Myanmar and Thailand are adjacent countries that together occupy more than the half the area of continental Tropical Asia. This geographic area is diverse ecologically, ranging from cool-temperate to tropical climates, and includes from coast, rainforests and high mountain elevations. An updated checklist of aquatic plants, which includes 78 species in 44 genera from 24 families, are presented based on floristic works. This number includes seven species, that have never been listed in the previous floras and checklists.

  • Biosystematics of the Mimulus Nanus Complex in Oregon
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF WAYLAND LEE EZELL for the DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (Name) (Degree) in BOTANY presented on August 27, 1970 (Major) (Date) Title: BIOSYSTEMATICS OF THE MIMULUS NANUS COMPLEX IN OREGON Abstract approved:Redacted for Privacy Kenton L. Chambers A biosystematic study was made in seven populations of Mimulus nanus Hook. & Arn. and M. cusickii (Greene) Piper (Scrophulariaceae) in central Oregon, and a taxonomic revision was made of the four species of section Eunanus reported from Oregon--M. nanus, M. cusickii, M. clivicola Greenm. and M. jepsonii Grant.Mimulus nanus and M. cusickii have a chromosome number of n = 8. Based on their distinct genetic and morphological differences, M. nanus, M. cusickii and M. clivicola constitute three separate species in Oregon and surrounding regions. Members of M. nanus are the most highly variable in their morphology and are more widely dis- tributed geographically and ecologically.In a limited area of the Cascade Mountains of central and southern Oregon, an ecotype of M. nanus was discovered which differs from the typical form that is widely distributed in Oregon and Idaho.Also, the populations that have pre- viously been named M. jepsonii, occurring in the southern Cascade and northern Sierra Nevada mountains, Oregon and California, are herein treated as an ecotype of M. nanus; they are morphologically similar to this taxon but show differences in ecology and elevational range. The two ecotypes mentioned above appear to hybridize with typical M. nanus at their zones of contact, thus demonstrating the ability for genetic exchange in nature.Cross-compatibility was confirmed in greenhouse hybridizations between the Cascade ecotype and typical M.

    DISSERTATION VIABILITY AND INVASIVE POTENTIAL OF HYBRIDS BETWEEN YELLOW TOADFLAX (LINARIA VULGARIS) AND DALMATIAN TOADFLAX (LINARIA DALMATICA) Submitted by Marie F.S. Turner Department of Soil and Crop Sciences In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Fall 2012 Doctoral Committee: Advisor: Sarah Ward Christopher Richards David Steingraeber George Beck Sharlene Sing Copyright by Marie Frances Sundem Turner 2012 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT VIABILITY AND INVASIVE POTENTIAL OF HYBRIDS BETWEEN YELLOW TOADFLAX (LINARIA VULGARIS) AND DALMATIAN TOADFLAX (LINARIA DALMATICA) Although outcomes of hybridization are highly variable, it is now considered to play an important role in evolution, speciation, and invasion. Hybridization has recently been confirmed between populations of yellow (or common) toadflax (Linaria vulgaris) and Dalmatian toadflax (Linaria dalmatica) in the Rocky Mountain region of the United States. The presence of hybrid toadflax populations on public lands is of concern, as both parents are aggressive invaders already listed as noxious weeds in multiple western states. A common garden experiment was designed to measure differences in quantitative (shoot length, biomass, flowering stems, seed capsule production) phenological (time of emergence, first flowering and seed maturity) and ecophysiological (photosynthesis, transpiration and water use efficiency (WUE)) traits for yellow and Dalmatian toadflax, F1 and BC1 hybrids, as well as natural field-collected hybrids from two sites. Genotypes were cloned to produce true replicates and the entire common garden was also replicated at two locations (Colorado and Montana); physiological data were collected only in Colorado. All genotypes grew larger and were more reproductively active in Colorado than in Montana, and hybrids outperformed parent taxa across vegetative and reproductive traits indicating heterosis.
