The basal eudicots are a group of 13 related families of flowering plants in four orders: Buxales, Proteales, Ranunculales and Trochodendrales. [1] [a] Like the core eudicots (the rest of the eudicots), they have pollen grains with three colpi (grooves) or other derived structures, [4] and usually have flowers with four or five petals (sometimes multiples of four or five, sometimes reduced or ...
Basal eudicot is an informal name for a paraphyletic group. The core eudicots are a monophyletic group. [11] A 2010 study suggested the core eudicots can be divided into two clades, Gunnerales and a clade called Pentapetalae, comprising all the remaining core eudicots. [12] The Pentapetalae can be then divided into three clades: [citation needed]
The top level category for the Eudicots — a clade of angiosperms (flowering plants) in the APG IV system (2016).; Most entries should be put in one of the subcategories of the clade (orders, families, genera and species)., but a small number of articles relating to orders, families or genera too small to have their own categories are put directly here.
This category should contain only articles about the families of eudicots, when the articles are at the scientific name, or redirects from the scientific name in the case of monotypic taxa or articles at the English name.
There are 27 families of flowering plants whose earliest ancestors diverged from what became the two most prominent groups of flowering plants, the eudicots and monocots. [1] [a] They are quite diverse, with woody and non-woody plants, evergreen and deciduous shrubs and trees, and plants that grow in soil, in water and on other plants.
In phylogenetic nomenclature, the Pentapetalae are a large group of eudicots that were informally referred to as the "core eudicots" in some papers on angiosperm phylogenetics. [2] They comprise an extremely large and diverse group accounting for about 65% of the species richness of the angiosperms , with wide variability in habit , morphology ...
