The evolutionary and ecological significance of phylloclade formation: A morpho-anatomical approach

Instead of leaves, in a few species the main photosynthetic organ is a flattened structure that can be a modified branch (e.g. Ruscus, Jacksonia) or a fused combination of branch and leaf tissue (e.g. Phyllocladus) called a phylloclade. The phylloclades of Phyllocladus lack xeromorphic features in t...
