The stepwise rise of angiosperm-dominated terrestrial ecosystems. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Angiosperms are the most diverse and abundant plant taxon today and dominate the majority of Earth's terrestrial ecosystems. They underwent rapid divergence and biogeographic expansion from the early to the middle Cretaceous. Yet, transformative ecosystem change brought about by the increased ecological dominance of angiosperms unfolded ...

Gynoecium diversity and systematics of the Laurales [PDF]
Carpel and ovule structure was comparatively studied in representatives of all eight families of the Laurales: Amborellaceae, Calycanthaceae, Chloranthaceae, Gomortegaceae,Hernandiaceae, Lauraceae, Monimiaceae, and Trimeniaceae. In all representatives the carpels are closed at anthesis.

Comparative Gynoecium structure and development in Calycanthaceae (Laurales) [PDF]
Calycanthaceae, sister to all other Laurales, are the most distinct family of the order in their gynoecium structure (lateral placentation, presence of two ovules). Gynoecium structure was studied in a representative of each genus of Calycanthaceae and gynoecium development in a representative of each of the two subfamilies (Calycanthoideae and ...

Taxonomic and phylogenetic biases in translocated angiosperm plant species across European countries. [PDF]
Abstract Conservation translocations are a well‐known conservation tool used to reverse the effects of local population extinctions and restore ecosystems. Compared with mammals and birds, plants are underrepresented in translocation programs, and little is known about the potential taxonomic and phylogenetic biases of plant translocation efforts.

Phylogenetic congruence between subtropical trees and their associated fungi. [PDF]
Recent studies have detected phylogenetic signals in pathogen-host networks for both soil-borne and leaf-infecting fungi, suggesting that pathogenic fungi may track or coevolve with their preferred hosts.

The deepest splits in Chloranthaceae as resolved by chloroplast sequences [PDF]
Evidence from the fossil record, comparative morphology, and molecular phylogenetic analyses indicates that Chloranthaceae are among the oldest lineages of flowering plants alive today. Their four genera (ca.

Fruit structure and systematics of Monimiaceae s.s. (Laurales) [PDF]
Fruit structure (anatomy) was studied in 27 species of 15 genera of Monimiaceae s.s . Almost all have apocarpous gynoecia, with the carpels more or less surrounded by a floral cup. The fruitlets are presented on the opened floral cup, which, depending on its pre- and post-floral development, differentially contributes to the attractive part of the ...
