We use new fossil pollen data to assess variation in abundance of Cousinia Cass. (Compositae), a large genus typical for the Irano- Turanian flora, during these cycles. The results are compared with modern topography, tectonic and palaeoclimatic history, and recent phylogenetic data to explain the extremely high speciation rate and level of endemism as well as the modern geographical distribution of the genus.

Prof. Popova 2, 197376 St. Petersburg, Russia 4 These authors contributed equally to this publication The phylogeny and evolution of the Arctium-Cousinia complex, including Arctium, Cousinia as one of the largest genera of Asteraceae, Hypacanthium and Schmalhausenia, is investigated. This group of genera has its highest diversity in the Irano-Turanian region and the mountains of Central Asia. We generated ITS and rpS4-trnT-trnL sequences for altogether 138 species, including 129 (of ca. 600) species of Cousinia. As found in previous analyses, Cousinia is not monophyletic. Instead, Cousinia subgg. Cynaroides and Hypacanthodes with together ca. 30 species are more closely related to Arctium, Hypacanthium and Schmalhausenia (Arc- tioid clade) than to subg. Cousinia (Cousinioid clade). The Arctioid and Cousiniod clades are also supported by pollen morphology and chromosome number as reported earlier. In the Arctioid clade, the distribution of morphological characters important for generic delimitation, mainly leaf shape and armature and morphology of involucral bracts, are highly incongruent with phylogenetic relationships as implied by the molecular data.

As a consequence of relying on non-renewable energy sources and reckless encroachment on natural habitats a lot of plant and animal species have become extinct and more and more species are getting endangered. Thus celebrating biodiversity and solidarity for all life forms, from the tiniest one to the most complex eco-systems, has been in the centre of our attention and operational activities. Keywords: durable development, ecology, endangered species. 1. Introduction Within the massive destruction of forests and forest climate, we witness significant changes, Just as the man has passed from the stage of sometimes radical of the environment. For the animal hunter and collector up to animal raiser and farmer, and plants which have survived through a long period the natural vegetation has increasingly been subject of adaptation, a new difficult era starts again.

  • 1 Sistemática Filogenética De Pterocaulon E Wunderlichia
    Sistemática filogenética de Pterocaulon e Wunderlichia (Asteraceae) Pesquisador responsável: Dr. João Semir Universidade Estadual de Campinas Resumo A grande variabilidade morfológica que as plantas apresentam permite a caracterização e o reconhecimento das espécies, constituindo assim, a base da taxonomia. O número de caracteres utilizados para o reconhecimento das espécies aumentou muito ao longo da história da classificação dos organismos e, nas últimas décadas este acréscimo foi ainda maior devido aos avanços oriundos de estudos moleculares. Atualmente técnicas utilizando dados moleculares associados aos dados morfológicos são excelentes fontes de informação para os estudos de evolução e reconstrução filogenética. Asteraceae é a maior família entre as Angiospermas, possui cerca de 24.000 espécies distribuídas em 1.600 gêneros dem distribuição cosmopolita. Nos Neotrópicos a diversidade da família é de aproximadamente 580 gêneros e 8.040 espécies. Para o Brasil são referidas 1.960 espécies distribuídas em 288 gêneros, representando a terceira maior família de plantas com flores para o Brasil, colocando-o como um centro de diversidade das Asteraceae. O presente projeto faz parte dos estudos para o conhecimento da diversidade das Asteraceae brasileiras e tem como objetivo reconstruir hipóteses filogenéticas dos gêneros Pterocaulon e Wunderlichia, com base em dados moleculares, permitindo o estudo e interpretação da evolução de caracteres morfológicos importantes para a circunscrição desses gêneros. Para este propósito, além dos dados moleculares, serão utilizadas ferramentas, como o estudo taxonômico e cromossômico. Os resultados serão apresentados em forma de artigos, publicados em periódicos e também divulgados em reuniões científicas. O desenvolvimento deste projeto é importante, pois será realizado por meio de parcerias com pesquisadores de outras áreas da botânica sendo possível ampliar o conhecimento dos táxons em análise, contribuindo para melhorar a compreensão acerca da diversidade, biologia e conservação dos mesmos.

This botanical treasure trove is under growing pressure from a complex chain of cause and effect of unprecedented magnitude: demographic, socio-economic and climatic changes, habitat conversion and loss, unsustainable use of native species and introduction of exotic ones, together with environmental contamination are rapidly transforming China’s ecosystems. There is a steady rise in the number of plant species that are on the verge of extinction. Great Wall, Badaling, Beijing (Image: Zhang Qingyuan) Botanic Gardens Conservation International (BGCI) therefore seeks to assist China in its endeavours to maintain and conserve the country’s extraordinary botanical heritage and the benefits that this biological diversity provides for human well-being. It is a challenging venture and represents one of BGCI’s core practical conservation programmes.

The study was based on analyses of one nuclear (ITS) and two chlo- roplastic (trnL-trnT-rps4, rpl32-trnL) DNA regions of 37 species and was complemented with morphological evidence where possible. Based on the results, a broadly redefined monophyletic genus Arctium is proposed. The subgenera Hypacanthodes and Cynaroides are not monophyletic and are suppressed. In contrast, the traditional sectional classification of the genus Cousinia is maintained. The genera Anura, Hypacanthium and Schmalhausenia are reduced to sectional level.
