Journal ArticleDOI
Leuco-anthocyanins. 3. The nature and systematic distribution of tannins in dicotyledonous plants.
E. C. Bate-Smith,C. R. Metcalfe +1 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the histological reaction for tannins is most commonly due to leuco-anthocyanins, for although these substances are of very widespread occurrence amongst the Dicotyledons, some families are highly tanniniferous, in others little or no tANNin has been detected, and a third group of families have given mixed results.

Phylogenetic evidence for the herbaceous origin of angiosperms
TL;DR: The sum of ancestral character states suggests that the protoangiosperm was a diminutive, rhizomatous to scrambling perennial herb, with small, simple flowers.

Integrating Early Cretaceous fossils into the phylogeny of living angiosperms: Magnoliidae and eudicots
James A. Doyle,Peter K. Endress +1 more
TL;DR: A morphological dataset for living basal angiosperms (including basal eudicots and monocots) is used to assess the most parsimonious positions of early angiosperm fossils on cladograms of Recent plants, using constraint trees that represent the current range of hypotheses on higher‐level relationships.

Structure and function of wood
TL;DR: The objective of this chapter is to review the basic biological structure of wood and provide a basis for interpreting its properties in an engineering context to better understand the strengths and limitations it presents as a material.

The Evolution of Araliaceae: A Phylogenetic Analysis Based on ITS Sequences of Nuclear Ribosomal DNA
TL;DR: Phylogenetic analyses of ITS sequence data do not support the widely used traditional division of Araliaceae into three tribes, and topologies suggest that biogeographic radiations into different tropical/subtropical regions and into the north and south temperate regions occurred early in the history of core Arali growers.
