Vida e obra – pensamento e acção 4 Apresentação O final do século XVIII foi um período áureo para o estudo da flora portuguesa, com o trabalho de dois botânicos de nomeada – Brotero e Link. Um século passado, e apesar dos trabalhos realizados pelo Conde de Ficalho (da Escola Politécnica de Lisboa), pelo Barão de Castelo de Paiva (da Academia Politécnica do Porto) e por Welwitsch, a Botânica portuguesa ansiava por modernização. Esta tarefa seria liderada por três botânicos portugueses notáveis – Júlio Henriques (da Universidade de Coimbra), A. X. Pereira Coutinho (da Universidade de Lisboa) e Gonçalo Sampaio (da Universidade do Porto). G. Sampaio (1865-1937) nasceu na Póvoa de Lanhoso. Frequentou a Universidade de Coimbra e a Academia Politécnica do Porto, mas não concluiu os cursos. Em 1901, entrou como naturalista-adjunto de botânica da Academia Politécnica do Porto, em 1912, foi contratado como professor da Faculdade de Ciências do Porto, aposentando-se em 1935. Os seus primeiros trabalhos botânicos focalizam-se no estudo da flora vascular do norte do país, publicando, em 1904, uma revisão do género Rubus em Portugal. Em 1905 publica as «Notas criticas sobre a flora portugueza», cujo formato – discussão detalhada de táxones difíceis, confusos ou mal- conhecidos da flora portuguesa e descrição de táxones novos para a ciência, será o da maioria dos seus trabalhos posteriores. G. Sampaio revela, desde início, uma marcada preocupação com a nomenclatura botânica, apresentando ideias divergentes das seguidas nos Congressos Internacionais de Botânica.

    Snow White and Rose Red: Studies on the contrasting evolutionary trajectories of the genera Leucanthemum Mill. and Rhodanthemum B.H.Wilcox & al. (Compositae, Anthemideae) DISSERTATION ZUR ERLANGUNG DES DOKTORGRADES DER NATURWISSENSCHAFTEN (DR. RER. NAT.) DER FAKULTÄT FÜR BIOLOGIE UND VORKLINISCHE MEDIZIN DER UNIVERSITÄT REGENSBURG vorgelegt von Florian Wagner aus Burgstall (Mitwitz) Juli 2019 Das Promotionsgesuch wurde eingereicht am: 12.07.2019 Die Arbeit wurde angeleitet von: Prof. Dr. Christoph Oberprieler Unterschrift: ……………………………....... Florian Wagner iv Abstract Plant systematics, the study of taxonomy, phylogeny and evolutionary processes in plants has undergone considerable progress in the last decades. The application of modern molecular approaches and DNA-sequencing techniques in the field has led to an improved inventory of biodiversity and a better understanding of evolutionary processes shaping the biological diversity on our planet. The increased availability of molecular and genomic data has particularly facilitated the investigation of shallowly diverged and taxonomically complex taxon-groups, which is challenging due to minor morphological differences, low genetic differentiation and/or hybridization among taxa. The present thesis investigates species delimitation, hybridization and polyploidization in the recently diverged genera Leucanthemum Mill. and Rhodanthemum B.H. Wilcox & al. of the subtribe Leucantheminae K.Bremer & Humphries (Compositae, Anthemideae) by applying Sanger-, 454-pyro-, and restriction site associated

DILLENBERGER1 Which changes are needed to render all genera of the German lora monophyletic? Version of record irst published online on 24 March 2016 ahead of inclusion in April 2016 issue. Abstract: The use of DNA sequence data in plant systematics has brought us closer than ever to formulating well- founded hypotheses about phylogenetic relationships, and phylogenetic research keeps on revealing that plant genera as traditionally circumscribed often are not monophyletic. Here, we assess the monophyly of all genera of vascular plants found in Germany. Using a survey of the phylogenetic literature, we discuss which classiications would be consistent with the phylogenetic relationships found and could be followed, provided monophyly is accepted as the primary criterion for circumscribing taxa. We indicate whether and which names are available when changes in ge- neric assignment are made (but do not present a comprehensive review of the nomenclatural aspects of such names). Among the 840 genera examined, we identiied c. 140 where data quality is suiciently high to conclude that they are not monophyletic, and an additional c. 20 where monophyly is questionable but where data quality is not yet suicient to reach convincing conclusions. While it is still iercely debated how a phylogenetic tree should be trans- lated into a classiication, our results could serve as a guide to the likely consequences of systematic research for the taxonomy of the German lora and the loras of neighbouring countries.

  • Molecular Phylogeny, Radiation Patterns and Evolution of Life-History Traits in Ursinia (Anthemideae, Asteraceae)
    Molecular Phylogeny, Radiation Patterns and Evolution of Life-History Traits in Ursinia (Anthemideae, Asteraceae) by Nonkululeko Swelankomo A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science at Stellenbosch University Department of Botany and Zoology Faculty of Science Supervisor: Prof. Ladislav Mucina Co-supervisor: Prof. Dirk U. Bellstedt December 2008 2 Declaration By submitting this dissertation electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the owner of the copyright thereof (unless to the extent explicitly stated otherwise) and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: Desember, 2008 Copyright © 2008 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved 3 Abstract Sequence data from the Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) of the nuclear ribosomal DNA were used to study the phylogenetic relationships in the genus Ursinia Gaertn. (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) in the southern African region. Closely related genera, i.e. Cotula L., Osteospermum L. and Agoseris Raf., were used as outgroups. The study also included maximum parsimony and principal component analyses. The taxa within the genus Ursinia had previously been classified into two subgenera, Ursinia and Sphenogyne R.Br., mainly on the basis of distinct cypsela characters. The maximum parsimony, principal component and the phylogenetic analyses revealed two subgenera, corresponding to the existing subgeneric classification. Principal component analysis shows that the pappus, the number of pappus bristles and the colour of the cypsela are the most informative characters. However, the low number of phylogenetically informative characters of the ITS sequences, the poor resolution in the consensus tree, and low branch support values indicate that the ITS data contain weak phylogenetic signals.
