ABSTRACT Beetle pollination is considered an ancestral trait in angiosperms, retained in a few specialised families engaging in longstanding interactions with ancient groups of beetles. While beetles represent some of the earliest angiosperm pollinators, there is also increasing evidence that some beetle‐pollinated plants represent a derived condition.

Physiological roles of lignins – tuning cell wall hygroscopy and biomechanics
Summary Lignins constitute the second most abundant carbon‐storing biopolymers in the biosphere. These phenolic polymers accumulate in different concentrations, compositions, and localisations within and between cell wall layers and cell types. Lignins were acquired during plant terrestrialisation 450 million years ago, and the diversification of their

Cycas Leaf:Seed Ratios Do Not Influence Seed Size, Gametophyte Carbohydrates, or Leaf Photosynthesis
Experimental manipulations of the balance between leaves as source organs and reproductive structures as sink organs have contributed greatly to our understanding of the assimilate partitioning and regulation of leaf photosynthesis.

Root Growth and Branching of Two Cycas Species Are Influenced by Form of Nitrogen Fertilizer
Horticultural research into the group of plants known as cycads has been deficient, and this includes the study of root growth and function. The form of nitrogen (N) available to plants is known to influence root growth and morphology.
