中国杜鹃花科一新记录属及铁线莲属一新种

报道杜鹃花科仙女越橘属（Andromeda）在中国东北吉林省的新分布记录,该属为单型属,广布于北美北部、欧洲北部和东亚北部,但以前中国境内未有记录。本文提供了本属的形态描述和植物野外生境照片。另外,还描述了产自云南西双版纳的铁线莲属一新种易武铁线莲Clematispeii,并绘图。该新种隶属于威灵仙组（sect．Clematis）并与C．chingii近缘,不同点在于,该新种为三出复叶,小叶片近全缘,花药较长（约3mm）,且药隔显著凸出,并讨论了该新种与sect．Clematis中其它具有j出复叶的种类在形态上的区别。     

用叶绿体ndhF和核核糖体ITS序列推断李属(蔷薇科)的系统发育

Sequences of the chloroplast ndhF gene and the nuclear ribosomal ITS regions are employed to reconstruct the phylogeny of Prunus (Rosaceae), and evaluate the classification schemes of this genus. The two data sets are congruent in that the genera Prunus s.l. and Maddenia form a monophyletic group, with Maddenia nested within Prunus. However, the ndhF data set is incongruent with the ITS data supporting two major groups within Prunus one consisting of subgenera Laurocerasus (including Pygeum) and Padus as well as the genus Maddenia and another of subgenera Amygdalus, Cerasus, and Prunus. The ITS data, on the other hand, support a clade composed of subgenera Amygdalus and Prunus and Prunus sect. Microcerasus in addition to a paraphyletic grade of subgenera Laurocerasus and Padus (and the genus Maddenia) taxa. In general, the subgeneric classifications of Prunus s.l. are not supported. The ITS and ndhF phylogenies differ mainly in interspecific relationships and the relative position of the Padus/Laurocerasus group. Both ITS and ndhF data sets suggest that the formerly recognized genus Pygeum is polyphyletic and that the distinction of the subgenera Padus and Laurocerasus is not supported. The biogeographic interactions of the temperate and tropical members in the Padus/Laurocera- sus/Maddenia alliance including Pygeum are shown to be highly dynamic and complex.
