Convergent evolution in calyptrate flowers of Syzygieae (Myrtaceae)
Abstract Shedding a fused perianth as a calyptra at anthesis is a trait that has evolved independently multiple times in angiosperm evolutionary history. However, calyptras do not correspond to homologous structures in all cases. Here, we describe calyptra development in the evolutionary context of Myrtaceae tribe Syzygieae. We use scanning...Vasconcelos, Thais N C ; Lucas, Eve J ; Conejero, Maria ; Giaretta, Augusto ; Prenner, Gerhard
