  • Services of Comarum Palustre (Rosaceae)
    Multilevel Spatial Structure Impacts on the Pollination Services of Comarum palustre (Rosaceae) Laurent Somme*, Carolin Mayer, Anne-Laure Jacquemart Earth and Life Institute-Agronomy, Research Team Genetics, Reproduction, Populations, Universite´ Catholique de Louvain, Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium Abstract Habitat destruction and fragmentation accelerate pollinator decline, consequently disrupting ecosystem processes such as pollination. To date, the impacts of multilevel spatial structure on pollination services have rarely been addressed. We focused on the effects of population spatial structure on the pollination services of Comarum palustre at three levels (i.e. within-population, between-populations and landscape). For three years, we investigated 14 Belgian populations, which differed in their within-population flower density, population surface, closure (i.e. proportion of the population edge that consisted of woody elements) and isolation (i.e. percentage of woody area cover within a 500 m radius from the population centre). We tested whether these spatial characteristics impact on pollinator abundance and visitation rate and thus, reproductive success of C. palustre. Insects were observed in 15 randomly-chosen plots in each population. We tested for pollen limitation with supplemental hand-cross pollination. Bumble bees and solitary bees were the major pollinators through all populations. Within populations, plots with high flower densities attracted high numbers of bumble bees and other insects. High bumble bee and solitary bee abundance was observed in populations presenting high proportions of woody edges and in populations within landscapes presenting high proportions of woody areas. Seed set resulting from open pollination varied with bumble bee and solitary bee visitation rate, leading to increased pollen limitation when pollinators were scarce.

    Population structure and distribution of the declining endangered forest plant Chimaphila umbellata by Anna Lundell Plants & Ecology The Department of Ecology, 2014/1 Environment and Plant Sciences Stockholm University Population structure and distribution of the declining endangared forest plant Chimaphila umbellata by Anna Lundell Supervisors: Ove Eriksson & Sara Cousins Plants & Ecology The Department of Ecology, 2014/1 Environment and Plant Sciences Stockholm University Plants & Ecology The Department of Ecology, Environment and Plant Sciences Stockholm University S-106 91 Stockholm Sweden © The Department of Ecology, Environment and Plant Sciences ISSN 1651-9248 Printed by FMV Printcenter Cover: Flowering Chimaphila umbellata. Photo by Margareta Edqvist. Summary The occurrence of the rare forest plant Chimaphila umbellata has decreased with approximately 80 % in Uppland and its decline is also reported for other regions in Sweden. Suggested causes of decline include the increasingly shaded conditions in understory habitats and increased competition from Vaccinium myrtillus and graminoid species. The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of various biotic and abiotic conditions on C. umbellata populations with regard to population size, flowering frequency, fruit set and seed production. Conditions analyzed include light inflow, coverage of competitive species, soil nitrogen, continuity of forest cover and soil texture, which were investigated in 38 C. umbellata sites in Uppland and Södermanland, Sweden. Results showed that population size was negatively affected by the coverage of competitive species. Population size was not affected by light availability, but increased shading resulted in a decreased flowering frequency. Fruit set decreased with increasing coverage of competitive species and seed production per capsule decreased with increasing soil nitrogen content.

Lammers ABSTRACT. Onagraceae are a family of 17 genera in seven tribes, with the majority of species in tribes Onagreae and Epilobieae. Despite the species-richness of these two tribes, to date no phylogenetic study has been done with suf!cient taxon sampling to examine relationships between and within these tribes. In this study, we used DNA sequence data from one nuclear region (ITS) and two chloroplast regions (trnL-trnF and rps16) to infer phylogenetic relationships among 93 taxa across the family, with concentrated sampling in the large tribe Onagreae.

Baker Approved by the Master's Thesis Corrunittee V~+J~.Jr, Chairman ~;'J.~''c \. (l .:, r---- (I'. J~!-\ Approved by the Graduate Dean ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS An ethnobotanical study necessitates the cooperation of individuals who among themselves have a wide range of diverse interests. Dr. James Payne Smith, Jr., Professor of Botany was the chief coordinator of this unity as well as my princi- pal advisor and editor. Most of the botanical related prob- lems and many grammatical questions were discussed with him. Torn Nelson, Herbarium Assistant of the HSU Herbarium, aided in the identification of many plant specimens. Dr. Jim Waters, Professor of Zoology, dealt with cor- rections concerning his field, and discerningly and meticu- lously proofread the entire text. From the formal field of ethnology, Dr. Pat Wenger, Professor of Anthropolo~y, worked with me on problems in linguistics, phonetics, and other aspects of ethnography. He also discussed with me many definitions, theories, and atti- tudes of modern ethnologists. The field work would not have been possible without the help of Torn Parsons, Director of the Center for Community Development, Arcata, California. Mr. Parsons has been work- ing with the Tolowa, Karok, and Yurok for many years and was able to introduce me to reliable and authentic sources of cultural information.
