亚洲茜草科粗叶木属及其相关属植物花粉形态研究

利用光学显微镜和扫描电镜研究了茜草科粗叶木属Lasianthus 16种2亚种、1变种及相关的5属5种的花粉形态。粗叶木属的花粉属于广孢型, 单粒。一般中等大小, 绝大多数为圆球形, 少数为近长球形或长球形。花粉形态特征, 特别是在萌发孔和外壁纹饰上表现出多样化。根据孔沟的数目或是否具有内孔, 可以将萌发孔分为(3-)4-(-5)孔沟和3孔。在所观察的这些种中, 萌发孔以3-4孔沟为主要类型, 比例为62.4%。外壁纹饰可分为细网状、粗网状和穴状。有部分种的花粉极面有穴状纹饰, 其余均为网状纹饰。网眼一般椭圆形、近圆形、三角形或者不规则形。少数外壁纹饰网脊上有颗粒状雕纹或模糊的颗粒, 网脊轮廓线呈波浪形, 一般凸出且平滑。大部分种的花粉具有沟膜, 沟膜上具有瘤状突起或小颗粒状, 沟边缘一般较平滑, 或粗糙, 有的种具有沟桥。     

中国木犀属花粉形态研究及其系统学意义

观察了中国木犀属4组21种植物的花粉形态。花粉为圆球形或近长球形,外壁表面均具网状纹饰。大多数种类都具有三孔沟的萌发孔,极少四孔沟,或六萌发孔。内孔明显或不明显,有9种植物同时存在具三孔沟和具三沟二种类型的花粉及中间过渡类型(显脉木犀同时存在具三拟孔沟和具四拟孔沟)。很多特点表明,木犀属花粉的萌发孔在木犀科中处于由简单萌发孔向复合萌发孔过渡的阶段。根据网眼从沟间区中央到沟边是否变细,可将本属花粉分为两大类型,与分组有一定的对应关系。综合一些花粉特征,可发现本属花粉形态差异较明显,与一般形态差异有一定的相关性。花粉形态在木犀属具有一定的系统学意义。

天麻抗真菌蛋白对木霉菌丝的作用位点

天麻抗真菌蛋白(Gastrodia Antifungal Protein,GAFP)能强烈抑制腐生真菌菌丝的生长,在天麻限制和防止蜜环菌［Armillariella mellea (Vahl. ex Fr.)Karst.］侵染球茎的防卫机制中起重要作用。本文报告GAFP抗菌机理研究的部分内容——GAFP对木霉菌丝的作用位点。用荧光试剂异硫氰酸荧光素(Fluorescein isothiocyanate,FITC)标记GAFP,试验表明,标记后的GAFP与未标记的GAFP对木霉菌丝生长均有抑制作用。在荧光显微镜下观察GAFP在木霉菌丝上的作用位点,发现被“标记GAFP”作用后的菌丝边缘有荧光,并主要集中在木霉菌丝的顶端和菌丝横隔处,表明GAFP对木霉的作用位点在菌丝的细胞壁上。     

Pollen morphology and wood anatomy of the Crudia group (Leguminosae, Caesalpinioideae, Detarieae)

Pollen from all 12 and wood from 11 genera in the Crudia group have been examined using light, scanning electron and transmission electron microscopy. This group is currently of systematic interest because it is part of a tribe undergoing taxonomic revision. The pollen grains fall into four groups: (1) Oxystigma, Kingiodendmn, Gossweilerodendron, Bathiaea,.Neoapaloxylon, Stemonocoleus, Guibourlia and Prioria have pollen of a widespread and generalized cacsalpinioid type that are small to medium sized, spheroidal to prolate, tricolporate and with a perforate exine, with some variation in surface ornamentation, aperture margins and ultrastructure. (2) Crudia pollen is tricolporate, coarsely striate with a coarsely scabrate to vcrmiculate aperture membrane. (3) Augouardia is tricolporate and coarsely reticulate. (4) Hardwickia and Colophosperrnum are pantoporate and reticulate or microreticulate-rugulate. The wood of Prioria, Oxystigma, Kingiodendmn and Gossweilerodendron has diffusely arranged axial canals, and these are four genera that have recently been merged into Prioria. Bathiaea has tangentially arranged axial canals. The other genera lack normal axial canals. Crudia is distinct, with banded parenchyma and variably storied short rays, Augouardia has much less abundant axial parenchyma that is mainly scanty paratracheal and vasiccntric, Guibourtia has mainly aliform parenchyma and rays variable in height and width, and Colophosperrnum and Hardwickia have similar paratracheal parenchyma patterns, although the rays tend to be wider in the latter. Our conclusion is that the Crudia group is not monophyletic.     

Evolution of pollen,stigmas and ovule numbers at the caesalpinioid–mimosoid interface (Fabaceae)

In this study we examine the pollen, stigmas and ovaries from 62 collections of herbarium material representing 16 genera, using light and scanning electron microscopy. The caesalpinioid Dimorphandra group (Burkea, Dimorphandra, Erythrophleum, Mora, Pachyelasma, Stachyothyrsus and Sympetalandra) pollen grains are small, tricolporate monads, with perforate or psilate ornamentation. Dinizia, Pentaclethra and Aubrevillea have morphological characters that have suggested either a mimosoid or caesalpinioid placement. Dinizia pollen is in permanent tetrads with clavate ornamentation. Pentaclethra pollen grains are monads, two species have tricolporate pollen and the third is porate. Aubrevillea has tricolporate, finely reticulate monads. All ten genera have variable, non‐predictable stigma type and ovule number. The mimosoid Adenanthera group (Adenanthera, Tetrapleura, Amblygonocarpus, Pseudoprosopis, Calpocalyx and Xylia) pollen grains are in 8‐ to 16‐grain polyads. In all Adenanthera group species, the stigmatic cavity is only large enough to accommodate one polyad. In addition, the number of ovules present matches the number of pollen units in one polyad. Polyads have porate, operculate apertures that differ in layout, aperture morphology and development when compared with caesalpinioid and other eudicot pollen. © 2010 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2010, 162 , 594–615.     

Pollen morphology of the family Cistaceae in Egypt and its systematic significance

The pollen morphology of 11 species (including two subspecies and two varieties) belonging to two genera (Helianthemum and Fumana) of the family Cistaceae in Egypt was studied using light and scanning electron microscopy.Pollen grains of the studied taxa were found to be radially symmetrical and tricolporate.Pollen size,shape,apertures,and exine ornamentation characteristics were valuable parameters among the studied taxa.The largest pollen size was recorded in H.salicifolium and the smallest one observed in H.kahiricum subsp,schweinfurthii.Pollen shape in the Egyptian taxa varied from (sub-)prolate to prolate spheroidal,but F.arabica is different in having sub-oblate grains.The pollen data confirm that H.lippii and H.sessiliflorum are very closely related species.Pollen sculpture was useful in distinguishing between H.vesicarium var.vesicarium and H.vesicarium var.ciliatum.Three main pollen types of exine ornamentation were recognized:retipilate; reticulate to verrucate; and striate.Based on palynological data,a key for the studied taxa is suggested.     

羊蹄甲属中国特有种的花粉形态学

本文对我国18属91种3变种马鞭草科(Verbenaceae)植物的花粉形态进行了详细地观察研究。其中对15属27种进行了扫描电镜观察。本科为花粉多类型的科之一。根据萌发孔的数目、特征和纹饰特点,本文将马鞭草科分为9个花粉类型:1.具疣3沟花粉类型;2.具刺3沟花粉类型;3.具细网8沟花粉类型;4.具模糊颗粒-细网3沟花粉类型;5.具网3沟花粉类型;6.具散沟(6-8条)花粉类型;7.具3孔花粉类型;3.具细网3沟花粉类型,4.具模糊颗粒一细网3沟花粉类型,5.具网3沟花粉类型,6.具散沟(6-8条)花粉类型,7.具3孔花粉类型,8.具3孔沟花粉类型,9.具3(4)孔沟花粉类型。     

Studies on Pollen Morphology in Tiliaceae of China

Pollen morphology of 44 species representing 9 genera of Tiliaceae in China was examined under light microscope, 10 of them were observed with scanning electron microscope. Nine genera involved in this paper are: Colona. Corchoropsis, Corchorus, Excentrodendron, Grewia, Hainannia, Microcos, Tilia and Triumfetta The pollen grains of Tiliaceae are eurypalynous. Based on the aperture type and ornamentation, they may be grouped into four types: (1) The Grewia type, pollen grains tricolporate: Colona, Corchorus, Grewia, Microcos and Triumfetta, (2) The Tilia type, pollen grains brevitricolporate: Hainania and Tilia, (3) The Corchoropsis type, pollen grains triporate, spinate: Corchoropsis, and (4) The Excentrodendron type, pollen grains triporate, reticulate: Exce ntrodendron. The significance of pollen morphology in taxonomy of Tiliaceae is discussed. The palynological data seem to support the separation of Microcos from Grewia and the transfer of Corchoropsis to Sterculiaceae from Tiliaceae.     

SEM SURVEY OF POLLEN MORPHOLOGY AND CLASSIFICATION IN HYDROPHYLLACEAE (WATERLEAF FAMILY)

A general survey of pollen morphology in Hydrophyllaceae, using scanning electron microscopy, is presented. Hydrophyllaceous pollen grains are relatively homogeneous, tricolpate or tricolporate, and with a tectate-perforate to semitectate exine structure. Surface ornamentation is basically reticulate, but varies sufficiently from genus to genus, and sometimes from species to species, to permit interesting comparisons, but not to draw profound phylogenetic conclusions.     

Notes on the morphology and fine structure of the exine of some pollen types in dipterocarpaceae

The pollen morphology of nine species belonging to six genera of Dipterocarpaceae is described in detail with light, scanning electron and transmission electron microscopy, while additional data on twenty-eight species are briefly discussed. In Dipterocarpoideae, grains are tricolpate and the exine consists of a thin, often laminated basal layer and an outer, sculptured layer in which columellae and tectum may either be recognizable or fused into a tilioid structure. The surface of the tectal ridges often show a highly characteristic grooved or crenelated microsculpture. In Monotoideae the grains are tricolporate and four layers can be recognized, the inner two being probably equivalent to endexine s.s. and footlayer, the outer two forming a fairly coarse tilioid reticulate sculpture.The evolutionary relations between the pollen types and their relations to taxonomy, wood anatomy and fruit morphology are discussed. A fair amount of correspondence is obvious, although discrepancies, especially with anatomical evidence, exist also.     

Pollen Morphology of Parnassia L. （Parnassiaceae） and Its Systematic Implications

The pollen morphology of 28 species of Parnassia L. was investigated with light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The shape of pollen grains in this genus varies from subspheroidal to prolate in equatorial view and is three-lobed circular in the polar view. Pollen grains are usually radially symmetrical, isopolar, tricolporate or syntricolporate, with reticulate sculpture. The pollen characteristics among species are fairly similar to each other. Morphological information regarding the pollen grains shows that Parnassia is a natural genus. Based on exine ornamentation observed under SEM, three types of pollen grains were recognized: (i) type I, with foveolate-reticulate sculpture; (ii) type II, with a finely reticulate sculpture; and (iii) type III, with a coarsely reticulate sculpture. Most sections of this genus have one type of sculpture of pollen morphology, but Sect. Nectarotrilobos has three types of sculpture and Sect.Saxifragastrum has two types of sculpture. All three types of sculpture can be found in Southwest China,with species with the longest (Parnassia delavayi Franch.) and shortest (Parnassiafaberi Oliv.) colpi,implying that Southwest China is the center of diversification of the genus.
