Progress and problems in the assessment of flower morphology in higher-level systematics [PDF]
Floral features used for characterization of higher-level angiosperm taxa (families, orders, and above) are assessed following a comparison of earlier (precladistic/premolecular) and current classifications.

Significance Statement Parrotia is a Tertiary relict “living fossil” tree genus with two extant species (P. subaequalis and P. persica) exhibiting a disjunct distribution between East Asia and West Asia. Despite their long evolutionary history, the genomic basis of adaptation and speciation in this “living fossil” tree genus remain largely unexplored ...

Abstract Premise Within the Malpighiaceae, the Bunchosia clade is distinctive for its significant habit variation and abundance of different vascular variants. However, the processes underlying the diversification of the vascular system over time and the ontogenetic events involved remain unclear.

First steps towards a floral structural characterization of the major rosid subclades [PDF]
A survey of our own comparative studies on several larger clades of rosids and over 1400 original publications on rosid flowers shows that floral structural features support to various degrees the supraordinal relationships in rosids proposed by ...

Review of larval food plant associations of the Agaristinae (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in Australia
Abstract The Australian Agaristinae comprises a small group of predominantly diurnal moths with aposematic larvae and adults that are assumed to be unpalatable to most predators. A critical review of the larval food plants of this subfamily based on published records in the literature, together with unpublished records, is presented.

Floral and fruit morphology of the early eudicot Ranunculaecarpus quinquecarpellatus Samyl. is described based on details from sectioning and microscopy of the permineralized type material from the Albian Buor-Kemyus Formation of the Zyryanka coal basin.

Synorganisation without organ fusion in the flowers of Geranium robertianum (Geraniaceae) and its not so trivial obdiplostemony [PDF]
Background and Aims Synorganisation of floral organs, an important means in angiosperm flower evolution, is mostly realized by congenital or post-genital organ fusion.

Increasing variability in resource supply over time disrupts plant–pollinator interactions
Abstract Insect–plant interactions are key determinants of plant and insect fitness, providing important ecosystem services around the world—including the Arctic region. Recently, it has been suggested that climate warming causes rifts between flower and pollinator phenology.
