%X The existence of the C4 pathway of photosynthesis and also a novel form of Kranz-type leaf anatomy in T. irritans support the case for the inclusion of the genus Triodia in the Eragrosteae. They also provide further evidence for the suggestion that C4 plants are at a selective advantage in hot arid environments.
