Leaf Vascular Pattern Formation.
Timothy Nelson,Nancy G. Dengler +1 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes the vascular patterns and their ontogenies in dicots and monocots, referring extensively but not exclusively to Arabidopsis and maize as examples, and discusses a variety of models that seek to explain vascular pattern formation.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Updated Classification of the Class Magnoliopsida (“Angiospermae”)
TL;DR: The present classification of extant flowering plants (Magnoliopsida) updates and revises those presented previously by bringing together the vast majority of new information published since 1999.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elaborate petals and staminodes in eudicots: Diversity, function, and evolution
TL;DR: In this survey of petal and staminode elaborations throughout the eudicots, based on both new studies and a review of the literature, the diversity of such structures and their functions is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A phylogenetic study of the order asterales using one morphological and three molecular data sets
Johannes Lundberg,Kåre Bremer +1 more
TL;DR: Two most parsimonious cladograms are obtained using a data set of 100 characters derived from morphology, anatomy, embryology, chemistry, and karyology, combined with three nucleotide sequence data sets in a phylogenetic analysis of all 12 currently recognized families in the angiosperm order Asterales.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogeny of the Asterales sensu lato based on rbcL sequences with particular reference to the Goodeniaceae
TL;DR: TherbcL gene was sequenced and analyzed cladistically in order to define more precisely the orderAsterales s.l. and to reconstruct the phylogeny of Goodeniaceae, and four groups supported by therbcL data can be distinguished.

Phylogenetics of seed plants: an analysis of nucleotide sequences from the plastid gene rbcL.
TL;DR: Two exploratory parsimony analyses of DNA sequences from 475 and 499 species of seed plants, respectively, representing all major taxonomic groups indicate that rbcL sequence variation contains historical evidence appropriate for phylogenetic analysis at this taxonomic level of sampling.
Journal ArticleDOI
A parsimony analysis of the Asteridae sensu lato based on rbcL sequences.
TL;DR: A parsimony analysis of 156 representative sequences of the Asteridae sensu lato and 28 outgroup sequences was conducted using a two-tiered approach, designed to discover multiple islands of equal parsimony using the heuristic search routine in PAUP.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cladistics and family level classification of the gentianales
TL;DR: Cl cladistic results are presented that show Loganiaceae, sensu lato, to be a paraphyletic group definable only by plesiomorphies, with members showing closest relationships to other families of the Gentianales.
