Phylogenetic relationships among Southeast Asian climbing bamboos (Poaceae: Bambusoideae) and the Bambusa complex

Flowering Plants. Monocots

“…The most comprehensive phylogeny to date is that of Goh et al (2013), which finds evidence for monophyly of a group of climbing species and a complex history of apparent hybridization and/or lineage sorting in the genera Bambusa, Dendrocalamus, Giganto-chloa and several smaller segregates. Intergeneric hybridization had already been suggested by Goh et al (2010), and documented by Goh et al (2011). A small population of hybrids between Dendrocalamus pendulus Ridl.…”

“…Holttumochloa and Kinabaluchloa are sisters in the molecular phylogeny of Goh et al (2010). Culms leaning or scrambling, with internodes up to 1.5 m long.…”

V. Subfamily Bambusoideae Luerss. (1893)

“…Although they could not rule out monophyly for Bambusa s.s., Goh et al (2010) find no support for the existing subgeneric classification.…”
