Phylogenetic relationships of angiosperm fossil flowers, and their relevance to investigate floral evolution
Project summary:
This project seeks to integrate well-preserved fossil flowers into phylogenetic frameworks combined with extant taxa, with the purpose of investigating the time of origin and diversification of all angiosperm families, as well as broad-patterns of floral evolution informed by the combination of fossils and extant taxa.
