| A wide range of monocots produce bulbs of modified leaves which store food over the winter. |
| For herbaceous dicots and small woody shrubs we have used the same phenology as that for monocots. |
| Extrorse anthers are somewhat concentrated in primitive dicots and primitive monocots and are rare in more advanced groups. |
| Ray's plant classification system was the first to divide flowering plants into monocots and dicots. |
| However, like palms and some members of the Iridales, they have plicate leaves, and these leaf forms are among the earliest known fossil monocots. |
| Such herbaceous monocots are envisaged as evolving in the relatively uniform environment of the moist tropics. |
