Phenolic metabolism in Sarcandra glabra is mediated by distinct BAHD hydroxycinnamoyltransferases
The Plant Journal, Volume 121, Issue 5, March 2025.Significance Statement Four genes and enzymes involved in the formation of hydroxycinnamoyl esters with shikimic, quinic, hydroxyphenyllactic, and benzoic acids as well as amides with hydroxyanthranilic and d‐amino acids were identified in Sarcandra glabra (Chloranthaceae), placed in a sister clade of the magnoliids.

Growth Form Evolution in Piperales and Its Relevance for Understanding Angiosperm Diversification: An Integrative Approach Combining Plant Architecture, Anatomy, and Biomechanics [PDF]
International Journal of Plant Sciences, 2012 A striking feature of early angiosperm lineages is the variety of life forms and growth forms, which ranges from herbs, aquatic herbs, climbers, and epiphytes to woody shrubs and trees. This morphological and anatomical diversity is arguably one of the factors explaining how angiosperms dominate many ecosystems worldwide.

Is There a Key Primer for Amplification of Core Land Plant DNA Barcode Regions (rbcL and matK)?
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2025.We use in silico PCR to select and measure the amplification capability of primer. We tested 366 and 489 published primers for the rbcL and matK regions, respectively, using sequences from 8463 different land plant species. Our results indicate a set of primers that effectively cover all land plant sequences, particularly for the rbcL region.
