Flowering plants (angiosperms) are the largest, most diversified, and most successful major lineage of green plants, with ~330,000 known species. In the past decade, the accelerated development of ...

Flowering plants (angiosperms) underpin most terrestrial ecosystems and human agriculture, yet their deep evolutionary history has long eluded complete resolution. Traditional phylogenetic studies, ...

A rooted phylogenetic tree of functionally characterized TPSs in angiosperms. The tree encompasses TPS protein sequences from 15 eudicots and 9 monocots. The five previously defined TPS subfamilies (a ...

Machine generated contents note: Preface; 1. Introduction to angiosperms; 2. The nature of the angiosperm fossil record; 3. The environmental context of early angiosperm evolution; 4. Stratigraphic ...

High species diversity within a geographic area may be attributed to either recent rapid speciation in a 'cradle' or the gradual accumulation and preservation of species over time in a 'museum'. China ...

"A compilation of the papers presented at the symposium 'Phytochemistry and angiosperm phylogeny' held on August 15, 1979, at Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, under the primary sponsorship of ...

For decades, scientists have relied on tree rings to estimate how long trees can live. But new research suggests that this widely used method may have been underestimating the lifespan of many ...
