Your textbook expanded Salicaceae dramatically to include most of “Flacourtiaceae”, a mostly tropical family with much more diverse morphology

Salicaceae (Salix and Populus) as covered here (and in FPNW) is monophyletic and is either nested within “Flacourtiaceae” or sister to “Flacourtiaceae”

Textbook DVD KRR & DLN Salix interior perianth is absent, each flower is subtended by a hairy bract Salicaceae (Willow family)

Salicaceae - 2 genera/435 species

Trees or shrubs, often found along river banks, due to their mode of vegetative reproduction Leaves simple, alternate, deciduous, with salicoid teeth (gland at tip of vein along serrated leaf margin) Flowers inconspicuous, unisexual; plants dioecious both staminate and carpellate flowers are in erect catkins perianth lacking, flowers are subtended by a hairy bract stamens 2-4; carpels 2-4, connate, with many ovules ovary superior Fruit: capsule - dry, dehiscent, many-carpeled fruit, seeds typically with woolly hairs Wind pollination syndrome

Textbook DVD WSJ

Textbook DVD DLN Photo: Yaowu Yuan What common traits do they share in terms of floral presentation? Wind pollination syndrome

Flowers appear before leaves are out; tend to flower early in the year

Often unisexual flowers

Flowers often aggregated in catkins

Individual flowers small and inconspicuous

Big stamens (large anthers) produce lots of pollen

Stigmas large and plumose or roughened (papillate) to catch pollen

Ratio of pollen to ovules VERY HIGH (up to 6,000 to 1) References
