The holocentric chromosome microevolution: From phylogeographic patterns to genomic associations with environmental gradients.
Geographic isolation and chromosome evolution are two of the major drivers of diversification in eukaryotes in general, and specifically, in plants. On one hand, range shifts induced by Pleistocene glacial oscillations deeply shaped the evolutionary trajectories of species in the Northern Hemisphere. On the other hand, karyotype variability within species... -

Bulbostylis albidostricta (Abildgaardieae, Cyperaceae): a new sedge species from Angola.
Bulbostylis albidostricta Veltjen & Goetgh. is presented as new species of Bulbostylis (Cyperaceae) from Angola. It is a small, elegant sedge species characterised by a slender creeping rhizome, a single terminal spikelet, glumes with a translucent margin and white velate nutlets. The species is described and illustrated, and differences with...Veltjen, Emily ; Browning, Jane ; Goetghebeur, Paul ; Larridon, Isabel

The genera of Cyperaceae of Madagascar.
– The rise of DNA sequencing in systematics has brought more understanding of the Cyperaceae family worldwide. Through these studies, it has been possible to delineate major clades and classify its species into subfamilies, tribes, and genera. Today, we have a good understanding of the species diversity and geographic distribution...Rasaminirina, Fitiavana ; Larridon, Isabel

Reassessment of morphological species delimitations in the Cyperus margaritaceus-niveus complex using morphometrics.
– The complex is a group of ten tropical species from sub-Saharan Africa and Madagascar: , , , , , , , , , and . They are characterised by a capitate head of white-yellow spikelets and modified culm bases and recent molecular analysis puts them in a distinct clade....Xanthos, Martin ; Mayo, Simon J. ; Larridon, Isabel

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... -
