A comparative approach to understanding the ovule, seed, and fruit development in Bulbostylis (Cyperaceae : Cyperoideae : Abildgaardieae)

In the present work, we study the ovule, seed, and fruit development in six Bulbostylis species in order to characterize the genus in a comparative approach and to identify the characteristics that can be used in taxonomy and phylogeny. Flowers and fruits at diferent developmental stages were an...
