>Dear Taxacomers,

>The APG website shows that two related clades -- Lamiaceae&  allies and Acanthaceae&  allies diverged from a common ancestor. Can anyone direct
>me to papers that have been published on this major dicotomy; in particular papers that might suggest a date for this divergence, given a strong assumption on the root's>maximal age?
