Journal ArticleDOI
Structural and developmental diversity in Podostemaceae (river-weeds)
TL;DR: The structural categories of typical flowering plants are transcended in the Podostemaceae due to developmental changes and saltational evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogeny of the clusioid clade (Malpighiales): Evidence from the plastid and mitochondrial genomes
Brad R. Ruhfel,Volker Bittrich,Claudia Petean Bove,Mats G. Gustafsson,C. Thomas Philbrick,Rolf Rutishauser,Zhenxiang Xi,Charles C. Davis +7 more
TL;DR: This phylogeny will form the foundation for the future work investigating the biogeography of tropical angiosperms that exhibit Gondwanan distributions and is the first well-resolved, taxon-rich phylogeny of the clusioid clade.
Journal ArticleDOI
Developmental Genetics and Morphological Evolution of Flowering Plants, Especially Bladderworts (Utricularia): Fuzzy Arberian Morphology Complements Classical Morphology
Rolf Rutishauser,Brigitte Isler +1 more
TL;DR: This review compares new developmental models on flowering and other vascular plants with evolutionary hypotheses formulated by Agnes Arber and like-minded botanists and focuses on the FAM Approach, which complements Cla ssical Plant M orphology (ClaM Approach), which is the traditional approach in botany.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Fundamental Relevance of Morphology and Morphogenesis to Plant Research
Rolf Sattler,Rolf Rutishauser +1 more
TL;DR: Plant morphology, including morphogenesis, remains relevant to practically all disciplines of plant biology such as molecular genetics, physiology, ecology, evolutionary biology and systematics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Developmental patterns of leaves in Podostemaceae compared with more typical flowering plants: saltational evolution and fuzzy morphology
TL;DR: The developmental morphology of compound leaves is described comparing Apium repens (Apiaceae) with less typical angiosperms ("misfits") of the rheophyte family Podostemaceae, especially Marathrum rubrum, Mourera fluviatilis, and Tristicha trifaria.
