高茎紫菀(菊科)形态描述补充及细胞学和分子系统学研究

结合在模式产地采集的高茎紫菀(Aster procerus Hemsley)以及查阅文献资料,发现原始文献对其形态描述不充分且缺乏细胞学和分子系统学方面的报道。本研究对高茎紫菀的形态特征进行了补充描述以及核型特征和系统位置分析,为紫菀属的修订提供资料。结果表明:(1)依据观察结果,补充了高茎紫菀新的形态特征:基生叶羽状分裂,成熟的基生叶较大,长可达26 cm,宽可达8 cm;花序托圆锥状。(2)高茎紫菀的染色体数目为2n=18;核型公式为2n=2x=16 m+2 M,核型属于1 A。(3)基于ITS和ETS标记的分子系统发育树分析表明,高茎紫菀不同居群的2个个体在同一进化支上(LP=100,PP=1.00),且位于核心紫菀属(LP=100,PP=1.00),与女菀[Turczaninovia fastigiata(Fischer)Candolle]构成姐妹类群(LP=52,PP=0.99)。研究认为,高茎紫菀基生叶和花序托的特征可为紫菀属的分类提供新的证据,支持高茎紫菀位于紫菀属(Aster L.)内,建议将女菀并入紫菀属。     

中国海南岛13种菊科植物的细胞学研究

对海南岛13种菊科植物进行了染色体研究,对其中9种植物进行了核型分析,结果为: 树菊Tithoni-a diversifolia A.Gray,2n=34=26m+8sm（2sat）;鳢肠Eclipta prostrata（L.）L.,2n=22=18m+4sm;金腰箭Synedrella nodiflora（L.）Gaertn.,2n=40=6m+30sm（2sat）+4st;三叶鬼针草黄花类型Bidens pilosa L.（yel-low flower）,2n=72=46m+26sm（2sat）;羽     

我国原生植物假泽兰(菊科)的细胞学研究

该文研究了我国原生植物假泽兰(Mikania cordata)台湾花莲居群、苗栗居群、宜兰居群以及台北居群的染色体数目和染色体形态。结果表明:所有居群的染色体数目为2n=36,第一对染色体为近中部着丝粒染色体,其长臂中部具有次缢痕,显著大于其余染色体。各居群的核型公式皆为2n=18m+18sm,核型均为2B型,染色体内不对称性指数(A_1)的变化范围为0.38~0.39,染色体之间不对称性指数(A_2)的变化范围为0.30~0.32。此为我国假泽兰居群染色体数目的唯一报道,也是对该种核型的首次报道。结合前人对假泽兰染色体数目的研究结果,认为假泽兰存在种内非整倍性现象,但在中国台湾的居群中目前仅发现基于x=18的二倍体(2n=36)。假泽兰的第一对染色体的长臂中部具次缢痕,与假泽兰属已报道的核型相似,这一次缢痕可作为假泽兰属的细胞学标记。核型资料、野外观察以及ISSR数据显示薇甘菊(M.micrantha)在我国的成功入侵与入侵种和本土种之间的杂交渐渗无关。根据标本记录和野外考察结果,我国假泽兰现在的分布区与过去相比有了很大的缩减,推测生境的破坏和薇甘菊的侵入可能是导致假泽兰在中国台湾地区逐渐消失的主要原因。     

我国入侵植物薇甘菊(菊科)的细胞学研究

为了解入侵植物薇甘菊(Mikania micrantha)的细胞学特性,研究了薇甘菊在我国广东东南部4居群和台湾2居群的染色体数目和染色体形态。结果表明,所有居群的薇甘菊染色体数目均为2n=36,第一对染色体为近中部着丝粒染色体,其长臂中部具有次缢痕,显著大于其余染色体。广东深圳大学和深圳水库居群的核型公式为2n=20m+14sm+2st;广东汕头、阳江和台湾屏东居群为2n=22m+12sm+2st;台湾宜兰居群为2n=18m+16sm+2st。此前有报道薇甘菊深圳大学居群的染色体数目为2n=38,推断为制片过程中第一对染色体从次缢痕处断裂而导致的计数错误。因此,薇甘菊虽存在非整倍性和多倍性变化,但在广东东南部和台湾的入侵居群中目前仅发现基于x=18的二倍体(2n=36),该种在这些地区的成功入侵与多倍性无关。     

三峡库区川鄂紫菀(菊科)的形态学和细胞学研究

对川鄂紫菀（Aster moupinensis (Franch.)Hand.-Mazz.)秭归居群进行了形态学和细胞学研究。形态学研究表明,川鄂紫菀存在居群间分化,但不足以划分变种。发现了一些被以前研究者忽视的重要性状,首次报道了川鄂紫菀的染色体数目和核型。其核型公式为2n=2x=18m。     

岳麓紫菀（菊科）的分布及其形态学与核型研究

岳麓紫菀（Aster sinianus Hand. Mazz.,菊科紫菀族）为多年生草本,特产于中国湘赣毗邻地区。在对其整个分布区进行野外采集和生境观察时,发现了2个新的分布地点,同时确认其已在模式产地湖南省长沙市岳麓山灭绝。该研究将岳麓紫菀从浏阳市沙市镇回迁至岳麓山,以期恢复模式产地的居群。形态学研究表明,现有文献对该种的描述多处不准确,如对基生叶、株高、茎下部叶、托片和海拔等的记载。基于形态性状,讨论了岳麓紫菀的系统学地位,并首次报道了该种的核型特征：岳麓紫菀为二倍体,核型为2n=2x=16m+2m(SAT),属于1A型。该研究结果为岳麓紫菀的分类地位的修订和物种保护提供了重要的资料。     

款冬属的核形态（菊科：千里光族）

了款冬属的核形态。染色体间期为简单型与复杂型的过渡型;前期染色体为近基型的过渡型。染色体较小,核型不对称,具明显的二型性;数目与核型公式为２ｎ＝６０＝４２ｍ＋１０ｓｍ＿６ｓｔ＋２ｔ。比较发现款冬的核型不同于千里光族中已有的核型记载,其核型特征似乎与它独特的形态特征相联系,具有重要的系统学意义。     

马兰属花粉形态的研究

本文对马兰属９种３变种１变型的花粉形态进行了光学显微镜和扫描电子显微镜的观察和初步比较研究。花粉粒为近球形,极面观三裂圆形。具三孔沟。外壁表面具刺状纹饰。不同种类花粉大小和外壁表面纹饰不同,可以作为区分种类的依据或参考。据此,将马形马兰上升为种,羽叶马兰和羽裂叶毡毛马兰合并,甘川紫菀和高茎紫菀划归马兰属。     

10种菊科花卉的染色体观察

作者对10种菊科花卉进行了染色体数目的观察,并对其中8种进行了核型分析。结果如下:翠菊(Callistephus chinensis Nees) 2n=18=18m (4SAT);麦秆菊(Helichrysum bracteatum Andr.)2n=24=18m+6sm;蛇目菊(Coreopsis tinctoria Nutt.) 2n=24=16m+8sm (2SAT);黑心菊(Rudbechia hirta L.) 2n=76;肿柄菊(Tithonia diversifolia A. Gray) 2n=34=24m(4SAT)+10sm (2SAT);大丽花(Dahlia pinnata Cav.) 2n=64;硫华菊(Cosmos sulphureus Cav.) 2n=24=2sm+22st;万寿菊(Tagetes erecta L.) 2n=24=6sm+16st(2SAT)+2t;天人菊(Gaillardia pulchella Foug.) 2n=34=22m+12sm;矢车菊(Centaurea cyanus L.) 2n=24=2sm+16st+6t(2SAT)。     

两种羽叶菊属植物(菊科:千里光族)的细胞学研究及其系统学意义

该研究首次报道了滇羽叶菊和台湾刘寄奴的染色体数据。结果表明:两者的染色体数量都为48,核型公式均为2n=2x=36m+10sm+2st,与前人报道的刻裂羽叶菊的核型稍有不同。两者的染色体形态均由大到小逐渐变化,核型二型性不明显,但前者染色体明显比后者大。这说明羽叶菊属染色体基数确实应为x=24,且染色体大小在种间有较大差异。细胞学证据表明,该属与蒲儿根属中染色体基数为x=24的类群以及狗舌草属确实近缘。     

Cytological study on the genus Syncalathium (Asteraceae-Lactuceae), an endemic taxon to alpine scree of the Sino-Himalayas

Cytological characters of four species in Syncalathium (Asteraceae: Lactuceae), a small genus with six identified species endemic to alpine scree of the Sino-Himalayan region, are surveyed in this report. Three species ( Syncalathium pilosum, Syncalathium chrysocephalum, and Syncalathium disciforme ) are examined for the first time. Combined with our previous counts, five species have been cytologically investigated from the genus and the results indicated that all species are diploid with the basic somatic chromosome number of x=8. The karyotype asymmetry of Syncalathium souliei is 2A, distinct from the other four species of 1 A, and the remaining species are divided into two subgroups with different karyotypes, consistent with their morphological features. The significance of the cytological evolution of Syncalathium is briefly discussed.

Chromosome counts and karyotypes in Chaetoseris and Stenoseris (Asteraceae-Cichorieae) from the Hengduan Mountains of SW China

Chaetoseris and Stenoseris are two morphologically close genera from the tribe Cichorieae of the sunflower family and they are endemic in alpine eastern Himalayas to the Hengduan Mountains of SW China.Mitotic chromosome numbers and karyotypes are reported for 12 populations representing eight species of Chaetoseris and two species of Stenoseris from the Hengduan Mountains region.Eight species are new and the other two provide confirmation of previous reference.All Chaetoseris and Stenoseris taxa are diploidy with 2n ＝ 16 and their basic number is tentatively suggested as x ＝ 8.Karyotypes of Chaetoseris and Stenoseris are similar to each other with 2A and 2B for the former and 2A for the latter.Cytological data of chromosomal numbers and karyotypes support a close relationship of the two genera.Currently no polyploids are found for these two genera and it seems that polyploidization has played a minor role in their evolutionary speciation in the Hengduan Mountains region.     

粉背薯蓣雄花的形态发生

通过田间观察与石蜡切片法,对粉背薯蓣雄花的发生发育进行了形态与解剖学观察。结果表明:粉背薯蓣雄花为功能上的单性花,花芽分化时雄蕊原基正常启动,随后,3枚雄蕊正常发育,3枚雄蕊退化。成熟雄蕊药隔分叉、变宽呈加厚短叉状,退化雄蕊呈花丝状,顶端分叉或膨大成瘤状。初步分析了花部构件的演变与功能的关系。对粉背薯蓣小孢子发生及雄配子体发育过程的观察表明,花药具4个花粉囊,花药壁发育为单子叶型,由表皮、药室内壁、中层1层和绒毡层组成,绒毡层为腺质型。小孢子母细胞减数分裂后胞质分裂为同时型,四分体为四面体型排列,偶有左右对称型排列,成熟的花粉粒为二细胞型。     

A critical review and a new proposal of karyotype asymmetry indices

In literature seven different methods of evaluating karyotype asymmetry – the TF%, the As K%, Stebbins' classification, the Rec and the Syi, the A₁ and the A₂, the DI, and the A – are used for the elucidation of phylogenetic relationships and taxonomic treatments within a particular group or taxon. The investigation of these seven methods reveals that the intervals used by Stebbins to separate the different types of karyotype asymmetry are very broad and only one quantitative parameter, the A₂ index, correctly describes the variation in chromosome length in a complement. A new asymmetry index (AI) is proposed to measure karyotype asymmetry and a new parameter, the CV_CI, is offered, that precisely assesses the relative variation in centromere position in a complement. The AI index, the CV_CI and the CV_CL (=A₂ × 100) have the potential to display even minor karyotypic variations. Thus, these three indices together increase the precision of results in comparison with other existing methods. All this has important consequences as regards the interpretation of the results of karyological studies.
