Journal ArticleDOI
A phylogenetic study of the Plantaginaceae
TL;DR: In a study based on morphological, embryological and chemical data of the Plantaginaceae, within the subclass Sympetalae or Asteridae, the superorder Lamianae is shown to be monophyletic, however, it was not possible to reconstruct the phylogeny within Lamiae or to find a sister-group for the monophylettic Plantago – Hydrostachyaceae, which is considered unacceptable.

Ultrastructure of stomatal development in Arabidopsis (Brassicaceae) leaves.
Liming Zhao,Fred D. Sack +1 more
TL;DR: Analysis of cell wall patterns indicates that meristemoids can divide asymmetrically a variable number of times, and this identification of stages in stomatal development in wild-type Arabidopsis provides a foundation for the analysis of relevant genes and of mutants defective inStomatal patterning, cell specification, and differentiation.

Histochemical Localization of Citral Accumulation in Lemongrass Leaves (Cymbopogon citratus (DC.) Stapf., Poaceae)
Efraim Lewinsohn,Nativ Dudai,Yaakov Tadmor,Irena Katzir,Uzi Ravid,Eli Putievsky,Daniel M. Joel +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that citral accumulation takes place in individual oil cells within the leaf tissues, and that this takes place adjacent to non-photosynthetic tissue, and between vascular bundles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogenetic relationships within the Gentianales based on NDHF and RBCL sequences, with particular reference to the Loganiaceae.
TL;DR: Phylogenetic relationships in the Gentianales with focus on Loganiaceae sensu lato are evaluated using parsimony analyses of nucleotide sequence data from the plastid genes rbcL and ndhF, which indicate that the family Rubiaceae forms the sister group to the successively nested Gentianaceae, Apocynaceae, and Logania, all of which are well supported.

From proto-Kranz to C4 Kranz: building the bridge to C4 photosynthesis
TL;DR: This review examines how the specialized "Kranz" anatomy of C4 photosynthesis evolved from C3 ancestors, and proposes a critical first stage of the evolution of both the C2 and C4 forms of Kranz anatomy.
