From flower to fruit: The origin of the trilocular ovary and fruit development in Phragmipedium longifolium (Warsz. & Rchb.f.) Rolfe (Orchidaceae: Cypripedioideae). [PDF]
Phragmipedium longifolium has a trilocular ovary with a post‐genital septum, and during fruit development, lignification plays a crucial role in facilitating dehiscence and seed dispersal. Abstract While carpels in Orchidaceae are predominantly unilocular, trilocular carpels can also occur, mainly in branches separated during the early diversification ...

Phylogeny, Genome Size, and Chromosome Evolution of Asparagales
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.
