Topic: Liliidae


In the News (Fri 17 Feb 12)

  
  Liliidae - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Liliidae is a botanical name at the rank of subclass.
Circumscription of the subclass will vary with the taxonomic system being used (there are many such systems); the only requirement being that it includes the family Liliaceae.
The APG and APG II systems do not use formal botanical names above the rank of order, and names such as Liliopsida and Liliidae have no place in these systems.

 Liliopsida - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Earlier systems referred to this group by the name Monocotyledones, with Monocotyledoneae an earlier spelling (these names may be used in any rank).
Systems such as the Dahlgren and Thorne systems (more recent than the Takhtajan and Cronquist systems) refer to this group by the name Liliidae (a name in the rank of subclass).
Modern systems, such as the APG and APG II systems refer to this group by the name monocots (a name for a clade).

Families in which species tended not to die in disease centres were mainly from the Papilionaceae, Proteaceae, Mimosaceae, Myrtaceae, Dilleniaceae, Apiaceae and Goodeniaceae for the Magnoliidae and Cyperaceae and Haemodoraceae for the Liliidae.
The species which tended to die frequently in disease centres were mainly from the Magnoliidae families: Papilionaceae, Proteaceae and Epacridaceae; and the Liliidae family Xanthorrhoeaceae, as well as the only species of the Zamiaceae.
The pathogen was isolated from plant or soil mainly for species of the Papilionaceae, Proteaceae, Epacridaceae and Dilleniaceae of the Magnoliideae and the Iridaceae and Xanthorrhoeaceae of the Liliidae.

 Bromeliales - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is best known from the Cronquist system, of 1981, which placed this order in subclass Zingiberidae, of class Liliopsida [=monocotyledons].
The Thorne system (1992) placed the order in superorder Commelinanae in subclass Liliidae [=monocotyledons].
The Dahlgren system placed the order in superorder Bromelianae in subclass Liliidae [=monocotyledons].

 PBIO 450 Lecture Notes - Liliidae -- Spring 1998
The distinctions among the orders and families are fine, difficult to visualize, and even more difficult to summarize because so many of the features are anatomical and chemical yet fully supported by the currently available molecular data.
Therefore, the comparison table of the Liliidae presented here must be regarded as still tentative in the sense that a few items will be added and substracted, yet I suspect the basic arrangements are not going to be significantly altered.
The remaining families in Cronquist's Liliidae are variously divided and sorted elsewhere but within the confines of a newly defined Liliidae.

 Liliopsida
The Liliidae characteristically, although not always, has showy 3-merous flowers, with the tepals all petaloid, and they have extensively exploited insect pollination with well-developed nectaries.
Some Liliidae are arborescent, some possess net-veined leaves, and some have vessel elements throughout the shoot as well as in the root.
Recent molecular phylogenetic studies indicate that the Liliidae has at least 3 distinct lineages: Liliales, including Liliaceae sensu stricto, Smilacaceae, and a number of segregate families of Liliaceae sensu lato; Asparagales, including many of the epigynous Liliaceae segregate families, Iridaceae, and Orchidaceae; and Dioscoreales, including Dioscoreaceae and Burmanniaceae.

 Zingiberidae   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Elements of the Zingiberidae (2 orders, 9 families, 3,800 species) are often associated with order of the Commelinidae and Liliidae.
Cronquist's treatment deals with the fact that these plants are "discordant" when so treated, i.e., the Bromeliales does not 'fit' well within the Commelinidae and the Zingiberales are a bit anomalous within the context of the Liliidae.
Excluding both orders from these subclasses serves to "sharpen" the definition or circumscription of both.
