A taxonomic synopsis of Heliotropiaceae (Boraginales) in Thailand

open access: yes, 2023
A synopsis of Heliotropiaceae in Thailand is presented together with the taxonomic history, identification keys, distribution, phenology, herbarium specimen citations and diagnostic characters of each species. The taxonomic character of the family is of terminal style with a conical stigma structure forming a basal ring around the ...

INDEPENDENT ORIGINATION OF FLORAL ZYGOMORPHY, A PREDICTED ADAPTIVE RESPONSE TO POLLINATORS: DEVELOPMENTAL AND GENETIC MECHANISMS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Observations of floral development indicate that floral organ initiation in pentapetalous flowers more commonly results in a medially positioned abaxial petal (MAB) than in a medially positioned adaxial petal (MAD), where the medial plane is defined by ...

Progestogens and androgens influence root morphology of angiosperms in a brassinosteroid‐independent manner

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 123, Issue 5, September 2025.
Significance Statement Plants produce progesterone and androgens, which alter root morphology in A. thaliana and 60% of tested angiosperms. Brassinosteroids seem uninvolved. Understanding the mechanism is like navigating an unknown city—exemplarily Dittelbrunn (a small village in Bavaria)—where the expected shortcut (interaction with brassinosteroids ...

From phylogenomics to breeding: Can universal target capture probes be used in the development of SNP markers for kinship analysis?

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, Volume 13, Issue 1, January-February 2025.
Abstract Premise Leveraging DNA markers, particularly single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), in parentage analysis, sib‐ship reconstruction, and genomic relatedness analysis can enhance plant breeding efficiency. However, the limited availability of genomic information, confined to the most commonly used species, hinders the broader application of ...

Contrasting bee pollination in two co-occurring distylic species of Cordia (Cordiaceae, Boraginales) in the Brazilian semi-arid Caatinga: generalist in C. globosa vs. specialist in C. leucocephala

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2010
In this study we compare the reproductive biology of Cordia globosa and C. leucocephala (Cordiaceae, Boraginales; formerly referred to Boraginaceae) to understand the functioning of the floral morphs and the relations with their effective pollinators ...

Is it all Phacelia pinnatifida? Molecular delimitations and taxonomic revision of Phacelia sect. Glandulosae in South America based on ddRADseq

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 1437-1459, December 2024.
Abstract Phacelia sect. Glandulosae, with ca. 62 taxa, is the most diverse of the 11 sections of the genus Phacelia (Hydrophyllaceae). The family is largely restricted to North and Central America, but the genus Phacelia has an amphitropical distribution with nine species reported from western South America, five of which have been assigned to P. sect.

Lectotypifications of six taxa in the Boraginales (Cordiaceae and Heliotropiaceae) [PDF]

open access: yesPhytoKeys, 2016
A large number of specimens used as original material for the description of new species were destroyed in the bombing of the Berlin-Dahlem herbarium, B, in 1943. Six lectotypes are designated here for Cordia discolor Cham., Cordia multispicata Cham., Cordia tobagensis Urb. and its variety broadwayi Urb.

Sequence diversity in the monooxygenases involved in oxime production in plant defense and signaling: a conservative revision in the nomenclature of the highly complex CYP79 family

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 120, Issue 3, Page 1236-1256, November 2024.
SUMMARY Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases of the CYP79 family catalyze conversion of specific amino acids into oximes feeding into a variety of metabolic plant pathways. Here we present an extensive phylogenetic tree of the CYP79 family built on carefully curated sequences collected across the entire plant kingdom.

The typification of Cordia flavescens Aubl., the transfer of Firensia Scop. from Cordia L. (Cordiaceae; Boraginales) to the synonymy of Ocotea Aubl. (Lauraceae), and the identity of the species of Firensia

open access: yesPhytoKeys, 2013
Firensia Scop. was based on Cordia flavescens Aubl., a species described and illustrated from a mixed collection that Scopoli never transferred to Firensia. The genus included three additional species formally named by Rafinesque.

Characterisation of a Novel Fruit Type Found in Ehretia (Ehretiaceae, Boraginales) [PDF]

open access: yesBlumea - Biodiversity, Evolution and Biogeography of Plants, 2004
Ehretia (Ehretiaceae, Boraginales) has been divided into two major clades, characterised by fruits with four endocarpids (Ehretia I, including species of Ehretia formerly belonging to Rotula) and by fruits with two endocarpids (Ehretia II, plus E. microphylla (= Carmona retusa) with an undivided endocarp), respectively.
