AJB Primer Notes & Protocols in the Plant Sciences D EVELOPMENT OF POLYMORPHIC MICROSATELLITE MARKERS FOR I NCARVILLEA SINENSIS (BIGNONIACEAE) 1 Hai-Yan Yu, Jing-Gao, Yi-Bo Luo, and Wei-Ning Bai 2 State Key Laboratory of Systematic and Evolutionary Botany, Institute of Botany,Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100093, China • Premise of the study : Microsatellite markers were developed for Incarvillea sinensis var. sinensis (Bignoniaceae), an annual herb endemic to Inner Mongolia, to study the degree to which delayed self-fertilization is favored. • Methods and Results : Eight polymorphic primer sets were isolated and characterized in two Inner Mongolia populations of I. sinensis var. sinensis with a relatively simple and fast subcloning method. Numbers of alleles per locus ranged from 2 to 7, with observed and expected heterozygosities ranging from 0 to 0.261 and from 0 to 0.778, respectively. • Conclusions : These markers will be useful for future studies of self-fertilization adaptability in I. sinensis var. sinensis. Key words: Incarvillea sinensis; microsatellite; polymorphism; self-fertilization; subcloning. The evolution of self-fertilization and the conditions METHODS AND RESULTS under which it is favored are major subjects in the evolution and ecology of reproduction ( Stebbins, 1974 ; Barrett, 2003 ; Total genomic DNA of leaves sampled from Mu Us Sand land in Inner Goodwillie et al., 2005 ).

Hodkinson School of Natural Sciences Department of Botany Trinity College University of Dublin, Ireland I Declaration I hereby declare that the contents of this thesis are entirely my own work (except where otherwise stated) and that it has not been previously submitted as an exercise for a degree to this or any other university. I agree that library of the University of Dublin, Trinity College may lend or copy this thesis subject to the source being acknowledged. _______________________ Atchara Teerawatananon II Abstract This thesis has provided a comprehensive taxonomic account of tribe Arundinelleae, and subtribes Chionachninae, Dimeriinae and Germainiinae of the tribe Andropogoneae in Thailand. Complete floristic treatments of these taxa have been completed for the Flora of Thailand project. Keys to genera and species, species descriptions, synonyms, typifications, illustrations, distribution maps and lists of specimens examined, are also presented. Fourteen species and three genera of tribe Arundinelleae, three species and two genera of subtribe Chionachninae, seven species of subtribe Dimeriinae, and twelve species and two genera of Germainiinae, were recorded in Thailand, of which Garnotia ciliata and Jansenella griffithiana were recorded for the first time for Thailand. Three endemic grasses, Arundinella kerrii, A. kokutensis and Dimeria kerrii were described as new species to science. Phylogenetic relationships among major subfamilies in Poaceae and among major tribes within Panicoideae were evaluated using parsimony analysis of plastid DNA regions, trnL-F and atpB- rbcL, and a nuclear ribosomal DNA region, ITS. -

JAROLÍMEK A b s t r a c t : New information on synanthropic vegetation at various man- influenced habitats in North Korea is given. Based on 70 phytocoenological relevés authors briefly characterized floristic composition and ecology of black locust forest, Lycium chinense-community, anthropogenous grasslands, wetland communities along riverbanks, and weed communities of crops. Similar communities from South Korea and Japan are compared. Penetration of some synanthropic species into various communities is documented and discussed. K e y w o r d s : vegetation classification, weed communities, man-depending vegetation, Robinia pseudo-acacia communities. Introduction Man-influenced vegetation of Korean Peninsula and Japan was studied only marginally in comparison with forest vegetation. More frequent are papers dealing with rice field vegetation (MIYAWAKI 1960, 1980-1989, SONG 1991, 1997, KOLBEK et al. 1996). Less frequent are studies aimed to vegetation of soya been fields (DOSTÁLEK et al. 1990), ruderal vegetation (MUCINA et al. 1991, KOLBEK et SÁDLO 1996, SÁDLO et KOLBEK 1997), vegetation of walls (KOLBEK et VALACHOVIČ 1996), artificial grasslands (ŠRŮTEK et KOLBEK 1992, BLAŽKOVÁ 1993), banks of rivers and basins (JAROLÍMEK et al. 1991, SONG et SONG 1996, SONG 2001, CHOUNG et LEE 2001), and water basins (KOLBEK et DOSTÁLEK 1996). -
