A benchmark text, Developmental Genetics and Plant Evolution integrates the recent revolution in the molecular-developmental genetics of plants with mainstream evolutionary thought. It reflects the increasing cooperation between strongly genomics-influenced researchers, with their strong grasp of technology, and evolutionary morphogenetists

Table of contents:

1 Perspectives and paradigms in plant evo-devo

2 Impact of transposons on plant genomes

3 Evolutionary developmental biology: impact on systematic theory and practice, and the contribution of systematics

4 Transference of function, heterotopy and the evolution of plant development

5 Are macroevolution and microevolution qualitatively different? Evidence from Poaceae and other families

6 The Mostly Male theory of flower origins: summary and update regarding the Jurassic pteridosperm Pteroma

7 Generating and filtering major phenotypic novelties: neoGoldschmidtian saltation revisited

8 Evolution of adaptive petal cell morphology

9 How the land plants learned their floral ABCs: the role of MADS-box genes in the evolutionary origin of flowers

10 Orchid flowers: evolution and molecular development

11 Involvement of non-ABC MADS-box genes in determining stamen and carpel identity in Gerbera hybrida (Asteraceae)

12 Making rays in the Asteraceae: genetics and evolution of radiate versus discoid flower heads

13 Role of TCP genes In the evolution of morphological characters in angiosperms

14 Fiorai diversity and evolution in the Solanaceae

15 Integrating phylogeny, developmental morphology and genetics: a case study of inflorescence evolution in the ‘bristle grass’ clade (Panicoideae: Poaceae)

16 Identification of genes involved in evolutionary diversification of leaf morphology

17 Evolution of vascular plant body plans: a phylogenetic perspective

18 The telome theory

19 A developmental perspective on the evolution of leaves
