Abstract Phylogenetic interrelationships among all 18 families of Poales were assessed by cladistic analysis of chloroplast DNA rbcL and atpB sequences from 65 species. There are two well‐supported main clades; the graminoid clade with Poaceae (grasses), Anarthriaceae, Centrolepidaceae, Ecdeiocoleaceae, Flagellariaceae, Joinvilleaceae, and Restionaceae; and the cyperoid clade with Cyperaceae, Juncaceae, and Thurniaceae. A sister group relationship between Poaceae and Ecdeiocoleaceae is…

A comprehensive sampling and reconstructed the phylogenetic tree using plastid and mitochondrial genomic data from 91 to 66 taxa, respectively, representing all the 16 families of Poales supports the finding of Bromeliaceae and Typhaceae as the earliest diverging groups within the Poales while having phylogenetic relationships with the polytomy.
Plastome phylogenomics of Poaceae: alternate topologies depend on alignment gaps
- BiologyBotanical Journal of the Linnean Society

Knowledge of the deep PACMAD topology explicitly impacts the understanding of the radiation ofPACMAD grasses into open habitats, and the fact that the aristidoid sister hypothesis was retrieved largely when gapped positions were included suggests that this result might be artefactual.

The results support the monophyly of Chaitophorinae and two tribes, indicate that Sipha and the two largest genera Chaitphorus and Periphyllus are not monophyletic, and suggest a need for a change in the taxonomic status of Lambersaphis, which was nested within Chaitophileorus in the phylogenetic tree.

The aim is to reconstruct the biogeographical history of the Omphalodeae and to investigate the role of diaspore traits favoring LDD and current geographic distributions, which result is that epizoochorous traits have been the ancestral state of LDD syndromes in most clades.

The numbers of species in families of the revised Commelinidae are related partly to the extent of adaptive radiation in those families, but seem more strongly related to nonadaptive features promoting speciation, such as restricted seed dispersal, polyploidy, aneuploidsy, and apomixis.
