The genome sequence of petty spurge, Euphorbia peplus L. (Euphorbiaceae) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]
We present a genome assembly from a specimen of Euphorbia peplus (petty spurge; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Malpighiales; Euphorbiaceae). The genome sequence has a total length of 277.10 megabases.

Phylogenomics of the Flowering Plant Clade Malpighiales
The angiosperm order Malpighiales includes \(\sim 16,000\) species and constitutes up to 40% of the understory tree diversity in tropical rain forests. Despite remarkable progress in angiosperm phylogenetics during the last 20 years, relationships within

Petiole anatomical features in Salix and some of its relatives in the family Salicaceae [PDF]
The classification of the genus Salix is troubled by the intra-specific flexibility and diversity of the morphological features. The aim was to prepare a comparative description of petiole anatomy of 23 species of Salix, in addition to two species of ...

The Loss of the Inverted Repeat in the Putranjivoid Clade of Malpighiales [PDF]
The typical plastid genome (plastome) of photosynthetic angiosperms comprises a pair of Inverted Repeat regions (IRs), which separate a Large Single Copy region (LSC) from a Small Single Copy region (SSC). The independent losses of IRs have been documented in only a few distinct plant lineages.

Plastome Structural Conservation and Evolution in the Clusioid Clade of Malpighiales [PDF]
AbstractThe clusioid clade of Malpighiales is comprised of five families: Bonnetiaceae, Calophyllaceae, Clusiaceae, Hypericaceae and Podostemaceae. Recent studies have found the plastome structure of Garcinia mangostana L. from Clusiaceae was conserved, while plastomes of five riverweed species from Podostemaceae showed significant structural ...

The evolutionary fate of rpl32 and rps16 losses in the Euphorbia schimperi (Euphorbiaceae) plastome
Gene transfers from mitochondria and plastids to the nucleus are an important process in the evolution of the eukaryotic cell. Plastid (pt) gene losses have been documented in multiple angiosperm lineages and are often associated with functional ...

Non-dispersive phloem-protein bodies (NPBs) of Populus trichocarpa consist of a SEOR protein and do not respond to cell wounding and Ca2+ [PDF]
Differentiating sieve elements in the phloem of angiosperms produce abundant phloem-specific proteins before their protein synthesis machinery is degraded.

Not a shrinking violet: Pollen morphology of Violaceae (Malpighiales) [PDF]
Abstract Pollen morphology of Violaceae, a family of c. 825–900 species, has been little studied to date, with the exception of Viola. In this paper, we present the results of a survey of the pollen of representative species of 16 of the 23 genera of Violaceae, examined using light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and selectively transmission ...
