Journal ArticleDOI
Multigene analyses identify the three earliest lineages of extant flowering plants
TL;DR: Combined phylogenetic analyses of five genes that represent all three plant genomes from a broad sampling of angiosperms find that Amborella, a monotypic, vessel-less dioecious shrub from New Caledonia, was clearly identified as the first branch ofAngiosperm evolution, followed by the Nymphaeales (water lillies), and then a clade of woody vines comprising Schisandraceae and Austrobaileyaceae.

Calcification in Plants
TL;DR: A great deal of information is available from the literature as to the location and appearance of calcium deposits in plants, but surprisingly little can be found about the mechanism of calcification, and still less about the ultrastructural features of the event.

Hydraulic safety margins and embolism reversal in stems and leaves: why are conifers and angiosperms so different?
TL;DR: Conifers' ability to rapidly repair embolisms may rely on having nearby parenchyma cells, which could explain the need for greater safety margins in conifer wood as compared to angiosperms.

Novel aspects of the biology of Chrysomelidae.
TL;DR: It seems that most of the modern host-plant associations were established, at least, in the late Mesozoic to early Cenozoic, and stasis seems to be the general rule of the chrysomelid fossil record.
