Colleters produce a secretion composed of hydrophilic and/or lipophilic substances which lubricates and protects the shoot apical meristem against biotic and abiotic agents. Little attention has been given to these structures in Clusiaceae.

Embriologia de Pera glabrata (Schott) Poepp. ex Baill. (Peraceae, Malpighiales) [PDF]
Pera is a neotropical genus, currently belonging to Peraceae family. These circumscription was the result of inclusion of Rafflesiaceae family between the old Pereae tribe and all other Euphorbiaceae, wherein Pereae was elevated to the family becoming Euphorbiaceae monophyletic again.

Widespread ancient whole genome duplications in Malpighiales coincide with Eocene global climatic upheaval [PDF]
AbstractAncient whole genome duplications (WGDs) are important in eukaryotic genome evolution, and are especially prominent in plants. Recent genomic studies from large vascular plant clades, including ferns, gymnosperms, and angiosperms suggest that WGDs may represent a crucial mode of speciation.
