Complete plastome sequences from Bertholletia excelsa and 23 related species yield informative markers for Lecythidaceae. [PDF]

Appl Plant Sci, 2018
Premise of the Study The tropical tree family Lecythidaceae has enormous ecological and economic importance in the Amazon basin. Lecythidaceae species can be difficult to identify without molecular data, however, and phylogenetic relationships within and among the most diverse genera are poorly resolved.

Interaction between floral rewards and floral symmetry shapes diversification dynamics in Amazonian trees. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Floral zygomorphy, or monosymmetry, is thought to have a positive effect on the diversification rates of angiosperms, but its true impact is still an open topic. Given the controversy surrounding this matter, our study evaluates whether rewards such as nectar and pollen produced by floral structures evolve in correlation with floral symmetry ...
