Genetic variation in Loudetia simplex supports the presence of ancient grasslands in Madagascar.
Reconnaître que les prairies dominées par Loudetia étaient répandues avant la colonisation humaine souligne que les écosystèmes ouverts étaient et continuent d'être un composant important de la biodiversité de Madagascar. Il est urgent de réaliser des inventaires de la biodiversité et une taxonomie intégrée pour le traitement de la... -

Contrasted histories of organelle and nuclear genomes underlying physiological diversification in a grass species
C4 photosynthesis evolved multiple times independently in angiosperms, but most origins are relatively old so that the early events linked to photosynthetic diversification are blurred. The grass Alloteropsis semialata is an exception, as this species encompasses C4 and non-C4 populations. Using phylogenomics and population genomics, we infer the history of...Bianconi, Matheus E. ; Dunning, Luke T. ; Curran, Emma V. ; Hidalgo, Oriane ; Powell, Robyn F. …

Geographical structure of genetic diversity in Loudetia simplex (Poaceae) in Madagascar and South Africa
Ecologically dominant species are primary determinants of ecosystem function, especially in grassy ecosystems, but the history and biology of grassy ecosystems in Madagascar are poorly understood compared to those of Africa. Loudetia simplex is a C4 perennial grass that is adapted to fire and common to dominant across Africa. It... -
