Whole-Genome Comparison Reveals Divergent IR Borders and Mutation Hotspots in Chloroplast Genomes of Herbaceous Bamboos (Bambusoideae: Olyreae) [PDF]
Molecules, 2018 Herbaceous bamboos (Olyreae) are a separate lineage with idiosyncratic traits, e.g., unisexual flowers and annual or seasonal flowering lifestyle, in the grass family. To elucidate the evolution of herbaceous bamboos we produced two complete chloroplast (

Coalescent-Based Species Delimitation in Herbaceous Bamboos (Bambusoideae, Olyreae) from Eastern Brazil: Implications for Taxonomy and Conservation in a Group with Weak Morphological Divergence Coupled with Low Genetic Diversity [PDF]
Plants, 2022 Species delimitation in herbaceous bamboos has been complex and, in some genera, a great part of its diversity has been confirmed only based on genetic information, as is the case of the genus Raddia.

Panama as a crucial centre of differentiation for the herbaceous bamboos (Poaceae: Bambusoideae: Olyreae): a study in progress [PDF]
Plant Biosystems, 2014 This contribution introduces the ongoing research on herbaceous bamboos started by the University of Florence (FT herbarium), the Universidad de Panama (PMA herbarium) and the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in 2011. The main goal of this project consists in collecting field data, in order to provide updated material to be used in a ...

How bamboo influences the seed bank and biotic and abiotic factors of a Brazilian tropical forest
Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2021 There is a knowledge gap regarding the influence of bamboos on natural regeneration. This study evaluated how abundance, richness, dominance, evenness, diversity of the seed bank and biotic and abiotic factors (e.g., canopy opening, herbaceous cover, and
