Vessel origins in Nymphaeaceae: Euryale and Victoria

TL;DR: Vessel origins in Nymphaeaceae are important in illustrating that there may be multiple vessel origins in dicotyledons, and Euryale satisfies one criterion for the presence of vessel and Barclaya satisfies another (perforations in end walls), whereas Barclaya and Victoria satisfies both.

Wood evolution: Baileyan trends and Functional traits in the fossil record

TL;DR: In this article, the authors revisited questions about changes in the incidences of functional wood anatomical traits through geologic time and compared the similarities of these traits in the fossil record with modern wood anatomical diversity patterns to test classical (Baileyan) and more recent ecophyletic hypotheses of xylem evolution.

Trichome complement of Turnera and Piriqueta (Turneraceae)

TL;DR: The indumentum of Piriqueta and Turnera is made up of nine different types of trichomes, which broadly can be divided into glandular and non-glandular, and simple unicellular hairs are the most widespread type, frequently being found in combination with other trichome.

Wood Anatomy and the Development of Interxylary Phloem of Ipomoea hederifolia Linn. (Convolvulaceae)

TL;DR: In Ipomoea hederifolia Linn, stems increase in thickness by forming successive rings of cambia, and thick-walled parenchyma cells formed at the beginning of secondary growth underwent dedifferentiation and led to the formation of phloem derivatives.

Fluorescence shell: a novel view of sclereid morphology with the Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope.

TL;DR: Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy was used to observe sclereids from stems of Avicennia germinans and from fruits of two species of pear, resulting in a “fluorescence shell” image, meaning the cell wall did not stain all the way through but instead only at the inner and outer wall surfaces, including the edges of ramiform pits.
