Phylogenetic and Taxonomic Studies in Guadua (Poaceae: Bambusoideae: Bambuseae)

Project summary:

This work is critical for the understanding the phylogeny of Guadua and related taxa, a bamboo genus economic and ecological importance. An infragenic circumscription of Guadua will be inferred through phylogenetic studies based on plastid markers. A taxonomic study for the Amazonian species in Brazil will also be prepared.
