Assembling genomes of non-model plants: A case study with evolutionary insights from Ranunculus (Ranunculaceae). [PDF]
SUMMARY Whereas genome sequencing and assembly technologies are improving, cost can still be prohibitive for plant species with large, complex genomes. As a consequence, genomics work on some taxa in evolutionarily pivotal positions in the vascular plant tree of life has been hampered.

A cornucopia of diversity-Ranunculales as a model lineage. [PDF]
Abstract The Ranunculales are a hyperdiverse lineage in many aspects of their phenotype, including growth habit, floral and leaf morphology, reproductive mode, and specialized metabolism. Many Ranunculales species, such as opium poppy and goldenseal, have a high medicinal value.

Comparative floral development in Lardizabalaceae (Ranunculales) [PDF]
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 ...
