We used pollen grains of 25 accessions representing 24 species of the Codonopsis complex (including Campanumoea, Cyclocodon, Leptocodon, and all three subgenera of Codonopsis), which is extremely controversial among authors for taxonomic treatment. Pollen morphology of all the other genera in the group observed by previous authors is taken into account in our discussion. A total of nine pollen types with two subtypes in the group were recognized and named for the first time. Molecular and morphological data imply that each pollen type corresponds to a natural group at generic level, and thus the mergence of Leptocodon with Codonopsis and the restoration of Cyclocodon as a separate genus are justifiable, and Codonopsis subg. Pseudocodonopsis, subg. Obconicicapsula, and two species of Codonopsis subg. Codonopsis (C. purpurea and C. chimiliensis) may be better classified as three independent genera separate from the core Codonopsis.

Introduction tell us that the Campanulaceae s. str. consists of three ma- jor monophyletic groups: campanuloids, platycodonoids and The Campanulaceae s. str. is a well-established family (Cosner wahlenbergioids. et al. 1994; Gustafsson and Bremer 1995; Gustafsson et al. On the other hand, the three studies mentioned above also 1996; Lundberg and Bremer 2003). However, the subdivisions indicate that the phylogenetic relationships within each of the of the family and the relationships of genera were unclear three major groups are far from well established. They all clearly before this century. Recent studies on molecular systematics show that Campanula and Wahlenbergia each is a polyphyletic of the Campanulaceae s. str. have resulted in more insight genus in the traditional sense.

Thus, Lammers expanded sampling in Codonopsis, including the type species adopted the broadest concept of Codonopsis, accommodating C. viridis. all four genera mentioned above.

However, there is no optimal protocol for the commercial production of C. lanceolata seedlings. This study was carried out to find the optimum supplementary light source for the production of C. lanceolata seedlings. Seedlings were grown for four weeks in a glasshouse with an average daily light intensity of 490 µmol·m−2·s−1 photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) coming from the sun and a 16-h daily supplementary lighting at 120 µmol·m−2·s−1 PPFD from either high-pressure sodium (HPS), metal halide (MH), far-red (FR), white LED (LED-w), or mixed (white: red: blue = 1:2:1) LEDs (LED-mix). The results showed that the greatest total biomass, stem diameter, ratio of shoot weight to shoot length, root biomass, and ratio of root weight to shoot weight were found in seedlings grown under supplementary LED-mix.

Moreover, the handedness of the 14 stems can be strongly influenced by external forces, i.e. the compulsory left and right 15 forming inclined to produce more left- and right-handed twining stems, respectively, 16 and the reversing could make a left-handed stem to be right-handed and vice versa.

I. Palynological data Kari E. Morris1,2 and Thomas G. Lammers2,3 1Department of Biological Sciences, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL 60608, USA 2Department of Botany, Center for Evolutionary and Environmental Biology, Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago, IL 60605-2496, USA (Received January 28, 1997; Accepted May 16, 1997) Abstract. Pollen from 23 accessions of Codonopsis and the allied genera Campanumoea and Leptocodon was exam- ined via light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. All grains examined were of four types. Type I grains (found in all accessions of Campanumoea sect. Campanumoea, Codonopsis subg. Codonopsis, and Leptocodon) were oblate sphaeroidal, circular in polar outline, 410-colpate, with long colpi, short spinules, and thin nexine. Type II grains (found in all accessions of Campanumoea sect. Cyclocodon) were oblate sphaeroidal, semi-angular in polar outline, 3-colporate, with long colpi, long spinules, and thick nexine. Type III grains (found in all accessions of Codonopsis subg. Pseudocodonopsis) resembled Type I grains, but had the long spinules characteristic of Type II; further, the colpi were much shorter than in Type I and II. Type IV grains (found in all accessions of Codonopsis subg. Obconicicapsula) likewise resembled Type I grains, but had colpi of a length intermediate between Type I and Type III. The uniformity of pollen morphology in Campanumoea sect. Campanumoea, Codonopsis subgen. Codonopsis, and Leptocodon might be interpreted as supporting their merger as a single genus, while the distinctness of Type I and Type II pollen might be interpreted as supporting the recognition of Cyclocodon as a genus distinct from Codonopsis.
