Paspaleae

Paspaleae is a tribe of the Panicoideae subfamily in the grasses (Poaceae), native mainly to the tropical and subtropical Americas but with a number of species introduced to other regions. It includes roughly 680 species in 39 genera.[2] Species in this tribe use either of the C3 or C4 photosynthetic pathways.[3]

The genera of Paspaleae used to be included in the Paniceae but were assigned to a new tribe following molecular phylogenetic analyses in 2012. The Paspaleae have an ancestral number of chromosomes (monoploid number) of x = 10, unlike the Paniceae sensu stricto with x = 9, and are more closely related to the tribes Andropogoneae and Arundinelleae.[4] The tribe is subdivided into three subtribes, with one genus, Reynaudia, unplaced (incertae sedis) and probably basal to the other genera.[2] The genus Lecomtella is sometimes included but a study suggested this genus was a distinct clade and best treated as separate tribe, Lecomtelleae.[5]

gollark: Can we expect them to be globally unique?
gollark: I mean, ABR does `event_bus_subsystem/ID` internally and `event_bus_subsystem/server/channel` for display.
gollark: Yes, that.
gollark: And do we have a standard format for channels?
gollark: Can we change "IP addresses" to "persistent identifiers" or something?
