DOI: 10.1038/s41467-020-15658-2
Abstract: Pseudonectaries, or false nectaries, the glistening structures that resemble nectaries or nectar droplets but do not secrete nectar, show considerable diversity and play important roles in plant-animal interactions. The morphological nature, optical features, molecular underpinnings… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/23818107.2017.1422437
Abstract: Abstract Perianth dimorphism in Nigella damascena (Ranunculaceae) has been documented for four centuries, and its genetic basis started to be studied almost a century ago. Based on herbarium collections, we reconstructed the evolution of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2021.660803
Abstract: Even though petals are homoplastic structures, their identity consistently involves genes of the APETALA3 (AP3) lineage. However, the extent to which the networks downstream of AP3 are conserved in species with petals of different evolutionary… read more here.
