    Acta Botanica Brasilica doi: 10.1590/0102-33062020abb0051 Toward a phylogenetic reclassification of the subfamily Ambavioideae (Annonaceae): establishment of a new subfamily and a new tribe Tanawat Chaowasku1 Received: February 14, 2020 Accepted: June 12, 2020 . ABSTRACT A molecular phylogeny of the subfamily Ambavioideae (Annonaceae) was reconstructed using up to eight plastid DNA regions (matK, ndhF, and rbcL exons; trnL intron; atpB-rbcL, psbA-trnH, trnL-trnF, and trnS-trnG intergenic spacers). The results indicate that the subfamily is not monophyletic, with the monotypic genus Meiocarpidium resolved as the second diverging lineage of Annonaceae after Anaxagorea (the only genus of Anaxagoreoideae) and as the sister group of a large clade consisting of the rest of Annonaceae. Consequently, a new subfamily, Meiocarpidioideae, is established to accommodate the enigmatic African genus Meiocarpidium. In addition, the subfamily Ambavioideae is redefined to contain two major clades formally recognized as two tribes. The tribe Tetramerantheae consisting of only Tetrameranthus is enlarged to include Ambavia, Cleistopholis, and Mezzettia; and Canangeae, a new tribe comprising Cananga, Cyathocalyx, Drepananthus, and Lettowianthus, are erected. The two tribes are principally distinguishable from each other by differences in monoploid chromosome number, branching architecture, and average pollen size (monads). New relationships were retrieved within Tetramerantheae, with Mezzettia as the sister group of a clade containing Ambavia and Cleistopholis. Keywords: Annonaceae, Ambavioideae, Meiocarpidium, molecular phylogeny, systematics, taxonomy et al. 2019). Every subfamily received unequivocally Introduction and consistently strong molecular support except the subfamily Ambavioideae, which is composed of nine Annonaceae, a pantropical family of flowering plants genera: Ambavia, Cananga, Cleistopholis, Cyathocalyx, prominent in lowland rainforests, consist of 110 genera Drepananthus, Lettowianthus, Meiocarpidium, Mezzettia, (Guo et al.

Die Blüten bestehen aus drei Kelch- und Kronblättern, sind länglich und von grüngelber Farbe. Sie verströmen einen aasartigen Geruch und locken damit Fliegen zur Bestäubung an. Die Frucht des Guanábana ist eigentlich eine große Beere. Sie wird bis zu 40 Zentimeter lang und bis zu 4 Kilogramm schwer. In dem weichen, weißen Fruchtfleisch sitzen große, schwarze (giftige) Samen. Die Fruchthülle ist mit weichen Stacheln besetzt, welche die Überreste des weiblichen Geschlechtsapparates bilden.

Bot. Fennici 44 (Supplement A): 79–132. The bark anatomy of 32 Neotropical genera of Annonaceae was studied. A family description based on Neotropical genera and a discussion of individual bark compo- nents are presented. Selected character states at the family and genus levels are sur- veyed for identification purposes. This is followed by a discussion on the taxonomical and phylogenetic relevance of bark characters according to a phylogram in preparation based on molecular characters. Although the value of many bark anatomical characters turned out to be insignificant in systematic studies of the family, some features lend support to recent phylogenetic results based on morphological and molecular data sets. The taxonomically most informative features of the bark anatomy are sclerification of phellem cells, shape of fibre groups and occurrence of crystals in bark components. Key words: anatomy, Annonaceae, bark, periderm, phloem, phylogeny, rhytidome, taxonomy Introduction collections and the development of some novel methods a multidisciplinary programme on Anno- Woody members of the Annonaceae are one of naceae was embarked on in 1983 at the Univer- the most species-rich components in the tropi- sity of Utrecht.

  • Araceae), with P
    Taxonomic revision of the threatened African genus Pseudohydrosme Engl. (Araceae), with P. ebo, a new, critically endangered species from Ebo, Cameroon Martin Cheek1, Barthélemy Tchiengué2 and Xander van der Burgt3 1 Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, Richmond, UK 2 Institute of Agronomic Research and Development, Herbier National Camerounais, Yaoundé, Centrale, Cameroon 3 Identification & Naming, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, Richmond, Surrey, UK ABSTRACT This is the first revision in more than 100 years of the African genus Pseudohydrosme, formerly considered endemic to Gabon. Closely related to Anchomanes, Pseudohydrosme is distinct from Anchomanes because of its 2-3-locular ovary (vs. unilocular), peduncle concealed by cataphylls at anthesis and far shorter than the spathe (vs. exposed, far exceeding the spathe), stipitate fruits and viviparous (asexually reproductive) roots (vs. sessile, roots non-viviparous), lack of laticifers (vs. laticifers present) and differences in spadix: spathe proportions and presentation. However, it is possible that a well sampled molecular phylogenetic analysis might show that one of these genera is nested inside the other. In this case the synonymisation of Pseudohydrosme will be required. Three species, one new to science, are recognised, in two sections. Although doubt has previously been cast on the value of recognising Pseudohydrosme buettneri, of Gabon, it is here accepted and maintained as a distinct species in the monotypic section, Zyganthera. However, it is considered to be probably globally extinct. Pseudohydrosme gabunensis, type species of the genus, also Gabonese but probably extending to Congo, is maintained in Sect.

  • Unusual Metabolites from Some Tanzanian Indigenous Plant Species*
    Pure Appl. Chem., Vol. 77, No. 11, pp. 1943–1955, 2005. DOI: 10.1351/pac200577111943 © 2005 IUPAC Unusual metabolites from some Tanzanian indigenous plant species* Mayunga H. H. Nkunya Department of Chemistry, University of Dar es Salaam, P.O. Box 35061, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania Abstract: In this paper, the chemistry of some unusual natural products that were isolated from various Tanzanian indigenous plant species during the past 20 years is reviewed. Among the compounds covered in this review are cyclohexane epoxides; heptane derivatives; oxygenated pyrenes; phenanthrene derivatives; flavonoids with uncommon structural frame- works; mono-, bis-, and dimeric prenylated indoles; and variously substituted mono-, sesqui-, and diterpenoids. Keywords: Heptane derivatives; cyclohexane epoxides; flavonoids; indoles; phenanthrenes; terpenoids; antimalarial activities; Uvaria species; Annonaceae species. INTRODUCTION Tanzania is endowed with a great abundance of floral diversity, which is estimated to constitute about 10 000 vascular plant species, of which at least 25 % are considered to be indigenous to the country and among them, about 1200 species so far have been reported to occur exclusively in Tanzania [1]. Although some of the plant species are used as herbal remedies and for other applications, not many studies have been carried out to unravel the chemical constituents of some of the Tanzania plant species, particularly those that are considered to be restricted to this country, some of which have been taxo- nomically described only recently [2–6]. Therefore, in 1984, we initiated chemical investigations for novel and/or biologically active natural products from Tanzanian plant species that are either deployed in traditional medicines, used as natural insecticides, rare species, or those that are threatened with ex- tinction due to among others, human developmental activities.
