The Proteaceae are a diverse group of plants dating back to                  the Cretaceous Period, now dispersed among the southern                         continents by the break-up of the Mesozoic continent Gondwana.                  New data on modern and fossil pollen will be gathered using light               and electron microscopy.  For the first time, the ancestor-                     descendant relationships within the family will be assessed by                  combining pollen data with information on the morphology,                       anatomy, and cytology of the whole plants.                                         The proposed research will expand our understanding of the                   evolution and geographic history of the family during continental               drift, and will clarify its relationships with other families of                plants.   The use of multiple datasets in assessing relationships               will also illuminate the process of character evolution.
