    2. The Oak, the Daisy, and the Pine

    Because oaks and daisies are both flowering plants (angiosperms), they share a much more recent common ancestor with each other than either of them does with a pine tree.

    Let's have a look at the massive evolutionary splits in the plant kingdom:

    1. The Great Split: Angiosperms vs. Gymnosperms

    About 300 million years ago, plants split into two radically different evolutionary lineages:

    #Gymnosperms: These are the ancient seed plants that don't produce flowers (like conifers, ginkgos, and cycads). A pine tree is a gymnosperm.

    #Angiosperms: These are the younger, highly successful evolutionary line of flowering plants.

  11. An elaborate #genomeanalysis shows that pumpkins and roses share a close genetic bond. Such information is of great importance for the breeding improvement of our #crops: go.tum.de/955430

  12. In a fascinating new JIPB Invited Expert Review, Guojin Zhang and Hong Ma explore nuclear #phylogenomics of #angiosperms and share insights into their relationships and #evolution. #PlantScience #OpenAccess #botany onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10

  13. A new preprint from the lab on the distribution of ancient whole-genome duplications across the angiosperm phylogeny. Great work led by PhD student Michael McKibben! We used a variety of methods and different species trees to infer and place WGDs across the phylogeny. Overall, similar results to our past work, but species tree had a large impact on WGD inferences. Check it out here:

  14. How do seeds travel from one place to another? Why do #flowers have different colors and shapes, and how do some turn into fruits? How did these two types of reproduction evolve? And why are seeds and flowers important to plants, animals, and humans? 🌹🌸💐🌺🌻

  15. > Nicobariodendron sleumeri, the only member of its genus, continues to be an enigma. It is a small tree from the Andaman and Nicobar Islands of India. Little is known of it and it has never been sampled for DNA.

    seems like a grad student thesis waiting to happen, if that. #openproblems #india #biology #angiosperms
  16. Aufsteigt aus des Gartens Tiefe
    Der blüh'nden Magnolien Duft
    Ein Hauch, betäubend, als schliefe
    Darin des Südens Luft;
    ...
    Könnt' ich euch Sprache verleihen,
    Ihr schimmernden Kelche, ihr,
    Ihr würdet vor Sehnsucht aufschreien,
    Vor Wonne schluchzen, gleich mir!
