Abstract

Researched organization and flower merism in some monocots to determine the possibility of using these features in the systematics. Despite the simplicity of the structure, the flowers are highly specialized monocots, and some have a number of primitive features. The provenance and evolution of monocots are of the  most controversial issues in angiosperms phylogeny. Molecular phylogenetic data confirmed the idea of monophyly of monocots and their origin from primitive flowering plants. Crucial to the understanding morphological evolution monocots have data on the most archaic forms of the modern representatives. Modern views on the monocots phylogeny are inconsistent with any of the traditional hypotheses about the evolution of this group.
