This study investigates whether floral morphology in the legume genus Mimosa is constrained, finding that morphological uniformity is shaped by developmental and functional constraints rather than pollinator selection.

This study examines evolutionary connections between ancient Neotropical highlands and lowland biomes, finding that climate drives lineage exchange and challenges the sky-island hypothesis.

The paper examines pollen disparity in two mimosoid legume lineages, finding distinct patterns shaped by phylogeny and developmental constraints rather than environmental pressures.
