Morphology of four species of Panicum, viz., P. antidotale, P. cymbiforme, P. decompositum and P. repens, is described. Some new morphological features of diagnostic value, which have not been reported earlier for these species, are described and illustrated. An assemblage of characters supposed to be primitive on the evolutionary scale are also described and their phylogenetic significance discussed.

Abstract


Morphology of four species of Panicum, viz., P. antidotale, P. cymbiforme, P. decompositum and P. repens, is described. Some new morphological features of diagnostic value, which have not been reported earlier for these species, are described and illustrated. An assemblage of characters supposed to be primitive on the evolutionary scale are also described and their phylogenetic significance discussed.
