Carex malipoensis , a new species from southeast Yunnan, China, is here described and illustrated. It is morphologically similar to C. trichophylla in sect. Euprepes, but differs from it by its longer inflorescences and peduncles, pendulous spikes, hispidulous female glumes, densely hispidulous utricles, and longer nutlets.

... detailed morphological comparison of the potential new species and the seven species of C. sect. Euprepres is summarized in Table 1. Morphologically, the new species is most similar to C. tricophylla but can be distinguished by the characteristics of culms (70-105 cm long, 2-4 mm thick, sides ribbed in the new species vs. culms 45-65 cm long, 1-1.5 mm thick, sides concave in C. tricophylla); leaf sheaths (1.5-7 cm long vs. 1.2-2 cm long); inflorescences (20-45 cm long, peduncles up to 9 cm long vs. 3-15 cm long, more or less exserted), spikes (15-33 mm long, pendulous vs. 7-10 mm long, erect), female glumes (hispidulous vs. glabrous), utricles (densely hispidulous vs. glabrous below, adpressed-hispid above), and nutlets (4-4.5 mm long vs. 2.25-2.5 mm long). ...Similar publications
Background and objectives
Proximal hypospadias is considered the most severe subtype of the hypospadias spectrum and represents approximately one-fifth of the total cases. It is well-evidenced by many studies that the rate of postoperative complications following the repair of this complex subtype is significantly higher when compared to the distal...
Background:
The inner ear organ is a delicate tissue consisting of hair cells (HCs) and supporting cells (SCs).The mammalian inner ear HCs are terminally differentiated cells that cannot spontaneously regenerate in adults. Epithelial non-hair cells (ENHCs) in the utricle include HC progenitors and SCs, and the progenitors share similar characteris...
The mouse utricle model system is the best-characterized ex vivo preparation for studies of mature mammalian hair cells (HCs). Despite the many advantages of this model system, efficient and reliable quantification of HCs from cultured utricles has been a persistent challenge with this model system. Utricular HCs are commonly quantified by counting...

Carex qingyuanensis, a new species of Cyperaceae from Guangdong Province, China, is described and illustrated. The new species is morphologically similar to Carex peliosanthifolia F. T. Wang & Tang ex P. C. Li, but it can be distinguished by the racemose inflorescence branches appearing single (rarely binate or ternate) (vs. binate or ternate), one (rarely two or three) (vs. 1–3) spiked, male part of linear-cylindrical spikes much longer than the female part (vs. just male part short-cylindrical and slightly longer than female part), style base thickened (vs. not thickened) and perigynium horizontally patent with a short (vs. long and excurved) beak. Phylogenetic analysis, based on the two nuclear DNA regions (ETS 1f and ITS) and three chloroplast DNA regions (matK, ndhF and rps16), suggests that the new species belongs to sect. Siderostictaes.s. of subg. Siderosticta and shows a closer phylogenetic relationship to Carex scaposa C. B. Clarke.
