Colpomenia borea sp. nov. is described from Hokkaido, Japan and Magadan, Far East Russia based on morphological observations and molecular analyses using mitochondrial cox3 and chloroplast rbcL genes. This new species is distinguished from other Colpomenia by its small globular to ovoidal thallus up to 5 cm in diameter, and thin thallus membrane composed of a cortex of one to two-cell layers and a colorless medulla of up to three layers. This species is epiphytic on the brown alga Stephanocystis in areas protected against waves. The life history in culture of C. borea was investigated and the observed life history pattern was similar to those reported in C. peregrina and C. sinuosa. Our phylogenetic analyses supported that C. borea is a distinct species, yet it is more related to C. peregrina than C. sinuosa. 相似文献

Seed dispersal by ants, known as myrmecochory, is commonly observed among various plant taxa. The seeds of these plants have an elaiosome to attract ants. In Japan, myrmecochory has been well studied in several lowland plant species, but not in highland plant species that grow above the tree line. We investigated whether the seeds of Dicentra peregrina, known as the “queen of the alpine plants” in Japan, are carried by Formica gagatoides ants at 2510 m a.s.l. on Mt Norikura, Kita‐Alps, Japan. We observed F. gagatoides workers picking up D. peregrina seeds by grasping the elaiosome and carrying the seeds into their nests. We inferred from the observed ant behavior and the seed morphology that D. peregrina is a myrmecochorous species. 相似文献

Moringa peregrina is an economically valuable tree of Egyptian deserts. It is used medicinally, provides a highly nutritious supplement to
Bedouin diets, provides fodder for livestock, and is used for fire wood. M. peregrina seeds have been a source of high-quality oil for cosmetics and perfumes since antiquity. Due to unmanaged grazing and over-collection,
M. peregrina has become one of the most endangered tree species in the Egyptian desert ecosystem. A long-term conservation program is
urgently needed to maintain or increase the number and size of M. peregrina populations. Ten populations harboring a total of 130 adult M. peregrina were sampled from three disjunct Wadis in South Sinai (W. Me’ar, W. Fieran and W. Zaghra). Open-pollinated seedlings were
electrophoretically analyzed to address two basic questions: (1) how is genetic diversity distributed within and among populations
within these three Wadis; and (2) what is the mating system of this species. M. peregrina has a mixed mating system with a selfing rate up to 16% and has limited genetic diversity within and significant genetic
differentiation among its populations, the majority of which occurs among Wadis. Direct protection is urgently needed to decrease
genetic deterioration within M. peregrina populations and to improve their ability to maintain or improve their population numbers. The priority of in situ conservation
should be to conserve a few large well-distributed populations representing different Wadis. Ex situ germplasm collections
should be made across the species’ range to ensure a representative sample of its genetic variation. Seed orchards designed
to maximize cross-fertilization among unrelated individuals should be established to generate propagules to supplement natural
populations. 相似文献

Biosystematic relationships among species assigned to three subgenera of the genus Dicentra were investigated with respect to hybridization and chromosomal constitution and fertility of the hybrids. Four species of subgenus Dicentra, D. formosa, D. eximia, D. nevadensis, and D. peregrina, were intercrossed in various ways to form diploid, triploid, and tetraploid hybrids. Hybrids at the tetraploid level in this subgenus invariably were highly fertile. Triploid hybrids, as expected, were mostly very sterile. Diploid hybrids varied in this respect, but none was highly fertile. Crosses with two of the remaining four species of subgenus Dicentra produced no hybrids, but abundant seed was obtained in one instance. The two species of the subgenus Chrysocapnos, D. chrysaniha and D. ochroleuca, cross to produce a partially fertile tetraploid hybrid, but cross-pollinations involving these species with those of other subgenera failed. The single species of subgenus Hedycapnos, D. spectablis (diploid) produced no hybrids when cross-pollinated with members of the other two sections. These results are fully concordant with presumed affinities based on morphological similarity In addition, preliminary results of hybridization between the monocotyledonous D. peregrina and a number of dicotyledonous species of Dicentra are reported. 相似文献

Moringa peregrina (Moringaceae), an economically important tree that occurs in arid desert mountains, is currently threatened in large part of its distribution range in the Middle East and the Arabian Peninsula. We assessed the impact of topographic factors on population structure and performance of the species at its northwest range edge on the Hafit Mountain, UAE, where it faces harsh climatic conditions and human disturbances. Size structure, fruit production, and vitality were assessed on all 165 individual plants encountered in 12 gorges. The size distribution indicates that the population of M. peregrina is young; the proportion of small and medium-size individuals is high, but with few recorded juveniles. The frequency of plant occurrence and their performance were highest at middle altitudes. Large trees produced significantly more fruits than small and medium plants, with the larger trees of the population at middle altitude producing most fruits. M. peregrina facilitated the growth of grasses and small shrubs, but limited the presence of other big shrubs and trees beneath their canopies, compared to areas beyond. The study indicates that gorges play an important role in maintaining the M. peregrina population at its hyper-arid northwest range edge. 相似文献

The influence of ant attendance on larval parasitism in hawthorn psyllids (Homoptera: Psyllidae) 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Hans Novak 《Oecologia》1994,99(1-2):72-78
The influence of ant attendance on parasitization of the larvae of three hawthorn psyllid species [Cacopsylla peregrina Förster, C. melanoneura Förster, C. crataegi (Schrank)] was studied over 2 years. All three psyllid species had low parasitization rates. However, the ant-attended C. crataegi was almost exclusively parasitized by Prionomitus mitratus (Dalman) (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) while the unattended C. peregrina and C. melanoneura were predominantly attacked by P. tiliaris (Dalman). Additionally, C. peregrina and C. melanoneura has significantly higher hyperparasitization rates than the ant-attended C. crataegi, with Pachyneuron muscarum as the dominant hyperparasitoid of all three psyllids. The mummies of C. peregrina and C. melanoneura were also heavily attacked by anthocorids. Both Prionomitus tiliaris and P. mitratus were disturbed and jumped away when encountering foraging ants. However, ant exclusion experiments showed that the primary parasitoid P. mitratus benefitted from ant attendance of its host C. crataegi as honeydew-collecting ants provided it with protection from hyperparasitoids. 相似文献

Dietary deficiency of iron and zinc micronutrients affects more than two billion people worldwide. Breeding for micronutrient-dense
crops is the most sustainable and cost-effective approach for alleviation of micronutrient malnutrition. Three accessions
of Aegilops
peregrina (Hack.) Maire & Weill (2n = 28, UPUPSPSP), selected for high grain iron and zinc concentration were crossed with Triticum
aestivum L. cv. Chinese Spring (Ph
I
). The sterile F1 hybrids were backcrossed with elite wheat cultivars to get fertile BC2F2 derivatives. Some of the fertile BC2F2 derivatives showed nearly 100% increase in grain iron and more than 200% increase in grain zinc concentration compared to
the recipient wheat cultivars. The development of derivatives with significantly higher grain micronutrients, high thousand-grain
weight and harvest index suggests that the enhanced micronutrient concentration is due to the distinct genetic system of Ae. peregrina and not to the concentration effect. Genomic in situ hybridization, comparison of introgressed chromosomes with the standard
karyotype of Ae. peregrina and simple sequence repeat marker analysis revealed the introgression of 7SP chromosomes in five selected derivatives, 7UP in four, group 4 and 4SP in three and a translocated 5UP of Ae. peregrina in one of the selected derivatives. Molecular marker analysis using the introgressed chromosome markers indicated that two
of the BC2F3 progenies were stabilized as disomic addition lines. It could, therefore, be concluded that the group 4 and 7 chromosomes
of Ae. peregrina carry the genes for high grain iron and zinc concentration. 相似文献

Ten enzymes (AAT, CK, G3PDH, HEX, IDH, LDH, MDH, ME, PGI, PGM) were examined using horizontal starch gel electrophoresis to
estimate the levels of genetic variation within and among six natural populations of two grasshopper species Atractomorpha sinensis and A. peregrina from Shanxi, China. The collecting sites were geographically distant from each other from south to north: Quwo district,
Linfen city; Xiangyuan county, Changzhi; Jinyuan district, Taiyuan city; Yuanping county, Xinzhou city and Fanshi county of
Xinzhou.A. sinensis showed 43 alleles at 16 loci but A. peregrine showed 39 alleles at 15 loci (Idh-1 was deficient). The zymograms showed that some common alleles were shared at several loci in these two species (Aat-1-b, Aat-2-b, G3pdh-a, Ck-1-b and Ldh-b). However, Hex-1-a, Hex-2-a, Hex-3-a, Idh-2-b, Mdh-2-b, Mdh-1-f, Pgi-b, Pgm-b had common alles in A. sinensis and Hex-1-b, Hex-2-b, Hex-3-b, Idh-2-a, Mdh-2-a, Mdh-1-d, Pgi-a, Pgm-c were of high frequency in A. peregrine instead. Most of the observed genotype frequencies were found to significantly deviate from the Hardy-Weinberg expectations
in both species. A tendency of clinal distribution of allele frequency was observed at three loci. The frequency of the moderately
migrating allele Me-c (0.318–0.740) in A. peregrina, Hex-1-a (0.800–1.000) and Ldh-b (0.487–0.750) in A. sinensis demonstrated increased frequency from north to south. Such tendency suggests that the allele frequency in these three loci
may be correlated with the species’ geographic distributions. A. sinensis showed higher genetic diversity than A. peregrina as indicated by higher mean number of alleles per locus (A = 1.9–2.3 in A. sinensis and 1.7–2.2 in A. peregrina), percentage of polymorphic loci (56.3%–68.8% in A. sinensis and 43.8%–56.3% in A. peregrina), and the observed heterozygosities (H
o
= 0.072–0.096 in A. sinensis and 0.70–0.107 in A. peregrina). The observed heterozygosities of the six populations were all noticeably lower than the Hardy-Weinberg expectations, mostly
due to heterozygote deficiency in the populations of both species. The overall mean F
ST
were small (F
ST
= 0.045, P > 0.05 in A. sinensis populations and 0.087, P > 0.05 in A. peregrina populations). Nei’s genetic identity (I) estimates indicate low intraspecific (>0.95) but higher interspecific (0.377–0.447) genetic diversity. The cluster analysis
based on modified Roger’s genetic distance (D) showed that the two species were divided into two branches.
Both species are of limited dispersal capacity and a moderate geographical barrier might significantly restrict the gene exchange
among populations, resulting in accumulation of local genetic differentiations. The A. sinensis populations used in this study were separated from each other by 155.2 to 271.4 km and the A. peregrina populations were separated from each other by 78.8 to 174.9 km with observable physical barriers. The allozyme data showed
only minimal genetic differentiation at population level, most likely as a result of gene exchange. It is reasoned that natural
factors and human agricultural activities might have facilitated migration and dispersal for the two species.

Sarcophaga peregrina is considered to be of great ecological, medical and forensic significance, and has unusual biological characteristics such as an ovoviviparous reproductive pattern and adaptation to feed on carrion. The availability of a high‐quality genome will help to further reveal the mechanisms underlying these charcateristics. Here we present a de novo‐assembled genome at chromosome scale for S. peregrina. The final assembled genome was 560.31 Mb with contig N50 of 3.84 Mb. Hi‐C scaffolding reliably anchored six pseudochromosomes, accounting for 97.76% of the assembled genome. Moreover, 45.70% of repeat elements were identified in the genome. A total of 14,476 protein‐coding genes were functionally annotated, accounting for 92.14% of all predicted genes. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that S. peregrina and S. bullata diverged ~ 7.14 million years ago. Comparative genomic analysis revealed expanded and positively selected genes related to biological features that aid in clarifying its ovoviviparous reproduction and carrion‐feeding adaptations, such as lipid metabolism, olfactory receptor activity, antioxidant enzymes, proteolysis and serine‐type endopeptidase activity. Protein‐coding genes associated with ovoviparity, such as yolk proteins, transferrin and acid sphingomyelinase, were identified. This study provides a valuable genomic resource for S. peregrina, and sheds insight into further revealing the underlying molecular mechanisms of adaptive evolution. 相似文献

Marmosets of the genus Callithrix are specialized in the consumption of tree exudates to obtain essential nutritional resource by boring holes into bark with teeth. However, marmoset preferences for particular tree species, location, type, and other suitable factors that aid in exudate acquisition need further research. In the current study, the intensity of exudate use from Anadenanthera peregrina var. peregrina trees by hybrid marmosets Callithrix spp. groups was studied in five forest fragments in Viçosa, in the state of Minas, Brazil. Thirty-nine A. peregrina var. peregrina trees were examined and 8,765 active and non-active holes were analyzed. The trunk of A. peregrina var. peregrina had a lower number of holes than the canopy: 11% were found on the trunk and 89% were found on the canopy. The upper canopy was the preferred area by Callithrix spp. for obtaining exudates. The intensity of tree exploitation by marmosets showed a moderate-to-weak correlation with diameter at breast height (DBH) and total tree height. The overall results indicate that Anadenanthera peregrina var. peregrina provides food resources for hybrid marmosets (Callithrix spp.) and these animals prefer to explore this resource on the apical parts of the plant, where the thickness, location, and age of the branches are the main features involved in the acquisition of exudates. 相似文献

Isolated closed basins provide a natural laboratory to study the differentiation among wild populations. Here we examined the phylogenetic relationships of the Southern Altiplano populations of Biomphalaria, a genus with medical importance, using nuclear (ITS1, ITS2) and mitochondrial (16S) ribosomal gene markers and a species of Helisoma as outgroup. Phylogenetic trees based on separate and combined analyses show that these populations form a particular lineage within Biomphalaria along with Biomphalaria peregrina (d'Orbigny, 1835) and Biomphalaria oligoza Paraense, 1974. The origin of this clade was estimated to have occurred in the middle Pleistocene. Molecular analyses showed that the nominal species Biomphalaria crequii ( Courty, 1907 ) from the Salar de Ascotán and Biomphalaria costata (Biese, 1951) from the Salar de Carcote, previously synonymized with Biomphalaria andecola (d'Orbigny, 1835) and B. peregrina, respectively, are distinct taxa. Molecular data did not resolve the relationship of Biomphalaria aymara Valdovinos & Stuardo, 1991 from the Isluga swamps to other Biomphalaria species, but confirm that the populations from the Lauca and Huasco basins may represent a distinct undescribed species of Biomphalaria from the Southern Altiplano. Snails examined for trematodes were found to be positive in some Altiplano localities. © 2012 The Linnean Society of London, Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2012, 165 , 795–808. 相似文献

Much of the remaining “forest” vegetation in eastern Chiapas, Mexico is managed for coffee production. In this region coffee is grown under either the canopy of natural forest or under a planted canopy dominated by Inga spp. Despite the large differences in diversity of dominant plant species, both planted and rustic shade coffee plantations support a high overall diversity of bird species; we recorded approximately 105 species in each plantation type on fixed radius point counts. We accumulated a combined species list of 180 species on repeatedly surveyed transects through both coffee plantation types. These values are exceeded regionally only by moist tropical forest. Of the habitats surveyed, shade coffee was second only to acacia groves in the abundance and diversity of Nearctic migrants. The two plantation types have similar bird species lists and both are similar in composition to the dominant woodland—mixed pine-oak. Both types of shade coffee plantation habitats differ from other local habitats in supporting highly seasonal bird populations. Survey numbers almost double during the dry season—an increase that is found in omnivorous migrants and omnivorous, frugivorous, and nectarivorous resident species. Particularly large influxes were found for Tennessee warblers (Vermivora peregrina) and northern orioles (Icterus galbula) in Inga dominated plantations. 相似文献

The genus Moringa was the family of Moringaceae and Moringa oleifera and Moringa peregrina are the most famous species of Moringa. M. peregrina is widely grown in Saudi Arabia, Iran and India. Therefore, based on these reports, this study aimed to investigate the first systematic attempt to regulate the genetic diversity of the species M. peregrina in Saudi Arabian samples collected from several geographic locations using internal transcribed sequences. Genomic DNA was separated by CTAB extraction method and PCR was performed. Later on, DNA sequencing was performed for PCR products with ITS. In conclusion, the present study affords the first report on genetic stability of M. peregrina using ITS analysis in Saudi Arabia. Further studies are suggested in order to study in different regions. 相似文献

ABSTRACTAegilops L. includes wild species from which, over millennia, man has cultivated forms of Triticum L. Ten species of Aegilops occur in Italy. Three species are allochthonous and eight out of ten species are recorded in the Apulia region. Five out of the ten species have been included in Red Lists. Each taxon is presented and discussed, citing old and new sites of occurrence, by examining specimens from many different herbaria, and describing their ecology and habitats, according to the Directive 92/43 EEC. A new taxonomic key, for the identification of all Aegilops species growing in Italy, is provided. The occurrence of Aegilops caudata L., A. peregrina (Hack. in J. Fraser) Maire & Weiller and A. speltoides Tausch in Italy is doubtful. 相似文献

A new species of Notocotylus was found parasiting a freshwater pulmonate snail, Biomphalaria peregrina. Naturally infected snails were collected from two temporary ponds in the Nahuel Huapí National Park in Patagonia. The characteristics of the larval stages are presented. Experimental adults were recovered from the intestinal caeca of ducks and chicks. Adults of Notocotylus biomphalariae n. sp. exhibit an aspinose tegument, two lateral rows of 11 ventral glands and a median row of four, a uterus with 12–16 coils of which 2–4 are previtelline, a metraterm equivalent in size to 65–68% of the cirrus-sac length, a previtelline field which extends to the middle of the body, a lobed testis and a genital pore closely posterior to the intestinal bifurcation. The rediae have one to three cercariae. The cercariae, when shed, are trioculate and have a long tail; they encyst in the environment and become infective 12 days after encystment. 相似文献

Arrow-shaped P1 elements of Dollymae are characteristic for the Tournaisian conodont faunas worldwide but the phylogeny of this conodont remains obscure and its origin is cryptic. Dollymae peregrina n. sp., from the upper Famennian (upper expansa Zone) strata in the Holy Cross Mountains (central Poland), is the oldest representative of the Dollymae lineage. The morphology of the new species’ P1 element shows primitive features in comparison to other members of this genus and is transitional in the number of element processes. Thus D. peregrina n. sp. is most probably ancestral to the remaining species. The genus appears to be monophyletic, probably rooted in Pelekysgnathus within the Icriodontidae. 相似文献

Moringa peregrinais an endangered species of Moringaceae.M. peregrinais a multipurpose tree with a wide variety of potential uses including its medicinal activity. In our study, a rapid and efficient micropropagation protocol for M. peregrina has been established. In vitro germinated seedlings were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with different levels of either 6-benzyladenine (BA) or kinetin (Kin). The maximum shoot proliferation of 6.5 shoots per explant with 100 % shoot proliferation rate was observed on MS medium supplemented with 1.0 mg/l BA. On the other hand, MS medium supplemented with 1 mg/l indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) resulted in the maximum number of roots. Micropropagated plants were successfully acclimatized. Genetic stability of micropropagated plants was assessed using Inter-Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR). The amplification products were monomorphic in all in vitro grown plants. No polymorphism was detected indicating the genetic integrity of in vitro propagated plants. This micropropagation protocol could be useful for raising genetically uniform plants for plant propagation and commercial cultivation. 相似文献

Although the monophyly of Nemertea is strongly supported by unique morphological characters and results of molecular phylogenetic studies, their ingroup relationships are largely unresolved. To contribute solving this problem we studied sperm ultrastructure of 12 nemertean species that belong to different subtaxa representing the commonly recognized major monophyletic groups. The study yielded a set of 26 characters with an unexpected variation among species of the same genus (Tubulanus and Procephalothrix species), whereas other species varied in metric values or only one character state (Ramphogordius). In some species, the sperm nucleus has grooves (Zygonemertes virescens, Amphiporus imparispinosus) that may be twisted and give a spiral shape to the sperm head (Paranemertes peregrina, Emplectonema gracile). To make the characters from sperm ultrastructure accessible for further phylogenetic analyses, they were coded in a character matrix. Published data for eight species turned out to be sufficiently detailed to be included. Comparative evaluation of available information on the sperm ultrastructure suggests that subtaxa of Heteronemertea and Hoplonemertea are supported as monophyletic by sperm morphology. However, the data do not provide information on the existing contradictions regarding the internal relationships of “Palaeonemertea.” Nevertheless, our study provides evidence that sperm ultrastructure yields numerous potentially informative characters that will be included in upcoming phylogenetic analyses.

The phenology, mortality rate, dispersal and interactions with canopy species of in situ populations of Colpomenia peregrina (Sauv.) Hamel were recorded in British Columbia. Colpomenia produced uprights at different times of the year depending upon the locality. All populations studied had few delophycean (visible) plants in mid-winter. Colpomenia was fertile throughout the year, and the presence of reproductive tissue was largely independent of plant size. Mortality rates were lowest for large plants. The dispersal distance in the field was ≈2m. Canopy species removal did not affect the seasonality nor density of C. peregrina. 相似文献
