Angiosperm Evolution: Pollen
• Basic division in distinguishing angiosperms is NOT monocot versus dicot!!
• Basic distinction is the number of pores or sulcae in the pollen grains.
• Trends in pollen evolution clearly show a shift from uniaperturate pollen found in gymnosperms and the basal angiosperms to triaperturate pollen found in the more derived flowering plants.
• Plesiomorphic condition in angiosperms is one sulcus (monocolpate).
• Fossil record is quite good to document this transformation in pollen type.

On to the monocots…
...clearly monophyletic…superbly apomorphic! ! !
![Page 32: The ANITA grade and the Magnoliid Complex](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070405/56813cb3550346895da65fb7/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
As we venture through the various major groups of
angiosperms…
• Identify the plesiomorphic characteristics associated with particular groups and note their apomorphies (if any) as well.
• Try to associate “syndromes” of characteristics with each group (make note of special characters occurring together).
• One good way to study is to write keys to the groups we cover in any given unit.
• Names of groups are important! Learn to spell and say them!
• Ask questions!!
