of course, there are further problems with species, and for many biologists strict monophyly is a less important criterion at this level (see much of the discussion in Hörandl 2006). Genera can often be pegged to above the level at which hybridization ... Given the increasing support for the outlines of angiosperm phylogeny,

According to the foremost authority on angiosperm diversity and phylogeny Dr. R.F. Thorne (The Botanical Review Volume 58: 225-348, 1992), the total number of different flowering plant families is 437. This great number of families is subdivided into 400 subfamilies, 12,650 genera and 233,885 species.

The rapid diversification and ecological dominance of the flowering plants beg the question "Why are there so many angiosperm species and why are they so successful?" A number of equally plausible hypotheses have been advanced in ...

Direct measurements of intervessel pit membrane hydraulic resistance in two angiosperm tree species1 ... The area-specific resistance of pit membranes (rmem) was higher than modeled or measured values obtained previously for hardwood species, with rmem of 5.24 x 103 MPa·s·m–1 for Fraxinus and 2.56 x 103 MPa·s·m–1...

In two species of largely self-fertilizing annual plants, minimal estimates of such mutation rates were found to be 0.24 to 0.87 per sporophyte genome per generation, but confidence intervals exceeded 1.0 in each of the four populations.
