Megaphylogenetic Specimen-Level Approaches to the Carex (Cyperaceae) Phylogeny Using ITS, ETS, and matK Sequences: Implications for Classification [PDF]
, 2016 We present the first large-scale phylogenetic hypothesis for the genus Carex based on 996 of the 1983 accepted species (50.23%). We used a supermatrix approach using three DNA regions: ETS, ITS and matK.

Effect of Carex rostrata on seasonal and interannual variability in peatland methane emissions [PDF]
, 2014 Peatlands are a large natural source of atmospheric methane (CH4), and the sedge Carex rostrata plays a critical role in the production, oxidation, and transport of CH4 in these systems.

Oikos, EarlyView.Grasslands, by definition, are dominated by graminoids. Nevertheless, forbs also make up a substantial part of vascular plant diversity in grasslands and are important resources of mammalian herbivores. However, forb recruitment is constrained by successful dominant graminoids, limiting access to safe sites for germination.

Resource limitation and competition shape reproductive allocation and synchrony
Oikos, EarlyView.The dynamics of reproductive allocation (RA) in herbaceous plant communities, particularly in response to varying environmental conditions such as drought stress and competitive interactions, remain underexplored. This study aims to fill this gap by hypothesising that both belowground resource limitation and the presence of dominant species ...

Evaluation of Sedges and Nimblewill as Low-input, Shaded Lawns in Oklahoma, USA
HortTechnology, 2022 Consumers desire low-input turfgrasses that have tolerance to both shade and drought stresses. Several sedges (Carex sp.) and nimblewill (Muhlenbergia schreberi) are native plants prevalent in dry woodland ecosystems in Oklahoma, USA, and may have ...

Oikos, EarlyView.Light is a key driver of understory plant diversity, also important for seed germination, yet its effect on forests soil seed bank diversity remains underexplored. This study assessed the impact of both light availability and spatio‐temporal heterogeneity on soil seed bank diversity.
