Nomenclaturel confusion surrounding the name Minolia variabilisH. Adams, 1873 is clarified. Joint consideration of overallshell morphology and radula structure indicates previous subfamilialand generic referral of the taxon to be incorrect. This necessitatesthe proposal of Pagodatrochus gen. nov. which is provisionallyplaced in the Gibbulinae. Trochus mariei Fischer, 1886, andMinolia eutyches Melvill, 1918, are shown to be synonyms. Lectotypesof the following species are designated and figured: M. eutyches,Gibbula holdsworthana G. & H. Nevill, 1871, and Vanitrochustragema (Melvill & Standen, 1896); the holotype of Trochusmariei is also figured. Minolia charmosyne Melvill, 1918, issynonymised with Gibbula holdsworthana G. & H. Nevill, 1871. (Received 24 April 1988; accepted 26 May 1988) 相似文献

Geographic variation in the marine, Indo-Pacific cowry, Cypraea caputserpentis, involves clinal variations that parallel the ontogenetic development of adult shell characteristics. Cypraea caputdraconis, a closely related species endemic to Easter Island and Sala y Gómez, is morphologically similar to juvenile C. caputserpentis. Using multivariate measures of size and shape, I examine these patterns as a possible outcome of heterochrony, or changes in the timing of developmental events in ontogeny. Whorl-expansion rates of juvenile shells are significantly higher in C. caputdraconis when compared to C. caputserpentis and are negatively correlated with surface seawater temperatures among populations of C caputserpentis. High expansion rates, often associated with slow growth, result in a delay in the onset of lateral callus development and subsequent paedomorphosis. Ontogenetic trajectories calculated from growth series of adult and preadult shells indicate that paedomorphosis results from the combined effects of neoteny and post-displacement. Paedomorphosis among cowries may result from the advantages of larger body size relative to shell size under reduced predation intensities and associated increases in fecundity. 相似文献

Infection threads were observed abundantly in the root hairsof Lotus corniculatus L., but very rarely in L. hispidus, Desf.,in response to infection by Rhizobium strains 3001 and 3002.Numbers of infections differed between species and strains andwere also affected by temperature. In L. corniculatus all thenodules originated from infection threads, but in L. hispidusmost nodules appeared to originate by direct bacterial penetrationthrough the epidermis, and infected root hairs were very rarelyseen. Both species of Lotus were tolerant to cold temperatures,the minimum temperature for nodulation being 10 ?C. The optimumtemperature for nodulation of L. corniculatus was 20 ?C with3001 and between 27 and 30 ?C with 3002, a few nodules beingformed with both strains at 35 ?C. L. hispidus formed more nodulesthan L. corniculatus and the optimum temperature for both thestrains was between 25 and 27 ?C. No infection threads were seen in root hairs or nodules of Stylosanthesguyanensis (Aubl.) S. W. and S. humilis H.B.K. infected withRhizobium strain CB1552, and all the nodules were formed inthe axils of lateral roots. Optimum temperature for nodulationin S. guyanensis and S. humilis was around 27 ?C; nodulationwas completely inhibited at 15 ?C and very few nodules wereformed at 35 ?C. Both in Lotus and Stylosanthes the transfer of plants from suboptimalto optimal and supraoptimal temperatures increased nodulation.Delayed inoculation and excision of root tips increased nodulation. 相似文献

The Dry Storage of Citrus Seeds 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The survival of seeds of lemon (Citrus limon L.), lime [C. arantifolia(Christm.) Swing.] and sour orange (C. aurantium L.) was examinedunder a wide range of constant moisture contents and temperatures.Seed longevity was increased by decreasing the moisture contentand temperature of the storage environment. Maximum viabilitywas maintained in the combination of storage conditions includingthe lowest moisture content (5 per cent) and lowest temperature(20 °C) investigated. The practicality of dry storageof citrus seed for genetic conservation is discussed.

Early embryo growth rates were studied in the nine annual speciesof Cicer L., namely, C. arietinum L., C. bijugum Rech., C. chorassanicum(Bge.) M. Pop., C. cuneatum Rich., C. echinospermum Dav., C.judaicum Boiss, C. pinnatifidum J. and S., C. reticulatum Lad.and C. yamashitae Kit. The number of embryo cells increasedexponentially with time and was log linear in all the species.Species differed in their mean cell doubling time (MCDT). Cicerechinospermum and C. yamashitae had, respectively, the longestand the shortest MCDT which ranged from 9.67 to 16.15 h forthe nine species. Failure of successful interspecific hybridizationbetween C. arietinum and the wild annual species was only partlyexplained by differences in MCDT of the parental species. Relativegenetic closeness still plays the major role in determiningsuccess of interspecific hybridization in Cicer. Chickpea, Cicer, embryo, interspecific hybridization, suspensor 相似文献

Seed survival data for eight diverse species, namely the cerealbarley (Hordeum vulgare L.), the grain legumes chickpea (Cicerarietinum L.), cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.] and soyabean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.], the timber trees elm (Ulmus carpinifoliaGleditsch.), mahogany (Swietenia humilis Zucc.), and terb (Terminaliabrassii Exell.), and the leaf vegetable lettuce (Lactuca sativaL.) were compared over a wide range of storage environments(temperatures from 13 °C to 90 °C, seed moisturecontents from 1.8 to 25% f. wt) using a viability equation developedpreviously. In accordance with that equation, the effect oftemperature on seed longevity was dependent upon the temperaturerange. The temperature coefficients of the viability equationdid not differ significantly (P > 0.05) among the eight speciesdespite their contrasting taxonomy. Thus the quantitative relationbetween seed longevity and temperature does not vary among diversespecies. The same conclusion was obtained for the coefficientsof a proposed alternative model of the relation between seedlongevity and temperature. The implications of the two temperaturemodels in the viability equation for extrapolations to low andvery low temperatures are discussed.

5-Keto-D-[1-14C]gluconic acid, the most effective precursorof L(+)tartaric acid among all labeled compounds which haveever been tested in grapes, was found to be a good precursorof L(+)tartaric acid in a species of Pelargonium. The synthesisof labeled L(+)tartaric acid from D-[1-14C]glucose in Pelargoniumwas remarkably depressed when a 0.5% solution of D-gluconateor 5-keto-D-gluconate was administered continuously to leavestogether with D-[1-14C]glucose. Our results provide strong evidence that D-[1-14C]glucose ismetabolized in Pelargonium to give labeled L(+)tartaric acidvia (probably D-gluconic acid and) 5-keto-D-gluconic acid withoutpassing through L-ascorbic acid. Labeled L-idonic acid was found in young leaves of Pelargoniumwhich had been labeled with L-[U-14C]ascorbic acid. The synthesisof the labeled L-idonic acid increased when a 0.1% solutionof L-threonate was administered continuously to leaves togetherwith L-[U-14C]ascorbic acid. Specifically labeled compounds, recognized as the members ofthe synthetic pathway for L(+)tartaric acid from L-ascorbicacid via L-idonic acid in grapes, were administered to youngleaves of Pelargonium. Each compound (2-keto-L-[U-14C]idonicacid, L-[U-14C]idonic acid, 5-keto-D-[1-14C]gluconic acid and5-keto-D-[6-14C]gluconic acid) was partly metabolized, as ingrapes. The metabolic pathway starting from L-ascorbic acidto L(+)tartaric acid via L-idonic acid, however, did not actuallycontribute to the synthesis of L(+)tartaric acid in Pelargoniumprobably because the activity of each metabolic step was muchlower than that observed in grapes.

A Low-Moisture-Content Limit to Logarithmic Relations Between Seed Moisture Content and Longevity 总被引:16,自引:1,他引:15
Seeds of quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.), sunflower (Helianthusannuus L.) and linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) showed negativelogarithmic relations between longevity and moisture contentsbetween 4.4 and 15.4, 3.2 and 13.0, and 3.2 and 15.5%, respectively,in hermetic storage at 65 °C. However, between 1.8 and 3.1,1.1 and 1.9, and 1.1 and 2.1%, respectively, longevity did notvary. The critical moisture content, below which further reductionin moisture content no longer increased longevity in hermeticstorage at 65 °C, for each species was 4.1, 2.04 and 2.7%,respectively.

Different growth responses of C3 and C4 grasses to seasonal water and nitrogen regimes and competition in a pot experiment 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Understanding temporal niche separation between C3 and C4 species(e.g. C3 species flourishing in a cool spring and autumn whileC4 species being more active in a hot summer) is essential forexploring the mechanism for their co-existence. Two parallelpot experiments were conducted, with one focusing on water andthe other on nitrogen (N), to examine growth responses to wateror nitrogen (N) seasonality and competition of two co-existingspecies Leymus chinensis (C3 grass) and Chloris virgata (C4grass) in a grassland. The two species were planted in eithermonoculture (two individuals of one species per pot) or a mixture(two individuals including one L. chinensis and one C. virgataper pot) under three different water or N seasonality regimes,i.e. the average model (AM) with water or N evenly distributedover the growing season, the one-peak model (OPM) with morewater or N in the summer than in the spring and autumn, andthe two-peak model (TPM) with more water or N in the springand autumn than in the summer. Seasonal water regimes significantlyaffected biomass in L. chinensis but not in C. virgata, whileN seasonality impacted biomass and relative growth rate of bothspecies over the growing season. L. chinensis accumulated morebiomass under the AM and TPM than OPM water or N treatments.Final biomass of C. virgata was less impacted by water and Nseasonality than that of L. chinensis. Interspecific competitionsignificantly decreased final biomass in L. chinensis but notin C. virgata, suggesting an asymmetric competition betweenthe two species. The magnitude of interspecific competitionvaried with water and N seasonality. Changes in productivityand competition balance of L. chinensis and C. virgata undershifting seasonal water and N availabilities suggest a contributionof seasonal variability in precipitation and N to the temporalniche separation between C3 and C4 species. Key words: Chloris virgata, competition, growth, Leymus chinensis, nitrogen seasonality, water seasonality

Laboratory and field experiments involving Asplenium ruta-murariaL., Asplenium trichomanes L. subsp. quadrivalens D.E. Meyeremend. Lovis and Asplenium scolopendrium L. [= Phyllitis scolopendrium(L.) Newm.] revealed differences in their temperature requirementsfor germination and in their sexual development on soil. Thegermination responses of A. trichomanes and A. scolopendriumto culture temperatures of 10, 15, 20 and 25 °C were verysimilar and all spores were able to germinate at 10 °C.Spores of A. ruta-muraria differed in that germination was slowerat 15-25 °C and very much delayed, or even inhibited, at10 °C. Both laboratory and field cultures of A. trichomanesand A. scolopendrium produced male, female and bisexual gametophyteswhereas those of A. ruta-muraria produced only males and bisexuals.The ecological significance of these differences is discussed.Copyright1994, 1999 Academic Press Fern, Asplenium ruta-muraria, Asplenium trichomanes, Asplenium scolopendrium, Phyllitis scolopendrium, spore germination, gametophyte, reproductive biology, temperature effects, field experiments 相似文献

Ash and silica contents and their depositional patterns in differenttissues of 27 plants growing in the Ocean Springs area of Mississippi(many grow elsewhere), were determined. Silica content of driedplant parts varied from no more than 0 per cent in Borrichiafrutescens (L.) D.C. stems to 18.76 per cent in Arundinariagigantea (Walt.) Muhl. leaves. Ash content varied from 0·73per cent in Cliftonia monophylla (Lam.) Britt. ex Sarg. stemsto 44·02 per cent in Batis maritima L. leaves. Plantssuch as Batis maritima L., Borrichia frutescens (L.) D.C., Salicorniabigelovii Torr. and Salicornia virginica L. which grew in salinemarshes had high ash contents due NaCl in their tissues. Morusrubra L. leaves had a high silica content for a dicotyledonousplant (3·12 per cent). Energy-dispersive X-ray analysisshows that the distribution of the element silicon is clearlyrelated to certain epidermal structures such as ridges, cellwalls, rows of irregular shaped structures lengthwise of theleaf, dumb-bell shaped ones and especially in trichomes. Therewas a high concentration of silica containing trichomes alongthe veins on the underside of Morus rubra L. leaves and thiswould protect them from insects. The outer parts of the inflorescencesof Ctenium aromaticum (Walt.) Wood, Elymus virginicus L., Juncuspolycephalus Michx. and phragmites communis Trin. were highlysilicified. This should give the seed some protection from insects.The sharp particles would be irritating to oesophageal tissuesand might be implicated in such a cancer. 相似文献

The rate of photosynthesis of leaves of perennial ryegrass (Loliumperenne L.) and white clover (Trifollum pratense L.) grown atdifferent temperatures was measured at a range of temperatures.There was a small effect of the temperature at which a leafhad grown on its photosynthetic rate, but a large effect ofmeasurement temperature, especially in bright light, where photosyntheticrates at 15°C were about twice those at 5°C. It appearsthat temperature could affect sward photosynthesis in the field.Ryegrass and clover had similar photosynthetic rates which respondedsimilarly to temperature.

Effects of Fluctuating Temperatures on Germination 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Germination responses to alternating daily cycles involvingtransfers between different temperatures over the range 0 toc. 40?C were investigated in four species: Lycopus europaeusL., Clarkia unguiculata Lindl., Apium graveolens L. cv. GiantRed, and Silene dioica (L.) Clairv. Comparisons of the germination of these species revealed distinctivedifferences which could be related to particular features ofthe geographical regions or ecological habitats in which theyoccur naturally. The effects of fluctuating as opposed to constant temperaturesvaried from one species to another. L. europaeus depended almostabsolutely on fluctuating temperatures for germination. Germinationof S. dioica was greatly increased by fluctuating temperatures.Moderate increases occurred over a restricted temperature rangein A. graveolens cv. Giant Red and C. unguiculata was affectedin only minor ways. These results are discussed in relationto previous attempts to explain the mechanisms responsible forthe frequently beneficial effects of fluctuating temperatureson germination. 相似文献
