Despite the controversy surrounding Cariceae generic and Carex subgeneric limits, most
debates centre on a relatively small number of highly reduced unispicate taxa. This study …

Debates on the limits and relationships of Cariceae genera and subgenera have historically
focused on a small number of unusual “transitional” taxa and on scenarios involving a …

Phylogenetic reconstruction for Carex and relatives in tribe Cariceae is complicated by
species richness and nearly cosmopolitan distribution. In this investigation, our main …

With approximately 2,000 species, Carex is the largest genus in the Cyperaceae and is one
of the most widespread genera in the world. Relationships within Carex and among the …

The goal of this study was to review the impact of DNA sequence analyses on our
understanding of Cariceae phylogeny, classification and evolution. To explore character …

Carex (Cyperaceae), with an estimated 2000 species, nearly cosmopolitan distribution and
broad range of habitats, is one of the largest angiosperm genera and the largest in the …

Abstract Traditional Cariceae and Carex (1966 spp.) classifications recognised five genera
(Carex, Cymophyllus, Kobresia, Schoenoxiphium, Uncinia) and four subgenera (Carex …

With approximately 2000 species, tribe Cariceae (Cyperaceae) comprises a morphologically
distinctive cosmopolitan clade, with holocentric chromosomes (N= 6 to 56), complex …

Incongruence between gene trees, even within genomes, is often the result of hybridization
and/or other processes such as incomplete lineage sorting, and can cause problems for …

Since the Monocots II meeting in 1998, significant new data have been published that
enhance our systematic knowledge of Cyperaceae. Phylogenetic studies in the family have …
