稀有植物小丛红景天花部综合特征与繁育系统

对稀有物种生物学特征及繁育系统的研究将有利于我们对稀有物种的保育。该文通过野外定位观测稀有植物小丛红景天(Rhodiola dumulosa)的花部综合特征,并运用杂交指数、花粉-胚珠比的方法首次对其繁育系统进行初步测定。结果表明:该物种单花花期一般为5~6 d,开花过程中花柱逐渐伸长并向外弯曲,子房开裂并逐渐伸长,花药散粉具有先后顺序,一般外轮对萼花药先散粉,其后1 d左右对瓣花药开始散粉。单花花期依照其形态和散粉时间可分为6个阶段:花蕾期、内轮散粉期、内轮散粉末期、外轮散粉期、外轮散粉末期和凋谢期。而种群花期一般可持续30 d以上,不同海拔观测地点有所不同,海拔2 202 m处的观测地点B开花物候最为滞后。由于其杂交指数不小于4,花粉-胚珠比在700~1 000之间, 根据Dafni(1992)和Cruden(1977)的标准,初步判定该物种的繁育系统属于异交为主,部分自交亲和,传粉过程需要传粉者。

紫荣莉的花部综合特征与繁育系统

采用定株观察,运用花粉-胚珠比、联苯胺-过氧化氢法、杂交指数和套袋实验等方法,对紫茉莉（Mirabilis jalapa L．）的开花状态及繁育系统进行了研究。结果表明：种群花期一般为6—10月,单花花期一般为2—3d;单花花期依其形态和散粉时间可分为散粉前期、散粉初期、散粉盛期、花闭合期、凋谢期5个时期;在花闭合时期,晴天有66．80％的花的柱头在闭合花冠内,阴天时有81．65％的花的柱头在闭合花冠内,雨天柱头在闭合花冠内的花可达99．22％;按照杂交指数,其繁育系统属于自交亲和,有时需要传粉者;P／O值约为269,判断繁育系统类型属于兼性自交;开花6h左右,柱头的可授性最强,此时花粉活力、置落在柱头上的花粉数及其在柱头上的萌发率都达到最高。套袋实验显示,紫茉莉自然条件下没有无融合现象,繁育系统为自交、异交亲和,以自交为主,但有时也需要传粉者;在长期的环境选择压力下,紫荣莉选择将更多的柱头留在闭合花冠内,是其对不利环境条件的一种适应进化策略。

采用定株观察,运用花粉-胚珠比、联苯胺-过氧化氢法、杂交指数和套袋实验等方法,对紫茉莉(Mirabilis jalapa L.)的开花状态及繁育系统进行了研究.结果表明:种群花期一般为6-10月,单花花期一般为2～3 d;单花花期依其形态和散粉时间可分为散粉前期、散粉初期、散粉盛期、花闭合期、凋谢期5个时期;在花闭合时期,晴天有66.80%的花的柱头在闭合花冠内,阴天时有81.65%的花的柱头在闭合花冠内,雨天柱头在闭合花冠内的花可达99.22%;按照杂交指数,其繁育系统属于自交亲和,有时需要传粉者;P/O值约为269,判断繁育系统类型属于兼性自交;开花6 h左右,柱头的可授性最强,此时花粉活力、置落在柱头上的花粉数及其在柱头上的萌发率都达到最高.套袋实验显示,紫茉莉自然条件下没有无融合现象,繁育系统为自交、异交亲和,以自交为主,但有时也需要传粉者;在长期的环境选择压力下,紫茉莉选择将更多的柱头留在闭合花冠内,是其对不利环境条件的一种适应进化策略.     

5种地黄花部综合特征与繁育系统的初步研究

生殖隔离是物种分化与延续的基础,地黄属植物是否存在生殖隔离仍不清楚。通过实地观测地黄属5个物种(天目地黄、湖北地黄、裂叶地黄、地黄和茄叶地黄)自然种群的花部形态、开花动态、花蜜体积、花蜜的糖浓度及其日变化、杂交指数、花粉-胚珠比等指标,结合人工授粉套袋,对地黄属植物的花部综合特征和繁育系统进行研究。结果显示:(1)地黄属植物的花为两性花,单花花期5～7 d,种群花期40～60 d;5种地黄在花序类型、花形态、花粉量、花粉-胚珠比等方面都存在差异,其中茄叶地黄的花粉完全败育。(2)5种地黄属植物的繁育系统属于异交,部分自交亲和,需要传粉者,不具有无融合生殖特性,地黄与茄叶地黄存在强烈营养繁殖。(3)5种地黄属植物的花朵基部有蜜腺可以产生糖浓度较高的花蜜,这也支持传粉者的存在,但除地黄确定为蜜蜂传粉外,其它地黄植物在野外并未观测到有效的传粉者,可能与地黄的散生特性、生境相互隔离以及传粉观测期气象条件恶劣有关。研究认为,5种地黄属植物较长的花期能有效弥补传粉者访问频率低的不足;除遗传屏障外,推测地黄属5个物种花展示方式的差异可能吸引不同的传粉者,加之地理、生态因素的作用导致了5种地黄属植物繁育系统的分化。     

灌木铁线莲繁育系统特征及其花下垂现象的适应性意义

该研究对兰州市北山地区自然居群下的灌木铁线莲(Clematis fruticosa Turcz.)的繁育系统特征进行了实验分析,并通过对其花朵进行人工上举处理,研究了花朝向改变(花朵上举)后访花昆虫、花粉数量和质量变化以及结籽率和种子特征的变化,以此反证花朵下垂的适应性意义。结果表明:(1)自然状态下,灌木铁线莲的P/O值为9579.5,属于专性异花授粉;套袋实验结果显示,灌木铁线莲自交亲和,兼具异交和自交的混合交配系统,但不存在无融合生殖现象。(2)灌木铁线莲的主要传粉者为东亚无垫蜂(Amegill aparhypate)和中华蜜蜂(Apis cerana);人工上举处理改变花朝向后,两种传粉昆虫的访花频率和单花停留时间与自然条件下没有发生变化,但因雨水冲刷造成其花粉数量显著下降,且阳光直射使花粉活力显著下降,说明花朝向改变会降低其雄性适合度。(3)花朝向改变后,灌木铁线莲结籽率显著下降,种子宿存花柱长度降低,但并没有影响种子大小和千粒重,说明花朝向改变降低了雌性适合度,并影响到灌木铁线莲种子传播。研究结果证实,灌木铁线莲花期花朵下垂现象对有效传粉昆虫影响不大,但可以显著提高植物雄性适合度和雌性适合度,并作为一种有效的适应策略保障了其繁殖成功。     

关苍术花部综合特征与繁育系统的研究

采用定点观察,运用杂交指数估算、花粉/胚珠比(P/O)测定、套袋授粉等方法,对关苍术的花部综合特征及繁育系统进行研究。结果表明:种群花期为7月下旬至9月初,单花序花期为12~17 d,小花日开放高峰期为早上7:00~8:00;花粉活力最高(90%以上)在开花后2 h以内,而此时其柱头尚无可授性,柱头在花开48~72 h以内具有较强可授性;花粉/胚珠比为6 690,杂交指数为5,繁育系统为专性异交,优势访花者为蜂类和蝇类;套袋和授粉实验结果表明关苍术不存在无融合生殖现象,自交和同株异花结实率很低,其繁育系统以异交为主。通过关苍术花部综合特征和繁育系统的研究,进一步了解其生物学特性,为关苍术资源保护和人工培育提供了理论基础。     

连翘花的结构与繁育系统研究

通过定株观察、解剖和人工套袋交叉授粉试验对连翘花的生长发育和繁殖系统进行研究.结果表明:(1)连翘具有2种避免自交的方式,雌雄异位和雌雄异熟.其雌雄异位表现为长雄蕊短雌蕊花型和短雄蕊长雌蕊花型;雌雄异熟表现为长雄蕊短雌蕊花型为雄蕊先于雌蕊成熟,短雄蕊长雌蕊花型表现为雌蕊先于雄蕊成熟.(2)连翘花P/O值测定和户外套袋交叉授粉试验显示,P/O值为2 000±300;不同类型花的异花授粉结果率在50.64%~80.32%,其中短型花的花粉授到长型花柱头的结果率最高,达80.32%,而长型花和短型花的同型花授粉结果率分别为2.92%和34.15%,表明连翘的异花授粉结果率高于自花授粉,以异交为主,其繁育系统属兼性异交.研究结果认为,连翘雌雄异位和雌雄异熟是其自然结果率低下的主要原因,为进一步探讨连翘在木犀科中的系统进化提供了生殖生态学的依据.     

濒危植物长柄双花木的花部综合特征与繁育系统

 通过野外观察,运用杂交指数、花粉-胚珠比、人工授粉和套袋实验及等位酶电泳等方法,对长柄双花木(Disanthus cercidifolius Maxim. var. longipes H. T. Chang)自然种群和人工种群的开花状态、繁育系统进行了研究。结果如下：该种单花花期一般6～7 d,开花过程中柱头始终高于花药的位置,花药散粉具有先后顺序,一般2花药先散粉,其余3花药滞后1～2 d。单花花期依其形态和散粉时间可分为5个时期：即散粉前期、散粉初期、散粉盛期、凋谢期。种群开花一般历时49～55 d,但不同地点、年份之间有所差异,推测开花持续时间不同主要是环境条件所致。由于其杂交指数大于4,花粉-胚珠比等于1 250,结合人工套袋和授粉实验以及等位酶电泳结果可以确定该种的繁育系统属于异交为主,部分自交亲和,传粉过程需要传粉者。花粉竞争可能是导致该种濒危的主要的生殖生物学原因。     

广西特有属——异裂菊属开花生物学及繁育系统特征

以异裂菊属5个种的实生苗为试验材料,通过田间观察,采用TTC法、联苯胺-过氧化氢法、杂交指数、花粉-胚珠比等方法,对异裂菊属的开花物候、花部特征、繁育系统及访花昆虫行为进行了研究。结果表明:(1)绢叶异裂菊的花期最早,为6~7月份;小花异裂菊和柳州异裂菊花期为6~8月份;凹脉异裂菊和异裂菊的花期为8~12月份,整个花期持续约5个多月,单花花期约为3d,单个花序花期约为5d。(2)异裂菊属的花粉在开花后1~18h具有活力,柱头的可授性持续约48h;杂交指数OCI为4,花粉/胚珠比(P/O)为1 450~2 250,繁育系统属于异交、部分自交亲和,需要传粉者。(3)传粉昆虫主要是食蚜蝇科灰带管食蚜蝇和胡蜂科黑尾胡蜂,昆虫访花高峰期在上午10:00~12:00,每次可连续访问多朵花,每朵花访问时间约为2~10s。     

云锦杜鹃的开花动态与繁育系统研究

对3个云锦杜鹃种群的开花动态和传粉方式等野外定位观测结果显示:花芽在花朵开放后形成雏 形,经过8～9月的生长后成形,次年4月复苏,形成含6～12朵花的总状伞形花序,5月初开花,花期接近25 d。花生命周期为5～8d,其中种群G的周期最短,平均为5.8d,主要原因是光照时间长,湿度相对较低,花形 态较小。开花后第二天到第三天,花药开裂,散出粘连成串的花粉,悬挂在花柱的中上部,同时柱头进入可授 期;第五天到第六天,花瓣与花托分开并前移到花柱,使花柱倒垂,花粉串能粘附到柱头上。根据人工授粉试 验和花粉落置观察的结果,云锦杜鹃的繁育系统为混合交配型,自然条件下为花后自花授粉,主要借助花瓣脱 落来传播花粉;但根据杂交指数估算和花粉-胚珠比测定,云锦杜鹃的繁育系统为异交,自交亲和,需要传粉 者,说明云锦杜鹃可能是由虫媒传粉向自花传粉演化。     

蛛网萼开花物候、花部特征及繁育系统研究

为探讨蛛网萼(Platycrater arguta)传粉生物学特性,该研究以江西上饶广丰铜钹山国家级自然保护区、江西阳际峰国家级自然保护区蛛网萼为材料,采用野外观察和人工授粉等方法,对蛛网萼开花物候、花部形态及繁育系统进行了研究。结果表明:(1)蛛网萼为伞形花序,种群花期一般在6月中下旬至8月中旬,单花花期为2~3 d,花序花期持续10 d。两个保护区由于年均温度与光照的不同,花期进程有显著不同。(2)蛛网萼可孕花与不孕花从绿色变为白色时对访花昆虫有吸引作用,不孕花能够增加昆虫的访花频率。(3)蛛网萼花粉胚珠比(P/O)为2 520~3 100,杂交指数即是3或4。(4)繁育体系属于以异交为主,部分自交亲和,需要传粉者;熊蜂(Bombus sp.)、四条蜂(Apis florea)和油茶地蜂(Andrena cammelia)是蛛网萼的有效传粉昆虫。(5)套袋和人工授粉结果显示,蛛网萼为兼性自交和异交授粉,异株异花授粉能显著提高坐果率及结籽率,这主要与生境中有效传粉昆虫种类、数量少,花粉传递效率低,种群间基因流交流降低以及柱头自花及同株异花传粉等有关,从而表明在蛛网萼现有生境中植株的早期生殖成功受到影响。蛛网萼种群分布范围扩张以有性繁殖为主,无性繁殖作为重要补充及繁殖保障。

观测了7种蓼属植物的花部形态特征,并运用花粉-胚珠比和杂交系数的方法对其繁育系统进行了初步研究。结果表明这7种蓼属植物的繁育系统应为自交和异交并存的混合交配型。P/O比与花序长度和花朵直径有明显的正相关关系,异型花的P/O比要明显高于同型花的P/O值。     

Elevational gradients of species diversity, breeding system and floral traits of orchid species on Réunion Island

Aim This research investigates changes in orchid species composition and diversity, plant breeding system and floral traits along an elevational gradient spanning 2300 m (200–2500 m). Location The study was conducted on Réunion Island (Mascarene Islands, Indian Ocean). Methods Data on the distribution of 135 orchid species from 35 genera were gathered from 121 localities situated between 200 and 2500 m a.s.l. For each locality, 500‐m transects were walked and each orchid species was recorded. Measures of species diversity (species richness, a modified Shannon diversity index and the modified Shannon equitability index) were related to altitude using ordinary least‐squares regression. Species turnover and elevational gradients in species composition were determined by: (1) relating scores of detrended correspondence analysis to altitude using ordinary least‐squares regression, and (2) relating Sørensen similarity indices to differences in altitude using Mantel tests. Finally, the average proportion of species displaying similar floral traits or showing the same breeding system were compared among altitudinal zones. Results Species richness per transect ranged from 1 to 36 species (mean 14.3) and decreased significantly with increasing altitude. Similarly, species evenness decreased significantly with increasing altitude. Around 50% of all orchid species were rare (occurred in fewer than 5% of all localities), and only a few occurred in more than 50% of all localities. Orchid species composition changed continuously with altitude, indicating turnover of species with increasing altitude. Analogously, orchid breeding systems and floral traits also changed with altitude. Relatively more auto‐pollinating species were found at high altitudes compared with mid‐ and low‐altitude sites where animal‐pollinated species were most abundant. Species characterized by a cleistogamous pollination system were found almost exclusively in high‐altitude sites, whereas the proportion of species displaying floral traits related to pollination by long‐tongued moths (sphinx) and flies sharply decreased with increasing altitude. Main conclusions Environmental conditions associated with altitude exert a large influence on orchid species composition and the distribution of orchid breeding systems. Our results revealed a high proportion of auto‐pollinating species, and confirm earlier findings that auto‐pollinating species are more frequent in high‐altitude sites.     

海南凤仙花与龙州凤仙花花的形态补充描述

凤仙花属植物的花部形态历来是该属的属下划分及种间界定的关键性状,基于大量的有花标本及野外实地调查,并参照了模式标本对海南凤仙花和龙州凤仙花的花部形态进行了补充描述。     

Comparison of floral properties and breeding system in dimorphic Buddleja delavayi (Scrophulariaceae)

In this study, floral color, scent composition and emission rate, nectar property, pollinators, and breeding system of dimorphic Buddleja delavayi Gagnep. were investigated. Flower color of B. delavayi was determined using a standard color chart and spectrophotometer, and two distinct color polymorphisms were observed having purple or white flowers. Floral scents of B. delavayi were collected using dynamic headspace adsorption and identified with coupled gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. In total, 28 compounds were identified from the flowers of B. delavayi. The identified scents were divided into three chemical classes based on their biosynthetic origin: terpenes, fatty acid derivatives, and benzenoids. The scent profiles in all individuals were dominated by a few components, such as lilac aldehyde and alcohol, 4-oxoisophorone, benaldehyde, and oxoisophorone oxide. Floral scent composition (benzenoids and terpenes) showed a significant difference between white and purple flower morphs. Flower color–flower scent associations in B. delavayi were identified with two distinct scent profiles in the two color phenotypes. The studies of other floral characteristics (nectar, floral visitors, breeding system, and fruit set) indicated that floral scent emission rate, nectar volume, visitor visitation frequency, and natural fruit set were not significantly different between the two flower color morphs. Bagging experiments revealed that seed production of B. delavayi is dependent mainly on honeybee Apis cerana. Lastly, this study implies that dimorphic floral color in B. delavayi may have been maintained by floral visitors and nectar guide color.     

Effects of various chemical agents and early ethylene production on floral senescence of Hibiscus syriacus L.

To understand the factors that induce floral senescence in Hibiscus syriacus L., we have investigated the effects of various chemical agents on flower senescence at two different flowering stages, before and after full bloom, as well as the relationship between flower longevity and endogenous ethylene production before full bloom. Treatments with ethylene, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC), and ethephon enhanced floral senescence, while aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) promoted flower longevity regardless of treatment timing. Although ethanol slightly extended flower longevity, abscisic acid (ABA), nitric oxide, boric acid and sucrose, which have been reported to affect flower longevity or senescence, had no effect on H. syriacus floral senescence. The polyamine spermine (SPM), methylglyoxal-bis(guanylhydrazone) (MGBG), an inhibitor of SPM biosynthesis, and cycloheximide (CHI) accelerated flower senescence when applied before full bloom, but had no effect when applied after full bloom. SPM, MGBG and CHI treatments resulted in enhanced ethylene production during flower opening, and the promotion of flower senescence is mediated by ethylene production prior to full bloom. Furthermore, endogenous ethylene, spontaneously produced before blooming, was closely associated with floral senescence. These results suggest that ethylene production during flower opening plays a key role in determining the timing of Hibiscus flower senescence.     

浙江红花油茶 × 广宁红花油茶杂交子代的表型性状及其SSR分子鉴定

浙江红花油茶(Camellia chekiangoleosa)种仁含油率和油酸含量高,广宁红花油茶(C. semiserrata)具有较强的生长势和抗性。为了利用浙江红花油茶和广宁红花油茶的优点,培育优良种质材料,该研究对浙江红花油茶与广宁红花油茶的45个F₁杂交子代进行表型性状分析,以掌握杂交子代的表型性状情况,同时利用SSR标记对其进行杂种真伪鉴定,并筛选可用于油茶杂交子代鉴定的SSR标记。结果表明:(1)浙江红花油茶 × 广宁红花油茶的F₁子代表现为树形高大、生长迅速且其叶脉、萼片、柱头均倾向于父本广宁红花油茶的性状,而花和叶片形态等性状与母本浙江红花油茶接近,叶片颜色与大小等特征介于双亲特征之间。(2)从32个SSR标记中筛选出了8个可区分双亲且能明确杂交子代来源的完全互补型标记,用于开展杂交子代鉴定,其中7个标记杂种鉴定效率高达100%,1个标记杂种鉴定效率为55.56%; 8个标记相互补充鉴定出45个杂交子代全是真杂种。(3)8个SSR标记对杂交子代进行的鉴定能力验证表明,利用这些SSR标记鉴定油茶杂交子代是可行的。该研究结果为油茶物种间的杂交育种提供了参考,同时也为后续油茶物种间的杂交子代SSR标记鉴定提供了依据。     

NaCl胁迫条件下木槿嫁接苗和扦插苗及其砧木海滨木槿的生理差异

采用盆栽试验方法,对0(CK)、2、4、6、8和10 g·kg-1 NaCl胁迫条件下木槿(Hibiscus syriacus L.)和海滨木槿(H.hamabo Sieb.et Zucc.)扦插苗及木槿嫁接苗(以海滨木槿为砧木)叶片的叶绿素、脯氨酸和可溶性糖含量,超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性,相对电导率和丙二醛(MDA)含量以及根、茎、叶中的K+和Na+含量,K+/Na+值等生理指标的差异进行了比较分析.结果表明:在不同质量浓度NaCl胁迫条件下,木槿嫁接苗、木槿和海滨木槿扦插苗的各项生理指标均有明显差异.各处理组木槿嫁接苗叶片的叶绿素、脯氨酸和可溶性糖含量不但高于对照也均高于木槿和海滨木槿扦插苗;总体上,尽管各处理组3种苗木的叶片相对电导率和MDA含量均高于对照,但木槿扦插苗的叶片相对电导率最高、MDA含量最低;随NaCl质量浓度的提高,各处理组3种苗木叶片的SOD活性均呈现波动的变化趋势,且波动幅度较小.在NaCl胁迫条件下,3种苗木根、茎和叶中的K+含量呈现波动的变化趋势,其中叶中的K+含量均最高;随NaCl胁迫浓度的提高,3种苗木不同器官的Na+含量均不同程度提高且均显著高于对照,而K+/Na+值均呈下降趋势;总体上看,不同处理组海滨木槿扦插苗根和木槿嫁接苗地上部分的K+/Na+值均最大.另外,在10 g·kg-1NaCl胁迫条件下木槿扦插苗植株均未成活.研究结果显示:以海滨木槿为砧木能提高木槿的耐盐性,使木槿嫁接苗的多项生理指标优于其扦插苗.
