An Integrative Systematic Study of the Indo-Sri Lankan Grass Genus Zenkeria Trin.

Project summary:

Zenkeria is a taxonomically problematic grass genus currently placed as incertae sedis within the subfamily Micrairoideae. In this project, morphological, anatomical, micromorphological, and molecular data (Angiosperm353, plastome, ITS2) will be used to resolve the taxonomy of Zenkeria. These requested funds will support my collaborative study (travel, accommodation and essentials).
