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 ...

Effects of taxon sampling on molecular dating for within-genus divergence events, when deep fossils are used for calibration [PDF]

, 2009
A universal method of molecular dating that can be applied to all families and genera regardless of their fossil records, or lack thereof, is highly desirable.

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 ...

Trochodendron aralioides, the first chromosome-level draft genome in Trochodendrales and a valuable resource for basal eudicot research. [PDF]

Gigascience, 2019
International audienceBackground The wheel tree (Trochodendron aralioides) is one of only 2 species in the basal eudicot order Trochodendrales. Together with Tetracentron sinense, the family is unique in having secondary xylem without vessel elements ...

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 ...

Nuclear phylogenomics of angiosperms and insights into their relationships and evolution

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 66, Issue 3, Page 546-578, March 2024.
This review synthesizes numerous nuclear phylogenomic analyses of angiosperms (analyses that resolved the relationships of major clades, most orders, and many families and subgroups) and discusses the improved understanding of angiosperm biogeography, diversification dynamics, and character evolution.

Angiosperm‐wide analysis of fruit and ovary evolution aided by a new nuclear phylogeny supports association of the same ovary type with both dry and fleshy fruits

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 66, Issue 2, Page 228-251, February 2024.
Phylogenetic analysis and molecular dating elucidate relationships for orders and families, trace crown angiosperms’ Triassic origin, unveil parallel carpel fusions in early eudicots, monocots, and magnoliids and associate specific fruit types sharing the same ovary type.

Data from: Buxus and Tetracentron genomes

, 2021
Ancient whole-genome duplications (WGDs) characterize many large clades of angiosperms, including angiosperms themselves. Prominently, the core eudicot clade accommodates 70% of all angiosperms and shares ancestral hexaploidy, termed gamma.
