• A worldwide phylogenetic classification of the Poaceae (Gramineae) II: An update and a comparison of two 2015 classifications (2017, background): “The crown age for the grasses has been estimated to be 71 9million years old (Ma) based on fossil pollen and spikelet calibration (Vicentini et al., 2008) while the estimated crown age using only macrofossils is 51–55 Ma (Christin et al.”
• Biogeography of the grasses (Poaceae): a phylogenetic approach to reveal evolutionary history in geographical space and geological time (2010, background): “…and Chloridoideae include exclusively C4 grasses (except one genus and one species, respectively) and the dates of appearance are in agreement with recent studies (Christin et al., 2008; Vicentini et al., 2008; Bouchenak-Khelladi et al., 2009), although the molecular dating techniques differed.”
• Photorespiration and the evolution of C4 photosynthesis. (2012, background): “Higher probabilities of origin occur during the Oligocene–early Miocene transition (25 Mya), the mid-Miocene epoch (15 Mya, during a climatic warm spell), and approximately 5 Mya (21, 25, 138).”
• The origins and diversification of C4 grasses and savanna‐adapted ungulates (2009, background): “Two major clades have been resolved, the BEP (Bambusoideae, Ehrhartoideae and Pooideae) and PACCMAD clades (Panicoideae, Arundinoideae, Chloridoideae, Centothecoideae, Micrairoideae, Aristidoideae and Danthonioideae).”
