022For Ledebouria socialis, a superior ovary with interlocular septal nectaries that are confined to both ascidiate and plicate zones of the carpel is typical. It is impossible to describe the gynoecium zonation consistently, since the existing terminology does not allow us to display all its peculiarities. A part of the nectaries located in the gynophore

Biogeography of the monocotyledon astelioid clade (Asparagales)
2021The astelioid families (Asteliaceae, Blandfordiaceae, Boryaceae, Hypoxidaceae, and Lanariaceae) have centers of diversity in Australasia and temperate Africa, with secondary centers of diversity in Afromontane Africa, Asia, and Pacific Islands. The global distribution of these families makes this an excellent lineage to test if current distribution ...

Microsporogenesis and pollen sulcus type in Asparagales (Lilianae)
Canadian Journal of Botany, 1997Cladistic analysis of molecular data (plastid rbcL sequences) supports the interpretation of simultaneous microsporogenesis as an apomorphy for Asparagales (Lilianae), with a reversal in the most derived 'higher' asparagoid clade, which is entirely successive.

Structural diversity of fructans from members of the order Asparagales in New Zealand
Phytochemistry, 2003The water-soluble carbohydrates (WSCs) extracted from the underground parts of Arthropodium cirratum, Astelia banksii, Bulbinella hookeri, Dianella nigra and Xeronema callistemon, and the flower stem of Phormium tenax have been investigated. Extracts of A. cirratum, B. hookeri, D. nigra and P. tenax contained 108.4, 28.1, 41.9 and 29.7 mg gFW(-1) WSCs,

Embryology, cytology and systematics ofHemiphylacus, Asparagus andAnemarrhena (Asparagales)
Plant Systematics and Evolution, 1998A detailed description of ovule development and embryology ofHemiphylacus alatostylus is given, together with a chromosome count and karyotype. Comparative data are presented forAsparagus andAnemarrhena, since earlier analysis ofrbcL sequence data indicated a relationship between them.Hemiphylacus should be included inAsparagaceae. A close relationship

The Complete Genome Sequence of Chlorophytum comosum (Asparagaceae, Asparagales), the Spider Plant
Biodiversity Genomes, 2022Chlorophytum comosum is a species of evergreen perennial flowering plant native to tropical and southern Africa but has become naturalized in other parts of the world, including western Australia and Bangladesh. We present the whole genome sequence of Chlorophytum comosum.
