Diversification of the Old World Salsoleae s.l. (Chenopodiaceae): Molecular Phylogenetic Analysis of Nuclear and Chloroplast Data Sets and a Revised Classification (2007, background): “…two anatomical types that perform C4 photosynthesis without Kranz anatomy in one species of Suaeda (Borszczowia) and two species of Bienertia (Freitag and Stichler 2000, 2002; Voznesenskaya et al. 2001b, 2002; Akhani et al. 2003, 2005), has attracted considerable interest in this intriguing group.”
European plants with C4 photosynthesis: geographical and taxonomic distribution and relations to climate parameters (2010, background): “…C4 photosynthesis may occur in particularly compartmented single individual cells of Chenopodiaceae (Edwards, Franceschi & Voznesen- skaya, 2004; Akhani et al., 2005; Voznesenskaya et al., 2001, 2005b; Park et al., 2009), a conspicuous anatomical trait of C4 plants is the so-called Kranz…”
