Lysak, [email protected] DOI https://doi.org/10.12705/672.4 Abstract Thlaspideae is an Old World tribe of Brassicaceae centered in SW Asia. Thirty-seven of 42 species (ca. 88%) in 13 genera of the tribe were analyzed using nuclear ITS and chloroplast trnL-F markers in a family-wide context. Both single- marker and concatenated phylogenies corroborated Thlaspideae as a well-supported monophyletic clade. With the exception of polyphyletic Alliaria and Parlatoria and paraphyletic Thlaspi and Didymophysa, the remaining genera were monophyletic. Alliaria petiolata comprised diploid and hexaploid populations in two well-resolved clades. The non-weedy diploid and hexa- ploid populations are restricted to SW Asia, and together with diploid A. taurica (formerly P. taurica), formed a sister clade to well-resolved Sobolewskia (3 spp.) and P. rostrata (now treated as the new monospecific genus Lysakia) clades. By contrast, the European and North American weedy and invasive hexaploid A. petiolata populations clustered with the diploid P. caki- loidea. Polyphyletic Thlaspi formed two distinct clades easily distinguished morphologically, and two of its six species are segregated into the new genus Mummenhoffia. Elburzia is reduced to synonymy of Didymophysa, and the new combinations D. fenestrata, Lysakia rostrata, Mummenhoffia alliacea, and M. oliveri are proposed and a diagnostic key for determination of Thlaspideae genera is presented. Age estimations based only on calibration by the controversial fossil Thlaspi primeavum resulted in unrealistic old age estimates. Chromosome counts are reported for 16 species.

INTRODUCTION 2011; Mohammadin & al., 2017) have proposed that it might have been the cradle of the family. The age estimate of the The Brassicaceae (Cruciferae, or mustard family) include family is not fully settled because some (e.g., Beilstein & al., some 3980 species in 351 genera of 52 tribes (BrassiBase, 2017; 2010) suggested an Eocene origin (ca. 54 Ma), whereas most Kiefer & al., 2014). It is of a special interest because it includes other authors suggested a younger origin in the Late Oligocene, many vegetable crops (e.g., Brassica oleracea L., B. rapa L., with the major diversification ca. 25 Ma in the Miocene (e.g., Raphanus sativus L.), ornamentals (e.g., Arabis L., Aubrieta Franzke & al., 2009, 2011, 2016; Salariato & al., 2016; Guo & Adans., Erysimum L., Iberis L., Lunaria L.), condiments al., 2017; Lopez & al., 2017).

    Wild Crucifer Species as Sources of Traits Wild Crucifer Species as Sources of Agronomic Traits The following guide to the wild germplasm of Brassica and allied crops reviews the potential of wild crucifers, particularly members of the tribe Brassiceae, as sources of agronomic traits. In addition to traditional breeding methods, interspecific and intergeneric transfer of genes governing qualitative and quantitative characters from wild allies to cultivated forms will be facilitated with various in vitro methods, such as somatic cell genetics and recombinant DNA techniques (See Guide Part III). Examples of genetic variability in potential agronomic traits of germplasms of Brassica and related genera (Tribe Brassiceae) will be presented under 14 sections. Data will be presented for all species in the Family. CONTENTS 1.

Alongside 1080 most of non-native taxa, recorded in this study, previously recorded, the complete vascular flora of are casual garden escapes but three of them are the Park now consists of more than 1180 taxa and considered to be invasive plants in Croatia: Abutilon represents more than 20 % of the total Croatian theophrasti, Datura innoxia and Solidago gigantea. flora. Among the recorded taxa, five are endemic: In the upcoming period, special attention should be Onosma stellulata, Ophrys liburnica, Peltaria alliacea, given to S. gigantea because of its possible spread Thymus bracteosus and Vincetoxicum hirundinaria in habitats along the river banks. ssp. adriaticum. Five taxa are considered as Keywords: endemic plant species, garden escapes, invasive plants, river of Krka, threatened plants Milović, M.

VOL. 23 No 1 101–145 ZAGREB June 30, 2014 original scientific paper / izvorni znanstveni rad THE URBAN FLORA OF THE CITY OF MOSTAR (BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA) Semir Maslo Primary School, Lundåkerskola, Södra Storgatan 45, 332 33 Gislaved Sweden (e-mail: [email protected]) Maslo, S.: The urban flora of the city of Mostar (Bosnia and Herzegovina). Nat. Croat., Vol. 23, No. 1, 101–145, 2014, Zagreb. In this paper, an attempt is made for the first time to present a complete list of the vascular flora of the urban area of Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina. A total of 965 plant taxa were collected during different seasons of the year and from various biotopes within the city. The most common families are Asteraceae s.l. (11.09%), Poaceae (10.67%) and Fabaceae (7.25%), while therophytes (38.86%) are the most abundant life form. The analysis of the urban flora of the city of Mostar showed that Mediterranean plants predominate (27.00%). Native species accounted for 84.35 % of the total number of taxa. The significant proportion of Mediterranean plants and the relatively high proportion therophytes indicate that the flora of Mostar has developed under the influence of the Mediterranean climate and a signifi- cant anthropogenic influence. The percentage contribution of endemics (2.80%) is also important.
