TLDR
The shared possession of orthotropous ovules supports the molecular phylogenetic placement of Maundia as sister to a large clade including Potamogetonaceae and related families and its segregation as a separate family is plausible.About:

TL;DR: Ancestral‐state reconstructions support four convergent losses of a functional NADH dehydrogenase complex in Alismatales, including a single loss in Tofieldiaceae, and investigates the molecular evolution of plastid NADH dehydration, a large enzymatic complex that may play a role in photooxidative stress responses.

Meristic changes in flowering plants: How flowers play with numbers
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that meristic change in the flower depends on the relative size proportion of preexisting outer whorls versus the flower meristem: a reduction of the size of outer perianth organs and valvate aestivation is correlated with an increase in merism.

Results from an online survey of family delimitation in angiosperms and ferns: recommendations to the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group for thorny problems in plant classification
Maarten J. M. Christenhusz,Maarten J. M. Christenhusz,Maria S. Vorontsova,Michael F. Fay,Mark W. Chase,Mark W. Chase +5 more
TL;DR: The Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG) started with ordinal relationships for angiosperm families and later came to concentrate more on issues surrounding family delimitation, generally taking a conservative approach (favouring lumping over splitting when choices were otherwise fairly evenly balanced).
Journal ArticleDOI
A developmental study of pollen dyads and notes on floral development in Scheuchzeria (Alismatales: Scheuchzeriaceae)
TL;DR: Developmental data did not reveal any possible aperture sites in Scheuchzeria, favours the hypothesis of complete loss and subsequent regain of apertures in the course of evolution of the ‘tepaloid clade’ of Alismatales.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vegetative morphology and anatomy of Maundia (Maundiaceae: Alismatales) and patterns of peripheral bundle orientation in angiosperm leaves with three-dimensional venation
Anna G. Platonova,Margarita V. Remizowa,Barbara G. Briggs,Sabine von Mering,I.E. Lock,Dmitry D. Sokoloff +5 more
TL;DR: The anatomy of the leaves, rhizomes and roots of Maundia remained unknown and is studied here and expresses homoplastic similarities between Maundiaceae and Aponogetonaceae.

An update of the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group classification for the orders and families of flowering plants: APG II
TL;DR: A revised and updated classification for the families of the flowering plants is provided in this paper, which includes Austrobaileyales, Canellales, Gunnerales, Crossosomatales and Celastrales.

TL;DR: This issue contains the concluding instalment on Richard Owen and the Dinosauria, where Owen would view with incredulity the authors' present day obsession with this group of extinct monsters.
