Tinkering with transcription factor networks for developmental robustness of Ranunculales flowers [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2016 The flowers of core eudicots and monocots are generally determined by the number of floral organs they produce, and their developmental set-up tolerates little change from the bauplan once the floral primordium is initiated. Many species outside the core eudicots and monocots are more plastic in the number of floral organs they produce.

Comparative floral development in Lardizabalaceae (Ranunculales) [PDF]
Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2011 Abstract Ovules development and structure of 6 species of 5 genera in Lardizabalaceae were studied under SEM and LM. Ovule morphology show diversity in the family: anatropous ( Sinofranchetia and Decaisnea ) or campylotropous ( Sargentodoxa , Akebia and Holboellia ); ovule number is 1 ( Sargentodoxa ) to 20 (even up to 180 in Akebia and ...

Evolution of Perianth and Stamen Characteristics with Respect to Floral Symmetry in Ranunculales [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2007 Floral symmetry presents two main states in angiosperms, namely polysymmetry and monosymmetry. Monosymmetry is thought to have evolved several times independently from polysymmetry, possibly in co-adaptation with specialized pollinators. Monosymmetry commonly refers to the perianth, even though associated androecium modifications have been reported ...

The complete chloroplast genome of Vancouveria planipetala, with implication for the phylogeny of Ranunculales [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018 Vancouveria planipetala (Berberidaceae) is a perennial herb which has high ornamental and ecological values. In this study, we assembled the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of V. planipetala. The whole cp genome of V. planipetala is 156,871 bp in length,

The draft genome of the endangered, relictual plant Kingdonia uniflora (Circaeasteraceae, Ranunculales) reveals potential mechanisms and perils of evolutionary specialization [PDF]
Plant Systematics and Evolution, 2020 The flower organs of Circaeaster are spiral in origin. The primordia of the tepals, stamens and carpels are almost the same in shape and size in early development. Carpel conduplication takes place only in the middle part of the carpel. The basal part of the carpel differentiates into a short stalk and the upper part into the style and the stigma ...

The genome of Corydalis reveals the evolution of benzylisoquinoline alkaloid biosynthesis in Ranunculales. [PDF]
Plant J, 2022 SUMMARYSpecies belonging to the order Ranunculales have attracted much attention because of their phylogenetic position as a sister group to all other eudicot lineages and their ability to produce unique yet diverse benzylisoquinoline alkaloids (BIAs). The Papaveraceae family in Ranunculales is often used as a model system for studying BIA biosynthesis.

Resolving phylogenetic reconstruction in Menispermaceae (Ranunculales) using fossils and a novel statistical test [PDF]
TAXON, 2007 Menispermaceae (Moonseed family) are an important family within the basal eudicots. This study is a first attempt to infer phylogenetic relationships within Menispermaceae, focusing on morphological data and using cladistic methodology. Sampling included genera from all the eight tribes usually recognized within the family, and was representative of ...

Complete plastome sequencing of both living species of Circaeasteraceae (Ranunculales) reveals unusual rearrangements and the loss of the ndh gene family [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2017 Background Among the 13 families of early-diverging eudicots, only Circaeasteraceae (Ranunculales), which consists of the two monotypic genera Circaeaster and Kingdonia, lacks a published complete plastome sequence. In addition, the phylogenetic position
