Carex is one of the most species-rich genera of the world and an important component of
vegetation, particularly in colder regions. One of its larger groups is sect. Racemosae with …

Carex aquatilis is a highly diverse and geographically widespread member of one of the
largest genera of flowering plants, Carex, and is ideally suited for the study of the role of …

PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Relationships among closely related and recently diverged taxa
can be especially difficult to resolve. Here we use both Sanger sequencing and next …

We present the first large-scale phylogenetic hypothesis for the genus Carex based on 996
of the 1983 accepted species (50.23%). We used a supermatrix approach using three DNA …

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

To evaluate the sectional classification in Carex, subgenus Carex, the ITS region of 117
species belonging to 32 sections was analyzed with Neighbor Joining (NJ) and Markov …

Section Ovales is the most species-rich section of the sedge genus Carex in the New World.
Phylogenetic analyses of molecular data recover a predominantly New World clade as sister …

The field of systematics is experiencing a new molecular revolution driven by the increased
availability of high-throughput sequencing technologies. As these techniques become more …

Morphological studies of the Carex stricta complex confirm hypotheses based on
chromosome numbers that there are three distinct species in eastern North America, Carex …

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 …
