Dezember des vergangenen Jahres 2005 feierte Prof. Dr. Ger- hard GOTTSBERGER, Leiter der Abteilung fuÈ r Systematische Botanik und OÈ kologie und des Botanischen Gartens der UniversitaÈt Ulm, seinen 65. Geburtstag. Dies bedeutet zugleich, daû seine Amtszeit als ordentlicher Professor an der UniversitaÈt Ulm mit dem Ablauf des Wintersemesters 2005/6, also am 31. MaÈrz dieses Jahres endet, da es den Gesetzgebern un- seres Landes sinnvoll erscheint, ordentliche Professoren nach dem Errei- chen des 65. Lebensjahres nach Hause zu schicken. Heute haben sich nun zahlreiche, oft von weither angereiste Kollegen, Freunde und SchuÈ ler und sogar einer seiner akademischen Lehrer zu einem Abschiedskolloquium versammelt. Sie wollen mit der Darstellung von Ergebnissen und Proble- men der BluÈ tenbiologie die im Zeitalter der BiodioversitaÈtsforschung weitreichende Bedeutung dieses Forschungsgebietes unterstreichen, das auch den Mittelpunkt der ForschungstaÈtigkeit von Herrn GOTTSBERGER bildet. Zahl und Rang der zu diesem Anlass angereisten GaÈste, denen ein Willkommensgruû und unser Dank gilt, sind zugleich Ausdruck der Wert- schaÈtzung fuÈ r den Kollegen GOTTSBERGER. Es ist bei Gelegenheiten wie dieser uÈ blich, die wichtigsten Lebensda- ten und wissenschaftlichen Leistungen des so Gefeierten in einem kurzen Abriss darzustellen. Das wichtigste Ereignis, seinen Geburtstag, hatten wir bereits genannt. Nach dem Schulbesuch (1947±1959) und der Reife- pruÈ fung am Bundesrealgymnasium in Judenburg, studierte Herr GOTTS- BERGER von 1959 bis 1966 an der Karl-Franzens-UniversitaÈt in Graz. Unter seinen Lehrern sind besonders zu nennen: F. J. WIDDER,F.EHRENDORFER, O. HAÈ RTEL,F.BUXBAUM,E.REISINGER,R.SCHUSTER und K. UMRATH. An der UniversitaÈt Graz fand am 15.7.1966 auch seine Promotion zum Doktor der Philosophie statt. In seiner Doktorarbeit, die unter der Anleitung von Prof. *) Em. Prof. Dr. Focko WEBERLING, University of Ulm, Albert-Einstein-Allee 11, D-89081 Ulm, Germany, Europe; e-mail: [email protected] h:/3D/Phyton/Phyton 46-2/Gottsberger Auftrags-Nr.: 320056 Seite 164 164 Dr.J.F.WIDDER stand, befasste sich Herr GOTTSBERGER mit der Systematik, Biologie und OÈ kologie der Myxomyceten ± einem bis dahin wenig be- tretenen Neuland. Seine Untersuchungen erbrachten neue Beobachtungen uÈ ber KeimungsverhaÈltnisse der Sporen, die Kopulation von Gameten bzw. AmoÈben und die FruchtkoÈrperbildung (vgl. dazu die beigefuÈ gte Liste der Publikationen). Erstmals konnten fuÈ r die Steiermark 33 Arten neu nach- gewiesen werden, dazu wurde eine bisher unbekannte, neue Art beschrie- ben. SpaÈter ergaÈnzte Herr GOTTSBERGER diese Arbeit noch durch elek- tronenmikroskopische Untersuchungen, durch welche die potentiell ani- sokonte Begeiûelung und die Pellicula-Struktur festgestellt wurden. SpaÈ- ter, in Brasilien, kehrte er nochmals zu Arbeiten an Myxomyceten zuruÈck und konnte in vergleichenden Untersuchungen tropischer LebensraÈume eine FuÈ lle neuer Daten uÈ ber mikrooÈkologische AnspruÈ che, Sub- stratbeziehungen und Entwicklungsrhythmus von Myxomyceten erbrin- gen. Bis heute stehen noch viele Aufsammlungen und Daten zur weiteren Bearbeitung an, dazu kommen noch die Ergebnisse spaÈterer Un- tersuchungen in Mitteleuropa. Mit einer Untersuchung uÈ ber den ge- faÈhrlichen Blattrost des Kaffees und seinen Entwicklungszyklus, seine EinbuÈ rgerung in Brasilien und die MoÈglichkeiten seiner BekaÈmpfung lie- ferte er auch einen Beitrag zur Kenntnis der hoÈheren Pilze. Vom 1.2. bis 30.6.1965 war Herr GOTTSBERGER als wiss. Assistent am Institut fuÈ r Systematische Botanik der UniversitaÈt Graz taÈtig. WaÈhrend dieser Zeit befasste er sich unter Anleitung von Prof. Dr. F. EHRENDORFER mit der Zytotaxonomie von Angiospermen. Er schied dann jedoch aus dieser TaÈtigkeit aus, um durch raschere Fertigstellung seiner Doktorarbeit ein brasilianisches Forschungsstipendium annehmen zu koÈnnen. Ab August 1966 arbeitete er dann an einem Forschungsauftrag als Stipendiat der UniversitaÈt von SaÄo Paulo/Brasilien. Von nun an lag das Schwergewicht seiner wissenschaftlichen Arbeit im Bereich der in den Tropen noch weitgehend unaufgeklaÈrten BluÈ ten- und Reproduktions- biologie der Angiospermen. Im Vordergrund standen dabei Fragen der BestaÈubungsbiologie neotropischer HolzgewaÈchse, darunter auch der An- nonaceen. Weitere ForschungsauftraÈge der UniversitaÈt SaÄo Paulo und des Brasilianischen Forschungsrates sicherten die FortfuÈ hrung der Studien in den brasilianischen Tropen. Am 28.6.1968 heiratete Herr GOTTSBERGER Frau Ilse SILBERBAUER. Aus dieser Ehe gingen nicht nur drei Kinder, Richard Alexander (1969), Bri- gitte (1971) und Rudolf (1976) hervor, sie bot auch die Basis fuÈ r eine jahr- zehntelange an wissenschaftlichen Ergebnissen reiche Zusammenarbeit. Im selben Jahr wurde durch die Aufnahme von Herrn GOTTSBERGER als ¹Professor Assistente Dr.`` in den LehrkoÈrper der Faculdade de CieÃncia MeÂdicas e BioloÂgicas (die spaÈtere Universidade Estadual Paulista) auch die wirtschaftliche Grundlage fuÈ r wissenschaftliche TaÈtigkeit gefestigt h:/3D/Phyton/Phyton 46-2/Gottsberger Auftrags-Nr.: 320056 Seite 165 165 Fig. 1. Gerhard GOTTSBERGER im Jahre 2006. (4.11.1968). WaÈhrend zweier Amtsperioden, von 1970 bis 1972 und von 1973 bis 1974, insgesamt 4 Jahre, leitete er das Botanische Department. Den wissenschaftlichen Kontakt mit OÈ sterreich konnte Herr GOTTS- BERGER weiterhin durch Vortrags- und Forschungsaufenthalte und Pub- likationen im deutschen Sprachraum aufrecht erhalten. Wichtig waren dabei auch ein Forschungsauftrag an der UniversitaÈt Nijmegen und der Gedankenaustausch mit L. VAN DER PIJL und H.-F. LINSKENS. Auf Einla- dung von Prof. Dr. F. EHRENDORFER, dem Vorstand des Botanischen In- stitutes der UniversitaÈt Wien, und nach BefuÈ rwortung durch die Habilita- tionskommission, konnte er sich dort am 14.12.1972 fuÈ r das Fach Syste- matische Botanik habilitieren. Am 9.4.1972 erfolgte in Botucatu die Ernennung zum ¹Professor Livre-Docente`` und am 1.12.1980 zum Professor Adjunto¹ (~ C 3). WaÈh- rend der TaÈtigkeit in Botucatu gehoÈrte Herr GOTTSBERGER fast ohne Un- terbrechung verschiedenen akademischen Gremien an. Als Kurator leitete er bis 1979 das von ihm 1971 begruÈ ndete Herbarium, von 1977 bis 1979 war er Direktor des Botanischen Gartens. Andererseits fuÈ hrten ihn Leh- rauftraÈge nach Wien (1974, 1976, 1980) und Gastprofessuren nach Rio de Janeiro und VitoÂria, Espirito Santo (Sept. 1979). Seit 1979 ist er habili- tierter Professor fuÈ r das Fach ¹BluÈ tenbiologie`` des Postgraduationskurses h:/3D/Phyton/Phyton 46-2/Gottsberger Auftrags-Nr.: 320056 Seite 166 166 fuÈ r Botanik am Nationalen Forschungsinstitut fuÈ r Amazonien (INPA) und an der UniversitaÈt von Amazonas in Manaus. Nach Angeboten dreier bra- silianischer UniversitaÈten und eines Forschungsinstitutes nahm er 1981 die Stelle eines ¹Professor Adjunto`` an der FederaluniversitaÈt in SaÄo Luis, Bundesstaat MaranhaÄo an, wo er bis Februar 1983 fuÈ r die Ausbildung der Biologiestudenten im Fach Systematik zustaÈndig war. Man muss diese lange Liste von TaÈtigkeiten an verschiedenen Orten kennen, um zu ver- stehen, dass sich aus diesen Wechseln ein hohes Maû an Erfahrungen uÈ ber die Vegetation und OÈ kologie der betreffenden Gebiete ergab. Mit dem Ruf auf die C3-Professur fuÈ r Systematische Botanik an der Justus Liebig-UniversitaÈt Gieûen erfolgte 1983 die RuÈ ckkehr nach Mitte- leuropa. Er uÈ bernahm dort auch die Leitung des Botanischen Gartens und baute ein Herbarium mit Schwerpunkt Tropen auf. Ab Oktober 1991 war er auûerdem geschaÈftsfuÈ hrender Direktor des Botanischen Institutes. Am 1. September 1993 folgte er dem Ruf auf die Professur fuÈ r Spezielle Bota- nik an der UniversitaÈt Ulm. Mit der Leitung der Abt. Systematische Bo- tanik und OÈ kologie ist durch Personalunion auch die Leitung des Bota- nischen Gartens verbunden. Als Beauftragter der UniversitaÈt uÈ bernahm er auch die FederfuÈ hrung in dem seit 1987 bestehenden DAAD-Austausch- programm der Universidad de San Jose in Costa Rica. Daran schlossen sich verschiedene weitere Auslandsbeziehungen und Austauschpro- gramme in Mittel- und SuÈ damerika

  • The Vegetation of Robinson Crusoe Island (Isla Masatierra), Juan
    The Vegetation ofRobinson Crusoe Island (Isla Masatierra), Juan Fernandez Archipelago, Chile1 Josef Greimler,2,3 Patricio Lopez 5., 4 Tod F. Stuessy, 2and Thomas Dirnbiick5 Abstract: Robinson Crusoe Island of the Juan Fernandez Archipelago, as is the case with many oceanic islands, has experienced strong human disturbances through exploitation ofresources and introduction of alien biota. To understand these impacts and for purposes of diversity and resource management, an accu­ rate assessment of the composition and structure of plant communities was made. We analyzed the vegetation with 106 releves (vegetation records) and subsequent Twinspan ordination and produced a detailed colored map at 1: 30,000. The resultant map units are (1) endemic upper montane forest, (2) endemic lower montane forest, (3) Ugni molinae shrubland, (4) Rubus ulmifolius­ Aristotelia chilensis shrubland, (5) fern assemblages, (6) Libertia chilensis assem­ blage, (7) Acaena argentea assemblage, (8) native grassland, (9) weed assemblages, (10) tall ruderals, and (11) cultivated Eucalyptus, Cupressus, and Pinus. Mosaic patterns consisting of several communities are recognized as mixed units: (12) combined upper and lower montane endemic forest with aliens, (13) scattered native vegetation among rocks at higher elevations, (14) scattered grassland and weeds among rocks at lower elevations, and (15) grassland with Acaena argentea. Two categories are included that are not vegetation units: (16) rocks and eroded areas, and (17) settlement and airfield. Endemic forests at lower elevations and in drier zones of the island are under strong pressure from three woody species, Aristotelia chilensis, Rubus ulmifolius, and Ugni molinae. The latter invades native forests by ascending dry slopes and ridges.

A major constituent of these extracts, polygodial, was shown to be stored within specialised idioblastic structures scattered throughout the mesophyll, and characterised by distinctive size and shape, and a thickened wall. The contents of these cells were sampled directly, analysed and compared with the composition of extracts derived from ground, dry whole leaf. This result was supported by spectroscopic analysis of undisturbed oil cells in whole leaf tissue. In a two year field trial, the progressive accumulation of a number of leaf extract constituents (linalool, cubebene, caryophyllene, germacrene D, bicyclogermacrene, cadina-1,4 - diene, aristolone and polygodial) during the growth flush was followed by a slow decline during the subsequent dormant season.

  • Well-Known Plants in Each Angiosperm Order
    Well-known plants in each angiosperm order This list is generally from least evolved (most ancient) to most evolved (most modern). (I’m not sure if this applies for Eudicots; I’m listing them in the same order as APG II.) The first few plants are mostly primitive pond and aquarium plants. Next is Illicium (anise tree) from Austrobaileyales, then the magnoliids (Canellales thru Piperales), then monocots (Acorales through Zingiberales), and finally eudicots (Buxales through Dipsacales). The plants before the eudicots in this list are considered basal angiosperms. This list focuses only on angiosperms and does not look at earlier plants such as mosses, ferns, and conifers. Basal angiosperms – mostly aquatic plants Unplaced in order, placed in Amborellaceae family • Amborella trichopoda – one of the most ancient flowering plants Unplaced in order, placed in Nymphaeaceae family • Water lily • Cabomba (fanwort) • Brasenia (watershield) Ceratophyllales • Hornwort Austrobaileyales • Illicium (anise tree, star anise) Basal angiosperms - magnoliids Canellales • Drimys (winter's bark) • Tasmanian pepper Laurales • Bay laurel • Cinnamon • Avocado • Sassafras • Camphor tree • Calycanthus (sweetshrub, spicebush) • Lindera (spicebush, Benjamin bush) Magnoliales • Custard-apple • Pawpaw • guanábana (soursop) • Sugar-apple or sweetsop • Cherimoya • Magnolia • Tuliptree • Michelia • Nutmeg • Clove Piperales • Black pepper • Kava • Lizard’s tail • Aristolochia (birthwort, pipevine, Dutchman's pipe) • Asarum (wild ginger) Basal angiosperms - monocots Acorales

  • Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
    Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page. Basal Angiosperms (ANITA grade) Amborellales Amborellaceae, sole family, the earliest branch of flowering plants, a shrub native to New Caledonia – Amborella Nymphaeales Hydatellaceae – aquatics from Australasia, previously classified as a grass Cabombaceae (water shield – Brasenia, fanwort – Cabomba) Nymphaeaceae (water lilies – Nymphaea; pond lilies – Nuphar) Austrobaileyales Schisandraceae (wild sarsaparilla, star vine – Schisandra; Japanese

  • Reconstructing the Basal Angiosperm Phylogeny: Evaluating Information Content of Mitochondrial Genes
    55 (4) • November 2006: 837–856 Qiu & al. • Basal angiosperm phylogeny Reconstructing the basal angiosperm phylogeny: evaluating information content of mitochondrial genes Yin-Long Qiu1, Libo Li, Tory A. Hendry, Ruiqi Li, David W. Taylor, Michael J. Issa, Alexander J. Ronen, Mona L. Vekaria & Adam M. White 1Department of Ecology & Evolutionary Biology, The University Herbarium, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109-1048, U.S.A. [email protected] (author for correspondence). Three mitochondrial (atp1, matR, nad5), four chloroplast (atpB, matK, rbcL, rpoC2), and one nuclear (18S) genes from 162 seed plants, representing all major lineages of gymnosperms and angiosperms, were analyzed together in a supermatrix or in various partitions using likelihood and parsimony methods. The results show that Amborella + Nymphaeales together constitute the first diverging lineage of angiosperms, and that the topology of Amborella alone being sister to all other angiosperms likely represents a local long branch attrac- tion artifact. The monophyly of magnoliids, as well as sister relationships between Magnoliales and Laurales, and between Canellales and Piperales, are all strongly supported. The sister relationship to eudicots of Ceratophyllum is not strongly supported by this study; instead a placement of the genus with Chloranthaceae receives moderate support in the mitochondrial gene analyses. Relationships among magnoliids, monocots, and eudicots remain unresolved. Direct comparisons of analytic results from several data partitions with or without RNA editing sites show that in multigene analyses, RNA editing has no effect on well supported rela- tionships, but minor effect on weakly supported ones. Finally, comparisons of results from separate analyses of mitochondrial and chloroplast genes demonstrate that mitochondrial genes, with overall slower rates of sub- stitution than chloroplast genes, are informative phylogenetic markers, and are particularly suitable for resolv- ing deep relationships.

Despite the com- plex floral structure of the Asclepiadoideae, self-pollination is known for the genera Vincetoxicum WOLF and Tylophora R. BR., highly derived gen- era of the tribe Asclepiadeae. The hypothesis that self-pollination is an important prerequisite for the invasive character of some Vincetoxicum species in USA and Canada has been put forward (LUMER & YOST 1995). In addition, indigenous herbivores probably avoid Vincetoxicum for its alka- loids, which are absent from other American Asclepiadoideae. Sapro- myiophily is the most frequent mode of pollination, and has been evolved at least three times independently in Periplocoideae, Asclepiadoideae- Ceropegieae and Asclepiadoideae-Asclepiadeae-Gonolobinae. The compo- sition of various scent bouquets associated with sapromyiophily has been analyzed and four different main compositions have been identified (JÜR- GENS & al. 2006).

This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract A common mode of speciation in oceanic populations of D. confertifolia and the continental species islands is by anagenesis, wherein an immigrant arrives and D. winteri and D. andina, and to test probable migration through time transforms by mutation, recombination, and routes between the major islands. Population genetic drift into a morphologically and genetically distinct spe- analyses were conducted using AFLPs and nuclear cies, with the new species accumulating a high level of microsatellites of 421 individuals from 42 populations genetic diversity. We investigate speciation in Drimys from the Juan Ferna´ndez islands and the continent. Drimys confertifolia, endemic to the two major islands of the Juan confertifolia shows a wide genetic variation within popu- Ferna´ndez Archipelago, Chile, to determine genetic con- lations on both islands, and values of genetic diversity sequences of anagenesis, to examine relationships among within populations are similar to those found within pop- ulations of the continental progenitor. The genetic results are compatible with the hypothesis of high levels of genetic Electronic supplementary material The online version of this variation accumulating within anagenetically derived spe- article (doi:10.1007/s10265-014-0666-7) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
