Flower morphology and plant-bee pollinator interactions are related to stamen dimorphism in Melastomataceae.

Plant biology, 2021
Approximately 20,000 species of flowering plant offer mainly pollen to their pollinators, generally bees. Stamen dimorphism, a floral trait commonly present in some pollen flowers, is thought to be associated with exclusive pollen provision for highly ...

Early Records of Melastomataceae from the Middle–Late Paleocene Rain Forests of South America Conflict with Laurasian Origins

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL PLANT SCIENCES, 2021
Premise of research. Melastomataceae are a diverse and primarily tropical family with a particularly sparse fossil record. Various biogeographic interpretations based on phylogenies, extant distribution, and a limited fossil record have placed the origin
