Perianth Phyllotaxis Is Polymorphic in the Basal Eudicot Anemone and Eranthis Species [PDF]
Floral organs are clade-specifically arranged to either spiral or whorled (concentric circles) phyllotaxis. The basic number (merosity) of perianth organs within a whorl is limited to three in most monocots and to four or five in most eudicots.

Plastome of the mycoheterotrophic eudicot Exacum paucisquama (Gentianaceae) exhibits extensive gene loss and a highly expanded inverted repeat region [PDF]
Mycoheterotrophic plants are highly specialized species able to acquire organic carbon from symbiotic fungi, with relaxed dependence on photosynthesis for carbon fixation.

Evolution of fruit development genes in flowering plants
The genetic mechanisms regulating dry fruit development and opercular dehiscence have been identified in Arabidopsis thaliana. In the bicarpellate silique, valve elongation and differentiation is controlled by FRUITFULL (FUL) that antagonizes ...

Based on analyses of combined data sets of three genes (18S rDNA, rbcL, and atpB), phylogenetic relationships among the early-diverging eudicot lineages (Ranunculales, Proteales, Trochodendraceae, Sabiaceae, and Buxaceae) remain unclear, as are relationships within Ranunculales, especially the placement of Eupteleaceae.

The Core Eudicot Boom Registered in Myanmar Amber [PDF]
AbstractA perfect flower in a mid-Cretaceous (early Cenomanian) Myanmar amber is described as Lijinganthus revoluta gen. et sp. nov. The fossil flower is actinomorphic and pentamerous, including calyx, corolla, stamens, and gynoecium. The sepals are tiny, while the petals are large and revolute.
