The Caryophyllales are one of the few higher taxa of the flowering
plants ofwhich the size and delimitation against other taxa is
undisputed. However, their derivation from other taxa and the
evolution of families within this order in unsettled. "Systematics
and Evolution of the Caryophyllales" reviews the important
characters of this taxon emphasizing their contribution and
influence towards a new proposal for both the putative origin of
the order and the classification of its families. New results in
molecular genetics, phytochemistry, ultrastructure, and morphology
are provided and discussed in relation to both the classical and
molecular systematics of the order. In addition, characters like
betalains and sieve-element plastids, which have played a major
role in shaping the size of the order, and others like DNA-data or
flower morphologythat can be useful to discuss the position of the
Caryophyllales within higher plants are critically evaluated.
