The evolution of floral biology in basal angiosperms.
In basal angiosperms (including ANITA grade, magnoliids, Choranthaceae, Ceratophyllaceae) almost all bisexual flowers are dichogamous (with male and female functions more or less separated in time), and nearly 100 per cent of those are protogynous (with female function before male function). Movements of floral parts and differential early abscission of stamens in the male phase are variously a...
متن کاملThe evolution of wind pollination in angiosperms
Theresa M. Culley* Stephen G. Weller Ann K. Sakai Dept of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of California–Irvine, Irvine, CA 92697, USA. *e-mail: [email protected] Although much emphasis has been placed on specialist pollination systems, attention is shifting towards systems in which plants are visited by a variety of pollinators [1,2]. Until recently, examples of generalist pollinatio...
متن کاملTrends in Pollination Biology
An effusion of books and articles on pollination biology has appeared recently, showing a renewed interest in this area of reproductive biology that has strong significance for the continuous evolution of seed plants. Consequently, a comprehensive review is not possible in this paper; topics have been selected and a restricted number of examples given. New findings in "classical" pollination sc...
متن کاملA probable pollination mode before angiosperms: Eurasian, long-proboscid scorpionflies.
The head and mouthpart structures of 11 species of Eurasian scorpionflies represent three extinct and closely related families during a 62-million-year interval from the late Middle Jurassic to the late Early Cretaceous. These taxa had elongate, siphonate (tubular) proboscides and fed on ovular secretions of extinct gymnosperms. Five potential ovulate host-plant taxa co-occur with these insects...
متن کاملStatus of Anita and Anita-lite
We describe a new experiment to search for neutrinos with energies above 3 × 10 18 eV based on the observation of short duration radio pulses that are emitted from neutrino-initiated cascades. The primary objective of the ANtarctic Impulse Transient Antenna (ANITA) mission is to measure the flux of GreisenZatsepin-Kuzmin (GZK) neutrinos and search for neutrinos from Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN)...
