A biosystematic treatment was made of the Digitaria sanguinalis complex in North America. Materials for morphological, anatomical, embryological, and cytological studies were collected from throughout this geographic area. Based on these studies six species are recognized: D. bicornis, D. ciliaris, D. sanguinalis, D. nuda, D. setigera, and D. horizontalis. No new species of new combinations were described. New biological descriptions are given for each of the recognized taxa.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a A biosystematic treatment was made of the Digitaria sanguinalis complex in North America. Materials for morphological, anatomical, embryological, and cytological studies were collected from throughout this geographic area. Based on these studies six species are recognized: D. bicornis, D. ciliaris, D. sanguinalis, D. nuda, D. setigera, and D. horizontalis. No new species of new combinations were described. New biological descriptions are given for each of the recognized taxa.
520 $a Development of the pedicelled and sessile spikelet was examined on each of the taxa by means of scanning electron microscopy. These investigations showed that epidermal cell types, patterns of nervation, and pubescence were highly variable and that these characters cannot be consistently correlated with the recognized taxa of the complex. A correlation existed between epidermal macrohairs and bulliform cells on the lemma of the lower floret. True heteromorphism was found to be not typical of North American specimens of the complex.
520 $a Detailed quantitative descriptions are given for leaf epidermal and internal anatomical characters. Based on the specimens examined, adaxial epidermal characters were used to differentiate among the taxa. However, the full range of variation within a single leaf, a specimen, or even between species is presently unknown. Anatomical characters of the leaf were found to be of the panicoid type. Based on a single sheath, radiating chlorenchyma, no endodermis, and centrifugal chloroplast it was concluded that all members of the complex were C(,4) subtype NADP-me.
520 $a A morphological examination was made on 245 populations of the complex. Phenetic and basic biostatistical techniques were used to delineate and define taxa. Principal components analysis, correlation and distance phenograms, and multivariate analysis of variance were used to show spacial relationships among population clusters. Correlation coefficients, means, ranges, standard deviations, coefficients of variation, nested analysis of variance, and discriminant analysis were used to compare and define species. Even though some intergradation occurs, six species were defined.
520 $a Normally developed mature embryo sacs of the Polygonum type were observed in all species. High germination rates occur in all taxa. Pollen viability ranged between 94% to 99% in all species. Pollen diameters of D. sanguinalis (2n = 36) were significantly smaller than the other species whereas, diameters for D. setigera (2n = 72) were significantly larger. Diameters for D. ciliaris (2n = 54) were variable, whereas measurements from populations of D. bicornis (2n = 72) did not differ significantly. Pollen diameters for D. nuda (2n = 36) averaged second largest among the species. Chromosome number cannot be consistently correlated with pollen size.
