M. Bieb; Viscaceae) is a semi-parasitic species parazitizing at the Crimean Peninsula Juniperus deltoides as a principal host, and J. excelsa and Platycladus orientalis as secondary ones. Basing on the detailed surveys on A. oxycedri range in 2013–2018 it was found that heterogenously distributed populations of hemi-parasite are confined predominantly to the Southern and South-East Coast, as well as to the South-Western Foothills, generally coinciding with the range of J. deltoides. According to Maxent modelling, A. oxycedri range is limited by such climatic factors as average temperature of the most humid and the driest seasons, precipitation of the driest month, and annual amplitude of temperatures (Krasylenko et al., 2017; Kukushkin et al., 2017). It is noteworthy that host infection pattern is patchy, since the heavily infested trees neighbour the completelely unaffected ones even within one mountain slope. Moreover, the sole J. deltoides trees parazitized by A. oxycedri were found at a distance of circa 0.5−1 km from the infected localities, probably, due to ornithochory. Exclusively negative impact of A. oxycedri on host at the Crimea is doubtful, since both components of host-parasite system are related to Quaternary refugia of thermophyllic plants and to this extent are relics. Currently, A. oxycedri dissemination rate is lower than the host one, its distribution is limited, and junipers lifespan in natural biotopes is compromized by multiple (a)biotic stress factors. Therefore, A. oxycedri ”behaves more like a hyena, then a wolf”, and is hardly a key factor of host decline. 12:38 - 12:45 D7q Effects of gap harvest on ectomycorrhizal fungal biodiversity and pine seedling growth Lill Eilertsen1, Anders Dahlberg2, Lina Nilsson1, Johanna Urzua1, Nicklas Samils3, Judith Felten1 1Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Umeå, Sweden. 2Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Uppsala, Sweden. 3Bergvik Skog AB, Falun, Sweden Abstract The majority of temperate and boreal forest trees live in symbioses with ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF). Considering the significance of EMF for forest soils, tree growth and health, their conservation is ecologically important. Clear-cutting, that is the predominant forest harvest practice in Sweden, strongly affects the presence and composition of EMF communities in soils. How fungi are affected by alternative harvesting and forest management strategies is debated. Here we focus on gap-harvest as an alternative harvesting practice using DNA amplicon sequencing, currently the most accurate technique to identify fungi in soil. We compare the effect of gap-size (35, 50, 70m/Ø) on seedling growth and EMF biodiversity in humus and mineral soil at an experimental site installed by Bergvik Skog AB in Middle Sweden. To provide both the forest industry as well as conservationists and scientific research with a more rapid and inexpensive method for fungal identification in soil samples, we are also developing a method using hand-held spectroscopic devices. To validate this method, results on sensitivity and specificity of fungal identification in soil samples, will be compared to data from DNA- amplicon sequencing. This has the potential to allow vast data acquisition on effects of forest management and harvesting practices on EMF biodiversity, as well as to enable routine measurements for matching EMF inoculum for nurseries to the EMF composition at sites of out-planting The long-term aim of this project is to provide novel tools and research-based guidelines for more sustainable forestry where EMF and their potential benefits are taken into account. 12:45 - 12:52 D7q Radial and axial variation on the wood structure of some ‘giant’ mistletoes: three species of Loranthaceae Victor Sibinelli, Luiza Teixeira-Costa, Gregório Ceccantini Universidade de São Paulo, Sao Paulo, Brazil Abstract Mistletoes, from a hydraulic perspective, show one of the most interesting examples of xylem structure. These plants can develop a “chimeric sap transport system”, which comprises both host and parasite woods. At the connection site there is a complex structure generally called haustorium, that connects cells of host and parasite. Additionally, these parasites may cause an overload for the transport capacity, since they usually bear stomata in both leaf faces, which low gas exchange control. Therefore, the capacity to regulate and adjust the transport system is a key factor in determining the probability of survival of a parasitic plant. This work investigated whether and how the wood structure of some mistletoes varies within the stem topology. Three Loranthaceae species with variation in size and form, but all with relatively large dimensions were studied either radially or axially. Psittacanthus robustus is a woodrose-forming shrub with thick branches up to 3m long and 4 cm in diameter; Tripodanthus acutifolius, a lianescent/tree species that reaches several meters; and Struthanthus flexicaulis, a decurrent shrub with very flexible and long stems. Our data suggest that, at least the thickest calibre species (P. robustus and T. acutifolius) indeed reached a state of wood maturity. In the case of Struthanthus flexicaulis, our data suggest that one of two things might be occurring: i) there is a reduction on the mean vessel diameter, lowering the risk of cavitation; ii) there is an increase in the total vessel density, increasing the redundancy of the system 12:53 - 13:00 D7q Ectomycorrhizal community composition changes along to silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) phenological stages in Slovenia Tina Unuk, Domen Finžgar, Rok Damjanic, Tine Grebenc, Hojka Kraigher Slovenian Forestry Institute, Ljubljana, Slovenia Abstract The timing of leaf phenology is one of the most important characteristics for tree growth and survival. In most forest tree roots form symbiotic associations with mycorrhizal fungi, however till date still little is known about effects of mycorrhizal fungi on tree phenology and vice versa. The aim of this study was to analyze ectomycorrhizal fungal community of silver fir and changes in abundance linked to phenology. The phenological stages of silver fir trees were followed weekly for two years, and along these, 5 soil cores per individual observed silver fir tree were analyzed for ectomycorrhizal symbionts, which were further identified using Sanger sequencing of an individual ectomycorrhizal morphotype. Analyzes of beta diversity between phenological stages revealed significant differences in the overall ectomycorrhizal community between dormancy and bud bursting, whereas there is an overlap between ectomycorrhizal community in dormancy and full needle expansion as well as between bud bursting and full needle expansion. Abundance analyzes of ectomycorrhizal species between phenological stages revealed higher abundances of Russula ochroleuca, Tomentella stuposa, Tomentella sublilacina and Tylospora fibrillosa during bud bursting, which are ectomycorrhizal species for which the presence of manganese peroxidase and/or laccase has already been suggested or confirmed. Our results indicate a need for more detailed analyzes of possible presence of mentioned enzymes, as well as any hormonal regulation among ectomycorrhizal species associated with bud burst and silver fir trees. The presentation contributes to the aims and means of the project LIFEGENMON (LIFE13 ENV/SI/000148). 13:00 - 13:07 D7q Effects of the parasitism of the mistletoe Struthanthus martianus (Loranthaceae) on the reduction of increment in Tipuana tipu (Leguminosae): evidence of a systemic effects by one single parasitized branch Evelyn Pereira Camargo, Eduardo Mineo Iegawa, Luiza Teixeira-Costa, Gregorio Ceccantini University of Sao Paulo, Sao Paulo, Brazil Abstract The mistletoe species Struthanthus martianus (Loranthaceae) is a generalist hemiparasite native to Brazil. Among its many host species, it is frequently observed to infest an urban tree species named Tipuana tipu (Leguminosae), originally endemic species to Northern Argentina Given to the clearly marked semi-porous growth rings, T. tipu is widely used in dendrochronological analyses. In the present study, we have analyzed the influence of the parasite S. martianus on the annual growth rates of T. tipu. From infested trees, both parasitized (PB) and non-parasitized branches (NPB) were sampled. Branches from non-infested trees (NIT) were also sampled and analyzed. Our results show that, despite the overall decrease in growth rates for all analyzed samples, during the five most recent rings, both PB and NPB a faster decrease in growth rates was detected, which was indicated by the slope of the adjusted growth curve. This recent decrease could

    Mistletoes: Pathogens, Keystone Resource, and Medicinal Wonder Abstracts Oral Presentations Phylogenetic relationships in Phoradendron (Viscaceae) Vanessa Ashworth, Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden Keywords: Phoradendron, Systematics, Phylogenetics Phoradendron Nutt. is a genus of New World mistletoes comprising ca. 240 species distributed from the USA to Argentina and including the Antillean islands. Taxonomic treatments based on morphology have been hampered by phenotypic plasticity, size reduction of floral parts, and a shortage of taxonomically useful traits. Morphological characters used to differentiate species include the arrangement of flowers on an inflorescence segment (seriation) and the presence/absence and pattern of insertion of cataphylls on the stem. The only trait distinguishing Phoradendron from Dendrophthora Eichler, another New World mistletoe genus with a tropical distribution contained entirely within that of Phoradendron, is the number of anther locules. However, several lines of evidence suggest that neither Phoradendron nor Dendrophthora is monophyletic, although together they form the strongly supported monophyletic tribe Phoradendreae of nearly 360 species. To date, efforts to delineate supraspecific assemblages have been largely unsuccessful, and the only attempt to apply molecular sequence data dates back 16 years. Insights gleaned from that study, which used the ITS region and two partitions of the 26S nuclear rDNA, will be discussed, and new information pertinent to the systematics and biology of Phoradendron will be reviewed. The Viscaceae, why so successful? Clyde Calvin, University of California, Berkeley Carol A. Wilson, The University and Jepson Herbaria, University of California, Berkeley Keywords: Endophytic system, Epicortical roots, Epiparasite Mistletoe is the term used to describe aerial-branch parasites belonging to the order Santalales.

[email protected] Abstract – (Haustorium, haustor, holdfast, sinker: Illustrated glossary about parasitic plants and the issue of structural homology of host-parasite connection structures). The parasitic life form in plants is associated with the formation of an organ generically called haustorium, which is responsible for the connection between parasite and host. The great diversity of parasitic species - about 1% of living angiosperms - added to the diversity of potential hosts results in a multiplicity of structures, tissues and cell types peculiar to these interactions. However, it is frequent to observe that all this morpho-anatomical variety is approached under the use of few common terms and even with synonyms, but also with ambiguous terminology use and dubious or ontogenetically unproven homology. The use of publications originally written in other languages than Portuguese (i.e. English, mainly, Spanish, French, Italian, German), often being literally translated, dealing with false cognates and other linguistics influences have also caused some confusion. In order to promote a clearer and more precise use of terminology, in addition to performing a historical retrieval of original meanings, a compilation and restructuring of terms was carried out in the way they have been approached, in order to promote a better understanding of the nomenclature used.

Recently network theory has been applied to ecological networks, including interactions between plants that live in the canopy of other trees (e.g. mistletoes or vines). In this thesis, I explore plant-plant interactions in greater detail and I test for the first time, a predictive approach that maps unique biological traits across species interactions. In chapter two I used a novel predictive approach to investigate the topology of a mistletoe-host network and evaluate leaf trait similari ties between Lauranthaceaous mistletoes and host trees. Results showed support for negative co-occurrence patterns, web specialisation and strong links between species pairs. However, the deterministic model showed that the observed network topology could not predict network interactions when they were considered to be unique associations in the community.

  • Metapopulation Dynamics of the Mistletoe and Its Host in Savanna Areas with Different Fire Occurrence
    Metapopulation Dynamics of the Mistletoe and Its Host in Savanna Areas with Different Fire Occurrence Grazielle Sales Teodoro1*, Eduardo van den Berg2, Rafael Arruda3 1 Departamento de Botaˆnica, Instituto de Biologia, Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Campinas, Brasil, 2 Setor de Botaˆnica Sistema´tica, Departamento de Biologia, Universidade Federal de Lavras, Lavras, Brasil, 3 Instituto de Cieˆncias Naturais, Humanas e Sociais, Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso, Sinop, Brasil Abstract Mistletoes are aerial hemiparasitic plants which occupy patches of favorable habitat (host trees) surrounded by unfavorable habitat and may be possibly modeled as a metapopulation. A metapopulation is defined as a subdivided population that persists due to the balance between colonization and extinction in discrete habitat patches. Our aim was to evaluate the dynamics of the mistletoe Psittacanthus robustus and its host Vochysia thyrsoidea in three Brazilian savanna areas using a metapopulation approach. We also evaluated how the differences in terms of fire occurrence affected the dynamic of those populations (two areas burned during the study and one was fire protected). We monitored the populations at six-month intervals. P. robustus population structure and dynamics met the expected criteria for a metapopulation: i) the suitable habitats for the mistletoe occur in discrete patches; (ii) local populations went extinct during the study and (iii) colonization of previously non-occupied patches occurred. The ratio of occupied patches decreased in all areas with time. Local mistletoe populations went extinct due to two different causes: patch extinction in area with no fire and fire killing in the burned areas. In a burned area, the largest decrease of occupied patch ratios occurred due to a fire event that killed the parasites without, however, killing the host trees.
