Poaceae in the phylogenetic tree of life
The #Poaceae family is called “ #Süssgräser ” in German. They have been our source of #sugar and #carbohydrates for over 10’000 years, and basis of the #Neolithic Revolution: rice, maize, wheat, millet, barley… And later #sugarcane ,, with 2025.8 Megatons of harvested biomass per year!

Botanical illustration in #watercolour of Carpet grass #Anoxopus compressus showing the plant in flower, the pinkish tiller with roots, and the broad glaucous leaves along with a close up of a seed
Botanical illustration of the False oat grass #Arrhentherium elatius showing tow inflorescence, one still in the grass sheath and the other fully own revealing spikelets with awns. The pink nodes and swollen yellowish root nodes are also shown #botany #naturalscienceillustration #ilovegrass #grassillustration #drawinggrasses

Distribution of extant Leptaspis and Scrotochloa plotted on a map of modern ecoregions. Green areas indicate tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forest ecoregions. Circles indicate Leptaspis and triangles indicate Scrotochloa. Locations of the early Miocene Mush Valley (Ethiopia) and middle Miocene Kabarsero (Tugen Hills, Kenya) fossil sites are indicated by blue stars.

A photo I took yesterday of long-flowered Veldt grass in flower. The flowers are long and thin and green with pink bracts. For a full-res version of this, go to https://inaturalist.nz/observations/310728311
A screenshot from iNaturalist of the current distribution of long-flowered Veldt grass in New Zealand. It's only at one small site in Christchurch city in the South Island and a small area in Whanganui in the North Island. This is how weeds get started.
Here's a new weed to watch out for in NZ: long-flowered Veldt grass, Ehrharta longiflora.
I found one in flower yesterday. It's an annual relative of the now widespread perennial Veldt grass, Ehrharta erecta, which the NZ Plant Conservation several years ago […]

We all compete for the same food. Sorghum (100% feed), corn (80%), wheat (65%), rice, oats, barley and millets are all the same grass family and most is wasted on feed. #Poaceae

Who hasn’t heard of monocarpy among bamboos? Responding to unknown environmental cues, all the stems in the stand flower. In Duke Gardens in late 2023, Phyllostachys nigra ‘Bori’ flowered & slowly (over many months) died. #Poaceae #monocarpy #Botany 🌾🧪🌱
