基于叶绿体四个DNA片段联合分析探讨山茶属长柄山茶组、金花茶组和超长柄茶组的系统位置与亲缘关系

为探讨山茶属茶亚属(Camellia subgen.Thea)中长柄山茶组(sect.Longipedicellata)、金花茶组(sect.Chrysantha)和超长柄茶组(sect.Longissima)的系统位置和亲缘关系,本研究选取了该属4个亚属11组28个种及2个外类群的材料,对这些材料的叶绿体4个DNA片段(rp/16、psbA-trnH、trnL-F和rp/32-trnL)进行了测序,运用邻接法(neighbor-joining)、最大简约法(maximum-parsimony)和贝叶斯推断(Bayesian inference)对获得的序列进行了联合矩阵分析.并构建基因树.基因树的拓扑结构显示:1)金花茶组包括3个平行的支系,并且长柄山茶组的模式种长柄山茶(Camellia longipedicellata)嵌于其中一个支系,因而金花茶组可能是一个并系或多系类群;2)长柄山茶与越南分布的金花茶组种类在分子系统树上构成一个单系支,暗示了长柄山茶组和金花茶组之间可能具有紧密的亲缘关系;3)超长柄茶组不是一个单系类群,该组的河口超长柄茶(C.hekouensis)位于系统树的基部,与山茶属其余种构成姐妹群.由于缺乏更广泛取样的分析,超长柄茶在山茶属中的系统位置仍然不明确,超长柄茶组与长柄山茶组的亲缘关系问题也没有得到解决.     

山茶科系统发育诠释——Ⅲ.关于金花茶组及山茶属演化若干问题

作者通过比较认为山茶属金花茶组的模式和古茶组的模式不是同一分类单位,因而取消金花茶组是不恰当的。金花茶组是一个自然的集合体。作者详细地分析了山茶属内演化的四个阶段:第一阶段表现为苞被不分化、大型、宿存、子房5室、心皮部分分离;第二阶段演化出苞被宿存和苞被脱落两个类群,前者较为原始的代表是离蕊茶织和短蕊茶组,较为进化的代表是管蕊茶组;后者较为原始的代表是半宿萼茶组、瘤果茶组、糙果茶组,较为进化的代表是油茶组、短柱茶组、红山茶组;第三阶段是苞被分化为小苞片和萼片的类群,金花茶组和长柄茶组是较为原始而茶组、超长柄茶组则是较为进化的代表;第四阶段的连蕊茶组和毛蕊茶组苞萼小型化且宿存,的代表,雌、雄蕊均高度连合,子房室不完全发育 它们只能由第三阶段具有多数小苞片的原始类群发展出来,认为把山茶属划分为四个亚属的系统是合理的。 作者还认为,花的颜色以及其他相似性状的集合是划分山茶属次级分类单位的重要依据;分类系统的自然性和实用性相结合是分类学家始终应该追随的目标,混淆不同差异的做法是不可取的。最后,作者认为山茶属没有真正的顶生花。     

山茶属油茶组、短柱茶组和红山茶组植物叶的红外光谱分析及其分类学意义

利用傅立叶红外光谱仪和OMNI采样器直接、迅速、准确地测定山茶属Camellia4组63种2变种植物叶片的红外光谱,结果表明：各分类群（种）的红外光谱具有高度特异性,其红外光谱图的变化可以作为山茶属植物属下的分类依据之一。这也暗示了利用标准红外光谱图库,可以区分和鉴定出山茶属植物的种类。经主成分分析后的红外光谱数据构建的树型聚类图与先前的形态分类结果大体一致,能将油茶组sect.Oleifera和短柱茶组sect.Paracamellia植物明显区分,并且各组中亲缘关系较近的种聚在一起。因此支持它们作为两个独立的组处理。但是,红山茶组sect.Camellia内的滇山茶亚组subsect.Lucidissima和光果红山茶亚组subsect.Reticulata植物在聚类图上很难区分,建议将这两个亚组植物进行归并。最后讨论了张宏达和闵天禄系统中存在分歧的油茶组、短柱茶组和红山茶组内的种间分类关系。     

基于ITS序列探讨山茶属金花茶组的系统发育关系

测定了分布于我国的 2 2个山茶属金花茶组的种或变种的nrDNAITS区序列 ,它们的序列长度在 476～ 496之间。GC含量都超过了 70 % ,应用Kimura2 模型计算了序列间的分化程度 ,构建了最大简约树、邻接树和最大似然树 ,分析结果表明 :( 1 )淡黄金花茶、毛籽金花茶、陇瑞金花茶、弄岗金花茶、大样金花茶和凹脉金花茶的关系较近 ;( 2 )小瓣金花茶、小花金花茶、薄叶金花茶、多瓣金花茶、夏石金花茶和龙州金花茶的关系较近。ITS区序列分析结果与AFLP分析结果相近     

山茶属茶组植物的订正

山茶属古茶组和金花茶组的分类学问题

本文重点讨论金花茶组Sect．Chrysantha H．T．Chang的分类学位置。通过对金花茶C．chrysantha（Hu）Tuyama、亮叶离蕊茶C．nitidissima Chi和分布于越南北部的多瓣山茶C．petelotii（Merr．）Sealy的模式标本和原始材料的研究考订,确认金花茶的拉丁名称应进一步更正为C．petelolii（Merr．）Sealy．对古茶组Sect．Archecamellia Sealy和金花茶组的特征性状的比较分析表明,J．R．Sealy[1] 以C．petelotii（Merr．）Sealy为模式建立的古茶组是一个自然类群,金花茶组和J．R．Sealy的古茶组之间分类学特征相同,两组的模式同为一种-C．petelotii, 从而认为金花茶组不能成立,被首次归并到古茶组中。同时认为《山茶属植物的系统研究》一书改变了古茶组的分类学概念和转移了组的模式是不妥的。通过研究,确认古茶组共有16种和3变种,除原古茶组的7种外,包括连蕊茶组Sect．Theopsis中的C．indochinensis和金花茶组中6种和3变种被转移到本组之中,以及本文提出的两个新种。原金花茶组其余16种（包括未正式发表的4种）、2变种和3个变型均作为相应种或变种的同物异名归并。此外,还讨论了各种错误鉴定和有关分化与分布的问题。     

堇菜属组间的系统发育与亲缘关系：基于trnL-trnF、psbA trnH、rpL16、ITS序列，细胞学以及形态学证据

以鼠鞭草(Hybanthus enneaspermus)、鳞隔堇(Scyphellandra pierrei)、雷诺木(Rinorea bengalensis)作为外类群,对堇菜属(Viola)20个类群的trnL trnF序列,17个类群的psbA trnH、rpL16序列以及1个类群的nrDNA ITS序列进行了测定,并从GenBank下载相应的序列,运用最大简约法以及贝叶斯推论法进行系统分析,构建系统发育树。结果表明：堇菜亚属(subgen.Viola)不是一个单系类群,并明确了堇菜属部分组间类群的亲缘关系。本文还结合形态与细胞学证据对堇菜属进行性状演化的推测。结果表明：1）直立茎较匍匐茎、莲座状茎（叶基生）原始;2）托叶边缘长流苏状与托叶1/2~3/4合生分别是鸟嘴柱头堇菜组（sect.Trigonocarpae）和合生托叶组（sect.Adnatae）演化路线的重要性状标志;3）花柱样式从柱头无喙演化至柱头有喙,并由柱头简单演化至柱头复杂,再趋向于柱头简化。

Phylogeny of Camellia sects Longipedicellata,Chrysantha and Longissima (Theaceae) Based on Sequence Data of Four Chloroplast DNA Loci

We focused on the systematic positions and relationships of three sections of Camellia subgenThea of Theaceae, i.e., sect.Longipedicellata, sect.Chrysantha (golden camellias) and sect.Longissima by using four chloroplast DNA regions (rpl16, psbA trnH, trnL F & rpl32 trnL). We sampled 28 species representing four subgenus, 11 sections in Camellia and two outgroups. Combined analyses of chloroplast DNA sequence data sets are performed with the neighbor joining, maximum parsimony and Bayesian inference methods, and the gene trees are constructed. The topologies of gene trees revealed that: 1) sect. Chrysantha is paraphyletic or polyphyletic, containing three parallel lineages and Camellia longipedicellata (type of sectLongipedicellata) nested inside; 2) all four species from Vietnam, together with C. longipedicellata, forming a well supported monophyletic clade, which implies the close relationship between sect. Longipedicellata and sect.Chrysantha; and 3) sectLongissima is not monophyletic because C.hekouensis is the sister to the rest of Camellia species. The systematic position of C.longissima and the relationship between sect.Longissima and sect.Longipedicellata are unsolved.     

Systematic Position of Allium macrostemon Based on nrDNA ITS and cpDNA trnL-F Sequence Data

Allium macrostemon is an important medicinal and edible plant. Its systematic position and taxonmical classification remain controversial to date. To explore this issue, we reconstructed phylogenetic relationships among Amacrostemon and other related taxa using nrDNA ITS and cpDNA trnL F markers. The phylogenetic trees derived from Bayesian inference and maximum parsimony analysis showed that Amacrostemon is monophyletic, and has a close relationship with some species of polyphyletic sections Caerulea and Pallasia instead of sections Codonoprasum and Allium. The including of Amacrostemon within section Allium was not supported by both molecular data and morphological characters of spathe, filaments and ovary. Allium macrostemon should be included in a new section, however further studies using additional samples (especially those from Central Asia) is necessary. In addition, we also provided a discussion on the phylogenetic relationships among four original plants (Amacrostemon, Achinense, Acaeruleum and Aneriniflorum) of Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus and systematic position of partial species of section Pallasia.     

What is the phylogenetic placement of Dipteronia dyerana Henry? An example of plant species placement based on nucleotide sequences

Abstract

DNA sequence data have been widely used to evaluate species delimitations and examine infraspecific relationships. However, species placements inferred from different nucleotide sequences are frequently in conflict. As an example of plant species placement based on nucleotide sequences, the phylogenetic placement of Dipteronia dyerana Henry (Aceraceae) was analyzed in the present study. The study species included eight Acer species (from different sections of Acer), two Dipteronia species, and two outgroup taxa. Phylogenetic trees based on five datasets (ITS, trnL‐F, trnD‐trnT, psbM‐trnD, and rpl16 regions) as well as their combined datasets were generated by using maximum parsimony (MP) and maximum likelihood (ML) analyses. Further analyses were conducted to compare the strict consensus trees based on single regions and the combination of different regions. The results revealed a significant discrepancy among the phylogenetic placements of D. dyerana, inferred from various sequences. Phylogenetic trees using MP analysis based on trnD‐trnT, rpl16, and the four chloroplast combined sequences supported the genus Dipteronia as a monophyletic group, while in the other trees D. dyerana was positioned either in parallel with D. sinensis and Acer species or within the genus Acer. In ML analysis, only rpl16 and the four chloroplast combined sequence datasets supported the genus Dipteronia as a monophyletic group. We concluded that, although significant genetic differentiation occurred between D. dyerana and D. sinensis, D. dyerana was more advanced than D. sinensis. However, whether Dipteronia is monophyletic remains to be further investigated, e.g., by using more closely related taxa and more sequences. Furthermore, in addition to internal transcribed spacer sequences, more chloroplast gene sequences should be used for phylogenetic analyses of species.     

Infrageneric Phylogeny of the Genus Viola (Violaceae) Based on trnL trnF,psbA trnH,rpL16, ITS Sequences,Cytological and Morphological Data

The sequences of chloroplast trnL trnF (20 species), psbA trnH(17 species), rpL16 (17 species) and ITS(one species) regions of the genus Viola were analyzed for phylogenetic relationships in the genus with the maximum parsimony (MP) and Bayesian inference (BI) analyses. Hybanthus enneaspermus, Scyphellandra pierrei and Rinorea bengalensis were used as outgroups. Additional sequences corresponding to the same DNA regions for the other taxa in Viola were downloaded from GenBank. The phylogenetic tree indicated that subgenViola is not monophyletic. Moreover, some intrageneric relationships in Viola were clarified. Combining sequences with morphological characters and chromosome number, the inference of morphological evolution in Viola was put forward. It was inferred that: 1) erect stems might well be more primitive than stolons and rosettes; 2) long fimbriate margin in stipules and stipules with 1/2-3/4 adnate part might represent distinctive evolutionary trends of sectTrigonocarpae and of sectAdnatae respectively; 3) species with stigmatic beaks might have been derived from ancestors without beaks; simple structure stigmas transformed into complex structure stigmas, and then transformed back to simple stucture patterns.     

五种金花茶组植物的耐寒性比较研究

金花茶组植物是世界珍稀、濒危的观赏植物,具有极高的观赏价值和药用价值.为了比较金花茶组植物的耐寒性,以五种金花茶组植物为材料,采用人工模拟低温环境的方法对其2年生叶片进行低温胁迫处理,应用电导法研究五种金花茶种质在20℃(常温对照)、8℃、-2℃、-7℃、-12℃、-17℃、-22℃和-27℃低温下相对电导率的变化,配合Logistic方程,测定其低温半致死温度(LT50),以及叶片中游离脯氨酸、可溶性糖和丙二醛的含量.结果表明:五种金花茶的低温半致死温度(LT50)范围为-14.58~-12.74℃,其中金花茶为-14.58℃、龙州金花茶为-14.27℃、柠檬黄金花茶为-13.44℃、直脉金花茶为-13.09℃、东兴金花茶-12.74℃.低温半致死温度能反映金花茶种质的耐寒性,金花茶和龙州金花茶耐寒性强,其次为柠檬黄金花茶和直脉金花茶,东兴金花茶耐寒性较弱.在降温过程中,五种金花茶叶片相对电导率随温度降低呈S型上升,与温度呈负相关;脯氨酸、可溶性糖和丙二醛含量均呈现先上升后下降的趋势.同一低温条件下,半致死温度低的金花茶脯氨酸和可溶性糖的含量更高,而丙二醛含量更低.该研究结果为金花茶组植物耐寒种质选育提供了科学依据,为人工种植金花茶提供了技术支持.     

Phylogeny of korean rubus (rosaceae) based on its (nrDNA) and trnL/F intergenic region (cpdna)

We examined the phylogeny of the genusRubus in Korea using an internal transcribed spacer (ITS) of the nuclear ribosomal DNA and a trnL-trnF (trnL/F) intergenic region of the chloroplast DNA. In all, 21 ingroup species (1.2 kb for each species) were analyzed using parsimony, resulting in 672 aligned sequences from ITS, and 502 bases with trnL/F. Individual and combined analysis of ITS and trnL/F data proved that the genusRubus is a monophyletic group. This phylogeny also substantiated a previous sectional classification scheme rather than a subgerius classification scheme. However, our results did not support the earlier sectional classification by Focke (sect.Corchorifolii), but did support the sectional classification of Nakai: sect.Crataegifolii (R. crataegifolius, R. takesimensis andR. trifidus), and sect.Villosii (R. corchorifolius). Most of these species, which are found in Korea and belong to subg.Idaeobatus, appeared in two different groups in all data sets. This suggests that this subgenus is a polyphyletic group that has gone through at least two independent evolutionary processes. The taxa, when mapped onto the combined tree, showed that the occurrence of their morphological characters of simple and compound leaves was concurrent in KoreanRubus. ITS sequence data were consistent overall with the geographical distribution of each species. Furthermore, the trnL/F sequence data provided phylogenetic information within closely related species.
