DOI: 10.1093/aob/mcx058
Abstract: Background and Aims Subfamily Arundinoideae represents one of the last unsolved taxonomic mysteries in the grass family (Poaceae) due to the narrow and remote distributions of many of its 19 morphologically and ecologically heterogeneous genera.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/biolre/ioab244
Abstract: Abstract As a major spermadhesin first found in the seminal plasma (SP) of boars, AWN is described to fulfil a variety of reproduction related tasks. Although being the best investigated boar spermadhesin, information about its… read more here.

DOI: 10.1105/tpc.20.00424
Abstract: Apparently nonfunctional floral structures (spikelets) provide carbon for the developing grain in sorghum and two related wild species, thereby contributing to yield (fitness). Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) and its relatives in the grass tribe Andropogoneae bear… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0176148
Abstract: The awn is a long needle-like structure formed at the tip of the lemma in the florets of some grass species. It plays a role in seed dispersal and protection against animals, and can contribute… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/plants11070851
Abstract: As a wild ancestor of cultivated rice, Oryza rufipogon is domesticated into cultivated rice Oryza sativa, many agricultural traits are newly created or disappear. In particular, in wild rice, awn protects from predators and is… read more here.
