E-mail [email protected] Received: 30 July 2015 Returned for revision: 19 August 2015 Accepted: 25 September 2015 Published electronically: 20 November 2015 Background Various groups of flowering plants reveal profound (‘saltational’) changes of their bauplans (archi- tectural rules) as compared with related taxa. These plants are known as morphological misfits that appear as rather Downloaded from large morphological deviations from the norm. Some of them emerged as morphological key innovations (perhaps ‘hopeful monsters’) that gave rise to new evolutionary lines of organisms, based on (major) genetic changes. Scope This pictorial report places emphasis on released bauplans as typical for bladderworts (Utricularia,approx. 230 secies, Lentibulariaceae) and river-weeds (Podostemaceae, three subfamilies, approx. 54 genera, approx. 310 species). Bladderworts (Utricularia) are carnivorous, possessing sucking traps. They live as submerged aquatics (except for their flowers), as humid terrestrials or as epiphytes. Most Podostemaceae are restricted to rocks in tropi- http://aob.oxfordjournals.org/ cal river-rapids and waterfalls. They survive as submerged haptophytes in these extreme habitats during the rainy season, emerging with their flowers afterwards. The recent scientific progress in developmental biology and evolu- tionary history of both Lentibulariaceae and Podostemaceae is summarized.

  • Brief Information About the Species Status of Utricularia Cornigera Studnicˇka
    Technical Refereed Contribution Brief information about the species status of Utricularia cornigera Studnicˇka Miloslav studnicˇka • Liberec Botanic Gardens • Purkynˇova 630/1 • CZ-460 01 Liberec • Czech Republic • [email protected] Keywords: Utricularia cornigera, hybrid, heterosis, apomixis Abstract: The carnivorous plant Utricularia cornigera Studnicˇka was described in 2009, but author- ities of the International Carnivorous Plant Society published an opinion that it is not a true species, but only a natural hybrid of U. reniformis and U. nelumbifolia. The role of heterosis is discussed, because U. cornigera is much larger than both theoretical parents. Seedlings, the very characteristic feature of bladderworts (Utricularia), are different in all the bladderworts described, that is, in the named species and in artificial hybrids of U. nelumbifolia and U. reniformis. No support for the hypothesis supposing a hybrid origin of U. cornigera was found. Introduction Recently a hypothesis appeared that Utricularia cornigera Studnicˇ ka could be a hybrid of U. nelum- bifolia Gardn. × U. reniformis St.Hil. (Schlauer 2011; Fleischmann 2012). Consequentially, the new species was rejected from the Carnivorous Plant Database (Schlauer 2011). Nevertheless it was accepted in the International Plant Name Index (IPNI 2005). This article presents the results of new experiments with artificial crossings of both theoretical parents proposed by the authors. The manner of germination and specifically the appearance of the seedlings are crucial phenomena in the life strategy of bladderworts. In the Utricularia species from the section Iperua there are two different ways of germination: either by floating seedlings (e.g. U. cornigera, U. nelumbifolia), or by terrestrial seedlings (e.g.

Bot., Košice, 21: 37-43, 2011 THAISZIA http://www.bz.upjs.sk/thaiszia JOURNAL OF BOTANY Surprising phenomena in the life strategy of Utricularia cornigera in Brazil MILOSLAV STUDNI ČKA Botanic Gardens Liberec, Purkynova 630/1, CZ-460 01 Liberec; [email protected] Studni čka M. (2011): Surprising phenomena in the life strategy of Utricularia cornigera in Brazil. – Thaiszia – J. Bot. 21: 37-43. – ISSN 1210-0420. Abstract: The symbiotic relationships of the carnivorous plant Utricularia cornigera Studni čka are documented and discussed, paying attention to the morphology of its seedlings. The life strategy of this bladderwort is rather different in subalpine plant communities and in alpine communities according to research in Serra dos Orgãos in SE Brazil. The life strategy of Utricularia reniformis is compared according to observations made in similar habitats in Serra da Mantiqueira. Keywords: symbiosis, life strategy, Utricularia , Eryngium , Vriesea . Introduction Only three of the numerous non-aquatic (technically emerged) bladderworts have star-shaped seedlings which function as floats. These South American species are known as plants growing obligatorily ( Utricularia nelumbifolia Gardn.) or occasionally ( U. cornigera Studni čka and U. humboldtii Rob. Schomb.) within phytotelmata in the leaf axils of certain petrophilous bromeliads (TAYLOR 1989). In a previous paper I clarified that U. cornigera had been mistaken for U. reniformis A.St.-Hil. (STUDNI ČKA 2009). These species are different, amongst other things in their absolutely distinct seedlings: The true U. reniformis never has star-shaped floating seedlings. From this we can assume that only U. cornigera , U. humboldtii and U. nelumbifolia are capable of germinating within phytotelmata, while U.

  • Tissue Culture Applied to Carnivorous Species
    Scientia Agraria Paranaensis – Sci. Agrar. Parana. ISSN: 1983-1471 – Online DOI: https://doi.org/10.18188/sap.v19i4.22193 TISSUE CULTURE APPLIED TO CARNIVOROUS SPECIES Mariana Maestracci Macedo Caldeira1, José Victor Maurício de Jesus1, Hemelyn Soares Magalhães1, Maria Antônia Santos de Carvalho1, Monielly Soares Andrade1, Claudineia Ferreira Nunes1* SAP 22193 Received: 17/04/2019 Accepted: 02/05/2020 Sci. Agrar. Parana., Marechal Cândido Rondon, v. 19, n. 4, oct./dec., p. 312-320, 2020 ABSTRACT - The purpose of the review is to comment on available data on the application of plant tissue culture to carnivorous plants. Thus, the review encompassed publications from 1979 to 2017 along in vitro germination studies and micropropagation techniques, such as somatic embryogenesis and organogenesis, which emphasized the responses of plant materials to the stimuli offered during in vitro culture. Tissue culture in carnivorous plants is presented as a tool to promote the increase of the population of these plants either for scientific and commercial purposes or for the conservation and reintroduction in their natural habitat, in order to ensure a sustainable exploitation of this nutritional pattern of plants. In general terms, the studies carried out were limited to the following aspects: cultivation technique, explant source, exogenously applied substances and culture medium. The review also revealed the absence of defined protocols for in vitro multiplication of large-scale carnivorous plants.

  • 2018 INTEGRATED REPORT Volume 1
    2018 INTEGRATED REPORT VOLUME 1 Goals can only be achieved if efforts and courage are driven by purpose and direction Integrated Report 2017/18 The South African National Roads Agency SOC Limited Reg no: 1998/009584/30 THE SOUTH AFRICAN NATIONAL ROADS AGENCY SOC LIMITED The South African National Roads Agency SOC Limited Integrated Report 2017/18 About the Integrated Report The 2018 Integrated Report of the South African National Roads Agency (SANRAL) covers the period 1 April 2017 to 31 March 2018 and describes how the agency gave effect to its statutory mandate during this period. The report is available in printed and electronic formats and is presented in two volumes: • Volume 1: Integrated Report is a narrative on major development during the year combined with key statistics that indicate value generated in various ways. • Volume 2: Annual Financial Statements contains the sections on corporate governance and delivery against key performance indicators, in addition to the financial statements. 2018 is the second year in which SANRAL has adopted the practice of integrated reporting, having previously been guided solely by the approach adopted in terms of the Public Finance Management Act (PFMA). The agency has attempted to demonstrate the varied dimensions of its work and indicate how they are strategically coherent. It has continued to comply with the reporting requirements of the PFMA while incorporating major principles of integrated reporting. This new approach is supported by the adoption of an integrated planning framework in SANRAL’s new strategy, Horizon 2030. In selecting qualitative and quantitative information for the report, the agency has been guided by Horizon 2030 and the principles of disclosure and materiality.

  • Second Brief Piece of Information About the Species Status of Utricularia Cornigera Studnicˇka
    Technical Refereed Contribution Second brief piece of information about the species status of Utricularia cornigera Studnicˇka Miloslav Studnicˇka • Liberec Botanic Gardens • Purkynˇova 630/1 • CZ-460 01 • Liberec • Czech Republic • [email protected] Keywords: Utricularia cornigera, bladderwort, hybrids, bladders, traps. Abstract: Hybrids of Utricularia nelumbifolia × U. reniformis (and vice versa) were raised, and the bladders of adult individuals taken out of the soil were observed. With their long antennae they re- semble their parents, yet they differ noticeably from the identically situated bladders of U. cornigera that has characteristic short antennae. Therefore, the morphology of the bladders does not support the hypothesis of a hybrid origin of U. cornigera. Introduction The seedlings from the artificial cross-breeding of Utricularia reniformis × U. nelumbifolia (and vice versa) documented in CPN 2 years ago (Studnicˇka 2013) have become adult plants, and thus it was possible to document the traps of the hybrids. In this study, a comparison is made with both the parental species and with U. cornigera, for it is a species related to both cross-bred species. The species U. cornigera and U. reniformis are similar to each other with their kidney-shaped leaves. The species U. cornigera and U. nelumbifolia have symbiotic relationships to host rosette-forming plants (Studnicˇka 2011). All the three species are endemic to south-eastern Brazil. Material and Methods The hybrids described in the previous brief information (Studnicˇka 2013) were investigated. These plants have been raised and continue to be kept in the Liberec Botanic Garden. Stolons with bladders were removed from the soil and placed into a small bowl with water.
