PhytoKeys 11: 1–37. doi: 10.3897/phytokeys.11.2955 Abstract The Asiatic species of Oleandra (Oleandraceae) are revised. We reduce a large number of species to O. neriiformis and O. sibbaldii, we provide a revised circumscription of O. cumingii and O. undulata and we establish the identity of O. vulpina. In total, we recognize 9 species, with full synonymy, descriptions and distribution maps. A list of identifications is appended. Keywords Oleandra, systematics Introduction Virtually all authors who have dealt with the genus Oleandra Cav. have commented on its distinctness or naturalness. The shrubby growth form, particularly distinct in O. neriiformis Cav., prompted Cavanilles (1799; 1802) not only to derive the genus name, but also the species name from Nerium oleander L. (Apocynaceae). From this it should be clear that he saw the aerial stems of Oleandra neriiformis, of which the forms with distinctly whorled fronds are indeed strongly reminiscent of branches of Nerium olean- der.

The species studied were those used in a published phylogenetic analysis based on chloroplast DNA regions. Four additional Polypodiaceae species were examined for comparative purposes. We used scanning electron microscopy to image 580 specimens of spores from 29 species of the 48 recognised taxa. Four discrete and ten continuous characters were scored for each species and optimised on to the previously published molecular tree. Canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) showed that verrucae width/verrucae length and verrucae width/spore length index and outline were the most important morphological characters. The first two axes explain, respectively, 56.3% and 20.5% of the total variance. Regular depressed and irregular prominent verrucae were present in derived species. However, the morphology does not support any molecular clades. According to our analyses, the evolutionary pathway of the ornamentation of the spores is represented by depressed irregularly verrucae to folded perispore to depressed regular verrucae to irregularly prominent verrucae. Keywords: character evolution, ferns, eupolypods I, canonical correspondence analysis useful in phylogenetic analyses of several other Serpocaulon is a fern genus restricted to the tropics groups of ferns (Wagner 1974; Pryer et al.

Here we study for the first time the phylogenetic relationships of the associated genera Hypoderris (endemic to the Caribbean), Cionidium (endemic to New Caledonia) and Pseudotectaria (endemic to Madagascar and Comoros) using DNA sequence data. Based on a broad sampling of 72 species of eupolypods I (= Polypodiaceae sensu lato) and three plastid DNA regions (atpA, rbcL and the trnL-F intergenic spacer) we were able to place the three previously unsampled genera.

  • Growth of Fern Gametophytes After 20 Years of Storage in Liquid Nitrogen
    FERN GAZ. 20(8): 337-346. 2018 337 GROWTH OF FERN GAMETOPHYTES AFTER 20 YEARS OF STORAGE IN LIQUID NITROGEN V. C. Pence Center for Conservation and Research of Endangered Wildlife (CREW) Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden, 3400 Vine Street, Cincinnati, OH 45220, USA email: [email protected] Key words: cryopreservation, ex situ conservation, gametophyte; in vitro; long-term storage ABSTRACT In vitro grown gametophytes of six species of ferns, which had been cryopreserved using the encapsulation dehydration procedure, were evaluated for survival after 20 yrs of storage in liquid nitrogen. Tissues were rewarmed and transferred to a recovery medium with the same methods originally used to test pre-storage viability. All six species resumed growth. Post-storage viability was not consistently higher or lower than pre-storage viability of LN exposed tissues, likely reflecting the small sample sizes. However, these results demonstrate that long-term storage in liquid nitrogen is a viable option for preserving gametophytes of at least some fern species and could be utilized as an additional tool for preserving valuable gametophyte collections and for the ex situ conservation of fern biodiversity. INTRODUCTION For many species of ferns, gametophyte tissues have proven to be highly adaptable to growth in vitro (Table 1) . Most of these have been initiated through the aseptic germination of spores, although the aseptic germination of gemmae has also been demonstrated (Raine & Sheffield, 1997). As in vitro cultures, gametophytes can provide tissues for research and for propagation, both for ornamental ferns as well as for ferns of conservation concern. The ex situ conservation of ferns has traditionally relied on living collections and spore banks (Ballesteros, 2011).

  • Davallia Denticulata L 1101000110101001210 D
    J EDINBURGH UNIVERSITY LIBRARY Shelf Mark __l UniversityH Edinburgh 30150 024493592 Systematic Study on Davalliaceae in Peninsular Malaysia Haja Maideen Kader Maideen Doctor of Philosophy The University of Edinburgh Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh 2008 Abstract Davalliaceae is a fern family established by A. B. Frank in 1877, based on the genus Davallia. It contains about 150 species in 8-12 genera and is restricted to the Old World tropics and subtropics. They are mostly epiphytes with long creeping fleshy rhizomes covered with peltate scales. In Peninsular Malaysia, the Davallioid ferns belong to Davallia Sm., Humata Cav., Leucostegia C. Presl and Araiostegia Copel. (Parris & Latiff, 1997). This study used morphological, cytological and molecular (three chloroplast regions) data in an attempt to classify Davalliaceae, especially in Peninsular Malaysia. The results presented in this thesis showed moderate to strong support for the paraphyly of genera in Davalliaceae, especially in Peninsular Malaysia. The results were incongruent with the latest classification based on morphology (Nooteboom, 1998) but congruent with a global study based on molecular data. The phylogeny showed that Leucostegia doest not belong to Davalliaceae. Four major clades were recognised in Davalliaceae, namely the Araiostegia Clade (AC); Davallia with two clades: Davallia Clade I (denticulata clade and dimorpha-divaricata clade), Davallia Clade II (scyphularia-solida clade and trichomanoides clade) and the Humata clade (HC). Maximum parsimony and Bayesian analyses of rps4 + rps4-trnS IGS and combined three regions produced congruent topologies, but the topologies ofrbcL and trnL-F region produced only slight differences. The expanded rbcL data also showed that all species were fully resolved without having a separated/regional clade.

  • Biogeographical Patterns of Species Richness, Range Size And
    Biogeographical patterns of species richness, range size and phylogenetic diversity of ferns along elevational-latitudinal gradients in the tropics and its transition zone Kumulative Dissertation zur Erlangung als Doktorgrades der Naturwissenschaften (Dr.rer.nat.) dem Fachbereich Geographie der Philipps-Universität Marburg vorgelegt von Adriana Carolina Hernández Rojas aus Xalapa, Veracruz, Mexiko Marburg/Lahn, September 2020 Vom Fachbereich Geographie der Philipps-Universität Marburg als Dissertation am 10.09.2020 angenommen. Erstgutachter: Prof. Dr. Georg Miehe (Marburg) Zweitgutachterin: Prof. Dr. Maaike Bader (Marburg) Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 27.10.2020 “An overwhelming body of evidence supports the conclusion that every organism alive today and all those who have ever lived are members of a shared heritage that extends back to the origin of life 3.8 billion years ago”. This sentence is an invitation to reflect about our non- independence as a living beins. We are part of something bigger! "Eine überwältigende Anzahl von Beweisen stützt die Schlussfolgerung, dass jeder heute lebende Organismus und alle, die jemals gelebt haben, Mitglieder eines gemeinsamen Erbes sind, das bis zum Ursprung des Lebens vor 3,8 Milliarden Jahren zurückreicht." Dieser Satz ist eine Einladung, über unsere Nichtunabhängigkeit als Lebende Wesen zu reflektieren. Wir sind Teil von etwas Größerem! PREFACE All doors were opened to start this travel, beginning for the many magical pristine forest of Ecuador, Sierra de Juárez Oaxaca and los Tuxtlas in Veracruz, some of the most biodiverse zones in the planet, were I had the honor to put my feet, contemplate their beauty and perfection and work in their mystical forest. It was a dream into reality! The collaboration with the German counterpart started at the beginning of my academic career and I never imagine that this will be continued to bring this research that summarizes the efforts of many researchers that worked hardly in the overwhelming and incredible biodiverse tropics.
