Many species produce dimorphic pitchers, and the relative production rate of the two morphs varies interspecifically. Despite their probable ecological importance to the plants, little is known about the selective context under which various pitcher traits have evolved. This is especially true of colour-related traits, which have not been examined in a phylogenetic context. Using field observations of one polymorphic species (N. gracilis) and comparative phylogenetic analysis of 85 species across the genus, we investigate correlations between colour polymorphism and ecological factors including altitude, light environment and herbivory. In N. gracilis, colour does not correlate with amount of prey captured, but red pitchers experience less herbivory. Throughout the genus, colour polymorphism with redder lower pitchers appears to be evolutionarily favoured. We found a lack of phylogenetic signal for most traits, either suggesting that most traits are labile or reflecting the uncertainty regarding the underlying tree topology.

  • Nepenthes Gracilis Pitcher Plants
    With a Flick of the Lid: A Novel Trapping Mechanism in Nepenthes gracilis Pitcher Plants Ulrike Bauer1,2*, Bruno Di Giusto3, Jeremy Skepper4, T. Ulmar Grafe2, Walter Federle5 1 Department of Plant Sciences, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom, 2 Department of Biology, University Brunei Darussalam, Gadong, Brunei Darussalam, 3 English Language Center, Ming Chuan University, Taipei, Taiwan, 4 Department of Physiology, Development and Neuroscience, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom, 5 Department of Zoology, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom Abstract Carnivorous pitcher plants capture prey with modified leaves (pitchers), using diverse mechanisms such as ‘insect aquaplaning’ on the wet pitcher rim, slippery wax crystals on the inner pitcher wall, and viscoelastic retentive fluids. Here we describe a new trapping mechanism for Nepenthes gracilis which has evolved a unique, semi-slippery wax crystal surface on the underside of the pitcher lid and utilises the impact of rain drops to ‘flick’ insects into the trap. Depending on the experimental conditions (simulated ‘rain’, wet after ‘rain’, or dry), insects were captured mainly by the lid, the peristome, or the inner pitcher wall, respectively. The application of an anti-slip coating to the lower lid surface reduced prey capture in the field. Compared to sympatric N. rafflesiana, N. gracilis pitchers secreted more nectar under the lid and less on the peristome, thereby directing prey mainly towards the lid. The direct contribution to prey capture represents a novel function of the pitcher lid.

ABSTRACT Nepenthes mirabilis (Lour.) Druce is a species of pitcher plants which captures insects for additional nutrients, enhancing its survival at a place with low nutritional value. With a bright colour and alluring nectar, insects are attracted to and trapped inside pitchers with slippery walls. These preys are soon digested by the juice released by the pitcher gland. In contrast to the unique carnivorous behavior though, it is interesting that mosquito is a rare species that can live within the pitchers and lay eggs on the digestive juice without being digested.

  • Prey Capture Patterns in Nepenthes Species and Natural Hybrids – Are the Pitchers of Hybrids As Effective at Trapping Prey As Those of Their Parents?
    Technical Refereed Contribution Prey capture patterns in Nepenthes species and natural hybrids – are the pitchers of hybrids as effective at trapping prey as those of their parents? Heon Sui Peng • Charles Clarke • School of Science • Monash University Malaysia • Jalan Lagoon Selatan • 46150 Bandar Sunway • Selangor • Malaysia • [email protected] Keywords: Nepenthes, natural hybrids, prey capture, arthropods, trap structure. Introduction The carnivorous pitcher plant genus Nepenthes (Nepenthaceae) is thought to comprise more than 120 species, with a geographical range that extends from Madagascar and the Seychelles in the west, through Southeast Asia to New Caledonia in the east (Cheek & Jebb 2001; Chin et al. 2014). There are three foci of diversity – Borneo, Sumatra, and the Philippines – which account for more than 75% of all known species (Moran et al. 2013). The pitchers of Nepenthes have three main components – the pitcher cup, the peristome (a collar-like band of lignified tissue that lines the pitcher mouth), and the lid (Fig. 1A-G). In most species, the lid is broad and flat and overhangs the mouth (Fig. 1B-D), but in some specialized species it is small and oriented away from the mouth (Fig. 1A,E). The inner walls of the pitcher cup may be divided into two discrete zones – a lower “digestive” zone in which the pitcher walls lack a waxy cuticle and are lined with digestive glands; and an upper “conductive” zone, which lacks digestive glands but is covered by a complex array of wax crystals (Juniper et al. 1989; Bonhomme et al. 2011). Insects that make their way onto the conductive surface often lose their footing and fall into the digestive zone, which contains a viscoelastic fluid that facilitates the retention and drowning of prey.

Received: 18 May 2020; Accepted: 17 June 2020; Published: 19 June 2020 Abstract: Nepenthes is a genus of carnivorous plants that evolved a pitfall trap, the pitcher, to catch and digest insect prey to obtain additional nutrients. Each pitcher is part of the whole leaf, together with a leaf blade. These two completely different parts of the same organ were studied separately in a non-targeted metabolomics approach in Nepenthes x ventrata, a robust natural hybrid. The first aim was the analysis and profiling of small (50–1000 m/z) polar and non-polar molecules to find a characteristic metabolite pattern for the particular tissues. Second, the impact of insect feeding on the metabolome of the pitcher and leaf blade was studied. Using UPLC-ESI- qTOF and cheminformatics, about 2000 features (MS/MS events) were detected in the two tissues. They showed a huge chemical diversity, harboring classes of chemical substances that significantly discriminate these tissues.

Nepenthes spp are protected plant and most of them are at least concern criteria. The research purpose is to explore the habitat information that supports the existence of Nepenthes in the area around Sampit Botanic Gardens, Central Kalimantan. Three different sites have been selected in this research. In each sites, seven sampling plots have been made by purposively sampling, each plot measuring 5x5 m2. In the Gelam Forest (Melaleuca quinquenervia), two Nepenthes species have been found, namely Nepenthes gracilis and Nepenthes mirabilis. In two other sites, in Peat Swamp Forest and Alang-alang Forest (Imperata cylindrica), dominated by N. mirabilis. Combretocarpus rotundatus is a tree in the Peat Swamp Forest that is mostly climbed by Nepenthes. Scleria sumatrensis and Stenochlaena palustris are two species of plants that are always found in the three research sites, but the dominant family is Melastomataceae primarily represented by Melastoma malabathricum.
