Reconstructing Dipsacales phylogeny using Angiosperms353: issues and insights
Premise Phylogenetic relationships within major angiosperm clades are increasingly well resolved, but largely informed by plastid data. Areas of poor resolution persist within the Dipsacales, including placement of Heptacodium and Zabelia, and relationships within the Caprifolieae and Linnaeeae, hindering our interpretation of morphological evolution ...

Summary The encapsulation of seeds in hard coats and fruit walls (pericarp layers) fulfils protective and dispersal functions in many plant families. In angiosperms, packaging structures possess a remarkable range of different morphologies and functionalities, as illustrated by thermo and hygro‐responsive seed pods and appendages, as well as ...

Virus‐induced gene silencing as a tool for functional studies in Cleome violacea
Premise Cleomaceae is emerging as a promising family to investigate a wide range of phenomena, such as C4 photosynthesis and floral diversity. However, functional techniques are lacking for elucidating this diversity. Herein, we establish virus‐induced gene silencing (VIGS) as a method of generating functional data for Cleome violacea, bolstering ...

Fossil palm reading: using fruits to reveal the deep roots of palm diversity
PREMISE Fossils are essential for understanding evolutionary history because they provide direct evidence of past diversity and geographic distributions. However, resolving systematic relationships between fossils and extant taxa, an essential step for many macroevolutionary studies, requires extensive comparative work on morphology and anatomy.

Potencial do endocarpo da manga (Mangifera indica L.) como adubo orgânico
A cultura da Mangifera indica L. possui ampla produção no nordeste e sudeste do Brasil, devido ao valor nutricional e propriedades do fruto. Entretanto, após o consumo in natura ou de manga processada, boa parte do fruto é desperdiçada, como o endocarpo.
