Angiosperms, also known as flowering plants, represent the most diverse group of seed plants, and their origin and evolution have long been a central question in plant evolutionary biology.

International Journal of Plant Sciences, Vol. 180, No. 2 (FEBRUARY 2019), pp. 93-127 (35 pages) Premise of research. Small angiosperm fossils are diverse in Early Cretaceous mesofossil floras from ...

An international team of researchers, including three New York Botanical Garden (NYBG) scientists, used genetic code from more than 9,500 flowering plant species to create the most detailed ...

For decades, scientists have relied on tree rings to estimate how long trees can live. But new research suggests that this widely used method may have been underestimating the lifespan of many ...

Elucidating the dynamic distribution of organismal lineages has been central to biology since the nineteenth century, yet the difficulty of combining biogeographic methods with shifts in habitat ...
