Plastid phylogenomics and morphological character evolution of Chloridoideae (Poaceae) [PDF]
Chloridoideae is one of the largest subfamilies of Poaceae, containing many species of great economic and ecological value; however, phylogenetic relationships among the subtribes and genera of Cynodonteae are controversial.

A phylogeny of the Triraphideae including Habrochloa and Nematopoa (Poaceae, Chloridoideae) [PDF]
To investigate the evolutionary relationships among species of the tribe Triraphideae (including two monotypic genera, Habrochloa and Nematopoa), we generated a phylogeny based on DNA sequences from nuclear ribosomal (ITS) and four plastid markers (rps16-

Biochemical and Structural Diversification of C4 Photosynthesis in Tribe Zoysieae (Poaceae) [PDF]
C4 photosynthesis has evolved independently multiple times in grass lineages with nine anatomical and three biochemical subtypes. Chloridoideae represents one of the separate events and contains species of two biochemical subtypes, NAD-ME and PEP-CK ...

Systematics of Disakisperma (Poaceae, Chloridoideae, Chlorideae)
Disakisperma Steud. is a genus of four predominantly perennial C4 (NAD-ME) species in the Americas, Africa, and Asia. Its species previously were treated in Eleusine, Eragrostis, Coelachyrum, Cypholepis, Leptochloa, or Diplachne by nearly all authors. It

Recurrent polyploidy and descending dysploidy as plant genome shapers: Insights from Sporobolus (Chloridoideae, Poaceae) genomes. [PDF]
Polyploidization or whole genome duplication (WGD) is a source of genetic and phenotypic novelties and is a widespread mechanism of speciation across plant lineages. It is often followed by complex genome dynamics, including diploidization.

Origins Under the Blowtorch: Frequent Fire Shifts the Balance Between Sunda-Origin and Sahul-Origin Plant Species in a Tropical Savanna. [PDF]
We examined the effect of fire frequency on the composition of vegetation of different biogeographic origins, to understand how frequently an ecosystem can be subject to fire but still retain its evolutionary diversity. There was dramatic structural and biogeographic change in less than 20 years from dry tropical woodlands into savannas, creating ...

Traversing the effects of ploidy changes in different Eragrostis curvula genotypes through high-throughput RNA sequencing. [PDF]
Abstract Polyploidization has played a key role in plant genome evolution. Eragrostis curvula (Schrad.) Ness, a perennial forage grass species of the Poaceae family, is an excellent model for investigating genome duplication due to its natural variation in ploidy levels.
