Sanderson1 ABSTRACT.—Previous accounts of polyploidy in the North American salt desert shrub Atriplex confertifolia (shad- scale) have dealt with the distribution of polyploidy and the morphological and secondary chemical differences between races. The present study amplifies these studies and reveals additional ploidy-flavonoid races, with ploidy levels known to extend from 2x to 12x, and all except 2x and 12x represented by races with and without 6-methoxylation of flavonol compounds. Results of this study show that diploids across their range have about 113% as much DNA per genome as do polyploids and that parallel variation in monoploid genome size between diploids and accompanying polyploids can be shown in different parts of the species’ range.

Glassow, Committee Chair July 2015 Ancient Plant Use and the Importance of Geophytes among the Island Chumash of Santa Cruz Island, California Copyright © 2015 By Kristina Marie Gill iii DEDICATION This dissertation is dedicated to my Family, Mike Glassow, and the Chumash People. iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am indebted to many people who have provided guidance, encouragement, and support in my career as an archaeologist, and especially through my undergraduate and graduate studies. For those of whom I am unable to personally thank here, know that I deeply appreciate your support. First and foremost, I want to thank my chair Michael Glassow for his patience, enthusiasm, and encouragement during all aspects of this daunting project. I am also truly grateful to have had the opportunity to know, learn from, and work with my other committee members, Mike Jochim, Amber VanDerwarker, and Lynn Gamble. I cherish my various field experiences with them all on the Channel Islands and especially in southern Germany with Mike Jochim, whose worldly perspective I value deeply. I also thank Terry Jones, who provided me many undergraduate opportunities in California archaeology and encouraged me to attend a field school on San Clemente Island with Mark Raab and Andy Yatsko, an experience that left me captivated with the islands and their history.

A.J. de Villiers,* I. von Te ichman, M.W. van Rooyen and G.K. Theron Department of Botany. University of Pretoria, Pretoria, 0002 Republic of South Africa Reaived J April 1996: reviJed 2 Jul.\' /996 Anatomical changes in the roots and leaves of Atriplex semibaccata R. Br., induced by salinity stress, as well as photosynthetic and stomatal response to salinity. were investigated. As salinity increased, decreases were observed in rool diameter and leaf size, as well as in the number of chloroplasts in the chlorenchyma and bundle sheath cells. Development of these two cell types was also inhibited. Net leaf photosynthetic rate and leaf stomatal conductance decreased with increasing salinity, while the interceJlular CO 2 concentration increased. 80th stomatal closure and inhibition of biochemical processes probably caused the reduced leaf photosynthetic rates. The stomatal indices suggest that the trend towards an increase in number of stomata per unit leaf area with an increase in salinity was not due to decreased epidermal cell size.
