The species composition of fungi that cause damage to the 11 Maloideae leaves and fruits in the Russia southern regions is analyzed. It is established that 12 among pathogens with different types of parasitism there are common excitants, as well as 13 highly specialized, more represented on Mespilus germanica. Higher resistance to the complex 14 of fungal diseases, in comparison with apple and pear, was found in quince and medlar. This 15 stability at the initial stage of the pathological process is associated with structural features such 16 as micromorphology of the fruits and stomata cuticle in the abaxial leaves epidermis. The leaves 17 stomatal cracks of the medlar are narrow with raised outgrowths, on the surface of the fruit – the 18 layered structure of the cuticular layer. Quince has a powerful continuous cuticular cover. 19 Compared with Malus and Pyrus, Cydonia and Mespilus also have a large (30 % or more) 20 polyphenol content in the pericarp outer layer cells. In addition to the gender-specific differences 21 in the microstructure of the integumentary tissues and the content of polyphenols affecting the 22 resistance to pathogens at the stage of their penetration, general patterns of leaf surface 23 formation, such as hypostomacy, anomocytic stomata, folded microrelief of the cuticular surface, 24 and the presence of single and multicellular trichomes are noted.

Maleae consists of economically and ecologically important plants. However, there are considerable disputes on generic circumscription due to the lack of a reliable phylogeny at generic level. In this study, molecular phylogeny of 35 generally accepted genera in Maleae is established using 15 chloroplast regions. Gillenia isthemostbasalcladeofMaleae,followedbyKageneckia + Lindleya, Vauquelinia, and a typical radiation clade, the core Maleae, suggesting that the proposal of four subtribes is reasonable.

PHIPPS Department of Biology, The University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario N6A 5B7, Canada; email: [email protected] Abstract The paper argues the position for retaining a monotypic Mespilus, i.e., in the sense of M. germanica, the medlar. Recent cladistic papers lend support for Mespilus being sister to Crataegus, and there is a clear morphological distinction from Cra- taegus, emphasized by adaptation to carnivore frugivory. Mespilus secured, the paper then treats each of the known hybrids between Mespilus and Crataegus, making the new combination Crataemespilus ×canescens (J.B. Phipps) J.B. Phipps. Keywords: Crataemespilus ×canescens (J.B. Phipps) J.B. Phipps comb. nov.; inflorescence position; medlar; Mespilus a folk-genus; Mespilus distinct from Crataegus; Rosaceae; taxonomic history of Mespilus Introduction The author has a long-standing interest in generic delimitation in the Maloid genera of the Rosaceae (Maleae Small, formerly Maloideae C. Weber, Pyrinae Dumort.), as shown particularly in a series of papers with K. Robertson, J. Rohrer, and P.G. Smith (Phipps et al. 1990, 1991; Robertson at al. 1991, 1992; Rohrer at al. 1991, 1994) which treated all 28 genera of Maleae as recognised by us.

E-mail: [email protected] RESUMEN Las variaciones de las características morfológicas en las plantas pueden ser una respuesta a las codiciones am- bientales, considerando todos los factores físicos y fi siológicos, y en casos extremos a cambios estructurales, consecuencia de fenómenos como la deforestación o el cambio climático. El cerote común (Hesperomeles obtu- sifolia), es un especie que habita zonas conservadas e intervenidas en su rango de distribución, es por ello que se utilizó como modelo para evaluar las variación de las características morfológicas en dos zonas diferentes: una conservada en el pá-ramo del infi ernillo y una intervenida de la reserva Natural Pueblo Viejo en el Mu-nicipio de Mallama (Departamento de Nariño); para lo cual se realizaron muestreos de 21 individuos por zona, de los que se tomó 10 hojas por cada muestra y 5 frutos y se analizaron los parámetros morfométricos. Los análisis estadísticos mostaron diferencias estadísticamente signifi cativas en todas las variables evaluadas, lo cual puede indicar que la especie de estudio presenta una alta plasticidad fenotípica, que se considera de importancia frente a la coloniza- ción de nuevos hábitats Palabras claves: Variación morfológica, Morfométria, plasticidad fenotípica.

Common name toyon, California Christmas berry, California-holly (Painter 2016); Christmas berry (CalFlora 2016). D. Taxonomic relationships Phylogenetic analyses based on molecular and morphological data confirm thatPhotinia is the most closely related genus (Guo et al. 2011). Photinia differs in having 20 stamens, fused carpels, and stone cells in the testa as well as occurring in summer-wet environments (Phipps 1992). E. Related taxa in region None. There is only one species of Heteromeles. The closely related Photinia is primarily tropical (Meyer 2008) and not in California. Toyon's taxonomic stability may be in part related to its reproductive mode (Wells 1969). F. Taxonomic issues The three varieties of H. arbutifolia listed above in cell I. B. are currently recognized in the USDA PLANTS (2016) database. G. Other One of the most widely distributed California shrubs. Also widely planted and well-known for its bright red fruits in winter. McMinn (1939) noted it had been planted widely in parks and gardens since about 1914. From the Greek words 'heter' for different and 'malus' for apple (Munz 1974).

  • Generic Limits of Pyrinae: Insights from Nuclear Ribosomal DNA Sequences
    Botanical Studies (2012) 53: 151-164. SYSTEMATICS Generic limits of Pyrinae: Insights from nuclear ribosomal DNA sequences Qing-Yan LI1, Wei GUO1, Wen-Bo LIAO1,*, James A. MACKLIN2, and Jian-Hua LI3,* 1Sun Yat-sen University, School of Life Sciences, Guangdong Key Laboratory of Plant Resources, Guangzhou, Guangdong, 510275, P.R. China 2Harvard University Herbaria, Organismal and Evolutionary Biology, 22 Divinity Avenue, Cambridge, Massachusetts, 02138, USA 3Biology Department, Hope College, MI 49423, USA (Received August 23, 2010; Accepted October 6, 2011) ABSTRACT. The subtribe Pyrinae, formerly the Maloideae, is a monophyletic group of about 1,000 species that includes well known fruit crops such as apple (Malus), pear (Pyrus), quince (Cydonia), loquat (Eriobotrya), chokeberry (Aronia), and serviceberry (Amelanchier). Generic limits have been fluid in Pyrinae, especially in Malus, Sorbus and Photinia. This study evaluated the generic limits of 180 samples of multiple species or accessions from each of the traditional genera using sequences of the nrDNA ITS region. The ITS data recog- nized 24 genera, including Amelanchier, Aria (including Micromeles), Aronia, Chaenomeles, Chamaemespilus, Chamaemeles, Cormus, Cotoneaster, Crataegus, Cydonia, Dichotomanthes, Eriobotrya, Hesperomeles, Mala- comeles, Malus (including Chloromeles, Docynia, Docyniopsis, and Eriolobus), Mespilus, Osteomeles, Pera- phyllum, Pourthiaea, Pseudocydonia, Pyrus, Rhaphiolepis, Sorbus, and Torminalis. However, both Photinia and Pyracantha are polyphyletic. Photinia is separated into different clades, one of which contains species of Heteromeles and Stranvaesia. Asian species of Pyracantha do not form a clade with P. coccinea of southern Europe and Iran. Our results support the close relationship of Amelanchier, Malacomeles, and Peraphyllum, and of Crataegus and Mespilus, and for the first time recognize the sister relationship of the South American genus Hesperomeles with the Crataegus-Mespilus clade.

DILLENBERGER1 Which changes are needed to render all genera of the German lora monophyletic? Version of record irst published online on 24 March 2016 ahead of inclusion in April 2016 issue. Abstract: The use of DNA sequence data in plant systematics has brought us closer than ever to formulating well- founded hypotheses about phylogenetic relationships, and phylogenetic research keeps on revealing that plant genera as traditionally circumscribed often are not monophyletic. Here, we assess the monophyly of all genera of vascular plants found in Germany. Using a survey of the phylogenetic literature, we discuss which classiications would be consistent with the phylogenetic relationships found and could be followed, provided monophyly is accepted as the primary criterion for circumscribing taxa. We indicate whether and which names are available when changes in ge- neric assignment are made (but do not present a comprehensive review of the nomenclatural aspects of such names). Among the 840 genera examined, we identiied c. 140 where data quality is suiciently high to conclude that they are not monophyletic, and an additional c. 20 where monophyly is questionable but where data quality is not yet suicient to reach convincing conclusions. While it is still iercely debated how a phylogenetic tree should be trans- lated into a classiication, our results could serve as a guide to the likely consequences of systematic research for the taxonomy of the German lora and the loras of neighbouring countries.

(2019): The reaction of different Sorbus L. species to low temperatures during thaw in the Orel region. J. For. Sci., 65: 218–225. Abstract: Five Sorbus L. species of different ecological and geographical origin growing in the VNIISPK arboretum were studied. The Institute is located 368 km southwest of Moscow, on the Central Russian upland in the European part of Russia. The studies were carried out in 2014–2016. The reaction of different Sorbus L. species to a three-day thaw +2°C with a subsequent decrease in temperature to –25°C in February and –30°C in March was studied in or- der to identify adapted species to the climatic conditions of the Orel region for use in ornamental horticulture. As a result of the experiment, we recommend Sorbus aria (L.) Crantz, Sorbus aucuparia L. and Sorbus alnifolia (Siebold. et Zucc.) K.
