• Genome Size Dynamics and Evolution in Monocots (2010, background): “Across Cyperaceae and Juncaceae, polyploidy, agmatoploidy (increase in chromosome number through fragmentation of holocentric chromosomes), and symploidy (fusion of holocentric chromosomes) are considered to have been important in generating the diversity of chromosome numbers observed [27], with sy”
• Cytotaxonomy: The end of childhood (2012, background): “However, in some other Cyperaceae genera, such as Bulbostyles (Roalson 2008) and Rhynchospora (Vanzela et al. 1998, 2001), chromosome number variation is mainly due to polyploidy with a few aneuploid numbers.”
