Classes Magnoliopsida - Dicots Liliopsida - Monocots The flowering plants (also angiosperms or Magnoliophyta) are one of the major groups of modern plants, comprising those that produce seeds in specialized reproductive organs called flowers, where the ovulary or carpel is enclosed. ... Orders Base Monocots: Acorus Alismatales Asparagales Dioscoreales Liliales Pandanales Family Petrosaviaceae Commelinids: Arecales Commelinales Poales Zingiberales Family Dasypogonaceae Monocotyledons or monocots are a group of flowering plants usually ranked as a class and once called the Monocotyledoneae. ...

We sequenced the entire coding region of the chloroplast gene matK of 32 Poaceae taxa including 18 genera of subfamilyChloridoideae, 11 genera representing subfamilies Arundinoideae, Bambusoideae, Centothecoideae, Panicoideae, Pooideae, and Oryzoideae plus the sister taxon Joinvillea (Joinvilleaceae) as an outgroup.
The Chloridoideae appear as a monophyletic lineage supported with a 92% bootstrap value.
The remaining Chloridoideae genera sampled represent the tribes Chlorideae, Eragrostideae, and Pappophoreae.
I am most interested in species and generic relationships, and biogeographical patterns in the subfamilyChloridoideae.
My specialty is biosystematic studies of the grasses (Poaceae) and grass-like families (Cyperaceae) using a multitude of techniques ranging from in depth morphological, anatomical, cytological, micromorphological, molecular, cladistic, and population based genetic studies using soluble enzymes.
