Illustrated Pollen Terminology (2018, background): “Tricolporate pollen appears first in the late Albian, and triporate pollen in the middle Cenomanian (Doyle and Endress 2010; Friis et al. 2011; Doyle 2012).”
Burmese amber: evidence of Gondwanan origin and Cretaceous dispersion (2018, background): “which represents a critical period in their evolution (Friis and Endress1990; Crane et al. 2004; Crepet et al. 2004; Friis et al. 2011).”
A metacalibrated time-tree documents the early rise of flowering plant phylogenetic diversity. (2015, background): “On another front, significant fossil findings – including structurally preserved reproductive organs from Early Cretaceous sediments (Heimhofer et al., 2007; Friis et al., 2011) – document the minimum time of lineage origin and morphological evolution.”
The peril of dating beetles (2017, background): “The ancestral plant association of phytophagan beetles therefore remains somewhat enigmatic as their origin largely pre-dates the diversification and dominance of angiosperms in the Cretaceous (Friis et al., 2011).”
The plant fossil record reflects just two great extinction events (2014, methodology): “For angiosperms, we firstly consulted Collinson et al. (1993), which was then updated following Friis et al. (2011).”
Monocot fossils suitable for molecular dating analyses (2015, methodology): “Chandler, which has been variously assigned to Musaceae and Zingiberaceae, has an extensive fossil record covering Eurasia and North America from the Late Cretaceous nearly to the present day (Fischer et al., 2009; Friis et al., 2011).”
Biogeographical diversification of mainland Asian Dendrobium (Orchidaceae) and its implications for the historical dynamics of evergreen broad‐leaved forests (2016, unknown): “Recent results of fossil and molecular dating analyses have indicated that the woody families that dominate EBLFs diverged after the middle Cretaceous (Friis et al., 1987; Magall on & Castillo, 2009; Smith et al., 2011) and diversified during the early Cenozoic (Xiang et al., 2014).”
