Hypothetic Phylogeny Tree Based on Pollen Morphology

We hypothesize that the Asian Lily and Day Lily are more closely related due to their similar reticulated surfaces. The Asian Lily has a reticulate surface, while the Day Lily has more of a foveolate surface. In addition, they are both monocolpates. In contrast, the Calla Lily is inaperturate and has a psilate surface.
