Gynostemium structure and relationships of theCorallorhizinae (Orchidaceae: Epidendroideae)
@article{Freudenstein2004GynostemiumSA, title={Gynostemium structure and relationships of theCorallorhizinae (Orchidaceae: Epidendroideae)}, author={John V Freudenstein}, journal={Plant Systematics and Evolution}, year={2004}, volume={193}, pages={1-19} }
Several types of pollinium stalk are present in theCorallorhizinae. Govenia has a cellular epidermal pollinium stalk, whileTipularia has a unique stipe that results from prolongation and detachment of the rostellum.Dactylostalix andEphippianthus have no stipe, but do have a detachable viscidium.Aplectrum, Corallorhiza, Cremastra, andOreorchis have hamuli. Cladistic analysis of morphological characters suggests that these four genera form a “core”Corallorhizinae, and are sister group to a clade…

Variation and evolutionary transformation of some characters of the pollinarium and pistil in Epidendroideae (Orchidaceae)
- BiologyPlant Systematics and Evolution
- 2019
The results suggest that the common ancestor of Epidendroideae had a complete pollinarium, formed probably of four juxtaposed granular pollinia without suture, bearing caudicle, tegular stipe and viscidium, but several early transformations occurred during the Epid endocrinological diversification.
Evolutionary analysis of pollinaria morphology of subtribe Aeridinae (Orchidaceae)
- Biology
- 2006
Pollinarium morphology endorses monophyly Trichoglottis and Phalaenopsis alliances and transformation of the stipe and viscidium shapes in the subtribe showed that these characters are much useful in determining relationships in the Subtribe Aeridinae than those of pollinium.
Anther development in tribe Epidendreae: orchids with contrasting pollination syndromes
- Biology, MedicinePeerJ

Observations indicate that the position of Chysis in subtribe Bletiinae needs revision based on differences in a number floral, and in particular of anther characters; and that Coelia only shares the early anther incumbency with Calypsoinae members, but not the rest of floral and antherCharacters.

Analysis of variation in anther and pollinium orientation in Epidendroideae and Vanilloideae using anatomical sections of columns at successive ontogenetic stages and related the observed changes to the final anther morphology to reexamine the homology hypotheses for these characters suggest heterochronic changes in these characters.
A New Orchid Genus, Danxiaorchis, and Phylogenetic Analysis of the Tribe Calypsoeae

Based on the results of the phylogenetic analyses, Calypsoeae, under which the new orchid is classified, represents an independent lineage in the Epidendroideae subfamily, and is a monophyletic tribe consisting of eight well-supported clades with 13 subclades (genera), which are all in agreement with the phytogeography of Calyp soeae.

The structure and function of orchid pollinaria
- Environmental SciencePlant Systematics and Evolution
- 2004
Pollinaria ensure that large pollen loads are deposited on the stigma, thus enabling the fertilization of the large numbers of ovules in the flowers of Orchidaceae, and ensure efficient removal from the anther, minimal pollen wastage during transit, and a high probability of deposition on conspecific stigmas.
