A Molecular Phylogeny of Costaceae (Zingiberales) [PDF]
The phylogenetic relationships of Costaceae, a tropical monocotyledonous family sister to the gingers (Zingiberaceae), were investigated with a combination of two chloroplast loci (the trnL-F locus, including the trnL intron, the 3'trnL exon, and the trnL-F intergenic spacer, and the trnK locus, including the trnK intron and the matK coding region) and

Duckweeds: Model organisms for research on plant sterols and steroids. [PDF]
Duckweeds (Lemnaceae), the fastest‐growing angiosperms and promising vegan protein source, offer a powerful model to address key questions in plant physiology. This article highlights their potential for dissecting the biosynthesis and function of phytosterols, sterol conjugates, brassinosteroids, and specialized steroidal metabolites, such as ...
