The reconstruction and biochemical characterization of ancestral genes furnish insights into the evolution of terpene synthase function in the Poaceae

Plant Molecular Biology, 2020
Distinct catalytic features of the Poaceae TPS-a subfamily arose early in grass evolution and the reactions catalyzed have become more complex with time. The structural diversity of terpenes found in nature is mainly determined by terpene synthases (TPS).

A 250 plastome phylogeny of the grass family (Poaceae): topological support under different data partitions

PeerJ, 2018
The systematics of grasses has advanced through applications of plastome phylogenomics, although studies have been largely limited to subfamilies or other subgroups of Poaceae.

The modern pollen-vegetation relationship of a tropical forest-savannah mosaic landscape, Ghana, West Africa [PDF]

, 2017
Transitions between forest and savannah vegetation types in fossil pollen records are often poorly understood due to over-production by taxa such as Poaceae and a lack of modern pollen-vegetation studies.

Intraspecific variation in stomatal architecture, gas exchange, and drought response of a dominant prairie grass sourced from broad climatic gradients

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Understanding how plant populations adapt to water limitation through stomatal traits is key to predicting drought responses. The dominant C4 grass Andropogon gerardi, distributed across sharp climate gradients in North America, offers an excellent focal species to study stomatal architecture (size and density).

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Pennisetum flaccidum (Poaceae)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021
Pennisetum flaccidum Grisebach is a typical high-quality forage and adrought-tolerant grass. In this study, we firstly reported the complete chloroplast (cp) genome of P. flaccidum, which was 138,336 bp in length, including a pair of inverted repeats (IR:

Wind‐driven seed dispersal differentially promotes seed trapping and retention across alpine plants

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Seed dispersal can mediate species interactions between plants across life stages. Plants can physically stop seed movement (seed trapping) and prevent further dispersal following entrapment (seed retention). We therefore hypothesized seed trapping and retention rates depend on the physical attributes of interacting seeds and plants ...
