  • Phylogenetic Reconstruction of the Evolution of Stylar Polymorphisms in Narcissus (Amaryllidaceae)1
    American Journal of Botany 91(7): 1007±1021. 2004. INVITED SPECIAL PAPER PHYLOGENETIC RECONSTRUCTION OF THE EVOLUTION OF STYLAR POLYMORPHISMS IN NARCISSUS (AMARYLLIDACEAE)1 SEAN W. G RAHAM2,4 AND SPENCER C. H. BARRETT3 2UBC Botanical Garden and Centre for Plant Research, 6804 SW Marine Drive, The University of British Columbia, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6T 1Z4; and 3Department of Botany, University of Toronto, 25 Willcocks Street, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5S 3B2 We investigated the origin of stylar polymorphisms in Narcissus, which possesses a remarkable range of stylar conditions and diverse types of ¯oral morphology and pollination biology. Reconstruction of evolutionary change was complicated by incomplete resolution of trees inferred from two rapidly evolving chloroplast regions, but we bracketed reconstructions expected on the fully resolved plastid- based tree by considering all possible resolutions of polytomies on the shortest trees. Stigma-height dimorphism likely arose on several occasions in Narcissus and persisted across multiple speciation events. As proposed in published models, this rare type of stylar polymorphism is ancestral to distyly. While there is no evidence in Narcissus that dimorphism preceded tristyly, a rapid transition between them may explain the lack of a phylogenetic footprint for this evolutionary sequence. The single instances of distyly and tristyly in Narcissus albimarginatus and N. triandrus, respectively, are clearly not homologous, an evolutionary convergence unique to Amaryllidaceae. Floral morphology was likely an important trigger for the evolution of stylar polymorphisms: Concentrated-changes tests indicate that a long, narrow ¯oral tube may have been associated with the emergence of stigma-height dimorphism and that this type of tube, in combination with a deep corona, likely promoted, or at least was associated with, the parallel origins of heterostyly.

Address for correspondence: Nicolás García, [email protected] DOI https://doi.org/10.1002/tax.12062 Abstract A robust generic classification for Amaryllidaceae has remained elusive mainly due to the lack of unequivocal diagnostic characters, a consequence of highly canalized variation and a deeply reticulated evolutionary history. A consensus classification is pro- posed here, based on recent molecular phylogenetic studies, morphological and cytogenetic variation, and accounting for secondary criteria of classification, such as nomenclatural stability. Using the latest sutribal classification of Hippeastreae (Hippeastrinae and Traubiinae) as a foundation, we propose the recognition of six genera, namely Eremolirion gen. nov., Hippeastrum, Phycella s.l., Rhodolirium s.str., Traubia, and Zephyranthes s.l. A subgeneric classification is suggested for Hippeastrum and Zephyranthes to denote putative subclades.

INTRODUCTION In this article, the literature for the past twelve or so years is recorded on the anatomy of Liliaceae, AmarylIidaceae and Iridaceae and the smaller, related families, Alliaceae, Haemodoraceae, Hypoxidaceae, Ruscaceae, Smilacaceae and Trilliaceae. Subjects covered range from embryology, vegetative and floral anatomy to seed anatomy. A format is used in which references are arranged alphabetically, numbered and annotated, so that the reader can rapidly obtain an idea of the range and contents of papers on subjects of particular interest to him. The main research trends have been identified, classified, and check lists compiled for the major headings. Current systematic anatomy on the 'Anatomy of the Monocotyledons' series is reported. Comment is made on areas of research which might prove to be of future significance.

    I. Marques, A. Rosselló-Graell & D. Draper Narcissus ×perezlarae (Amaryllidaceae) new for the Portuguese flora Abstract Marques, I., Rosselló-Graell, A., Drape, D.: Narcissus ×perezlarae (Amaryllidaceae) new taxon for the Portuguese flora. — Fl Medit. 15: 211-217. 2005. — ISSN 1120-4052. Narcissus ×perezlarae Font Quer is a natural hybrid between N. cavanillesii A. Barra & G. López and N. serotinus L, two autumnal flowering geophytes. Although scarce populations had been found in Spain since 1882, in the areas where the distribution of the two parental species overlaps, this is the first report of this taxon in Portugal. N. ×perezlarae was found in the con- text of conservation projects regarding the effects of the Alqueva dam in vascular plants, espe- cially on N. cavanillesii, a species considered as Critically Endangered (CR) in Portugal. Its his- tory, morphology, ecology and distribution is here illustrated as well as a brief discussion con- cerning the evolutionary implications of the presence of N. ×perezlarae in Portugal. Introduction Narcissus is considered a genus endemic to the Mediterranean region, presenting its highest diversity in the Iberian Peninsula. There is no global consensus concerning the number of species included in this genus but most authors agree in a number between 30 and 70 species (Fernandes 1975; Blanchard 1990; Barrett et al. 1996; Dobson et al. 1997). A recent review reports a number of 43 species endemic to the Iberian Peninsula (Moreno Saiz & Sainz Ollero 1992). This number could even rise if we considered the frequency and importance of natural hybridization in this genus (Fernandes 1951).

Phylogenetic hypotheses based on chloroplast data have 26 provided a backbone for the genus but a detailed phylogenetic framework is still 27 lacking. To fill this gap, we present a phylogenetic study of the genus using five 28 markers from three genomes: ndhF and matK (chloroplast DNA), cob and atpA 29 (mitochondrial DNA), and ITS (nuclear ribosomal DNA).
