- Observation Secretory structures were reported in 242 species, mostly Caesalpinioideae.
- Observation The review found secretory structures in 224 Caesalpinioideae species.
- Observation The review found secretory structures in seven Cercidoideae species.
- Observation The review found secretory structures in 11 Detarioideae species.
- Observation Extrafloral nectaries predominated in 177 species.
- Observation Colleters occurred in 54 species.
- Observation Idioblasts occurred in 15 species.
- Observation Secretory cavities occurred in eight species.
- Mechanism Primary metabolites in Caesalpinioideae secretory structures enhance mutualistic interactions.
- Mechanism Mucilage in colleters protects the shoot apex against desiccation.
- Observation Secretory structures of Cercidoideae mostly produce terpenoids and flavonoids.
- Observation Secretory structures of Detarioideae mostly produce terpenoids and flavonoids.
- Observation Extrafloral nectaries predominate in the Mimosoid clade and studied Caesalpinioideae genera.
