“…Moreover, morphology, anatomy, embryo features (Goetghebeur & Simpson, 1991;Tatanov, 2007), and even fungal parasites (Savile, 1972;Léveillé-Bourret et al, 2021) suggest a distant relationship between Bolboschoenus and Schoenoplectus s.s. Likewise, the genus Fuirena is monophyletic and very strongly supported as in previous molecular analyses (e.g., Hinchliff et al, 2010;Spalink et al, 2016;Glon et al, 2017). This is not surprising as many characters, such as terminal racemose or paniculate inflorescences, nodose leafy stems, and peculiar perianth-segments (often unguiculate in form) supported it as an independent genus (Kral, 1978;Haines & Lye, 1983;Goetghebeur, 1998) and potentially a tribe (Haines & Lye, 1983;Tatanov, 2007).…”

“…4.1 The Fuireneae s.l. grade consists of six genera and four tribes As in earlier molecular phylogenetic studies (e.g., Shiels et al, 2014;Spalink et al, 2016;Glon et al, 2017;Semmouri et al, 2019), tribe Abildgaardieae + tribe Eleocharideae form a clade that is sister to the Fuireneae Grade + tribe Cypereae.…”

“…: (i) a clade comprising species from the subcosmopolitan genus Bolboschoenus (15 species; Govaerts et al, 2020); (ii) a clade consisting of the largely American and African, tropical to warm temperate genus Fuirena (55 species; Govaerts et al, 2020); (iii) a clade with the monotypic, (sub)tropical, south Asian-Australasian genus Actinoscirpus as sister to the cosmopolitan, mainly temperate genus Schoenoplectus (27 species, hereafter the Schoenoplectus Clade; Govaerts et al, 2020), and (iv) the monotypic, South African endemic genus Pseudoschoenus as sister to the cosmopolitan, mainly tropical genus Schoenoplectiella (52 species, hereafter the Schoenoplectiella Clade; Govaerts et al, 2020), which is a segregate of Schoenoplectus (Lye, 2003). Among the four larger, widespread genera, Bolboschoenus and Fuirena are easily defined morphologically and they have always been monophyletic in previous molecular studies (Muasya et al, 2009a;Escudero & Hipp, 2013;Hinchliff & Roalson, 2013;Glon et al, 2017;Semmouri et al, 2019). In contrast, the separation and relationships of Schoenoplectus and Schoenoplectiella have not been so clear.…”

Molecular phylogenetic studies based on Sanger sequences have shown that Cyperaceae tribe Fuireneae s.l. is paraphyletic. However, taxonomic sampling in these studies has been poor, topologies have been inconsistent, and support for the backbone of trees has This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved. Accepted Articlebeen weak. Moreover, uncertainty still surrounds the morphological limits of Schoenoplectiella, a genus of mainly small, amphicarpic annuals that was recently segregated from Schoenoplectus. Consequently, despite ample evidence from molecular analyses that Fuireneae s.l. might consist of two to four tribal lineages, no taxonomic changes have yet been made. Here, we use the Angiosperms353 enrichment panel for targeted sequencing in order to: (1) clarify the relationships of Fuireneae s.l. with the related tribes Abildgaardieae, Eleocharideae and Cypereae; (2) define the limits of Fuireneae s.s., and (3) test the monophyly of Fuireneae s.l. genera with emphasis on Schoenoplectus and Schoenoplectiella. Using more than a third of Fuireneae s.l. diversity, our phylogenomic analyses strongly support six genera and four major Fuireneae s.l.clades that we recognise as tribes: Bolboschoeneae stat.nov., Fuireneae s.s., Schoenoplecteae, and Pseudoschoeneae tr.nov. These results are consistent with morphological, micromorphological (nutlet epidermal cell shape), and embryo differences detected for each tribe. At the generic level, most sub-Saharan African perennials currently treated in Schoenoplectus are transferred to Schoenoplectiella. Our targeted sequencing results show that these species are nested in Schoenoplectiella, and their treatment here is consistent with micromorphological and embryo characters shared by all Schoenoplectiella species. Keys to recognised tribes and genera are provided.

“…Cloning to test for multiple copies is often recommended, although this approach adds significant cost to a research project, particularly as the number of included taxa increases, and often with no improvement in phylogenetic signal. Irrespective of these recommendations, numerous recent phylogenetic studies continue to be published based on ITS and/or low-copy nuclear markers for which clon ing was not carried out (see, for example, Tank & Olmstead, 2009;Wahlert & al., 2014;Aubriot & al., 2016;Plunkett & Nicolas, 2016;Franzke & al., 2017;Glon & al., 2017;Villaverde & al., 2017).…”

Ludwigia (Onagraceae) is a worldwide wetland genus with 83 species currently classified as members of 23 sec tions. Past studies have documented the morphological diversity and complex evolutionary history. Here we provide the first comprehensive molecular phylogeny of Ludwigia, using our new data to examine the existing evolutionary hypotheses. We employed both nuclear (ITS, waxy) and chloroplast (rps16, rpl16, trnL‐trnF, trnL‐CD, trnG) DNA regions for this study. Our results suggest that the North Temperate haplostemonous (NTH) group and a second group that includes all other species of Ludwigia(clade B) form strongly supported sister clades. In the NTH group, a monophyletic sect. Ludwigia is sister to the Microcarpium complex, but sect. Microcarpium and sect. Isnardia are not monophyletic. In clade B, the multi‐species sec tions Jussiaea and Macrocarpon are well‐supported monophyletic clades, but others, including the largest sect. Myrtocarpus, are not monophyletic. In sum, this first molecular phylogeny of Ludwigia clarifies and supports several major relationships in the genus but also highlights parts of the classification that should be changed. Our results imply that allopolyploidy played an important role in the evolutionary history of the genus, giving rise to complex patterns of relationships that are not yet adequately reflected in the classification.

“…Bruhl (1995) studied the phylogeny of Cyperaceae based on some morphological and anatomical characters, yet he did not recognize the tribe Fuireneae that was previously proposed by (Goetghebeur, 1986). Later, Goetghebeur (1998), Muasya et al (2009) and Glon et al (2017) recognized six genera within tribe Fuireneae (Govaerts et al, 2015). The tribe Fuireneae is represented in the flora of Egypt by four genera i.e.…”

Nutlets of 13 taxa of subfamily Cyperoideae (Cyperaceae) from Egypt were investigated using light and scanning electron microscopes to ascertain the taxonomic utility of the nutlet in corroborating and elaborating on distinctions between closely related genera and species. The studied taxa included representatives of tribes Fuireneae, Cypereae, Cariceae, Abildgaardieae and Schoeneae. Nutlet shape, size, color, surface, epidermal cell shape, anticlinal boundaries, outer periclinal cell wall and relief of outer cell walls were provided. It was found that the epidermis has useful microscopic characters to help in the taxonomic assessment of Cyperoideae. Seven different types of anticlinal cell wall boundaries were described, four types of outer periclinal cell walls, and five different forms of the secondary cell walls were recognized. A diagnostic key for the studied taxa based on nutlet characters was presented. The results showed congruence between the UPGMA dendrogram and principal component analysis in suggesting two major groups and six subgroups. The most important characters with the highest factor loadings along the first two PCA axes included nutlet shape, nutlet apex, surface topography and the presence of silica bodies. The results of this study confirmed the heterogeneity of the Cyperoideae and indicated that Fuireneae is the most heterogeneous tribe.
