In total, 111 compounds were identified, representing 98% of the essential oil. The essential oil was dominated by sesquiterpene (69.3%) and monoterpene hydrocarbons (15.9%), with germacrene D as the most abundant compound (34.7%). Several multivariant statistical methods (HCA, NJ, PCoA) were deployed to infer the relation between A. albanicus and other species belonging to this genus. Taxonomical implications are discussed.

Clonal Architectures and Diversity Spatial Pattern of Different Ploidies
Clonal architectures and diversity spatial pattern of different ploidies for Clintonia udensis in the Hualongshan Mountains Yue Gao1, Wei Han1, Lin Liu2, Hao Zhang1, En Zang1, GenLou Sun3, and Yiling Wang1 1Shanxi Normal University 2Ankang University 3Affiliation not available October 13, 2020 Abstract Clintonia udensis is a perennial herb possessing two cytotypes diploid (2n=14) and tetraploid (4n=28). In the Hualongshan Mountains, the diploid of C. udensis primarily grows in 2450 m areas on the south slopes, while the tetraploid grows mainly in 1900 m areas on the north slopes. So, this intra-polyploidy is regarded as an excellent material to study the origination, evolution and adaption of plant polyploidy. Through field investigations and molecular genotyping, we initially analyzed the bud bank spatial characteristics, clonal growth, and spatial genetic structure populations between the different ploidy of C. udensis. It found that the rhizome knot styles of C. udensis had zigzag, C, V, and Y models between the two cytotypes. There was no dominated clone present in the diploid or tetraploid. The clone architectures of two ploidies were both phalanxes. However, the number of rhizome knots, the number of buds of each rhizome knot, the ratio of rhizome branches, and average tetraploid clones were higher than that of the diploid. The diversity indices of the tetraploid, such as clone diversity index, genetic distribution uniformity, and genetic diversity index, were also slightly higher than that of the diploid. Thus, clonal reproduction differentiation and significant genetic variations occurred between the diploid and tetraploid of C. udensis. These two cytotypes, through seed reproduction and clonal growth, became a facultative clonal species and maintained its survival stability and reproduction. -

Chromosome Numbers and Polyploidy Events in Korean Non-Commelinids Monocots: a Contribution to Plant Systematics
pISSN 1225-8318 − Korean J. Pl. Taxon. 48(4): 260 277 (2018) eISSN 2466-1546 https://doi.org/10.11110/kjpt.2018.48.4.260 Korean Journal of REVIEW Plant Taxonomy Chromosome numbers and polyploidy events in Korean non-commelinids monocots: A contribution to plant systematics Tae-Soo JANG* and Hanna WEISS-SCHNEEWEISS1 Department of Biological Science, College of Bioscience and Biotechnology, Chungnam National University, Daejeon 34134, Korea 1Department of Botany and Biodiversity Research, University of Vienna, A-1030 Vienna, Austria (Received 4 June 2018; Revised 9 September 2018; Accepted 16 December 2018) ABSTRACT: The evolution of chromosome numbers and the karyotype structure is a prominent feature of plant genomes contributing to or at least accompanying plant diversification and eventually leading to speciation. Polyploidy, the multiplication of whole chromosome sets, is widespread and ploidy-level variation is frequent at all taxonomic levels, including species and populations, in angiosperms. Analyses of chromosome numbers and ploidy levels of 252 taxa of Korean non-commelinid monocots indicated that diploids (ca. 44%) and tet- raploids (ca. 14%) prevail, with fewer triploids (ca. 6%), pentaploids (ca. 2%), and hexaploids (ca. 4%) being found. The range of genome sizes of the analyzed taxa (0.3–44.5 pg/1C) falls well within that reported in the Plant DNA C-values database (0.061–152.33 pg/1C). Analyses of karyotype features in angiosperm often involve, in addition to chromosome numbers and genome sizes, mapping of selected repetitive DNAs in chro- mosomes. All of these data when interpreted in a phylogenetic context allow for the addressing of evolution- ary questions concerning the large-scale evolution of the genomes as well as the evolution of individual repeat types, especially ribosomal DNAs (5S and 35S rDNAs), and other tandem and dispersed repeats that can be identified in any plant genome at a relatively low cost using next-generation sequencing technologies. -

The Relationship of Monardella Viminea to Closely Related Taxa
The relationship of Monardella viminea to closely related taxa based on analyses of ISSRs. Prepared for the USFWS Carlsbad, CA Office 4 September, 2009 P0750003 Final Report Linda M. Prince Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden 1500 North College Ave. Claremont, CA 91711-3157 Willowy Monardella [Monardella linoides A. Gray subsp. viminea (E. Greene) Abrams] is listed as an endangered species under both the Federal Endangered Species Act (Department of the Interior 1998) and the State of California (California Department of Fish and Game 1979). This taxon occurs in San Diego County, California, and adjacent Baja California, Mexico. A recent examination of Willowy Monardella (Elvin and Sanders 2003) resulted in a change of rank and circumscription. The taxon was elevated to species rank and the circumscription was narrowed, resulting in the recognition of two species, M. viminea and M. stoneana Elvin & Sanders. The newly circumscribed M. viminea is restricted to an area approximately 22.5 km wide by 11 km long in coastal San Diego County, mainly on Miramar Marine Corps Air Station as shown in Fig. 1. Thirty- one localities have been recorded in the California Department of Fish and Game’s Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB) although some of those individual occurrences have been merged in the database. The newly described species M. stoneana is restricted to more inland regions of the county and adjacent Baja, and is currently known from 9 occurrences in the USA, spanning a 20 km wide by 6 km high region SE of Otay Reservoir. Given the isolated and undeveloped nature of the region and the restricted access (City of San Diego and Bureau of Land Management), it is likely that there are additional, undocumented occurrences of this taxon in the vicinity of Tecate Peak. -

Tamura Herbs perennial, with a short rhizome. Leaves several, basal, entire. Scape erect, often leafless. Inflorescence terminal, umbellate or racemose, rarely 1-flowered; rachis and pedicels usually elongate in fruit. Flowers small. Tepals 6, free, ascending to spreading, subequal. Stamens 6, inserted at base of tepals; filaments filiform; anthers pseudobasifixed, ellipsoid, semiextrorse. Ovary ovoid-globose, (2 or)3-loculed; ovules several to many per locule. Style columnar; stigma obscurely 3-lobed. Fruit a berry. Seeds 2 or more; testa usually brownish. Five species: temperate to subarctic regions of E Asia and North America; one species in China. Although Tamura (in Kubitzki, Fam. Gen. Vasc. Pl. 3: 350. 1998) placed Clintonia in the Liliaceae sensu stricto, Wu Zhengyi (editor’s note) believes it should be treated in the segregate family Medeolaceae. Takhtajan (Diversity Classific. Fl. Pl. 487. 1997) recognized Medeolaceae but placed Clintonia in the Uvulariaceae (pp. 482–483). 1. Clintonia udensis Trautvetter & C. A. Meyer in Middendorff, Reise Sibir. 1(Theil 2, Bot.
