Comprising over 2500 species, the composition and particularly the relationships among the major clades of this group have historically been contentious and defied phylogenetic resolution until very recently.

  • Biosystematic Analysis of the Cystopteris
    BIOSYSTEMATIC ChristopherH. Haufier,2 MichaelD. Windham2'3and ANALYSIS OF Thomas A. Ranker4 THE CYSTOPTERIS TENNESSEENSIS (DRYOPTERIDACEAE) COMPLEX' ABSTRACT The allotetraploid Cystopteris tennesseensis and its putative diploid progenitors, C. bulbifera and C. protrusa, constitute the C. tennesseensis complex. Although previous studies provided evidence of morphological, ecological, and chromosomal differences among the members of this complex, puzzling morphological variability precluded consistent identification and treatment of the taxa. The current study combined morphometric analyses with surveys of chromosomal, isozymic, and gametophytic features and supported past treatments of the complex as three separate species. The diploids shared no allozymes for the nine enzymes examined, and meiotic analyses of triploid hybrids with C. tennesseensis provided additional evidence that the diploid genomes are nonhomologous. Because C. tennes- seensis has a relatively narrow range and contains isozymic profiles that are consistently additive of diploid patterns, we suggest that this allopolyploid is a relatively young species. Isozymic variation in the tetraploid parallels that observed in the diploids, implying that genetic variability was introduced through recurrent hybridization. Analyses of isozymic data and gametophytic features indicated that the diploids outcross frequently and thus may form hybrids readily when sympatric with the tetraploid. In part because of these characteristics, precise identification of species and hybrids in this complex is difficult and depends on evaluation of cryptic features. The cosmopolitan genus Cystopteris Bernh. has directed into teeth were placed in sect. Cystopteris, been called "perhaps the most formidable biosys- while those with veins directed into sinuses were tematic problem in the ferns" (Lovis, 1977, p. assigned to sect. Emarginatae.

  • Phytochrome Diversity in Green Plants and the Origin of Canonical Plant Phytochromes
    ARTICLE Received 25 Feb 2015 | Accepted 19 Jun 2015 | Published 28 Jul 2015 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms8852 OPEN Phytochrome diversity in green plants and the origin of canonical plant phytochromes Fay-Wei Li1, Michael Melkonian2, Carl J. Rothfels3, Juan Carlos Villarreal4, Dennis W. Stevenson5, Sean W. Graham6, Gane Ka-Shu Wong7,8,9, Kathleen M. Pryer1 & Sarah Mathews10,w Phytochromes are red/far-red photoreceptors that play essential roles in diverse plant morphogenetic and physiological responses to light. Despite their functional significance, phytochrome diversity and evolution across photosynthetic eukaryotes remain poorly understood. Using newly available transcriptomic and genomic data we show that canonical plant phytochromes originated in a common ancestor of streptophytes (charophyte algae and land plants). Phytochromes in charophyte algae are structurally diverse, including canonical and non-canonical forms, whereas in land plants, phytochrome structure is highly conserved. Liverworts, hornworts and Selaginella apparently possess a single phytochrome, whereas independent gene duplications occurred within mosses, lycopods, ferns and seed plants, leading to diverse phytochrome families in these clades. Surprisingly, the phytochrome portions of algal and land plant neochromes, a chimera of phytochrome and phototropin, appear to share a common origin. Our results reveal novel phytochrome clades and establish the basis for understanding phytochrome functional evolution in land plants and their algal relatives. 1 Department of Biology, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina 27708, USA. 2 Botany Department, Cologne Biocenter, University of Cologne, 50674 Cologne, Germany. 3 University Herbarium and Department of Integrative Biology, University of California, Berkeley, California 94720, USA. 4 Royal Botanic Gardens Edinburgh, Edinburgh EH3 5LR, UK. 5 New York Botanical Garden, Bronx, New York 10458, USA.

VASCULAR FLORA OF THE SHOAL CREEK PRESERVE FOREVER WILD TRACT, LAUDERDALE COUNTY, ALABAMA 1* 1 1 1 BRIAN D. HOLT , ASHLEY S. PETERS , CHRIS T. TAYLOR , AND T. WAYNE BARGER 1State Lands Division, Natural Heritage Section, Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, 64 North Union Street Montgomery, Alabama 36130 *Correspondence : Brian D. Holt ([email protected]) ABSTRACT The Shoal Creek Preserve Forever Wild Tract (SCPFWT) is a 123 ha property acquired by Alabama’s Forever Wild Land Program on February 26, 2003. The SCPFWT lies 13 km north-northeast of Florence, Alabama, 46 km southeast of Lawrenceburg, Tennessee, and is bordered for a short distance on the east by Shoal Creek. The site is managed by the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources for habitat conservation, outdoor recreation, and education. An intensive floristic study of this area was conducted from May 2009 through May 2011 and less frequently through June 2015. A total of 519 taxa from 346 genera and 121 families were collected, with 217 taxa representing county records. Asteraceae was the most collected family, with 69 species; Poaceae, Fabaceae, and Cyperaceae were the next largest families with 38, 29, and 17 species, respectively. Carex was the largest genus represented with 11 species. 71 non-native taxa were collected during the surveys. 42 percent of the total collections were county records and 37 exotic taxa collected during this survey were county records.

  • Synopsis of the Genus Cystopteris Bernh. (Cystopteridaceae)
    Ukrainian Journal of Ecology Ukrainian Journal of Ecology, 2018, 8(4), 290-297 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Synopsis of the genus Cystopteris Bernh. (Cystopteridaceae) A.I. Shmakov, A.A. Batkin, A.V. Vaganov South-Siberian Botanical Garden, Altai State University, pr. Lenina 61, Barnaul, 656049, Russia E-mail: [email protected] Received: 29.10.2018. Accepted: 03.12.2018 The synopsis of the genus Cystopteris Bernh., consisting of 32 species and 5 hybrids, is given in the article. An information on the type material, its localization and the general distribution of species is presented for all taxa. Two new combinations are designated: Cystopteris huteri (Hausm. ex Milde) Shmakov, comb. et stat. nov. and sect. Khokhrjakovia (Tzvel.) Shmakov, comb. et stat. nov. Keywords: Cystopteris; Cystopteridaceae; distribution; hybrids; Rhizomatopteris; type As an independent family Cystopteridaceae (Payer) Shmakov was separated recently (Shmakov, 2001), and then recognized by several pteridologists (Christenhusz et al., 2011; Rothfels et al., 2012, 2013) and in different floras (Kim, Sun, 2015). Currently, the family includes 4 genera: Acystopteris Nakai, Cystoathyrium Ching, Cystopteris Bernh. (including Rhizomatopteris A.Khokhr.), Gymnocarpium Newman. (including Currania Copel.) (Christenhusz et al., 2011; Rothfels et al., 2012), – with about 30 species (PPG1, 2016; Rothfels et al., 2012, 2013). The systematic position of the family is complicated, in some treatments it was included in well-known families – Athyriaceae (Bobrov, 1974; Jones, 1998; Prada, 1986; Shmakov, 1999; Tzvelev, 1991), Woodsiaceae (Fraser-Jenkins, 2015; Kato, 1995, Roux, 2009; Smith, 2006; Verdcourt, 2003) or Dryopteridaceae (Smith, 1993; Tryon, Stolze, 1991). R. F. Blasdell (1963) interpreted the genus Cystopteris widely and included in it Acystopteris Nakai as subgenus.
