DNA barcoding is a useful tool to define operational taxonomic units based on standardized DNA regions. In this study, three chloroplast markers (rbcL, trnH-psbA and matK) and one nrDNA marker (ITS) were tested for species identification in Roscoea. The ITS and trnH-psbA regions showed high success rate of PCR amplification and bidirectional sequencing, as well as perfect discriminatory ability. On the contrary, rbcL possessed no genetic variation and matK was relatively difficult in PCR amplification and DNA sequencing. Combination of multiple markers greatly improved identification ability of DNA barcoding. ITS + trnH-psbA could effectively discriminate 90% species based on method of the Neighbor-Joining (NJ) tree. Awful PCR amplification and DNA sequencing of matK restricted its efficiency, although it showed rich genetic variability in Roscoea. Moreover, it might be more appropriate to treat Roscoea cautleoides var. pubescens as an independent species based on molecular data, namely R. pubescens Z. Y. Zhu. 相似文献

Shorea (Dipterocarpaceae) is a large genus in which many closely related species often grow together in Southeast Asian lowland
tropical rain forests. Many Shorea species share common pollinators, and earlier studies suggested occurrence of interspecific hybridization and introgression.
Here, we show morphological and molecular evidence of hybridization between Shorea species. In the census of all the trees of Shorea curtisii, Shorea leprosula, and Shorea parvifolia (>30 cm dbh) within the 164-ha area of Bukit Timah Nature Reserve in Singapore, we found 21 morphologically recognizable
hybrid individuals. All of the putative hybrids could be distinguished obviously from the parental species on the basis of
vegetative characters. Population genetic analysis of DNA sequences of two nuclear (GapC and PgiC) and chloroplast (trnL-trnF) regions demonstrated that each of the three species had several species-specific mutations. The nuclear sequences of the
putative hybrids were heterozygote at all the species-specific sites between two parental species. Hybrid between S. curtisii and S. leprosula was found most, while S. curtisii × S. parvifolia and S. leprosula × S. parvifolia hybrids were also found. Almost no shared polymorphism between populations of the parental species suggests rarity of introgression.
The study indicated that natural hybridization between sympatric Shorea species should not be uncommon, but all of the hybrid individuals were F1, and the post-F1 hybrids were considerably rare. 相似文献

Molecular evidence for natural hybridization between Rhododendron spiciferum and R. spinuliferum (Ericaceae) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Rhododendron ×duclouxii is morphologically intermediate between Rhododendron spiciferum and Rhododendron spinuliferum, and was suspected to be a natural hybrid between these species. In this study, the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and chloroplast trnL-F regions of 34 accessions of R. ×duclouxii and its putative parents were analyzed for evidence of hybridization. The results from molecular data supported by morphology demonstrated that R. ×duclouxii represents a natural hybrid between R. spiciferum and R. spinuliferum. It also implies that the hybridization between R. spiciferum and R. spinuliferum is bidirectional, and that populations of R. ×duclouxii represent hybrid swarms from backcrossing or selfing of F1 plants. The study is important for understanding the speciation processes in the genus since it demonstrates for the first time the existence of a natural homoploid hybrid in Rhododendron subgenus Rhododendron. 相似文献

Three species of burdock (Arctium lappa, A. tomentosum, and A. minus; Asteraceae), which commonly occur in sympatry in Central Europe, are thought to hybridize frequently, hence raising questions
about their integrity. We surveyed mixed, monotypic, and/or single plant stands of these species in Central Germany to assess
their extent of hybridization and introgression, and also the likelihood of insect host shifts between them. Individual plants
were characterized by multivariate analyses of morphological and RAPD variation in combination with RAPD-based character-index-scores.
All analyses recognized the three species as distinct units, but also identified a limited number of first (or early) generation
hybrids between sympatric A. lappa and either A. tomentosum or A. minus, respectively, as well as one introgressant of A. tomentosum into A. lappa. While pre-zygotic isolation may partly account for the rarity of first generation crosses (F1's), the near absence of later generation hybrid segregants or introgressants likely reflects post-zygotic isolation due to
the disruption of co-adapted gene complexes and/or habitat-mediated superiority shared by the ruderal parentals. As the tephritid
fly Tephritis bardanae oviposits on both A. tomentosum (T) and A. minus (M), but not on A. lappa (L), the occurrence of L × M and L × T hybrids and/or introgressants may have important evolutionary consequences regarding
the acquisition of a new host, i.e. A. lappa, by these insects. 相似文献

Natural hybridization is very common in plants, and plays an important role in plant evolution. Besides the traditional methods including morphological analysis and hand crossing, molecular evidence is needed for studying natural hybridization.In order to analyze natural hybridization in Roscoea,HAT-RAPD technique was used toidentify putative hybrids from parental species by principal co ordinate analysis and hybrid index. The results indicated that the bands amplified by HAT-RAPD technique were more stable and reliable than that of RAPD. The result of principal co ordinate analysis and hybrid index showed that intermediate individuals were the hybrids of R.humeana and R.cautleoides, and showed closer relationships to R.humeana. These results suggested that HAT-RAPD could be used to study natural hybridization. As it is simple and easy to manipulate, HAT RAPD may prove to be a very effective technique in hybrid identification in the studies of plant evolution. 相似文献

Morphological and molecular evidence for hybridization and introgression in a willow (Salix) hybrid zone 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Hybrid zones provide biologists with the opportunity to examine genetic and ecological interactions between differentiated populations. Accurate identification of hybrid genealogies is considered a necessary prerequisite to understanding observed patterns of hybridization-related phenomena. We analysed molecular and morphological data from individuals in a hybrid zone between two species of willows (Salix sericea Marshall and S. eriocephala Michaux) and report the use of randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), chloroplast DNA (cpDNA), and ribosomal DNA (rDNA) markers, as well as vegetative morphology and foliar chemistry data to identify individuals in terms of hybrid genealogy and to infer the direction and extent of backcrossing and introgression within the hybrid zone. A novel version of a maximum likelihood estimate approach (developed for this study) was used to calculate hybrid index scores from RAPD marker data; this method produced results similar to those obtained using traditional arithmetic methods. Distribution of rDNA, cpDNA, and chemistry data were examined within the graphical context of RAPD-based hybrid index score histograms and principal component analyses (PCA) on RAPD and morphology data. Seven of the 21 plants classified as S. eriocephala in the field were possible introgressants. Another plant presented an unequivocal example of backcrossed S. sericea chemistry and RAPD markers. Inter- and intraspecific chloroplast diversity found within the hybrid zone suggests both historic introgression (perhaps in a glacial refugium), and contemporary hybridization. Patterns of inheritance and expression within the hybrid zone suggest that morphological characters are often not expressed in a simple additive fashion, and problems associated with both morphological and molecular data are considered. 相似文献

Extensive morphological variation of tetraploid birch (Betula pubescens) in Iceland is believed to be due to gene flow from diploid dwarf birch (B. nana) by means of introgressive hybridization. A combined morphological and cytogenetic approach was used to investigate this phenomenon in two geographically separated populations of natural birch woodland in Iceland. The results not only confirmed introgressive hybridization in birch, but also revealed bidirectional gene flow between the two species via triploid interspecific hybrids. The populations showed continuous morphological variation connecting the species, but karyotypically they consisted of only three types of plants: diploids, triploids, and tetraploids. No aneuploids were found. Some of the tetraploid plants had B. pubescens morphology as expected, but most of them had intermediate characters. Most of the diploid plants were B. nana, but some were intermediates and a few had B. pubescens morphology. The triploid plants were either intermediates or they resembled one of the two species. Similar introgressive variation was observed among the diploid and triploid progeny of open-pollinated B. nana in a garden. Birch samples including field plants and artificial hybrids were further examined using a molecular method based on genomic Southern hybridization. The experiments verified introgression at the DNA level. 相似文献

Autonomous selfing provides reproductive assurance in an alpine ginger Roscoea schneideriana (Zingiberaceae) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Background and Aims
Reproductive assurance, the ability to produce seeds when pollinators or mates are scarce, is thought to be the major advantage of selfing in flowering plants. However, few studies have performed a direct cost–benefit analysis of the selective advantage of selfing, particularly given a long-term perspective among populations or across several flowering seasons within population. This study examined the fertility consequences of autonomous selfing in Roscoea schneideriana (Zingiberaceae), a small perennial Himalayan ginger typically found in habitats at around 3000 m a.s.l.Methods
The floral biology of R. schneideriana was studied in natural populations; the capacity for autonomous selfing was estimated using pollinator exclusion experiments; the timing of selfing was quantified by anther removal at different times during flowering; whether autonomous selfing increases seed production was tested by emasculating flowers; and the magnitude of inbreeding depression was estimated by comparing relative performance of progeny from self- and cross-pollinations. Pollinator observations were also conducted in the natural populations.Key Results
The hooked stigmas of most flowers curl towards the anther and can contact pollen grains at an early stage of anthesis. Flowers with potential pollinators excluded set of as many seeds per fruit as hand-selfed and opened flowers. Autonomous selfing mostly occurs within 2 d of anthesis and can increase seed production by an average of 84 % in four populations during the flowering seasons of 2005–2007. Visits by effective pollinators were extremely rare. The cumulative inbreeding depression of R. schneideriana was 0·226.Conclusions
Autonomous selfing in R. schneideriana is achieved by stigmas curling towards the anthers early in flowering. It is suggested that under the poor pollination conditions, autonomous selfing has been selected for in this alpine ginger because it provides substantial reproductive assurance with very low costs.Key words: Zingiberaceae, Roscoea, autonomous self-pollination, reproductive assurance, inbreeding depression, pollinator failure, Himalayan species 相似文献12.
Morphological and molecular evidence of natural hybridization between two distantly related Rhododendron species from the Sino-Himalaya 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Rhododendron (Ericaceae) is a large woody genus in which hybridization may play an important role in evolution and speciation, particularly in the Sino-Himalayan region, where many interfertile species often occur sympatrically. Natural hybridization between Rhododendron delavayi Franch. (= R. arboreum ssp. delavayi ) and Rhododendron decorum Franch., which belong to different subsections of subgenus Hymenanthes, was investigated. Material of R. delavayi and R. decorum and their putative hybrids was collected from the wild. On the basis of morphology, chloroplast DNA, nuclear ribosomal DNA, and AFLP profiles, hybrids and parental species were identified. Hybridization occurred in both directions, but was asymmetrical, with R. delavayi as the major maternal parent in the hybrid zone. Most of the hybrids possessed intermediate phenotypes, and amongst the 15 hybrids detected were six F1s, two F2s, one first-generation backcross to R. delavayi , and two first-generation backcrosses to R. decorum . This indicates that, if Rhododendron underwent rapid radiation in this region, it did so in spite of permeable species barriers. © 2008 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society , 2008, 156 , 119–129. 相似文献

Floral organs are widely believed to enhance the pollination and reproductive success of angiosperms. However, the functional implication of some floral structures is still unknown. In this study, we explored the functional role of staminal appendages on male and female reproductive success of Himalayan Roscoea spp. and tested if their function differed between species with biotic pollination and autonomous selfing. Phenotypic manipulation is a powerful approach to test the functional effect of a particular trait on plant fitness. We compared various proxies of pollination success between intact flowers and flowers with manually excised staminal appendages. We found that the rate of visitation did not differ between intact and manipulated flowers. Our results revealed that in outcrossing Roscoea spp., the staminal appendages act as triggering devices to facilitate pollen release and deposition and also to manipulate the foraging position of pollinators to ensure both male and female reproductive success. In contrast, in autonomously selfing Roscoea spp., the removal of staminal appendages did not affect any aspect of pollination processes. Our results suggest that the staminal appendages are an integral component of outcrossing in Roscoea spp. and are maintained by selection pressure through both male and female reproductive success. This study provides important insights on how variation in breeding systems can provoke changes in the structure and function of floral organs among congeners. 相似文献

Molecular phylogenetic analyses of the genus Globba, Zingiberaceae, using the trnK gene (including the matK gene) of chloroplast DNA and the internal transcribed spacers of nuclear ribosomal DNA (ITS) sequence data, were carried
out in order to understand whether triploid formation was a rare event in Globba. The topologies of both the trnK gene and the ITS trees were almost identical except the position of G. patens var. costulata. Triploids were scattered into several clades. These results suggest that multiple triploid formations had taken place and that such formations may be one of the most important
force for speciation of Globba. The monophyly of both sects. Ceratanthera and Globba was not positively supported.

Background and Aims
Delayed selfing is the predominant mode of autonomous self-pollination in flowering plants. However, few delayed selfing mechanisms have been documented. This research aims to explore a new delayed selfing mechanism induced by stigmatic fluid in Roscoea debilis, a small perennial ginger.Methods
Floral biology and flower visitors were surveyed. The capacity of autonomous selfing was evaluated by pollinator exclusion. The timing of autonomous selfing was estimated by emasculation at different flowering stages. The number of seeds produced from insect-pollination was assessed by emasculation and exposure to pollinators in the natural population. The breeding system was also tested by pollination manipulations.Key Results
Autonomous self-pollination occurred after flowers wilted. The stigmatic fluid formed a globule on the stigma on the third day of flowering. The enlarged globule seeped into the nearby pollen grains on the fourth flowering day, thus inducing pollen germination. Pollen tubes then elongated and penetrated the stigma. Hand-selfed flowers produced as many seeds as hand-crossed flowers. There was no significant difference in seed production between pollinator-excluded flowers and hand-selfed flowers. When emasculated flowers were exposed to pollinators, they produced significantly fewer seeds than intact flowers. Visits by effective pollinators were rare.Conclusions
This study describes a new form of delayed autonomous self-pollination. As the predominant mechanism of sexual reproduction in R. debilis, delayed self-pollination ensures reproduction when pollinators are scarce. 相似文献16.

Some plants with low fertility are morphologically intermediate between Roegneria stricta and Roegneria turczaninovii, and were suspected to be natural hybrids between these species. In this study, karyotype analysis showed that natural hybrids and their putative parents were tetraploids (2n = 4x = 28). Meiotic pairing in natural hybrids is more irregular than its putative parents. Results of genomic in situ hybridization and fluorescence in situ hybridization indicate that natural hybrids contain the same genome as their putative parents. The nuclear gene DNA meiotic recombinase 1 (DMC1) and the chloroplast gene rps16 of natural hybrids and their putative parents were analyzed for evidence of hybridization. The results from molecular data supported by morphology and cytology demonstrated that the plants represent natural hybrids between R. stricta and R. turczaninovii. The study is important for understanding species evolution in the genus since it demonstrates for the first time the existence of populations of natural homoploid hybrids in Roegneria. The study also reports for the first time that the composition of the genomic formula of R. turczaninovii is StY, confirming that the current taxonomic status is correct. 相似文献

Two accessions of Brachiaria brizantha under cytological analysis showed 2 n = 5x = 45 chromosomes. Pentaploidy probably resulted from natural hybridization between two species that were not closely related: an apomictic tetraploid male (2 n = 4x = 36), and a sexual diploid female (2 n = 2x = 18). The lack of affinity between genomes was clearly indicated by asynchrony during meiosis. The haploid genome ( n = 9) showed unique behaviour, remaining univalent during prophase I and metaphase I, and undergoing sister-chromatid segregation and lagging at anaphase I. The laggard genome did not always reach the poles in time to be included in the telophase nucleus. However, when the inclusion was effective, this genome was distributed peripherally, changing the otherwise spherical nucleus shape. In the second division, the haploid genome behaved similarly, but as there was sister-chromatid segregation during the first division, the chromatids were slow to reach the poles, forming several micronuclei at telophase II. The two accessions were characterized as allo-autopentaploids, with the tetraploid genome (2 n = 4x = 36) designated as B (from B. brizantha ) and the haploid genome as X, representing a species with a distinct genome having little affinity with the B genome. Thus, the hybrids' genome composition is represented by BBBBX. By comparing their meiotic behaviour with that observed in synthetic hybrids between B. brizantha and B. ruziziensis analysed previously, B. ruziziensis is the putative diploid sexual parent species in these pentaploid accessions. © 2006 The Linnean Society of London , Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society , 2006, 150 , 441–446. 相似文献

The endemic Hawaiian limpets (Cellana exarata, Cellana sandwicensis, and Cellana talcosa), reside at different elevations on wave-exposed rocky shores and comprise a monophyletic lineage that diversified within Hawai'i. Here, I report phenotypic differences in shell, soft tissue, and behavioral characters among these limpets and discuss their potential utility in exploiting their respective niches. The high-shore limpet, C. exarata, is characterized by a tall round shell, short mantle tentacles, and long evasion distance when confronted by a predatory gastropod. The mid-shore limpet, C. sandwicensis, is characterized by a shorter oblong shell, long mantle tentacles, and a short evasion distance when confronted by a predatory snail. The low-shore, shallow-subtidal limpet, C. talcosa, is characterized by a flat shell that is thin in juveniles and disproportionately massive in large adults (relative to the other two species), and mantle tentacles of varying lengths (some individuals exhibit short tentacles, some long). These species-specific suites of characters are likely to confer specific fitness advantages on the high shore (C. exarata) where thermal and desiccation stress is severe, on the mid shore (C. sandwicensis) where hydrodynamic forces are severe, and on the low-shallow subtidal shore (C. talcosa) where pelagic predators have free access to the limpets. These data add to the growing body of evidence for adaptive diversification and speciation in the Hawaiian Cellana, and in marine species in general. 相似文献

Rhododendron (Ericaceae) is a large genus in which barriers to hybridization are especially weak, but many species are maintained in sympatry. Hybridization among four species of Rhododendron subsect. Pontica, which occur in sympatry in Turkey, was investigated. Material of R. ponticum, R. smirnovii, R. ungernii, and R. caucasicum and their putative hybrids was collected from the wild. Based on morphology, chloroplast DNA and nuclear ribosomal DNA restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) profiles, each accession was identified as a species or hybrid combination. Five of the six possible hybrid combinations among the four species were detected. Rhododendron ponticum × R. smirnovii was represented by a single individual and R. caucasicum × R. smirnovii by one small group of hybrid plants. The combinations R. ponticum × R. ungernii and R. ungernii × R. smirnovii showed evidence of frequent backcrossing, while R. ponticum × R. caucasicum appeared unusual in that an intermediate hybrid type was abundant, whereas hybrids with phenotypes approaching either parent were rare. Possible explanations of this latter situation are discussed. The results suggest that natural hybridization among Rhododendron species is common and that ecological factors are important in maintaining integrity when species occur in sympatry. 相似文献

Interspecific hybridization is widespread among plants. Understanding the phylogenetic relationships among species is necessary for revealing the potential hybridization events. Actinidia, best known as kiwifruit genus found throughout a wide range in eastern Asian from Indonesia to Siberia. In this study, phylogenetic relationships of Actinidia species with sympatric distributions were investigated using three chloroplast introns (trnL-F, atpB-rbcL and rpl32-trnL) and three Exon primed intron-crossing (EPIC) markers. Chloroplast phylogeny supports non-monophyly of the five species studied excluding Actinidia fulvicoma var. lanata. The non-monophyly was also revealed by EPIC markers. Our results showed EPIC markers are more variable and informative for phylogenetic inference than that of chloroplast markers. The incongruences between loci from the plastid and nuclear DNA phylogenic trees may stem from incomplete lineage sorting or historical introgression hybridization. Incomplete lineage sorting may explain the non-monophyly between Actinidia chrysantha (section Maculatae) and other four species (section Stellatae), and introgression hybridization and high level of interspecific gene flow may explain the non-monophyly among the species of sect. Stellatae. Thus, natural hybridization and introgression may be common in Actinidia with sympatric distribution. 相似文献
