Bamboo, a member of subfamily Bambusoideae in the grass family (Poaceae), is one of the most important non‐timber forest resources and a potential alternative to wood and wood products. Ethiopian lowland bamboo (Oxytenanthera abyssinica) is an economically and ecologically important species which accounts about 85% of total bamboo coverage in the ...

Genome skimming reveals the complete chloroplast genome of Ampelocalamus naibunensis (Poaceae: Bambusoideae: Arundinarieae) with phylogenomic implication [PDF]
Ampelocalamus naibunensis is one drooping bamboo with an important ornamental value endemic to Taiwan Island. To date, the genetic and genomic information of this species is little known. Here we characterized the complete chloroplast genome of A. naibunensis using genome skimming approach.

In plant evolution, intracellular gene transfer (IGT) is a prevalent, ongoing process. While nuclear and mitochondrial genomes are known to integrate foreign DNA via IGT and horizontal gene transfer (HGT), plastid genomes (plastomes) have resisted foreign DNA incorporation and only recently has IGT been uncovered in the plastomes of a few land plants ...

Bamboo tea: reduction of taxonomic complexity and application of DNA diagnostics based on rbcL and matK sequence data [PDF]
Background Names used in ingredient lists of food products are trivial and in their nature rarely precise. The most recent scientific interpretation of the term bamboo (Bambusoideae, Poaceae) comprises over 1,600 distinct species.

The origin and morphological character evolution of the paleotropical woody bamboos
A robust and time‐calibrated phylogeny based on MiddRAD‐seq of paleotropical woody bamboos, a distinct hexaploid clade of bamboos with complex evolutionary history and morphology, revealed evolutionary trends in plant habit, inflorescence, and caryopsis type in relation to environmental factors including climate, soil, and topography.

Nuclear phylogenomics of angiosperms and insights into their relationships and evolution
This review synthesizes numerous nuclear phylogenomic analyses of angiosperms (analyses that resolved the relationships of major clades, most orders, and many families and subgroups) and discusses the improved understanding of angiosperm biogeography, diversification dynamics, and character evolution.
