TLDR
It is argued that several approaches utilizing pollen morphological data for the classification of the Acanthaceae family can be identified and some of the Lindau pollen types are shown to have an indirect relationship to Lindau's own classification.

Journal ArticleDOI

Higher-level systematics of acanthaceae determined by chloroplast dna sequences

TL;DR: The ndhF analyses demonstrate that Elytraria and Thunbergia are successive sister taxa to all Acanthaceae taxa that have retinacula and explosive fruits and demonstrate that taxa with both retinACula and Explosive fruits can be subdivided further into two monophyletic groups.

Phylogenetic Relationships within Ruellieae (Acanthaceae) and a Revised Classification

TL;DR: A solid phylogenetic hypothesis of relationships within Ruellieae contributes to progress in biology in three important ways: it enables better assessment of trait homologies and thus characters upon which genera are delimited, it contributes to the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation’s initiative to document plant biodiversity, and it facilitates cross-family comparative evolutionary analyses.

Delimitation and Infra-generic Classification of Barleria (Acanthaceae)

TL;DR: A new classification of Barleria is proposed, dividing the genus into 2 subgenera and seven sections, with the basic configuration of the corolla, structure of the stigma, composition of the androecium, and the number of seeds among the most important sources of taxonomically useful characters.

Structure and Development of the Flowers in Mendoncia, Pseudocalyx, and Thunbergia (Acanthaceae) and Their Systematic Implications

TL;DR: Floral structure and development of Mendoncia, Pseudocalyx, and Thunbergia strongly suggest that these genera form a natural group.

Principles of numerical taxonomy

TL;DR: The authors continued the story of psychology with added research and enhanced content from the most dynamic areas of the field, such as cognition, gender and diversity studies, neuroscience and more, while at the same time using the most effective teaching approaches and learning tools.

Edward O. Wiley
- 01 Jul 1982 - 
TL;DR: This paper presents a systematic literature review of taxation alternatives to the PHYLOGENETIC system and some of the methods used, as well as some new ideas, that arose during this review.

Outgroup analysis and parsimony

TL;DR: Methods that use outgroups in the reconstruction of phylogeny are described and evaluated by the criterion of parsimony, and algorithms and rules are presented that find the most parsimonious estimates of ancestral states for binary and multistate characters when outgroup relationships are well resolved.
