| Title: | Living Fossils-Amborella: The Earth’s First Smile |
| Issue Date: | Dec-2010 |
| Publisher: | NISCAIR-CSIR, India |
| Abstract: | The flowering plant Amborella trichopoda is perhaps the most primitive flowering plant on Earth. It is the sole member of the Family Amborellaceae. Angiosperms or flowering plants are believed to have diverged from Gymnosperms – about 130 million years ago – roughly about as long ago as Amborella trichopoda’s history began. |
