Diversity and Taxonomy of Cyperus (Cyperaceae) in the Central-West Region of Brazil.
A taxonomic study of Cyperus L. (Cyperaceae) in the Central-West region of Brazil is presented. We examined more than 1300 herbarium specimens. Many of the species were also studied in the field. Our results recognize 59 species of Cyperus in the Central-West of Brazil, including three species endemic to the... -

A monograph of the African and Madagascan species of Cyperus sect. Incurvi (Cyperaceae).
sect. (Cyperaceae) contains 31 species worldwide, with important continental radiations in Australasia, Tropical Africa and Madagascar, and the Neotropics. Here, a monograph of the African and Madagascan species of sect. is presented, including descriptions, illustrations, synonymy, notes on habitat and ecology, geographic distribution ranges and conservation assessments. Our results identify...Griffiths, Megan ; Ralimanana, Hélène ; Rakotonasolo, Franck ; Larridon, Isabel

Piloting development of species conservation action plans in Guinea.
Conservation action plans need to be devised and implemented if we are to reduce the extinction risk faced by globally threatened plants. However, most plant species categorized as threatened globally on the IUCN Red List lack conservation action plans. In West Africa, Guinea is one of the most diverse countries... -

A linear classification of Cyperaceae.
This paper provides a linear classification of two subfamilies, 24 tribes, 10 subtribes and 95 genera of the monocot family Cyperaceae (Poales), based on a stable phylogenetic framework resulting from years of morphological, molecular phylogenetic and phylogenomic studies. The family includes c. 5687 species. The most species-rich tribes are the...Larridon, Isabel

Comparison of Magnoliaceae Plastomes: Adding Neotropical Magnolia to the Discussion.
Chloroplast genomes are considered to be highly conserved. Nevertheless, differences in their sequences are an important source of phylogenetically informative data. Chloroplast genomes are increasingly applied in evolutionary studies of angiosperms, including Magnoliaceae. Recent studies have focused on resolving the previously debated classification of the family using a phylogenomic approach... -

A molecular phylogenetic study of African members of tribe Hypolytreae (Mapanioideae, Cyperaceae).
Mapanoioideae are one of two subfamilies of Cyperaceae and consist of 186 species. Molecular phylogenetic relationships in subfamily Cyperoideae have recently been studied well, whereas evolutionary relationships in Mapanioideae remain little known. Subfamily Mapanioideae include two tribes. This study focuses on Hypolytreae, which is represented by three genera in Africa...Mesterházy, Attila ; Kim, Changkyun ; Cabezas, Francesco ; Verloove, Filip ; Larridon, Isabel
