Background Relict lineages are an important component of biodiversity, but it is unclear under what circumstances these groups persist. A potential example of such a group is the Alseuosmineae (Asterales) of Oceania.

Dittrichia viscosa (Asterales: Asteraceae) as an Arthropod Reservoir in Olive Groves [PDF]
Non-crop cultivated plants can provide agriculture with ecosystem services, such as biological pest control and, a sound knowledge of the relationships between these plants and arthropod communities is important.

Why does pollen morphology vary? Evolutionary dynamics and morphospace occupation in the largest angiosperm order (Asterales). [PDF]
Morphological diversity (disparity) is a key component of biodiversity, and increasingly a focus of botanical research. Despite the wide range of morphologies represented by pollen grains, to date there are few studies focused on the controls on pollen ...

Aqueous extract of bitter leaf Vernonia amygdalina Delile (Asterales: Asteraceae) ameliorates testosterone-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in Wistar rats [PDF]
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is an age-dependent condition involving prostate enlargement which may lead to lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). This study was designed to study the ameliorative effect of the aqueous extract of bitter leaf Vernonia
