Inflorescence and floral morphology of Haptanthus hazlettii (Buxaceae, Buxales) [PDF]
Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2015 The enigmatic Central American tree Haptanthus hazlettii has recently been placed in Buxaceae (Buxales) by molecular evidence. However, Haptanthus appears morphologically to be fundamentally different from other Buxales in having pluriovular carpels with parietal placentation and reduced male reproductive units of an obscure morphological nature.

New Phytologist, Volume 239, Issue 2, Page 547-561, July 2023., 2023 Summary Recent methodological advancements in determining the nonexchangeable hydrogen isotopic composition (δ2Hne) of plant carbohydrates make it possible to disentangle the drivers of hydrogen isotope (2H) fractionation processes in plants. Here, we investigated the influence of phylogeny on the δ2Hne of twig xylem cellulose and xylem water, as well ...

The best of two worlds: ecology and evolution of ambophilous plants
Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 2, Page 391-420, April 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Ambophily, the mixed mode of wind and insect pollination is still poorly understood, even though it has been known to science for over 130 years. While its presence has been repeatedly inferred, experimental data remain regrettably rare. No specific suite of morphological or ecological characteristics has yet been identified for ambophilous ...

Evolution and patterning of the ovule in seed plants
Biological Reviews, Volume 96, Issue 3, Page 943-960, June 2021., 2021 ABSTRACT The ovule and its developmental successor, the seed, together represent a highly characteristic feature of seed plants that has strongly enhanced the reproductive and dispersal potential of this diverse group of taxa. Ovules encompass multiple tissues that perform various roles within a highly constrained space, requiring a complex cascade of ...

Unlocking plant resources to support food security and promote sustainable agriculture
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 2, Issue 5, Page 421-445, September 2020., 2020 Biodiversity is essential to food security and nutrition locally and globally. By reviewing the global state of edible plants and highlighting key neglected and underutilized species, we attempt to unlock plant food resources and explore the role of fungi, which along with the wealth of traditional knowledge about their uses and practices, could help ...

Plastid phylogenomic analysis of green plants: A billion years of evolutionary history
American Journal of Botany, Volume 105, Issue 3, Page 291-301, March 2018., 2018 Premise of the Study For the past one billion years, green plants (Viridiplantae) have dominated global ecosystems, yet many key branches in their evolutionary history remain poorly resolved. Using the largest analysis of Viridiplantae based on plastid genome sequences to date, we examined the phylogeny and implications for morphological evolution at ...

The legacy of terrestrial plant evolution on cell wall fine structure
Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 47, Issue 4, Page 1238-1254, April 2024.Abstract The evolution of land flora was an epochal event in the history of planet Earth. The success of plants, and especially flowering plants, in colonizing all but the most hostile environments required multiple mechanisms of adaptation. The mainly polysaccharide‐based cell walls of flowering plants, which are indispensable for water transport and ...
