The natural durability of four Argentinean species of Prosopis and one of Acacia was evaluated in laboratory tests, according to European standards, using three brown rot and one white rot fungi. These
tests were complemented by assessing the wood chemical composition. All the species were from moderately slightly durable
to very durable (classes 4–1), and in all cases the heartwood was the most resistant to fungal attack. Chemical extractives
content (organic, aqueous, tannic and phenolic) was higher in the heartwood. However, species durability was not related to
extractive contents nor with wood density. Instead, it is possible that extractives could contribute to natural durability
in different ways, including the effects related to the antioxidant properties of some of them. 相似文献

Acacia caven is a South American species which shows remarkable climate tolerance and ecological adaptability; as such, this species is suitable for colonizing anthropogenically degraded sites. This species is widely distributed, and six varieties have been described based on both morphological traits and molecular markers. Moreover, Aronson (1992) suggests that, for this species, geographical separation could be associated with ecological differentiation. In this study, amplified fragment length polymorphisms were used to study genetic variation within and among 15 populations of A. caven from five eco-regions of Argentina and to investigate (1) whether the varieties are genetically coherent, (2) whether the varieties correspond consistently to a single eco-region, (3) the proportion of the species diversity explained within and among varieties and eco-regions. Eight of the 225 bands appear to be under positive selection. The remaining 217 neutral loci showed a high percentage of polymorphism (99.1%). The estimates of genetic diversity H j were generally high. The F ST (0.315) was highly significant, providing evidence for genetic structure among populations. Hierarchical analysis of molecular variance indicated that variation among eco-regions was 8.2% and highly significant. The higher component of variance was found within populations (67.5%). STRUCTURE analysis suggested that the optimal number of K?=?11. The results showed that, in most cases, geographic separation is associated with ecological differentiation. Since differentiation of A. caven populations studied here in eco-regions was highly significant, sampling should include a large number of trees within populations as well as covering the wide ecological diversity of the species. 相似文献

Prosopis species forests in Argentina are increasingly fragmented in the last years mainly by the deforestation activity without any
reforestation strategy, the establishment of different crop plantations, and natural fires. The consequence of habitat fragmentation
on the genetic potential of Prosopis alba requires a fine-scale analysis of population structure, in particular mating system and pollen dispersal. By means of short
sequences repeats, we analyzed a fragmented population of this species in Santiago del Estero (Argentina). Most genetic variation
was observed among families within zones (65.5%), whereas the lowest proportion corresponded to the differentiation among
zones (2.8%). The fine analysis of structure at family level suggests that this population is complete outcrosser and there
is a low but significant biparental inbreeding. Outcrossing rates differ among mother plants and the proportion of full sibs
within mother plants ranged from 64% for seeds proceeding from the same pod to 10% for seeds from different pods. The average
pollen dispersal distance was estimated to be among 5.36 and 30.92 m by using the KinDist or TwoGener approach. About seven
pollen donors are siring each progeny array and the number of seed trees necessary for seed collection aiming to retain an
effective population size of 100 was estimated in 16–39 individuals depending on the relatedness estimator used. Pollen and
seed dispersal would be limited, what determines the need of conserving short distant patches to avoid the effects of inbreeding
and drift within populations as a consequence of intensive use resource for agriculture. 相似文献

The aims of this study were to evaluate the degree of morphological differentiation between six varieties of Acacia caven and to examine their taxonomic validity in the context of other Argentinean species of the genus. To accomplish these purposes, morphological traits have been analyzed using multivariate methods (non parametric ANOVA, phenetic analysis and principal component analysis) on the varieties of A. caven and other six species of the genus, represented in Argentina. The phenogram obtained showed two principal clusters, one grouping all the species of subg. Acacia and the other grouping the species of subg. Aculeiferum. This result agreed with Vassal's infrageneric classification. However, the results of the principal PCA gathered the seven species here included in three groups, which were consistent with Bentham's infrageneric treatment. The ANOVA method indicated that most of the morphometric characters used were statistically sound for differentiation between varieties of A. caven. Further studies, including more species and characters, must be performed in order to clarify the position of Acacia boliviana and the relationships between A. caven and A. curvifructa. 相似文献

Bayesian clustering as implemented in STRUCTURE or GENELAND software is widely used to form genetic groups of populations or individuals. On the other hand, in order to satisfy the need for less computer-intensive approaches, multivariate analyses are specifically devoted to extracting information from large datasets. In this paper, we report the use of a dataset of AFLP markers belonging to 15 sampling sites of Acacia caven for studying the genetic structure and comparing the consistency of three methods: STRUCTURE, GENELAND and DAPC. Of these methods, DAPC was the fastest one and showed accuracy in inferring the K number of populations (K = 12 using the find.clusters option and K = 15 with a priori information of populations). GENELAND in turn, provides information on the area of membership probabilities for individuals or populations in the space, when coordinates are specified (K = 12). STRUCTURE also inferred the number of K populations and the membership probabilities of individuals based on ancestry, presenting the result K = 11 without prior information of populations and K = 15 using the LOCPRIOR option. Finally, in this work all three methods showed high consistency in estimating the population structure, inferring similar numbers of populations and the membership probabilities of individuals to each group, with a high correlation between each other. 相似文献

In the Atacama Desert from northern Chile (19–24°S), Prosopis (Leguminosae) individuals are restricted to oases that are unevenly distributed and isolated from each other by large stretches of barren landscape constituting an interesting study model as the degree of connectivity between natural populations depends on their dispersal capacity and the barriers imposed by the landscape. Our goal was to assess the genetic diversity and the degree of differentiation among groups of Prosopis individuals of different species from Section Algarobia and putative hybrids (hereafter populations) co‐occurring in these isolated oases from the Atacama Desert and determine whether genetic patterns are associated with dispersal barriers. Thirteen populations were sampled from oases located on three hydrographic basins (Pampa del Tamarugal, Rio Loa, and Salar de Atacama; northern, central, and southern basins, respectively). Individuals genotyped by eight SSRs show high levels of genetic diversity (H O = 0.61, A r = 3.5) and low but significant genetic differentiation among populations (F ST = 0.128, F ST‐ENA = 0.129, D JOST = 0.238). The AMOVA indicates that most of the variation occurs within individuals (79%) and from the variance among individuals (21%); almost, the same variation can be found between basins and between populations within basins. Differentiation and structure results were not associated with the basins, retrieving up to four genetic clusters and certain admixture in the central populations. Pairwise differentiation comparisons among populations showed inconsistencies considering their distribution throughout the basins. Genetic and geographic distances were significantly correlated at global and within the basins considered (p < .02), but low correlation indices were obtained (r < .37). These results are discussed in relation to the fragmented landscape, considering both natural and non‐natural (humans) dispersal agents that may be moving Prosopis in the Atacama Desert. 相似文献

One of the problems in marketing the wood of Prosopis and Acacia is the lack of standardization of its qualities. The aim of this paper was to obtain a preliminary detection of some properties of the wood of four species of the genus Prosopis and one species from Acacia grown in Argentina. To accomplish this objective, the content of extractives and some physical and mechanical characteristics were analyzed.The density ρ12 of all the species indicates that these woods range from heavy to very heavy (?0.69 g/cm3). The total volumetric shrinkage values are low, less than 10%, for all species. The parallel compression strength and the shear strength for all the species indicate a very resistant wood (?46.93 MPa and ?18.35 MPa, respectively). Brinell hardness was higher than 5 kg/mm2 in all cases. The species with less content of extractives is P. ruscifolia (approximately 9% of anhydrous mass) whereas A. aroma was the one with the greatest content (approximately 25% of anhydrous mass in the heartwood). 相似文献
