We present a new worldwide phylogenetic classification of 11 506 grass species in 768
genera, 12 subfamilies, seven supertribes, 52 tribes, five supersubtribes, and 90 subtribes; …

Based on recent molecular and morphological studies we present a modern worldwide
phylogenetic classification of the±12074 grasses and place the 771 grass genera into 12 …

Grasslands, in particular managed pastures and rangelands, are widespread, covering
approximately 40%(52 million km²) of the Earth's land surface. They are dominated by …

Many plants take up soluble monosilicic acid from the soil. Some of these plants
subsequently deposit it as cell inclusions of characteristic structure. This article describes the …

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 order Poales comprises a substantial portion of plant life (7% of all angiosperms and
33% of monocots) and includes taxa of enormous economic and ecological significance …

Poales represents more than one-third of all monocotyledons (c. 20 000 species in 16
families) and constitutes a microcosm of the angiosperms. The extreme variation in species …

▪ Abstract The predominantly wind-pollinated order Poales includes about one third of all
monocot (Angiosperm) species, with c. 20,000 species dominating modern savanna and …

Introns and spacers are a rich and well-appreciated information source for evolutionary
studies in plants. Compared to coding sequences, the mutational dynamics of introns and …
