Gelidocalamus fengkaiensis (Poaceae: Bambusoideae), a new bamboo species from Guangdong, China, with an analysis of branch development in relation to flowering

Botanical Studies, 2021
Background Bamboos, widely distributed in temperate and tropical Asia, Africa and America, refer to a group of special plants in Poaceae, Bambusoideae. China is rich in bamboo species.

Negative correlation between rates of molecular evolution and flowering cycles in temperate woody bamboos revealed by plastid phylogenomics

BMC Plant Biology, 2017
Background Heterogeneous rates of molecular evolution are universal across the tree of life, posing challenges for phylogenetic inference. The temperate woody bamboos (tribe Arundinarieae, Poaceae) are noted for their extremely slow molecular ...

Bergbambos and Oldeania, new genera of African bamboos (Poaceae, Bambusoideae)

PhytoKeys, 2013
Two new monotypic genera, Bergbambos and Oldeania are described for African temperate bamboo species in the tribe Arundinarieae, after a comparison of their morphological characteristics with those of similar species from Asia.

The complete chloroplast genome of Phyllostachys glauca (Bambusoideae), a dominant bamboo species in limestone mountains endemic to China

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
Phyllostachys glauca is a dominant species in limestone mountains endemic to China. Here, we characterized its complete chloroplast genome. It is a circular DNA molecule of 139,689 bp in length, including a pair of 21,798 bp inverted repeats (IRs), a 12 ...

Plastome Sequencing of Ten Nonmodel Crop Species Uncovers a Large Insertion of Mitochondrial DNA in Cashew

The Plant Genome, Volume 10, Issue 3, November 2017., 2017
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]

PeerJ, 2016
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

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 66, Issue 10, Page 2242-2261, October 2024.
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

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 66, Issue 3, Page 546-578, March 2024.
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.

Genetic diversity and population structure of the threatened temperate woody bamboo Kuruna debilis (Poaceae: Bambusoideae: Arundinarieae) from Sri Lanka based on microsatellite analysis

Journal of the National Science Foundation of Sri Lanka, 2017
Species of the temperate woody bamboo genus Kuruna Attigala, Kathriar. & L.G. Clark (Poaceae: Bambusoideae) distributed in Sri Lanka and southern India, are threatened due to deforestation and habitat fragmentation. The current study focused on the tetraploid woody bamboo Kuruna debilis (Thwaites) Attigala, Kathriar. & L.G. Clark, using twelve variable

The utility of Bambusoideae (Poaceae, Poales) leaf blade anatomy for identification and systematics

Brazilian Journal of Biology
Bambusoideae is a diverse subfamily that includes herbaceous (Olyreae) and woody (Arundinarieae and Bambuseae) bamboos. Species within Bambusae are particularly difficult to identify due to their monocarpic lifecycle and the often long durations between ...
