CHROMOSOME STUDIES IN AMERICAN PANICOIDEAE (POACEAE)1

open access: yesAnnals of the Missouri Botanical Garden, 2006
Abstract Chromosome numbers and observations on meiotic chromosome behavior of 37 taxa of American Panicoideae are given. The taxa studied are: Axonopus scoparius (Flugge) Kuhlm., Cenchrus myosuroides Kunth, Dichanthelium aciculare var. aciculare (Desv. ex Poir.) Gould & C. A. Clark, D. acuminatum var. acuminatum (Sw.) Gould & C. A.

Gene turnover in the common ancestor of all C4 grasses

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Understanding how plants evolve more efficient photosynthesis is important in a warming world where improving crop productivity and resilience is a global priority. By generating the first reference genomes for an early‐diverging group of grasses called the Aristidoideae, we were able to reconstruct the genetic makeup of the last common ancestor of all

Complete Chloroplast Genome of Indonesian Sugarcane (Saccharum ‘Bululawang’): Comparative, Structural, and Evolutionary Analysis of Photosystem I‐Encoding Genes

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Sugarcane is one of the most important crops, providing the majority of global sugar production and serving as a major feedstock for bioenergy. Increasing demands for sustainable sugar production under climate and productivity constraint have intensified the need for molecular‐level characterization of elite cultivars.

Biogeographical variation in specific IgE recognition of temperate and subtropical grass pollen allergens in allergic rhinitis patients

open access: yesClinical & Translational Immunology, 2020
Objective Globally, grass pollens (GP) are major aeroallergen triggers of allergic rhinitis (AR) and asthma. However, patterns of allergic sensitisation to pollen of temperate (Pooideae: Lolium perenne) and subtropical (Chloridoideae: Cynodon dactylon ...

A Meta‐Analysis Reveals That the Protective Role of Silicon in Grasses Against Fungal Pathogens Depends on Infection Mechanism

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 5947-5964, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Pathogen infection drives plant community structure and constrains global agricultural productivity. Silicon (Si) improves resistance to abiotic and herbivory stress, particularly in grasses, but relatively little attention has addressed Si‐mediated resistance to pathogens, nor has it tested how this varies according to the type of plant and ...

Diversification of inflorescence development in the PCK clade (Poaceae: Panicoideae: Paniceae)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, 2009
In grasses, inflorescence diversification and its correlation with species evolution are intriguing and not well understood. Part of this problem lies in our lack of comprehension about the inflorescence morphological complexity of grasses. We focused our study on the PCK clade (named for phosphoenol pyruvate carboxykinase), a well‐supported ...

Mechanical Strength: An Unrecognised Target in the Genetic Improvement of Crops

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4190-4203, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Leaf angle (LA) is a crucial agronomic trait influencing planting density and crop yield. Previous research highlighted the importance of cellular variations in the ligular region for determining LA, but the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain unclear.

A pleiotropic “stretch” phenotype is associated with metaxylem vessel element length, axial hydraulic conductance, root elongation, water utilization, and drought adaptation in maize

open access: yesCrop Science, Volume 66, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract We tested the hypothesis that metaxylem phenotypes influence drought adaptation in maize (Zea mays L.) through in silico modeling and empirical studies under water deficit in controlled environments and in the field. Substantial genotypic variation for metaxylem vessel element length (MVEL) was observed. Longer MVEL was correlated with reduced

Predicted Range Shifts of Non‐Native Grasses in Response to Climate Change Are Influenced by Photosynthetic Pathway: A Case Study in the Hawaiian Islands

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Grasses comprise three main photosynthetic pathway variants (C3‐BOP, C3‐PACMAD and C4‐PACMAD hereafter referred to as C4). We sought to confirm climate niche differences among these photosynthetic pathway variants and assessed whether predicted non‐native grass range shift patterns with climate change differ among photosynthetic pathway ...
