Pollen development in Mill. (Annonaceae). Implications for the evolution of aggregated pollen [PDF]
In most flowering plants, pollen is dispersed as monads. However, aggregated pollen shedding in groups of four or more pollen grains has arisen independently several times during angiosperm evolution.

Carpels in Brasenia (Cabombaceae) are Completely Ascidiate Despite a Long Stigmatic Crest [PDF]
• Background and Aims The morphological structure of anthetic carpels of Brasenia (Cabombaceae), a member of the phylogenetically basal ANITA grade, has not been studied before. The carpel has a long stigmatic crest on the ventral side and could give the

The stepwise rise of angiosperm‐dominated terrestrial ecosystems
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 ...

Patterns and Drivers of Phylogenetic Beta Diversity in the Forests and Savannas of Africa
ABSTRACT Aim Studying beta diversity, or the variation in species composition among communities, can give insights into plant community assembly over space and time. If different biomes show contrasting large‐scale beta‐diversity patterns, this can indicate divergent evolutionary histories or ecological processes that then drive species turnover among ...
