Preface
The goal of this book is to present a state-of-the-art view of grass taxonomy and to summarize our current understanding of morphological variation in the grasses. Today, both aspects of agrostology have been engulfed in a flood of molecular sequence data and an equally large influx of developmental genetic data. I have tried throughout to incorporate these companion data as they affect o
