The four-celled female gametophyte of Illicium (Illiciaceae; Austrobaileyales): implications for understanding the origin and early evolution of monocots, eumagnoliids,and eudicots
The Illicium-like four-celled/four-nucleate female gametophyte of Austrobaileyales is at the top, and the reconstructed seven-celled/eight-nucleate female gametophyte of the common ancestor of the clade that includes monocots, eumagnoliids, and eudicots is below.

It is now evident that earlier reports of Polygonum-type female gametophytes in Nymphaeales and Austrobaileyales almost certainly are in error (Friedman and Williams, 2003) and that the misinterpretation of data on female gametophyte structure by earlier workers was the result of a subtle "trick" played by nature.
The mature female gametophytes of members of the Nymphaeales and Austrobaileyales are monosporic and now have been shown conclusively to contain four cells and four nuclei at maturity: a haploid uninucleate central cell, an egg cell, and two synergids (Figure 5).
Given that the genetic constitution of endosperm is related directly to the genetic constitution of the central cell of the female gametophyte, changes in female gametophyte development have the potential to directly alter the ploidy and maternal-to-paternal genomic ratios of endosperm.

The four-celled female gametophyte of Illicium (Illiciaceae; Austrobaileyales): implications for understanding the origin and early evolution of monocots, eumagnoliids, and eudicots.
The recent consensus that Amborellaceae, Nymphaeales, and Austrobaileyales form the three earliest-diverging lineages of angiosperms has led comparative biologists to reconsider the origin and early developmental evolution of the angiosperm seven-celled/eight-nucleate (Polygonum-type) female gametophyte.
Recent phylogenetic analyses of angiosperms have identified a set of "basal" angiosperm lineages (Amborella, Nymphaeales, and a clade that includes Illiciaceae, Schisandraceae, Trimeniaceae, and Austrobaileyaceae) that are central to the study of the origin and early diversification of flowering plants.

PAG-XIII (P795) ABCs Of Basal Angiosperms: Expression Profiles Of Floral Organ Identity Genes In Amborella (Amborellaceae), Nuphar (Nymphaeaceae), Illicium (Austrobaileyales), And Some Magnoliids
However, most of the diversity in arrangement and number of floral parts is found among basal angiosperm lineages which constitute only a small percentage of extant species.
To address the broad applicability of the ABC model, we isolated and investigated the expression patterns of A, B, and C-function genes in the basal angiosperms Amborella (Amborellaceae), Nuphar (Nymphaeaceae), Illicium (Austrobaileyales), and representatives of the magnoliid clade.
