Clades

Eudicots and Eudicotyledons are terms introduced by Doyle & Hotton (1991) to refer to a group of flowering plants that had been called "tricolpates" or "non-Magnoliid dicots" by previous authors. Plants are living Organisms belonging to the kingdom Plantae. The flowering plants or angiosperms ( Angiospermae or Magnoliophyta) are the most widespread group Ranunculales is an order of Flowering plants Of necessity it contains the family Ranunculaceae, the Buttercup family Sabiaceae is a family of Flowering plants, native to tropical to warm temperate regions of southern Asia and the Americas. Proteales is the Botanical name of an order of Flowering plants. Trochodendrales is a Botanical name for an order of Flowering plants. Buxales is a Botanical name at the rank of order Under the APG II system, Buxaceae is a family unplaced as to order in the Eudicots. Gunnerales is an order of Flowering plants. In the APG II system (2003 it contains two genera Gunnera and Myrothamnus Berberidopsidales Doweld (2001 is a Botanical name at the rank of order Dilleniales is the Botanical name of an order of Flowering plants. Caryophyllales is an order of Flowering plants that includes the cacti, carnations Amaranths Ice plants and most Santalales is an order of Flowering plants with a Cosmopolitan distribution but heavily concentrated in tropical and subtropical regions The Saxifragales are an order of Dicotyledon Flowering plants In the APG II classification system it includes the following families Vitaceae are a family of Dicotyledonous Flowering plants including the Grape and Virginia creeper. In the APG II system for the classification of the Angiosperms the name rosids refers to a Clade, meaning a Monophyletic group of plants In the APG II system (2003 for the classification of Flowering plants, the name asterids refers to a Clade (a Monophyletic group The flowering plants or angiosperms ( Angiospermae or Magnoliophyta) are the most widespread group The term means, literally, "true dicotyledons" as it contains the majority of plants that have been considered dicotyledons and have typical dicotyledonous characters. Dicotyledons, or "dicots", is a name for a group of Flowering plants whose Seed typically has two embryonic leaves or Cotyledons There The term "eudicots" has been widely adopted to refer to one of the two major clades of angiosperms, monocots being the other. A clade is a taxonomic group comprising a single Common ancestor and all the descendants of that ancestor Monocotyledons or monocots are one of two major groups of Flowering plants (angiosperms that are traditionally recognised the other being Dicotyledons The remaining dicots are sometimes referred to as paleodicots but this term has not been widely adopted as it does not refer to a monophyletic group. Paleodicots (sometimes spelled "palaeodicots" is an informal name used by botanists (Spichiger & Savolainen 1997 Leitch et al

A large number of familiar plants are eudicots. A few are forget-me-not, cabbage, apple, dandelion, buttercup, maple and macadamia. Myosotis is a Genus of Flowering plants in the family Boraginaceae that are commonly called Forget-me-nots. The cabbage ( Brassica oleracea var capitata) is a leafy garden plant of the Family Brassicaceae (or Cruciferae used as a The apple is the pomaceous Fruit of the apple tree Species Malus domestica in the Rose family Rosaceae. Acer ( maple) is a Genus of Trees or Shrubs They are variously classified in a family of their own the Aceraceae, or Macadamia is a Genus of nine Species of Flowering plants in the family Proteaceae, with a Disjunct distribution native

Another name for the eudicots is tricolpates, a name which refers to the structure of the pollen. Pollen is a fine to coarse powder consisting of microgametophytes ( pollen grains) which produce the male Gametes (sperm cells of The group has tricolpate pollen, or forms derived from it. These pollen have three or more pores set in furrows called colpi. In contrast, most of the other seed plants (that is the gymnosperms, the monocots and the paleodicots) produce monosulcate pollen, with a single pore set in a differently oriented groove called the sulcus. The spermatophytes (from the Greek word "Σπερματόφυτα" (also known as phanerogams) comprise those Plants that produce Seeds They are Gymnosperm (Gymnospermae are a group of Spermatophyte seed-bearing Plants with Ovules on the edge or blade of an open Sporophyll, which are Monocotyledons or monocots are one of two major groups of Flowering plants (angiosperms that are traditionally recognised the other being Dicotyledons The name "tricolpates" is preferred by some botanists in order to avoid confusion with the dicots, a non-monophyletic group (Judd & Olmstead 2004). Dicotyledons, or "dicots", is a name for a group of Flowering plants whose Seed typically has two embryonic leaves or Cotyledons There

The name eudicots (plural) is used in the APG system, of 1998, and APG II system, of 2003, for classification of angiosperms. The flowering plants or angiosperms ( Angiospermae or Magnoliophyta) are the most widespread group It is applied to a clade, a monophyletic group, which includes most of the (former) dicotyledons. A clade is a taxonomic group comprising a single Common ancestor and all the descendants of that ancestor A clade is a taxonomic group comprising a single Common ancestor and all the descendants of that ancestor Dicotyledons, or "dicots", is a name for a group of Flowering plants whose Seed typically has two embryonic leaves or Cotyledons There

Subdivision

Within the "eudicots" or "tricolpates" the main groups are the "rosids" (core group with the prefix "eu−") and the "asterids" (core group with the prefix "eu−").
