Bot. Fennici 42: 411–426. Vegetation of an area of 500 km2 in the western Khentey Mountains, northern Mon- golia is phytosociologically classified with the help of 254 relevés. Twenty-one main vegetation units are described. The study area is situated at the interface between the western Siberian dark taiga, the eastern Siberian light taiga and the Mongolian-Daurian forest steppe. A small-scale pattern of these three major vegetation types was found depending on site characteristics. Dark taiga forests of Pinus sibirica, Abies sibirica, Picea obovata, and Larix sibirica grow at the most humid sites. Light taiga forests dominated by Larix sibirica and Betula platyphylla occur on relatively dry northern slopes of the lower montane belt. Sun-exposed, southern slopes of the lower montane belt are covered by montane meadow and mountain steppe. DCA ordination suggests that the distribution of vegetation types depends on water supply and altitude.

    Morphological and Molecular Characterization of Iranian Wild Blackberry Species Using Multivariate Statistical Analysis and Inter-Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSR) Markers Ali Gharaghani ( [email protected] ) Shiraz University Mehdi Garazhian Shiraz University Saeid Eshghi Shiraz University Ahmad Tahmasebi Shiraz University Research Article Keywords: cluster analysis, correlation, genetic diversity, Rubus ssp., variability Posted Date: January 4th, 2021 DOI: https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-136174/v1 License: This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Read Full License Page 1/18 Abstract This study was carried out to estimate the genetic diversity and relationships of 74 Iranian blackberry genotypes assigned to 5 different species using inter- simple sequence repeats (ISSR) marker analysis and morphological trait characterization. Sixteen traits including phenological, vegetative and reproductive attributes were recorded, and 10 ISSR primers were screened. Results showed that yield and leaf width have the highest and lowest genetic diversity, (diversity index = 62.57 and 13.74), respectively. Flowering and ripening date recorded as traits having the strongest correlations (r = 0.98). The selected 10 ISSR primers produced a total of 161 amplied fragments (200 to 3500 bp) of which 113 were polymorphic. The highest, lowest and average PIC values were 0.53, 0.38 and 0.44, respectively. Principle component analysis (PCA) based on morphological traits showed that the rst six components explained 84.9% of the variations of traits studied, whilst the principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) based on ISSR data implied the rst eight principal coordinates explained 67.06% of the total variation. Cluster analysis based on morphological traits and ISSR data classied all genotypes into two and three major groups, respectively, and the distribution pattern of genotypes was mainly based on species and the geographic origins.

It is largely the fruit of many pleasant hours of botanising by the author and a few others and as such reflects their particular interests. History of Plant Recording Peeblesshire is thinly populated and has had few resident botanists to record its flora. Also its upland terrain held little in the way of dramatic features or geology to attract outside botanists. Consequently the first list of the county’s flora with any pretension to completeness only became available in 1925 with the publication of the History of Peeblesshire (Eds, JW Buchan and H Paton). For this FRS Balfour and AB Jackson provided a chapter on the county’s flora which included a list of all the species known to occur. The first records were made by Dr A Pennecuik in 1715. He gave localities for 30 species and listed 8 others, most of which are still to be found. Thereafter for some 140 years the only evidence of interest is a few specimens in the national herbaria and scattered records in Lightfoot (1778), Watson (1837) and The New Statistical Account (1834-45).

  • Ancestral State Reconstruction of the Mycorrhizal Association for the Last Common Ancestor of Embryophyta, Given the Different Phylogenetic Constraints
    Supplementary information Supplementary Figures Figure S1 | Ancestral state reconstruction of the mycorrhizal association for the last common ancestor of Embryophyta, given the different phylogenetic constraints. Pie charts show the likelihood of the ancestral states for the MRCA of Embryophyta for each phylogenetic hypothesis shown below. Letters represent mycorrhizal associations: (A) Ascomycota; (B) Basidiomycota; (G) Glomeromycotina; (M) Mucoromycotina; (-) Non-mycorrhizal.

  • The Genus Barbarea R.Br. (Cruciferae) in Britain and Ireland
    Watsonia, 16, 389--396 (1987) 389 The genus Barbarea R.Br. (Cruciferae) in Britain and Ireland T. C. G, RICH Biological Records Centre, Monks Wood Experimental Station, Abbots Ripton, Huntingdon, PE17 2LS ABSTRACT An account of the genus Barbarea R.Br. (Cruciferae) in Britain and Ireland is presented. A general description of the genus, and the four species that occur in these islands. Barbarea stricta Andrz., B. vulgaris R.Br., B. intermedia Boreau and B. verna (Miller) Asch .. is given, together with a key and notes on their identification and distribution. INTRODUCTION The genus Barbarea R.Br. (Cruciferae) contains some 16 species, 13 of which occur in Europe. Four of these have been recorded from Britain and Ireland: Barbarea stricta Andrz., B. vulgaris R.Br., B. intermedia Boreau and B. verna (Miller) Asch. However, as the species are superficially similar and the published keys and descriptions available often unreliable, they have been frequently confused. During the last five years I have studied the genus in cultivation, field and herbarium, and the purpose of this paper is to clarify the taxonomy of these four species and to draw attention to characters by which they may be distinguished. Barbarea is a well defined, natural genus and is usually placed in the tribe Arabideae with Arabis, Cardamine, Cardaminopsis and Rorippa. Barbarea may be defined in the British Isles as follows: Biennial or short lived perennial (rarely annual) herbs, glabrous or sparsely pubescent below with simple hairs. Rosette leaves pinnate. Upper cauline leaves amplexicaul, sessile, entire to pinnatifid. Sepals erect, the inner slightly saccate at the base.
