紫堇属模式标本馆藏现状及分析

模式标本是发表新种的依据,对稳定物种学名至关重要。紫堇属(Corydalis DC.)隶属于罂粟科(Papaveraceae)荷包牡丹亚科(Fumarioideae)紫堇族(Corydaleae),是分类学研究的困难属之一。该研究首先基于《中国植物志》、Flora of China以及全球物种名录查询获得被认可的526个紫堇属物种,然后通过检索全球数字化植物标本数据库(JSTOR)、全球生物多样性信息网络数据库(GBIF)和中国数字植物标本馆(CVH)获得了其中395个物种1 894份模式标本,最后对获得的标本信息进行核实、整理和归纳,提取模式类型、馆藏地、采集人、模式产地和采集时间等关键信息进行统计分析。结果表明:紫堇属每个物种平均仅有约5份模式标本; 该属模式标本散落在全球80个标本馆中,其中超过85%为国外采集者采集。未来应当结合文献,加强对该属模式标本的信息考证和规范化整理。     

Seed-coat anatomy of japanese species ofCorydalis andDicentra (Papaveraceae; Fumarioideae)

Development and structure of seed-coat were examined in 16 species ofCorydalis and two species ofDicentra. Neither the tegmen (developed ii) nor the testa (developed oi) is multiplicative during seed development. Mature seed-coat is consistent in all the species examined in having mechanical structure in the exo- or endotesta. Differences are found in (1) which of the integumentary layers develops into the main mechanical layer (exotesta or endotesta), (2) whether a mesotesta is differentiated or not, and (3) whether the endotegmen is persistent as a layer of thick-walled cells, is persistent only partially, or is thoroughly degenerated. Theses seed-coat characters distinguish six groups of species (i.e., four groups inCorydalis and two inDicentra), which represent well infrageneric taxa proposed on the other characters. Evidence from seed-coat anatomy further suggests thatDicentra spectabilis (subg.Hedycapnos) retains the primitive (endotestal) seed-coat of Fumarioideae.     

基于优化MaxEnt模型的中国紫堇属植物生境适宜性研究

气候变化正深刻地影响着植物的地理分布格局,预测紫堇属植物的潜在适生区有利于认识气候变化对紫堇属植物分布的影响,对制定紫堇属植物的保护策略具有重要意义。以紫堇属植物作为研究对象,基于优化的MaxEnt模型,对1910个紫堇属植物分布点和22个环境因子进行潜在适生区预测,探讨影响紫堇属植物分布的主要环境因子,并预测其在末次盛冰期（last glacial maximum,LGM）、当代（Current）、未来2021-2040年（2040s）、2041-2060年（2060s）、2061-2080年（2080s）和2081-2100年（2100s）2种温室气体排放浓度场景（SSP126和SSP585）下的潜在适生区的空间分布格局及其质心迁移趋势,最后对其保护现状进行了分析。结果表明：（1）最优化模型参数组合为RM=1.4,FC=LQPT,此时MaxEnt模型的复杂度和过拟合都最低,模型预测精度较高,AUC=0.793;（2）由刀切法贡献率、置换贡献率和单因子响应曲线可知影响紫堇属植物地理分布的主要环境因子为气温年较差（bio7）、气温季节性变动系数（bio4）、年降水量（bio12）、平均气温日较差（bio2）,其中温度是影响紫堇属植物分布的最重要环境因子;（3）当前气候条件下紫堇属植物分布的范围几乎涵盖整个中国,在气候分区上看,从北亚热带、南亚热带、中温带、南温带及高原气候区均有分布。然而,各个时期间紫堇属植物的潜在适生区变化较大,其潜在适生区总体呈现向高原气候区及中温带地区扩张的趋势,且面积不断扩大;随着温室气体浓度的增加,适生区的破碎化逐渐严重。质心迁移结果也表明紫堇属植物在未来的潜在适生区总体呈现向西北移动的趋势;（4）我国东喜马拉雅地区及横断山区为紫堇属植物保护的关键地区,然而该地区自然保护区面积较小且破碎化严重,亟待对该地区的紫堇属植物进行保护,同时也应继续加强西北地区自然保护区的建设。     

Seed morphology ofEuphorbia sectionTithymalopsis (Euphorbiaceae) and related species

Light and scanning microscopies were used to evaluate the sectional boundary of 17 species included by various authors inEuphorbia sectTithymalopsis. Based on seed shape, surface ornamentation, and mucilage formation, five seed morphological types were recognized in North American sectionTithymalopsis and related species. These results did not provide added support for recent treatment of the sectTithymalopsis s.s. However, a close relationship was suggested among species of theTithymalopsis subsectionCorollatae. In addition, including species from subsectionsInnocuae, Ipecacuanhae, andSphaerorhizae within sectTithymalopsis could not be justified, based on seed morphological data.     

Phylogeny and classification ofFumariaceae, with emphasis onDicentra s. l., based on the plastid generps16 intron

The phylogeny ofFumariaceae, as inferred fromrps16 intron sequences, is compared with morphological data, and nrDNA-ITS. The different data sets are largely congruent and indicate that (1)Dicentra and the tribeCorydaleae as hitherto circumscribed are polyphyletic, (2)Lamprocapnos (=Dicentra spectabilis) is sister group to the rest of subfam.Fumarioideae, (3)Ehrendorferia, gen. nov. (=Dicentra chrysantha andD. ochroleuca) is basal in the latter group, (4) the morphologically aberrantIchtyoselmis, gen. nov. (=Dicentra macrantha) groups withDicentra s. str., (5) the genusCysticapnos should be included in the tribeFumarieae, (6)Dactylicapnos (=Dicentra subg.Dactylicapnos) is sister group toCorydalis, (7) the genusCorydalis is monophyletic, and consists of three subgenera:Chremnocapnos, stat. nov.,Sophorocapnos, stat. nov., andCorydalis. The following new combinations are validated:Ehrendorferia chrysantha, E. ochroleuca, Ichtyoselmis macrantha, andLamprocapnos spectabilis. Dedicated to emer.

Variation of pollen and ovule parameters among different ploidy levels ofCorydalis (Fumariaceae)

The size and number of pollen grains and ovules are compared between 20 populations of different ploidy levels in two self-incompatible species ofCorydalis (Fumariaceae), to test the presence of ploidy-related variation in these reproductive characters. In both species, higher ploidy levels are associated with larger pollen grains, ovules and corolla, but the number of pollen grains and ovules are not different between ploidy levels. The investment per flower is consequently larger at higher ploidy levels, but the flower number per individual is lower, suggesting that the mode of partition of the investment for sexual reproduction varies between different ploidy levels. InC. orthoceras, sex allocation estimated by pollen:ovule ratios in number and volume is more female-biased in polyploids than in diploids. In spite of these variations, the characters studied can not be used as indicators of ploidy level due to the large overlaps between the ploidy levels.     

Reexamination of sectional classification in far easternEuphorbia subgenusEsula (Euphorbiaceae) using morphological and phenolic data

Reexamining the classification proposed by Hurusawa, the phylogeny of Far EasternEuphorbia subgenusEsula was analyzed using thirteen morphological and seventeen phenolic compound data. These data were analyzed independently and in combination using PAUP under the assumptions of Fitch parsimony. Ten species, comprised of three sections and five subsections within Far EasternEuphorbia subg.Esula and one outgroup from subg.Chamaesyce, were used as terminal taxa. The phylogenetic results did not support the sectional classifications within subg.Esula proposed by Hurusawa. SectionDecussatae was nested in the paraphyletic sectEsula in all of the analyses, and the relationship of sectHelioscopiae was equivocal among data sets. The disagreement of data sets over the placement ofEuphorbia ebracteolata is probably due to a hybrid origin of the species and missing phenolic data forE. pallasii. A sister-group relationship of the Korean endemicE. fauriei with the widespreadE. pekinensis was strongly supported by the morphological and phenolic data.     

Cylindrocladium angustatum sp. nov., a new leaf spot pathogen ofTillandsia capitata from Florida, U.S.A.

Cylindrocladium angustatum is described as a new species fromTillandsia introduced with plant material into the U.S.A. from Central America. Koch's postulates are established to prove its pathogenicity to this host. The species is compared with and distinguished fromC. heptaseptatum andC. rumohrae based on morphology, cultural characteristics and phylogenetic analysis of sequence data of the beta-tubulin gene.     

Genetic diversity in the orange subfamily Aurantioideae. I. Intraspecies and intragenus genetic variability

Despite the great economic importance of citrus, its phylogeny and taxonomy remain a matter of controversy. Moreover pathogens of increased virulence and dramatic environmental changes are currently spreading or emerging. The objectives of the present paper, measuring genetic variability and studying its pattern of distribution, are crucial steps to optimize sampling strategies in the search of genotypes that tolerate or resist these threatening factors within the huge array of Citrus and Citrus related species. Their intraspecific and intrageneric variability was studied comparatively by means of ten enzymatic systems using eight different measures. The analysis of ten enzymatic systems allowed us to distinguish all the species and all but one artificial hybrid. The species with the lowest genotypic variability are C. myrtifolia, C. deliciosa (willow leaf mandarin), C. paradisi (grapefruit), C. limon (lemon) and C. sinensis (sweet orange), while Severinia buxifolia shows the highest value. A broad spectrum of heterozygosity values was found in the collection. Lemons (C. limon, C. meyeri, C. karna, C. volkameriana), limes (C. aurantifolia, C. limettioides, C. lattifolia) and C. bergamia show a very high percentage of heterozygosity which indicates an origin through interspecific hybridization. Two main factors limit genetic intraspecific variability: apomictic reproduction, where nucellar embryos are much more vigorous than the zygotic ones, and nurserymen selecting against variability in the seedling stage of the rootstocks or in propagating the scion cultivars vegetatively. Additionally, self-pollination appears in some species mainly used as rootstocks which would explain their low heterozygosity values. Genetic differences between species and genera are in general high, which suggests that adaptation might have played an important role during the evolution of the orange subfamily.     

Entyloma cosmi sp. nov. on Cosmos bipinnatus (Compositae)

Entyloma species causing white smut disease of Cosmos species have been studied. Two species can be recognized, Entyloma holwayi on C. caudatus and C. sulphureus from North America, and E. cosmi sp. nov. on C. bipinnatus from Japan and Europe.     

New fungal genera, Tectonidula gen. nov. for Calosphaeria-like fungi with holoblastic-denticulate conidiogenesis and Natantiella gen. nov. for three species segregated from Ceratostomella

Two morphologically similar groups of ascomycetes with globose to subglobose perithecia, elongate necks, unitunicate asci floating freely at maturity, and hyaline ascospores currently placed in Calosphaeria s. lat. and Ceratostomella s. lat., respectively, are studied. The Calosphaeria-like fungi have groups of perithecia growing between cortex and wood, arranged in circular groups with converging necks and piercing the cortex in a common point; the asci with a shallow apical ring and U- to horseshoe-shaped hyaline ascospores are compared with Calosphaeria pulchella, the type species of the genus. Conidiogenesis of the investigated Calosphaeria-like fungi is holoblastic-denticulate; ramichloridium-like and sporothrix-like conidiophores and conidia were formed in vitro. Ascospore and ascus morphology, structure of the ascal apex, ascogenous system, mode of conidiogenesis and the large subunit rRNA sequences of this group differ considerably from C. pulchella and both groups are unrelated. Thus a new genus, Tectonidula, is described with two accepted species, T. hippocrepida and T. fagi; they are separated by ascospore and ascus morphology and holoblastic-denticulate conidiogenesis from the core species of Calosphaeria. The placement of Tectonidula among perithecial ascomycetes is discussed. The relationship of Tectonidula with Barbatosphaeria and two ramichloridium-like hyphomycetous genera Rhodoveronaea and Myrmecridium is investigated. Three species formerly attributed to Ceratostomella are studied. The revision of the herbarium type specimen and fresh material of Ceratostomella ligneola revealed that it is conspecific with Ceratostomella ampullasca and Ceratostomella similis. The LSU phylogeny clearly separated C. ligneola from Ceratostomella s. str. and morphologically similar Lentomitella. On the basis of molecular sequence data and detailed comparison of morphology of asci, ascospores and ascogenous system the genus Natantiella is described for C. ligneola with C. ampullasca and C. similis as its synonyms. Natantiella produced sterile mycelium in vitro.     

Taxonomy and ecology of some ciliates (Protozoa,Ciliophora) of the saprobic system. III. Revision of the genera Colpidium and Dexiostoma,and establishment of a new genus,Paracolpidium nov. gen.

The genera Colpidium Stein, 1860 and Dexiostoma Jankowski, 1967 are revised. Our monographic treatment is based on a morphologic and biometric reinvestigation of the main species of these genera and on an evaluation of data from the literature. Colpidium comprises four species, namely C. colpoda (Losana, 1829), C. singulare Vuxanovici, 1961, C. acuminatum Vuxanovici, 1962, and C. kleini Foissner, 1969. The monotypic genus Dexiostoma contains D. campyla (Stokes, 1886) and is distinguished from Colpidium by a different oral infraciliature and the position and shape of the preoral suture. A new genus, Paracolpidium nov. gen., is suggested for Colpidium truncatum Stokes, 1885 because its oral infraciliature deviates from both Colpidium and Dexiostoma. Contrary to Colpidium and Dexiostoma, the silverline system of Paracolpidium truncatum lacks secondary meridians but shows short projections to the left of the primary meridians indicating a phylogenetic relationship to Tetrahymena.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">Candida patagonica</Emphasis> sp. nov., a new species of yeast from cellar surfaces

A novel anamorphic yeast species belonging to the genus Candida has been isolated from cellar surfaces in North Patagonia. Morphological and physiological observation and phylogenetic analysis were performed. Pseudomycelium was plentifully produced. No sexual reproduction was observed. From sequence analysis of the 26S rDNA D1/D2 region, Candida bituminiphila and Zygoascus hellenicus were the closest species with 40 and 79 bp substitutions, respectively. C. bituminiphila differed physiologically from the novel species in its ability to assimilate sucrose and erythritol, in not fermenting any sugars, in growing without some vitamin compounds, and in growing at 40°C. All these data support the hypothesis that the new yeast, named Candida patagonica, is a novel species related to C. bituminiphila. The type strain is UNCOMA 159.5 (= CECT 12029 = CBS 10443).     

Sero-systematics ofCytisus sect.Trianthocytisus (Fabaceae)

The serological reaction of seed proteins provides evidence for a partly new systematic arrangement ofCytisus sect.Trianthocytisus and ofCytisus s.l. Proposed modifications agree with recent advances in morphological taxonomy. Sect.Trianthocytisus includes only two species,C. villosus andC. aeolicus. Its position is central within the genus, and this fact agrees with the proposed retypification ofCytisus (type species:C. villosus).C. emeriflorus, formerly included in the same section, constitutes the monospecific sect.Emeroides, which is intermediate towards the genusLembotropis. This is serologically isolated and includes onlyL. nigricans. It is confirmed thatC. sessilifolius should be removed from the genusCytisus as a monospecific genus:Cytisophyllum Lang which is closely allied toHesperolaburnum and toPodocytisus, the most primitive genera ofGenisteae.     

荨麻科三新种

该文描述了荨麻科三新种:(1)自中国重庆市发现的荨麻科荨麻属一新种,城口荨麻。此种与异株荨麻有亲缘关系,区别特征为此种的茎被少数刺毛,叶片多为心形,雄、雌花序均不分枝,瘦果在中央稍凹陷。(2)自中国广西发现的荨麻科赤车属一新种,来宾赤车。此种与特产云南东南部的富宁赤车相近缘,与后者的区别在于本种茎的毛开展或向上弯曲,叶片长椭圆形,基部斜楔形,雌花具3~4枚花被片,其中1~2枚较大花被片在背面顶端具一长筒状突起。(3)自缅甸北部发现的荨麻科楼梯草属一新种,克钦楼梯草。此种在体态上与骤尖楼梯草甚为相似,与后者的区别在于本种的每一茎节具正常叶和一退化叶,托叶狭披针状条形和无脉,雌总苞苞片无角状突起,雌小苞片较大,呈楔状长圆形,雌花具一小花被片,以及雌蕊具一宽倒卵球形柱头。     

Four novel yeasts from decaying organic matter: Blastobotrys robertii sp. nov., Candida cretensis sp. nov., Candida scorzettiae sp. nov. and Candida vadensis sp. nov

Four novel yeast species are described, two from decaying mushrooms, viz. Candida cretensis and Candida vadensis, and two from rotten wood, viz. Blastobotrys robertii and Candida scorzettiae. Accession numbers for the CBS and ARS Culture Collections, and GenBank accession numbers for the D1/D2 domains of the large subunit of ribosomal DNA are: B. robertii CBS 10106^T, NRRL Y-27775, DQ839395; C. cretensis CBS 9453^T, NRRL Y-27777, AY4998861 and DQ839393; C. scorzettiae CBS 10107^T, NRRL Y-27665, DQ839394; C. vadensis CBS 9454^T, NRRL Y-27778, AY498863 and DQ839396. The GenBank accession number for the ITS region of C. cretensis is AY498862 and that for C. vadensis is AY498864. C. cretensis was the only species of the four that displayed fermentative activity. All four type strains grew on n-hexadecane. C. scorzettiae is the only one of the new species that assimilates some phenolic compounds, viz. 3-hydroxy derivatives of benzoic, phenylacetic and cinnamic acids, but not the corresponding 4-hydroxy acids. This is indicative of an operative gentisate pathway.     

Genetic diversity in the orange subfamily Aurantioideae. II. Genetic relationships among genera and species

Genetic relationships were studied by means of ten isoenzymatic systems, at the genus and species level, using two distances and four methods of aggregation in a germplasm collection of 198 cultivars and accessions of 54 species belonging to Citrus and 13 related genera. The most consistent results were obtained by the chord distance and the neighbor-joining clustering method. Citrus species were distributed in two main groups: the orange-mandarin group and the lime lemon-citron-pummelo group. The species C. halimii and C. tachibana are not included in these groups. Mandarin species fall into three main subgroups: one includes C. sinensis; the second, C. aurantium, the third, small-fruit species. The citron, the pummelo and the ancient lemon subgroups form a cluster to which the species belonging to subgenus Papeda and the cultivated limes, lemons and bergamots are related. Microcitrus spp, to which Severinia buxifolia and Atalantia ceylanica seem to be related, cluster with the lime lemon-citron-pummelo group while Fortunella is close to the orange-mandarin group. Poncirus trifoliata, the most important species for citrus rootstock improvement is located far from Citrus but connected to it through Fortunella spp. A broad distribution of species has been found that should be taken into account to sample new genotypes in the search of desired characters in order to fully and efficiently use genetic resources for citrus improvement.
