中国苦苣苔科植物新资料——小花线柱苣苔

该文报道了产自中国西藏自治区墨脱县境内的线柱苣苔属(Rhynchotechum Blume)中国分布新记录——小花线柱苣苔(R. parviflorum Blume)。该新记录种常生长在林中溪流附近的崖壁以及次生林下阴湿生境中,主要辨别特征为叶基本对生,花萼裂片被绢毛,花梗被黄褐色绒毛,花冠筒较小,子房具短柔毛,果无毛至微柔毛。印度学者于2020年记载为印度新分布,而原始文献中记录的凭证标本采集点位于中国西藏自治区墨脱县境内,故对原文记述的产地信息提出质疑。同时,在前人的研究中部分馆藏的线柱苣苔属植物标本被认定为该新记录种,在此一并提出该新记录种在中国的分布地理信息和详细描述。     

云南东南部苦苣苔科植物一新种——南溪蛛毛苣苔

中越边境的石灰岩地区不仅具有较丰富的植物多样性,而且特有现象十分突出。该文描述了中越边境石灰岩地区位于云南东南部河口境内的苦苣苔科一个植物新种——南溪蛛毛苣苔(Paraboea nanxiensis Lei Cai & Gui L. Zhang)。该新种在叶片的形状和毛被、花的颜色、花序短于叶片以及雌蕊无毛等性状上与产自广西那坡的垂花蛛毛苣苔(P. nutans D. Fang & D. H. Qin)最为相似。两者的主要区别在于:该新种的花萼裂片先端最宽且光滑无毛,花冠浅宽钟形、花冠筒不明显、花冠管内面基部白色,花丝无毛以及蒴果稍微扭曲; 该新种生于云南海拔530～610 m的河口及马关一带,而垂花蛛毛苣苔产于广西那坡的海拔900～1 150 m段的石灰山。此外还讨论了该新种与蛛毛苣苔属其他几种基生叶类型的近缘种[如三萼蛛毛苣苔(P. trisepala W. H. Chen & Y. M. Shui)、蔓耗蛛毛苣苔(P. manhaoensis Y. M. Shui & W. H. Chen)及河口蛛毛苣苔(P. hekouensis Y. M. Shui & W. H. Chen)]的区别,并提供了相关物种的彩色图片及区分说明,主模式标本存放于中国科学院昆明植物研究所标本馆(KUN)中。近年来,由于中越边境的石灰岩地区不断有新分类群或新记录物种的发现,所以很有必要加强对该区域的植物多样性考察。     

越南蛛毛苣苔属(苦苣苔科)植物新记录

报道了2个苦苣苔科(Gesneriaceae)蛛毛苣苔属(Paraboea)(C.B.Clarke)Ridl.植物在越南的分布新记录,并列出了每个种的标本引证和地理分布情况.     

苦苣苔科一新种——闽西异叶苣苔

作者于2020年在福建长汀进行林木种质资源调查时发现了一种苦苣苔科异叶苣苔属植物,经过2年多次跟踪调查鉴定,确认为苦苣苔科一新种——闽西异叶苣苔(Whytockia minxiensis),并提供了该新种的描述和图片资料。闽西异叶苣苔子房2室,雌蕊柱头椭圆形,叶背密被短柔毛,花萼具毛,可与相近种台湾异叶苣苔(Whytockia sasakii)区分。模式标本存放于福建农林大学林学院标本馆(FJFC)。     

苦苣苔科植物Lysionotus bijantiae的名实订正

通过查阅相关文献和标本,作者发现近期发表的苦苣苔科吊石苣苔属植物一新种——Lysionotus bijantiae D. Borah & A. Joe实为鉴定错误,应是汉克苣苔属的长圆叶汉克苣苔[Henckelia oblongifolia(Roxb.)D. J. Middleton & Mich. Möller] [原长圆叶唇柱苣苔Chirita oblongifolia(Roxb.)Sinclair]。Lysionotus bijantiae的模式标本采集于中国西藏东南部地区的喜马拉雅南坡,该地区苦苣苔植物多样性较为丰富。作者因其花具2枚发育雄蕊而将其归于吊石苣苔属,花萼分裂不达基部而与吊石苣苔属其他相关种类比较,而忽略了其种子先端不具附属物的特征。通过电镜扫描观察到,该种在墨脱境内居群以及其模式产地居群的种子均无附属物,从而证实了该种不是吊石苣苔属的物种,而是属于汉克苣苔属。因此,作者将Lysionotus bijantiae处理为Henckelia oblongifolia的新异名,同时提供了长圆叶汉克苣苔的彩色图片(含种子扫描图)、选定模式标本,并给出了吊石苣苔属和汉克苣苔属的区分方法和主要识别特征,不仅为这两个属的物种鉴定提供了参考,而且避免更多的物种分类混淆问题出现。     

钟冠报春苣苔(苦苣苔科)的分类鉴定

原唇柱苣苔属(Chirita Buch.-Ham. ex D. Don)为一个人为界定的属, 2011年在分子系统学研究的基础上对该属及其近缘属开展了系统发育重建工作,其中绝大部分的原唇柱苣苔属唇柱苣苔组(Sect. Gibbosaccus C. B. Clark)的物种被并入了广义报春苣苔属(Primulina Hance)。然而,由于历史原因和早期经典分类学在研究方法上的局限性以及对现报春苣苔属部分物种的营养器官与生殖器官的认知不够,该属下一些物种的分类仍存在一些问题,亟待深入研究。比如,在对中国和越南分布的苦苣苔科植物开展研究的过程中,作者发现两个报春苣苔属的物种——广布于中国西南和华南直至中南半岛中部的钟冠报春苣苔[Primulina swinglei(Merr.)Mich. Möller & A. Weber]命名人和原被认为是中国与广西特有种的疏花报春苣苔[P. laxiflora(W. T. Wang)Yin. Z. Wang]之间的鉴定存在分类学问题,需要进一步厘清两者之间的关系。该文对这两个物种进行了形态比较,同时通过对这两种植物的原始描述对比、植物标本检查、栽培观察以及野外实地观察,确定疏花报春苣苔是钟冠报春苣苔的异名。此外,还明确了钟冠报春苣苔的后选指定模式标本。     

后蕊苣苔属花粉形态的补充研究

首次对后蕊苣苔属(Opithandra)文采后蕊苣苔(O. wentsaii)、龙南后蕊苣苔(O. burttii)和裂檐苣苔(O. pumila)的花粉进行扫描电镜研究。结果表明:三者花粉形状与外壁纹饰差异显著。在前人研究基础上,综合花粉形状及外壁纹饰特征,将后蕊苣苔属花粉分为四大类群:第一大类群包括O. burttii、O. sinohenryi、O. primuloides和O. fargesii,该类群花粉近球形,网状纹饰,网脊较宽,宽度不均匀; 第二大类群包括 O. acaulis和O. pumila,该类群花粉近球形,网状纹饰不明显,刺密且显著; 第三大类群包括O. dalzielii、O. cinerea和O. dinghushanensis,该类群花粉近球形或扁球形,网状纹饰,网脊较窄,宽度均匀; 第四大类群包括O. wentsaii和O. obtusidentata,该类群花粉长椭圆球形,网状纹饰,网脊较窄,宽度均匀。结果与王文采对该属的分类系统不完全一致,对该属分类提出一些建议。     

越南苦苣苔科植物国家级分布新记录——大苞漏斗苣苔

漏斗苣苔属(Raphiocarpus Chun)是分布于中国至中南半岛一带的小属,主要产于中国华南西南抵越南北部至中部,但之前中越两国共有分布的该属物种仅有3个种。大苞漏斗苣苔[Raphiocarpus begoniifolius(Lévl.)Burtt]一度被认为是中国的特有种,仅分布在中国的广西西北部、贵州西南部、云南东南部和湖北西北部,尚未见有在越南的相关研究报道。该文首次报道了越南植物区系中大苞漏斗苣苔的国家级分布新记录,使得中越两国共有分布的该属物种上升到了4个种,并着重讨论了大苞漏斗苣苔与其近缘种长筒漏斗苣苔[Raphiocarpus macrosiphon(Hance)Burtt]的区别特征,进一步完善了越南所分布的漏斗苣苔属植物检索表。根据中越两国的各自与联合野外考察工作对该种的濒危现状进行了讨论,为中越两国开展该种乃至该属植物的保育提供了直接证据。凭证标本保存于越南生物资源与生态研究所标本馆(HN)中。     

福建苦苣苔科植物一新种——邵武报春苣苔

该研究描述了产于福建省邵武市的苦苣苔科(Gesneriaceae)报春苣苔属(Primulina)一新种——邵武报春苣苔(P. shaowuensis X. X. Su, Liang Ma & S. P. Chen)。形态学观察结果表明,邵武报春苣苔与休宁报春苣苔(P. xiuningensis)最相近,二者的主要区别为：邵武报春苣苔的花筒近钟形,在中部膨大;花冠乳白色;退化雄蕊3,顶端稍显头状。经核糖体ITS和两个质体标记(atpB rbcL 和 rpL32 trnL)进行系统发育分析结果表明,邵武报春苣苔在系统发育树上具有独立的位置,支持邵武报春苣苔为苦苣苔科植物一新种,且休宁报春苣苔和大齿报春苣苔(P. juliae)为其姐妹类群。     

卷丝苣苔和勐醒芒毛苣苔抗氧化活性研究

利用3种方法DPPH、ABTS和FRAP分析两种苦苣苔科植物卷丝苣苔和勐醒芒毛苣苔提取物总抗氧化作用.在4种提取物中,卷丝苣苔甲醇提取物对DPPH自由基的清除能力(IC50=4.92μg/mL)比阳性对照BHT作用强(IC50=18.79 μg/mL);卷丝苣苔甲醇提取物对ABTS自由基的清除能力(IC50=11.10 μg/mL)比BHT(IC50=6.04 μg/mL)略低;卷丝苣苔甲醇提取物还原Fe3+的能力(FRAP=2403.77±38.05 μmol TE/g)比BHT(FRAP=1748.49±3.46 μmol TE/g)高.在4种提取物中,卷丝苣苔甲醇提取物抗氧化能力最高.     

加查银莲花(毛茛科)的名实订正

通过标本检查, 发现毛茛科加查银莲花(Anemone jiachaensis W. T. Wang)与西藏银莲花(A. tibetica W. T. Wang)属于同一种植物, 故将前者处理为后者的异名。加查银莲花发表时被置于鹅掌草组[A. sect. Stolonifera (Ulbr.) Juz.], 但其花粉为三沟而非多沟, 与岩生银莲花亚组[A. subsect. Rupicolae (Tamura ex Chaudhary & Trifonova) Starod.]的岩生银莲花(A. rupicola Camb.)(西藏银莲花亦属于该亚组)的花粉类型一致, 而与鹅掌草组植物的多沟花粉明显不同, 从而进一步表明加查银莲花与西藏银莲花确为同一种植物而且应为岩生银莲花亚组的成员。     

西藏蓝钟花属一新变型——白花裂叶蓝钟花

描述了桔梗科蓝钟花属裂叶蓝钟花(Cyananthus lobatus Wall.ex Benth.)的一个新变型——白花裂叶蓝钟花(Cyananthus lobatus Wall.ex Benth.f.albiflorus J.Luo et S.L.Wang)。原变型的花冠为紫蓝色至淡蓝色,而新变型花冠为白色。     

Ultrastruktur und Verteilung des Pollenkitts in der insekten- und windblütigen GattungAcer (Aceraceae)

Several insect- and wind-pollinated species of the genusAcer have been investigated and compared in regard to pollen stickiness. The considerable amount of very inhomogeneous pollenkitt inA. negundo remains on the loculus wall or is deposited inside the exine cavities; thus the pollen is powdery. The small amount of non-homogeneous, granular pollenkitt inA. campestre mostly disappears into the exine cavities; only small droplets appear on the tectum surface; the pollen stickiness therefore is only moderate. On the other hand,A. pseudoplatanus andA. opalus produce an average amount of granular pollenkitt, which is deposited partially inside the exine and partially as a slender film on the tectum surface; in both the pollen is sticky.A. platanoides contains a great deal of granular and homogeneous pollenkitt; it does not only fill up the exine cavities but also extends as a thick, ± homogeneous, non-granular layer of pollenkitt over the tectum surface; therefore, the pollen is very sticky.—The characteristics of pollen agglutination together with other aspects of floral biology illustrate the wide spectrum between unequivocal entomophily and anemophily within the genusAcer: WhileA. negundo is anemophilous andA. platanoides is entomophilous, the remaining species investigated have a pollination syndrome with entomophilous and anemophilous features and are thus amphiphilous. The evolution withinAcer is tending not only towards dioecy, but also towards anemophily.

Bee-pollination inHibbertia fasciculata (Dilleniaceae)

In direct contrast to mostHibbertia spp., the flowers ofH. fasciculata R. Br. ex D. C. bear only a single whorl of stamens and these stamens are arranged separately (not in typical bundles). The short filaments are appressed to the three carpels so that the inflated, porose and introrsive anthers form a centralized cluster obscuring the three ovaries. The three slender styles emerge at right angles from between the filaments. These styles curve upward and the stigmas form the three points of a triangle; each stigma is approximately one millimeter outside the centralized cluster of anthers. The flowers are nectarless and bear a bright yellow corolla. A pungent and unpleasant fragrance appears to be concentrated within the pollenkitt. When native bees attempt to forage for the pollen, within the cluster of anthers, the ventrally deposited loads of pollen, on the bees' abdomens, contact the outer triangle of stigmas. The major pollinators ofH. fasciculata are female bees in the polylectic genera,Lasioglossum (subgenusChilalictus, Halictidae) andLeioproctus (Colletidae). These bees carry an average of more than two pollen taxa when they are caught foraging onH. fasciculata. 78% of the 47 bees, captured onH. fasciculata carried the pollen from at least one sympatric taxon bearing nectariferous flowers (e.g., genera in theMyrtaceae, Compositae, andEpacridaceae). The pollination biology ofH. fasciculata is assessed in relation to the known radiation of bee-pollinated flowers in the genusHibbertia, and within theDilleniaceae s. l.     

The pollination biology ofHibbertia stricta (Dilleniaceae)

The exines of pollen grains ofHibbertia stricta (DC.)R. Br. exF. Muell. (Sect.Pleurandra) wear an oily, yellow pollen coat that stains positively for lipids. The pollen is collected by asocial bees, exclusively. The most common floral foragers are members of the genusLasioglossum (subgenusChilalictus;Halictidae) and they harvest pollen via thoracic vibration. As these bees cling to the inflated anthers their pollen smeared bodies come in contact with either of the two wet, nonpapillate stigmas. The stigmas respond positively to cytochemical tests for the presence of esterase immediately following expansion of the corolla, indicating the effective pollination period. The foraging patterns of the bees are narrowly to broadly polylectic. AsH. stricta flowers are nectarless, it is not surprising that bees bearing mixed pollen loads always carry the pollen of at least one nectariferous, coblooming plant. The pollination biology ofH. stricta is compared with otherHibbertia spp. and with pollen flowers in general.     

基于ITS序列的中国外来苋属植物系统关系分析

通过ITS序列对21种中国外来苋属植物进行系统进化关系研究。通过ITS序列种间、种内遗传距离分析,发现苋属种间变异为0~0.055 1,种内变异为0~0.009 2。使用TAXON DNA软件分析ITS序列种间、种内变异的分布图看出规律,结果表明苋属ITS序列的种间变异适中,种间变异明显大于种内变异。采用最大似然法(ML)构建的系统树将中国苋属分为5或6个进化支(根据自展支持率取值不同)。异株苋亚属长芒苋和苋亚属刺苋聚类在一起,西部苋和糙果苋单独成为一个进化支。苋亚属中苋组苋亚组反枝苋和绿穗苋亚组鲍氏苋有着更近的亲缘关系,苋组苋亚组尾穗苋和绿穗苋亚组绿穗苋、繁穗苋等亲缘关系更近。白苋亚属分为2或3个类群,根据自展支持率取值不同,合被苋可以和白苋、北美苋并为一支,也可以单独成为一支。综上所述,该文认为苋属经典分类体系中3亚属或2~3组的分类地位不成立,建议中国苋属采取5组2亚组或6组2亚组的分类体系。5组2亚组分别由长芒苋组、糙果苋组、苋组(苋亚组和绿穗苋亚组)、白苋组和凹头苋组组成。其中,合被苋也可从白苋组分出,单独构成1组,形成6组2亚组的分类体系。表明该序列对苋属大部分种类分类效果较好,对西部苋和糙果苋复合群,绿穗苋复合群以及白苋亚属的分类价值不高。     

Rhynchospora pseudomacrostachya, a new Brazilian species of Cyperaceae

Rhynchospora pseudomacrostachya (Cyperaceae) is restricted to the southern Brazil states of Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina. Previously, material ofR. pseudomacrostachya had been thought to belong toR. corniculata var.macrostachya (Torr. ex A. Gray) Britton (R. macrostachya Torr. ex A. Gray) of North America. However,R. pseudomacrostachya can be distinguished from the North American taxon on the basis of achene and inflorescence characters.     

中华白花丹参与其近缘种的形态分类鉴定

该研究采用光学显微镜和扫描电镜相结合的方法,对中华白花丹参(Salvia sinealba)与其近缘种丹参(S.miltiorrhiza)及山东丹参(S.shandongensis)根的解剖学、叶表皮、花及花粉粒进行了系统地比较研究。结果表明:中华白花丹参(S.sinealba)根的中央部位有多数薄壁细胞,在根横切面射线薄壁细胞间及韧皮部外侧与次生皮层部位有多数裂隙;叶片上表皮细胞外平周壁具有细密平行丝状褶皱(SEM);花冠白色;花粉粒椭圆形,外壁具网状雕纹,网眼较大,多角形,少为单穿孔。上述这些显著的特征,不仅为中华白花丹参在植物分类学上的地位提供了形态解剖学依据,而且为近缘种丹参及山东丹参的分类鉴定提供了佐证,同时也为中华白花丹参这一特有新资源的保护和开发利用提供了资料。     

Breeding system of the subantarctic plant species Pringlea antiscorbutica R. Br. and search for potential insect pollinators in the Kerguelen Islands

The reproductive biology of Pringlea antiscorbutica R. Br. (Brassicaceae), an endemic species from the southern Indian Ocean islands, is investigated here. Controlled crosses were performed between plants grown in a common garden on the Kerguelen Islands. Searching for potential insect pollinators, we investigated the flying ability of all insects known from the Kerguelen Islands. We showed evidence for self-compatibility, low pollen limitation in the absence of a biotic pollen vector and slight selfing depression in P. antiscorbutica. The insects present on the islands are mostly wingless and are not likely to be efficient pollinators of this species. Since P. antiscorbutica shows morphological adaptations to insect pollination despite the absence of pollinators in its present range, we conclude that this species recently evolved from insect pollination to wind and/or autonomous pollination.     

三倍体丹参杂交种的花粉形态研究

三倍体丹参是以二倍体丹参为父本、人工染色体加倍的四倍体白花丹参为母本杂交选育的杂交种。为深入了解三倍体丹参花粉的特性,以及为三倍体种质利用提供孢粉学依据,该文以二倍体丹参为对照,研究了三倍体丹参杂交种花粉的形态变异规律。利用光学显微镜和扫描电镜对二倍体和三倍体丹参的花粉萌发沟、外壁纹饰、花粉粒形状等特征进行了显微和超微形态观察,综合进行了花粉形态差异比较,并对花粉大小和形状数据进行了差异显著性分析和正态检验。结果表明:(1)二倍体丹参为6沟花粉,三倍体花粉萌发沟有6沟和8沟两种类型,沟内疣状颗粒分布不匀,出现畸形萌发沟。(2)二倍体和三倍体花粉外壁均为网状雕纹。二倍体花粉网眼内具多个多边形穿孔,穿孔大; 6沟和8沟两种类型的三倍体花粉网眼无穿孔或仅有几个小穿孔,6沟和8沟花粉的外壁雕纹相同。(3)三倍体花粉的极轴长(P)和赤道宽(E)均值显著小于二倍体花粉,花粉大小呈偏正态分布,P*E的差异系数大于二倍体花粉,且有极值存在。三倍体和二倍体丹参的萌发沟和雕纹存在差异,而花粉形状差异不显著。综上结果表明三倍体丹参花粉在倍性效应和杂合性的双重影响下发生了形态变异,且有多种形态变化。
