Did dinosaurs invent flowers? Dinosaur-angiosperm coevolution revisited

Article Abstract:

Research into the potential for coevolution of angiosperms and herbivorous dinosaurs is presented. The paper examines evidence for angiosperm-dinosaur relationships in fossil records but does not find sufficient spatiotemporal correlations to support the idea.
