(Linaria Vulgaris) and Dalmatian Toadflax (Linaria DISSERTATION VIABILITY AND INVASIVE POTENTIAL OF HYBRIDS BETWEEN YELLOW TOADFLAX (LINARIA VULGARIS) AND DALMATIAN TOADFLAX (LINARIA DALMATICA) Submitted by Marie F.S. Turner Department of Soil and Crop Sciences In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Fall 2012 Doctoral Committee: Advisor: Sarah Ward Christopher Richards David Steingraeber George Beck Sharlene Sing Copyright by Marie Frances Sundem Turner 2012 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT VIABILITY AND INVASIVE POTENTIAL OF HYBRIDS BETWEEN YELLOW TOADFLAX (LINARIA VULGARIS) AND DALMATIAN TOADFLAX (LINARIA DALMATICA) Although outcomes of hybridization are highly variable, it is now considered to play an important role in evolution, speciation, and invasion. Hybridization has recently been confirmed between populations of yellow (or common) toadflax (Linaria vulgaris) and Dalmatian toadflax (Linaria dalmatica) in the Rocky Mountain region of the United States. The presence of hybrid toadflax populations on public lands is of concern, as both parents are aggressive invaders already listed as noxious weeds in multiple western states. A common garden experiment was designed to measure differences in quantitative (shoot length, biomass, flowering stems, seed capsule production) phenological (time of emergence, first flowering and seed maturity) and ecophysiological (photosynthesis, transpiration and water use efficiency (WUE)) traits for yellow and Dalmatian toadflax, F1 and BC1 hybrids, as well as natural field-collected hybrids from two sites. Genotypes were cloned to produce true replicates and the entire common garden was also replicated at two locations (Colorado and Montana); physiological data were collected only in Colorado. All genotypes grew larger and were more reproductively active in Colorado than in Montana, and hybrids outperformed parent taxa across vegetative and reproductive traits indicating heterosis. Hybrids also emerged earlier, but did not flower or set seed sooner than parent taxa, and all genotypes set seed more quickly in Montana than in Colorado indicating a strong environmental influence on this trait. There were indications that for some traits, yellow ii toadflax alleles conferred a relative advantage in Montana and Dalmatian toadflax alleles conferred a similar advantage in Colorado. Natural hybrids collected from Montana had higher rates of overall germination than any other class, suggesting selection for transgressive germination; they also emerged earlier in the Montana common garden suggesting possible local adaptation. Aside from these indications of GxE , general patterns of genotypic class performance remained relatively consistent across sites. Ecophysiological patterns were intermediate: yellow toadflax had the highest rates of photosynthesis and WUE; Dalmatian toadflax had the lowest rates of these two metrics and hybrid rates were distributed between them. Plants with higher rates of photosynthesis and transpiration reached phenological stages earlier than those with lower rates. For natural hybrids, the direction of the correlation between ecophysiological traits and quantitative and phenological traits changed depending on when the physiological data was collected. Overall, results indicate most toadflax hybrids may have increased fitness relative to their parents as well as multiple phenotypic attributes which may enable them to expand and invade. However, which of these specific genotypes become invasive will also depend on the direction of crossing and location at which hybridization occurs. Given the observed heterosis, transgressive trait expression, a lack of other apparent phenotypic shortcomings and the potential impacts of hybridization on current mechanisms of control, known hybridization sites, as well as other locations where yellow and Dalmatian toadflax are co-invading should be prioritized for management. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT .................................................................................................................................... ii Chapter One: Literature Review ................................................................................................. 1 Ecology and Genetics of Invasive Species:................................................................................. 1 Pattern: What does an invasive species look like? .................................................................. 2 Process: How do Genetics Affect Invasion? .......................................................................... 10 The Significance of Hybridization in Evolution and Invasion:................................................. 12 History of Research and Theory:........................................................................................... 12 Stabilizing the Effects of Hybridization: ................................................................................ 15 Hybridization and Responses of the Genome: ....................................................................... 16 Hybridization and Responses of the Phenotype: ................................................................... 19 Hybridization and Responses of the Population: .................................................................. 24 Linaria: ...................................................................................................................................... 29 Taxonomy: ............................................................................................................................. 29 Yellow Toadflax (Linaria vulgaris (Mill.): ............................................................................ 30 Dalmatian Toadflax (Linaria dalmatica (L.)

  • PLANT LIST for POLLINATORS Part 1 – a Concise List of Suggested Garden Plants That Are Attractive to Pollinating Insects
    THE ACTION PLAN FOR POLLINATORS SUGGESTED PLANT LIST FOR POLLINATORS Part 1 – A concise list of suggested garden plants that are attractive to pollinating insects This is a list of suggested garden plants. We have only selected flowers which are garden- worthy, easily obtainable, well-known, and widely acknowledged as being attractive to pollinating insects. In some case we have given extra comments about garden- worthiness. This is intended as a clear and concise short list to help gardeners; it is not intended to be comprehensive and we have avoided suggesting plants which are difficult to grow or obtain, or whose benefit to pollinators is still a matter for debate. We have omitted several plants that are considered to have invasive potential, and have qualified some others on the list with comments advising readers how to avoid invasive forms. PLANT ANGELICA (Angelica species). Attractive to a range of insects, especially hoverflies and solitary bees. AUBRETIA (Aubrieta deltoides hybrids). An important early nectar for insects coming out of hibernation. BELLFLOWER (Campanula species and cultivars). Forage for bumblebees and some solitary bees. BETONY (Stachys officinalis). Attractive to bumblebees. Butterfly Conversation’s Awarded the Royal Horticultural Top Butterflys Society’s ‘Award of Garden Nectar Plants. Merit’. PLANT BIRD’S FOOT TREFOIL (Lotus corniculatus). Larval food plant for Common Blue, Dingy Skipper and several moths. Also an important pollen source for bumblebees. Can be grown in gravel or planted in a lawn that is mowed with blades set high during the flowering period. BOWLES’ WALLFLOWER (Erysimum Bowles Mauve). Mauve perennial wallflower, long season nectar for butterflies, moths and many bee species.

  • Floristic Quality Assessment Report
    FLORISTIC QUALITY ASSESSMENT IN INDIANA: THE CONCEPT, USE, AND DEVELOPMENT OF COEFFICIENTS OF CONSERVATISM Tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) the State tree of Indiana June 2004 Final Report for ARN A305-4-53 EPA Wetland Program Development Grant CD975586-01 Prepared by: Paul E. Rothrock, Ph.D. Taylor University Upland, IN 46989-1001 Introduction Since the early nineteenth century the Indiana landscape has undergone a massive transformation (Jackson 1997). In the pre-settlement period, Indiana was an almost unbroken blanket of forests, prairies, and wetlands. Much of the land was cleared, plowed, or drained for lumber, the raising of crops, and a range of urban and industrial activities. Indiana’s native biota is now restricted to relatively small and often isolated tracts across the State. This fragmentation and reduction of the State’s biological diversity has challenged Hoosiers to look carefully at how to monitor further changes within our remnant natural communities and how to effectively conserve and even restore many of these valuable places within our State. To meet this monitoring, conservation, and restoration challenge, one needs to develop a variety of appropriate analytical tools. Ideally these techniques should be simple to learn and apply, give consistent results between different observers, and be repeatable. Floristic Assessment, which includes metrics such as the Floristic Quality Index (FQI) and Mean C values, has gained wide acceptance among environmental scientists and decision-makers, land stewards, and restoration ecologists in Indiana’s neighboring states and regions: Illinois (Taft et al. 1997), Michigan (Herman et al. 1996), Missouri (Ladd 1996), and Wisconsin (Bernthal 2003) as well as northern Ohio (Andreas 1993) and southern Ontario (Oldham et al.
