The age of the grasses and clusters of origins of C4 photosynthesis

TL;DR: A phylogeny of the grass family is presented, based on nuclear and chloroplast genes, and calibrated with six fossils, to find that the common ancestor of thegrasses (the crown node) originated in the upper Cretaceous, coinciding with a reduction in global CO 2 levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

A molecular phylogeny of Panicum (Poaceae: Paniceae): tests of monophyly and phylogenetic placement within the Panicoideae.

TL;DR: The purpose of this research, based on molecular data of the chloroplast ndhF gene, is to test the monophyly of Panicum, to evaluate infrageneric classifications, and to propose a robust phylogenetic hypothesis.

(poaceae: paniceae): tests of monophyly and phylogenetic placement within the panicoideae'

TL;DR: Panicum L. is a cosmopolitan genus with approximately 450 species as mentioned in this paper, and several classifications, and criteria of what the genus should really include, have been postulated in modern literature.
Journal ArticleDOI

A PHYLOGENY OF SETARIA (POACEAE, PANICOIDEAE, PANICEAE) AND RELATED GENERA BASED ON THE CHLOROPLAST GENE ndhF

TL;DR: It is found that Setaria species fall into several moderately to strongly supported clades that correlate with geography but not with the existing subgeneric classification, and relationships among these clades and among other genera within the bristle clade are unclear.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parodiophyllochloa, a New Genus Segregated from Panicum (Paniceae, Poaceae) Based on Morphological and Molecular Data

TL;DR: The new genus Parodiophyllochloa is proposed on the basis of ecological and morphological features and chloroplast ndhF sequences to include six species ranging from Mexico to Argentina, and compared with other genera of the Paniceae.
