Phylogenetic Relationships of Dipsacales Based on rbcL Sequences
Annals of the Missouri Botanical Garden, 1992 Nucleotide sequences of the chloroplast gene rbcL were obtained from Lonicera, Sambucus, Adoxa, and Cornus. Phylogenetic analyses of these sequences, along with previously sequenced Dipsacales and placeholders for other Asteridae and Rosidae, lead to the following conclusions: (1) the genera of Caprifoliaceae (in any traditional sense) do not form a ...

Combining Historical Biogeography with Niche Modeling in the Caprifolium Clade of Lonicera (Caprifoliaceae, Dipsacales) [PDF]
Systematic Biology, 2010 The Lonicera clade Caprifolium contains approximately 25 species distributed around the Northern Hemisphere, including in the Mediterranean climates of California and Europe. We sequenced the second intron of LFY to help resolve relationships within the clade where the internal transcribed spacer and chloroplast markers had previously failed to do so ...

Floral epidermal structure and flower orientation:Getting to grips with awkward flowers [PDF]
, 2011 The petal epidermis has been found to be important in mediating flower-pollinator interactions. Structures produced on the petal surface, in particular cone-shaped papillate (or conical) cells, have been shown to enhance bumblebee preference for flowers.

Phylogeny and diversification of Valerianaceae (Dipsacales) in the southern Andes
Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2012 The southern Andean clade of Valeriana provides an excellent model for the study of biogeography. Here we provide new data to help clarify phylogenetic relationships among the South American valerians, with special focus on taxa found in the southern Andes.

Molecular evolution of CYCLOIDEA in plant order Dipsacales (589.6)
The FASEB Journal, 2014 CYCLOIDEA (CYC) is a TCP transcription factor that has been shown to be involved in specifying dorsal identity in the petals of bilateral flowers. In the plant order Dipsacales, DNA sequencing has provided evidence that multiple, different functional copies of CYC have evolved, most likely via whole genome duplication events in the past.

Comparative micromorphology and anatomy of flowers and floral secretory structures in two Viburnum species [PDF]
, 2016 In entomogamous plants, the presence and function of floral secretory structures, whose main role is to attract pollinators, is strictly associated with the pollination ecology and hence the reproductive success of the plant.

Barcoding success as a function of phylogenetic relatedness in Viburnum, a clade of woody angiosperms [PDF]
, 2012 BACKGROUND: The chloroplast genes matK and rbcL have been proposed as a “core” DNA barcode for identifying plant species. Published estimates of successful species identification using these loci (70-80%) may be inflated because they may have involved ...

Defense mutualisms enhance plant diversification [PDF]
, 2014 The ability of plants to form mutualistic relationships with animal defenders has long been suspected to influence their evolutionary success, both by decreasing extinction risk and by increasing opportunity for speciation through an expanded realized ...
