How to Study the Asteraceae (Compositae) With Special…
ABSTRACT: The Asteraceae is one of the largest families of flowering plants. It includes a large number of genera and species with rapid rates of radiation and possibly also of evolution. Members of the family have also been studied in connection with the effect of climate change on character evolution in plants. Some of the features of the family that have enabled such rapid radiation and possible speciation reside within the group of flowers that are produced commonly at the ends of branches and stems.
