Angiosperms dominate our terrestrial ecosystems, and the remarkable flowers and inflorescences have evolved into a spectacular and remarkably diversity. However, despite much research on their unique reproductive structures, there is still much that we do not know about how angiosperms rose to such dominance, how the first flowers evolved and how the inflorescences and flowers of extant taxa develop (Christenhusz, Fay & Chase, 2017; Sauquet et al., 2017). The Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society has a strong record of publishing papers relating to the structure and development of flowers and inflorescences and reviews of different aspects of floral biology across the angiosperms (e.g. Endress, 2014, 2015, 2019).

杜鹃花的花和花序

被子植物在我们的陆地生态系统中占主导地位，非凡的花朵和花序已演变成壮观而又非常明显的多样性。然而，尽管对其独特的生殖结构进行了大量研究，但关于被子植物如何上升到这种优势，第一朵花如何进化以及现存类群的花序和花是如何发育的，我们仍有很多我们尚不清楚（Christenhusz，Fay＆Chase， 2017; Sauquet等人，2017）。Linnean学会的植物学报在有关花朵和花序的结构和发育以及对被子植物花生物学的不同方面的评论方面发表论文的记录很丰富（例如Endress，2014、2015、2019）。
