国产三角瓣花属(茜草科)订正

三角瓣花属Prismatomeris Thw．在Hooker(1873)和K．Schumann(1891)的茜草 科分类系统中隶于巴戟族Morindeae Miq．但在 Bremekamp(1966年)的分类系统中,其分类 位置未定。本属的胚根下位,花冠裂片镊合状排列和具针晶等特征与巴戟族相同,但它的花 离生,子房2室,胚珠盾形而着生于子房隔膜上半部等特征则与巴戟族明显不同。 因此, 将本属分立作族并置于Bremekamp所定界的茜草亚科Rubioideae中似乎较合适。 本文还提 供了经挑选的本属10对特征及其分类价值的说明。辨别了两个种：(1)将分布于中国的P. tetrandra(Roxb．)K．Schum. 修订为 “P.tetrandra (Roxb.) K. Schum. subsp. multiflora (Ridley,)Y．Z．Ruan”. (2)P. connata Y． Z. Ruan 被记述作新种它的热带新亚种是 P. connata Y． Z． Ruan subsp. hainanensis Y． Z． Ruan。

伞形科囊瓣芹属的表型分析

选取伞形科(Apiaceae)囊瓣芹属(Pternopetalum Franchet)32个分类群的60个形态学性状,利用DELTA系统的UPGMA算法进行了聚类分析。结果表明属下形成以五匹青(P.vulgare(Dunn)Hand.-Mazz.)和东亚囊瓣(P.tanakae(Franchet&Sav.)Hand.-Mazz.)为代表的两个主要表征群。两个主要表征群的分类结构和各自所包含的类群基本相应于前人研究中本属两个组的属下处理。根据全面相似性分析的结果和部分形态学特征的评估,确认了属下6个种的复合群:即五匹青、囊瓣芹(P.davidii Franchet)、散血芹(P.botrychioides(Dunn)Hand.-Mazz.)、洱源囊瓣芹(P.molle(Franchet)Hand.-Mazz.)、澜沧囊瓣芹(P.de-lavayi(Franchet)Hand.-Mazz.)和东亚囊瓣芹复合群。根据形态学特征在表型树上的分布分析表明:伞形花序的着生位置、花柱的形态、花柱基的形状和萼齿的大小等生殖特征可能是属下早期分化的关键性性状。属下主要变异类型(种的复合群和典型狭域特有种)对不同海拔区域和小生境的依赖,以及不显著的形态学分化表明:对横断山区较高的异质性生境的生态适应是囊瓣芹属类群多样化过程后期的一个重要特征。

STUDIES ON THE LEAF OF POPULUS DELTOIDES (SALICACEAE): MORPHOLOGY AND ANATOMY

Mature field- and growth-chamber-grown leaves of Populus deltoides Bartr. ex Marsh. were examined with light and scanning electron microscopes to determine their vasculature and the spatial relationships of the various orders of vascular bundles to the mesophyll. Three leaf traces, one median and two lateral, enter the petiole at the node. Progressing acropetally in the petiole these bundles are rearranged and gradually form as many as 13 tiers of vascular tissue in the petiole at the base of the lamina. (Most leaves contained seven vertically stacked tiers.) During their course through the midrib the tiers “unstack” and portions diverge outward and continue as secondary veins toward the margin on either side of the lamina. As the midvein approaches the leaf tip it is represented by a single vascular bundle which is a continuation of the original median bundle. Tertiary veins arise from the secondary veins or the midvein, and minor veins commonly arise from all orders of veins. All major veins–primaries, secondaries, intersecondaries, and tertiaries–are associated with rib tissue, while minor veins are completely surrounded by a parenchymatous bundle sheath. The bundle sheaths of tertiary, quaternary, and portions of quinternary veins are associated with bundle-sheath extensions. Minor veins are closely associated spatially with both ad- and abaxial palisade parenchyma of the isolateral leaf and also with one or two layers of paraveinal mesophyll that extend horizontally between the veins. The leaves of growth-chamber-grown plants had thinner blades, a higher proportion of air space, and greater interveinal distances than those of field-grown plants.     

Leaf architecture of some acanthaceae

Leaf architectural pattern has been studied in 27 genera and 35 species of the Acanthaceae. The major venation pattern conforms to pinnate camptodromous with eucamptodromous or festooned brochidodromous secondaries, pinnate craspedodromous inAcanthus ilicifolius and acrodromous inLepidagathis trinervis. Intersecondary veins are common. The marginal ultimate venation is looped. The areoles are variable in size. The vein endings are usually simple, linear or cuved or divide once or twice dichotomously. Isolated vein endings, tracheids, isolated free vein endings and extension cells are observed. Transfusion tracheids are seen inDicliptera verticillata. Miniature vessel elements with simple perforation plates are noticed lying free in the areole or at the end of tracheids inSeriocalyx scaber andThunbergia grandiflora.Elytraria acaulis, Nelsonia canescens andStaurogynae zeylanica exhibit venation pattern shown by majority of the taxa studied, of the Acanthaceae.     

Leaf architectural studies in the brassicaceae

The leaf architecture has been studied in 19 genera and 35 species of the Brassicaceae. The major venation pattern is pinnate craspedodromous with the exception ofAlyssum maritimum, Iberis amara, I. umbellata andMalcolmia maritima where it is pinnate-festooned brochidodromous. The number of secondary veins and their angle of divergence vary from species to species and even within the same species. Marginal ultimate venation is mostly looped occasionally incomplete. The areole size and shape is variable. The veinlets may be simple or once or twice dichotomously divided. The simple veinlets may be curved or hooked. The tracheids are either uni-, bi-, tri- or multiseriate and extraordinarily variable in size and shape. Isolated vein endings, isolated free vein endings, isolated tracheids and extension cells are observed. Myrosin cells have been observed inEruca vesicaria ssp.sativa andCochlearia cochlearioides.

为了探讨柃属植物属下等级的系统演化路线及一些种的具体分类学地位,采用脉络法对国产柃属植物34种1变种进行了叶宏观结构比较研究,结果显示柃属植物脉序类型皆为环节曲行羽状脉,一级脉表现为较高的一致性,二级脉与一级脉的夹角为锐角或近直角,二级间脉为简单型或复合型,三级脉多为结网型,叶缘末级脉序结环或不完全,网眼的形状和大小不规则,发育不完全或不完善;这些特征存在种间差异,可用于类群的比较和鉴别。研究同时采用UPGMA法对所选16个叶宏观结构性状进行聚类分析,根据系统树的5个分支,讨论了柃属植物叶的基本演化路线。研究证明叶宏观结构特征对本属植物分类及系统演化关系具有重要意义。     

Spatial distribution characteristics of stomata at the areole level in Michelia cavaleriei var. platypetala (Magnoliaceae)

Background and AimsIn hierarchically reticulate venation patterns, smaller orders of veins form areoles in which stomata are located. This study aimed to quantify the spatial relationship among stomata at the areole level.MethodsFor each of 12 leaves of M. cavaleriei var. platypetala, we assumed that stomatal characteristics were symmetrical on either side of the midrib, and divided the leaf surface on one side of the midrib into six layers equidistantly spaced along the apical–basal axis. We then further divided each layer into three positions equidistantly spaced from midrib to leaf margin, resulting in a total of 18 sampling locations. In addition, for 60 leaves, we sampled three positions from midrib to margin within only the widest layer of the leaf. Stomatal density and mean nearest neighbour distance (MNND) were calculated for each section. A replicated spatial point pattern approach quantified stomatal spatial relationships at different distances (0–300 μm).Key ResultsA tendency towards regular arrangement (inhibition as opposed to attraction or clustering) was observed between stomatal centres at distances <100 μm. Leaf layer (leaf length dimension) had no significant effect on local stomatal density, MNND or the spatial distribution characteristics of stomatal centres. In addition, we did not find greater inhibition at the centre of areoles, and in positions farther from the midrib.ConclusionsSpatial inhibition might be caused by the one-cell-spacing rule, resulting in more regular arrangement of stomata, and it was found to exist at distances up to ~100 μm. This work implies that leaf hydraulic architecture, consisting of both vascular and mesophyll properties, is sufficient to prevent important spatial variability in water supply at the areole level.     

STUDIES ON THE LEAF OF AMARANTHUS RETROFLEXUS (AMARANTHACEAE***): MORPHOLOGY AND ANATOMY

The leaf of Amaranthus retroflexus L. was examined with the light microscope to determine its vasculature and the spatial relationship of the vascular bundles to the mesophyll. Seven leaf traces enter the petiole at the node and form an arc that continues acropetally in the petiole as an anastomosing system of vascular bundles. Upon entering the lamina, the arc of bundles gradually closes and forms a ring of anastomosing bundles that constitutes the primary vein, or midvein, of the leaf. As the midvein progresses acropetally, branches of the bundles nearest the lamina diverge outward and continue as secondary veins toward the margin on either side of the lamina. Along its course the midvein undergoes a gradual reduction in number of bundles until only one remains as it approaches the leaf tip. Tertiary veins arise from the secondaries, and minor veins commonly arise from all orders of major veins, as well as from other minor veins. All of the major veins are associated with rib tissue, although the ends of the tertiaries may resemble minor veins, which are completely encircled by chlorenchymatic bundle sheaths and mesophyll cells that radiate out from the sheaths. A specialized minor vein, the fimbrial vein, occurs just inside the margin of the leaf. Most of the mesophyll cells—the so-called “Kranz mesophyll cells”—are in direct contact with the bundle sheaths, but some—the so-called “nonKranz mesophyll cells”—lack such contact. Non-Kranz mesophyll cells are especially prominent where they form a network of mostly horizontally oriented cells just above the lower epidermis. Guard cells of both the upper and lower epidermis are spatially associated with nonKranz mesophyll cells.
