This study investigates the comparative floral development of 15 species to understand the basis for evolutionary changes in the perianth, Downloaded from androecium and carpels and to provide additional characters for phylogenetic investigation. † Methods Floral ontogeny of 15 species from 12 genera is examined and described using scanning electron microscopy. † Key Results Initiation of the three perianth whorls is either helical or unidirectional. Merism is mostly trimer- ous, occasionally tetramerous and the members of the inner perianth whorl may be missing or are in double pos- ition. The androecium and the gynoecium were found to be variable in organ numbers (from highly polymerous http://aob.oxfordjournals.org/ to a fixed number, six in the androecium and one or two in the gynoecium). Initiation of the androecium starts invariably with three pairs of stamen primordia along the sides of the hexagonal floral apex. Although inner sta- minodes were not observed, they were reported in other genera and other families of Magnoliales, except Magnoliaceae and Myristicaceae.

    IAWA Journal, Vol. 27 (2), 2006: 129–136 WOOD ANATOMY OF CRAIGIA (MALVALES) FROM SOUTHEASTERN YUNNAN, CHINA Steven R. Manchester1, Zhiduan Chen2 and Zhekun Zhou3 SUMMARY Wood anatomy of Craigia W.W. Sm. & W.E. Evans (Malvaceae s.l.), a tree endemic to China and Vietnam, is described in order to provide new characters for assessing its affinities relative to other malvalean genera. Craigia has very low-density wood, with abundant diffuse-in-aggre- gate axial parenchyma and tile cells of the Pterospermum type in the multiseriate rays. Although Craigia is distinct from Tilia by the pres- ence of tile cells, they share the feature of helically thickened vessels – supportive of the sister group status suggested for these two genera by other morphological characters and preliminary molecular data. Although Craigia is well represented in the fossil record based on fruits, we were unable to locate fossil woods corresponding in anatomy to that of the extant genus. Key words: Craigia, Tilia, Malvaceae, wood anatomy, tile cells. INTRODUCTION The genus Craigia is endemic to eastern Asia today, with two species in southern China, one of which also extends into northern Vietnam and southeastern Tibet. The genus was initially placed in Sterculiaceae (Smith & Evans 1921; Hsue 1975), then Tiliaceae (Ren 1989; Ying et al. 1993), and more recently in the broadly circumscribed Malvaceae s.l. (including Sterculiaceae, Tiliaceae, and Bombacaceae) (Judd & Manchester 1997; Alverson et al. 1999; Kubitzki & Bayer 2003). Similarities in pollen morphology and staminodes (Judd & Manchester 1997), and chloroplast gene sequence data (Alverson et al. 1999) have suggested a sister relationship to Tilia.

  • LEAF ARCHITECTURE of SELECTED SPECIES of MALVACEAE Sensu APG and ITS TAXONOMIC SIGNIFICANCE
    Philippine Journal of Systematic Biology Vol. IV (June 2010) LEAF ARCHITECTURE OF SELECTED SPECIES OF MALVACEAE sensu APG AND ITS TAXONOMIC SIGNIFICANCE ALLEN ANTHONY P. LARAÑO, AND INOCENCIO E. BUOT JR. Institute of Biological Sciences, University of the Philippines Los Baños ABSTRACT The leaf architecture of Malvaceae sensu APG was examined and characterized to determine if it can be used in classification of the family and the identification of its species. Forty species were observed, measured and described. A dichotomous key was constructed based solely on leaf architecture characters. The dichotomous key indicated that leaf architecture characters can be used in distinguishing some species of Malvaceae sensu APG. Some basic leaf architectural characters can also be used in describing certain clades within the family. It is recommended that specimens are collected personally instead on relying on available specimens in the herbarium. Preparation of leaf skeletons through clearing method can also be done in future studies. Increase of sample size is also recommended. KEYWORDS: leaf architecture, APG, classification INTRODUCTION Malvaceae Jussieu, nom. cons is a newly circumscribed family of the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG, 2003). This family now comprises 243 genera and 4225 species which are mainly tropical in distribution. In the APG system, member families of Malvales like Sterculiaceae, Bombacaceae, Tiliaceae and Malvaceae sensu strictu were merged to become Malvaceae sensu APG (or lato). This lumping of families became controversial and gained criticism from some taxonomists. Cheek (2006, see also Cheek in Heywood et. al., 2007, Stevens, 2010) opts for a full dismemberment of the super family into ten separate families (Bombacaceae, Malvaceae, Sterculiaceae, Tiliaceae, Durionaceae, Brownlowiaceae Byttneriaceae, Helicteraceae, Pentapetaceae, and Sparrmanniaceae).

Investigations on Ebenus cretica L. (Leguminosae). - Phyton (Horn, Austria) 45 (3): (363)-(374). In the present work the aerial surface and structural elements in the woody tissue of Ebe- nus cretica during its life cycle were investigated. The morphology and distribution of these features on the different organs were studied by scanning electron microscopy. One characteristic type of non-glandular trichomes (eglandular hairs) is derived from epidermal cells and covers most of the aerial surface of the plant. The development of trichomes before the development of ordinary epi- dermal cells and of stomata indicates the protecting nature of the trichomes. In cotyledon and in ephemeral flower organs trichomes are nearly absent. They are replaced by developing ordinary cells and transformed ordinary cells (papillae). The role of the papillae is postulated to be connected with the pollination ecology of the plant due to the optical properties of their cuticle ornamentation. The hypocotyledonary region of the stem is characterised by a woody cylinder predicting the woody nature of the plant. Xylem (libriform) fibres with thick gelatinous walls, integrated with the tra- cheary elements dominate the tissues of the woody root and stems.

  • Annonaceae (PDF)
    ANNONACEAE 番荔枝科 fan li zhi ke Li Bingtao (李秉滔 Li Ping-tao)1; Michael G. Gilbert2 Trees, shrubs, or climbers, wood and leaves often aromatic; indument of simple or less often (Uvaria, Annona) stellate hairs. Leaves alternate, normally distichous. Stipules absent. Petiole usually short; leaf blade simple, venation pinnate, margin entire. Inflo- rescences terminal, axillary, leaf-opposed, or extra-axillary [rarely on often underground suckerlike shoots]. Flowers usually bisex- ual, less often unisexual, solitary, in fascicles, glomerules, panicles, or cymes, sometimes on older wood, usually bracteate and/or bracteolate. Sepals hypogynous, [2 or]3, imbricate or valvate, persistent or deciduous, rarely enlarging and enclosing fruit, free or basally connate. Petals hypogynous, 3–6(–12), most often in 2 whorls of 3 or in 1 whorl of 3 or 4[or 6], imbricate or valvate, some- times outer whorl valvate and inner slightly imbricate. Stamens hypogynous, usually many, rarely few, spirally imbricate, in several series; filaments very short and thick; anther locules 2, contiguous or separate, rarely transversely locular, adnate to connective, extrorse or lateral, very rarely introrse, opening by a longitudinal slit; connectives often apically enlarged, usually ± truncate, often overtopping anther locules, rarely elongated or not produced. Carpels few to many, rarely solitary, free or less often connate into a 1- locular ovary with parietal placentas; ovules 1 or 2 inserted at base of carpel or 1 to several in 1 or 2 ranks along ventral suture, anatropous; styles short, thick, free or rarely connate; stigmas capitate to oblong, sometimes sulcate or 2-lobed. Fruit usually apocarpous with 1 to many free monocarps, these sometimes moniliform (constricted between seeds when more than 1-seeded), often fleshy, indehiscent, rarely dehiscent (Anaxagorea, Xylopia), and often with base extended into stipe, rarely on slender carpo- phore (Disepalum), less often syncarpous with carpels completely connate and seeds irregularly arranged and sometimes embedded in fleshy pulp.
