Scalariform-to-simple transition in vessel perforation plates triggered by differences in climate during the evolution of Adoxaceae

Angiosperms with simple vessel perforations have evolved many times independently of species having scalariform perforations, but detailed studies to understand why these transitions in wood evolution have happened are lacking. We focus on the striking difference in wood anatomy between two closely...
