Culm Age and Rhizome Affects Night-Time Water Recharge in the Bamboo Phyllostachys pubescens
Bamboo species—the only herbaceous trees—have unique structural and physiological characteristics that differ from those of other tree taxa. However, the role of night-time water use in bamboo is poorly understood and has rarely been investigated.

The floral transcriptomes of four bamboo species (Bambusoideae; Poaceae): support for common ancestry among woody bamboos [PDF]
Background Next-generation sequencing now allows for total RNA extracts to be sequenced in non-model organisms such as bamboos, an economically and ecologically important group of grasses.

Effects of grazing and fire on herbaceous species in the Bolivian Altiplano [PDF]
High mountain rangelands had been under human land use for millennia in most parts of the world. Traditional land care systems led to highly diverse and stable ecosystems.

Invasive plants as catalysts for the spread of human parasites [PDF]
To a degree not widely recognized, some naturalized and invasive plants increase the risks to human health by enhancing the proliferation of vectors of virulent human parasites. These potential risks are restricted by neither ecosystem nor geography. The

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

Phylogenetics and Evolution of the Paleotropical Woody Bamboos (Poaceae: Bambusoideae: Bambuseae) [PDF]
The paleotropical woody bamboos (PWB) are members of Bambuseae (tropical woody bamboos) in subfamily Bambusoideae of the grass family (Poaceae). Although the PWB are important in ecological and economic functions, the phylogenetic relationships of the ...

Genome sequences provide insights into the reticulate origin and unique traits of woody bamboos.
Polyploidization is a major driver of speciation and its importance to plant evolution has been well recognized. Bamboos comprise of one diploid herbaceous and three polyploid woody lineages, and are the only major subfamily in grasses which diversified ...
