Extensive past hybridization is supposed for the subgenus, but recent hybridization was evidenced only in few cases. The subgenus attracts the attention of botanists already for more than a century. Therefore the species diversity is largely examined and the taxonomy of the subgenus is well elaborated, although several contradictory taxonomic concepts exist. However the relationships among the species are unknown and haven’t been studied yet. The investigation of these relationships from a phylogenetic perspective using molecular approaches was the main aim of the presented thesis. Basic species (both diploid and polyploid), representing morphologically unique taxa, that are supposed to be the basic evolutionary units of the subgenus were studied. The sequences of two intergenic spacers of the cpDNA (trnT-trnL and trnV-ndhC) and the external transcribed spacer of the nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA ETS) were analyzed. Moreover, three new low-copy nuclear markers with higher variability than nrDNA and cpDNA markers were developed and their suitability for phylogenetic studies in Hieracium s. str. was evaluated. One of these, a part of the gene coding for squalene synthase (sqs) was included to the study as the second nuclear marker. Based on ETS, two previously unrecognized major evolutionary lineages were found, that correlated well with the geographic origin and distribution of the species. The observed pattern in genome size variation was in high correlation with this phylogenetic pattern. On the other hand, the cpDNA and sqs phylogenies were incongruent with the ETS, in respect of these major groups. However, they reflected well the subgroups identified within the major ETS clades. This pattern together with the low interspecific variability of the ETS indicates that Hieracium s. str. is a group with rather recent speciation. The level of interspecific hybridization found greatly exceeded the previous expectations: almost half of the studied accessions was evidenced to be of hybrid origin. Moreover, hybrid origin was inferred not only for the polyploids, but it concerned diploids as well. Genetic material representing most probably already extinct parental lineages was identified in some of the hybrid accessions. Hybridization in the subgenus is probably even more abundant as described above, but its detection was obscured by population level (genetic drift, incomplete lineage sorting) or intragenomic (concerted evolution) processes. 3 Introduction Driving forces of plant evolution Fundamental sources of variation in living organisms are associated with structural changes in genetic material – mutations. Due to these changes, new alleles related to novel functional traits arise in populations. Hence, mutations together with gene flow (migration), genetic drift and natural selection are acting as engines of speciation, the process of novel species formation. However, in the plant kingdom, speciation is shaped by additional processes more extensively than in other groups of organisms. These factors include hybridization, polyploidization and apomixis. Hybridization Hybridization is defined as crossing between individuals belonging to different species or genetically divergent populations within a species (Soltis & Soltis 2009). Despite recognised already by Linné (e.g. Rieseberg 1997), the role of hybridization in plant evolution was underestimated for a long time (Arnold 1997). Nowadays is already known that hybridization may have various evolutionary consequences including the increase of intraspecific genetic diversity, origin of genetic adaptation as well as origin of new ecotypes or species (Rieseberg 1997). Hybridization in higher plants is quite widespread. About 25% of all plant species are known to hybridize at least with one other species. This number may be underestimated, because hybrid origin is often challenging to prove (Mallet 2007). Interspecific hybridization introduces

    Introduction The tribe Cichoriae Lam. & DC. (syn. Lactuceae Cass.) represents one the most studied groups of Asteraceae family especially thanks to several genera such as Crepis L., Hieracium L., Pilosella Hill. or Taraxacum Wigg. and economically important genera as Lactuca. Cichoriaea is well morphologically and antomically defined (occurrence of milky latex and homogamous capitula with 5-dentate, lingulate flowers have been constantly respected characters since the time of its description; Tournefort 1964). Taxonomic situation inside of the tribe is more complicated, i.e. that the majority of above mentioned genera are generally well known because of polyploidy, hybridisation and apomixis frequently resulting in highly intricated taxonomic classifications. The aim of a taxonomic treatment is to mirror real situation in nature usually expressed by numerous "microspecies" representing particular apomictic lineages 1. Nevertheless, system of these complex taxonomic treatments can hardly be natural as hybridisation (even an ancient one) results in reticulate evolution. Hieracium s. l. Formal genus Hieracium sensu lato has recently been more frequently treated as two separete genera (Hieracium and Pilosella ; Sell & West 1975, Bräutigam & Greuter 2007), which is why genus ranks Hieracium and Pilosella are used separately in further text. Genera Hieracium and Pilosella comprise perennial herbs with 1 to numerous stems (foliaged or leafless) terminated by 1 to numerous capitula. Leaves are shaped from entire to deeply dentate or lobed. Involucres are formed by several irregularly imbricate rows of linear to lanceolate bracts. Individual ligules are usually yellow (sometimes with a red stripe on the outer face or rarely orange, reddish, green or white). Achenes are covered in 10 to 13 ribs of narrowly obconical shape (never beaked) carrying 1 or 2-rowed pappus (e.g.

  • Polyploidy19 Program.Pdf
    Preface Yves Van de Peer The study of polyploidy dates back more than 100 years to the work of biologists such as Hugo de Vries and G. Ledyard Stebbins Jr. It has since then been realized that polyploidy is widespread and commonplace in plants. Although polyploidy is much rarer in animals, there are also numerous cases of currently polyploid insects, fishes, amphibians and reptiles. For a long time, ancient polyploidy events, dating back millions of years, were much less well documented and it was not until the advent of genomic technologies that conclusive evidence of ancient whole genome duplications (WGD) events became available and we now have evidence for tens, or even hundreds, of ancient WGD events. Explanations of the short-term success of polyploids are usually centered on the effects of genomic changes and increased genetic variation, which are mediated by changes in gene expression and epigenetic remodeling. Increased genetic variation, together with the direct cytogenetic conse- quences of genome doubling, can potentially affect the morphology and physiology of newly formed polyploids and could lead to alterations of ecologically and envi- ronmentally suitable conditions. For instance, it has repeatedly been proposed that polyploids have increased environmental robustness than do diploids, potentially leading to evolutionary advantages during periods of environmental turmoil. More- over, polyploidy has also sometimes been linked with higher diversification rates. Long(er)-term implications of WGD might be evolutionary innovation and increase in biological complexity by the biased retention of regulatory and developmental genes, which, given time, might diversify in function or cause rewiring of gene regulatory networks.
