A new subfamily classification of the leguminosae based on a taxonomically comprehensive phylogeny
- N. Azani, M. Babineau, +94 authors E. Zimmerman
- Biology
- 1 February 2017
The classification of the legume family proposed here addresses the long-known non-monophyly of the traditionally recognised subfamily Caesalpinioideae, by recognising six robustly supported… Expand

PREMISE OF THE STUDY
Apocarpy (i.e., free carpels) is considered to be the basal condition for ovary development in angiosperms. Yet it only occurs in 10% of angiosperm species, of which another 10%… Expand
Floral ontogeny in Dipterygeae (Fabaceae) reveals new insights into one of the earliest branching tribes in papilionoid legumes
- V. G. Leite, V. Mansano, S. P. Teixeira
- Biology
- 1 April 2014
Flowers of Dipterygeae (Fabaceae, Papilionoideae) exhibit an unusual petaloid calyx. The two adaxial sepals are large and petaloid, and the three abaxial sepals form a three-toothed lobe. The goal of… Expand
