Describe the orders under the paleodicots (Laurales, Magnoliales and Piperales) in terms of plant habit, reproductive type (monoecius/dioecius), leaf type, leaf shape, floral characteristics, fruit morphology, seed size/shape, and other distinct feature.
The work of plant taxonomists of the 20th century who identified /established the different families of flowering plants based mainly on morphological and anatomical details is still valued and being used today, despite the general acceptance of the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG) as a classification system for the flowering plants. Why is it so?
Now you will practice identifying the phylogenetic tree that corresponds to a given character table. The following table shows three key events in the evolution of plants: the development of vascular tissue, the development of flowers, and the development of seeds. Plant groups Vascular Tissue Flowers Seeds Gymnosperms 1 0 1 Mosses 0 0 0 Ferns 1 0 0 Angiosperms 1 1 1 Select the phylogenetic tree that correctly represents the data in the character table.
