Phylogeny and Evolution of the Arctium-Cousinia Complex (Compositae, Cardueae-Carduinae)

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. -
(Anthemis Cotula L.): an ALIEN INVASIVE SPECIES in KASHMIR HIMALAYA
Proceedings of the 21st Asian Pacific Weed Science Society Conference (Editors: B. Marambe, U.R. Sangakkara, W.A.J.M. De Costa, and A.S.K. Abeysekara), 2-6 October 2007, Colombo, Sri Lanka. EFFECT OF SEEDLING EMERGENCE TIME ON THE PERFORMANCE OF MAYWEED (Anthemis cotula L.): AN ALIEN INVASIVE SPECIES IN KASHMIR HIMALAYA I. Rashid, Z. Reshi and B.A. Wafai Department of Botany, University of Kashmir, Srinagar, J&K, India [email protected] Abstract: Biological invasions, caused by non-native invasive species are a major factor contributing to ecosystem perturbations and hence are being actively pursued worldwide. Mayweed (Anthemis cotula L.), a native of southern Europe-West Siberia is an aggressive invasive species in Kashmir Himalaya, India. Among the myriad of attributes, seedling emergence time is critical to its successful colonization of habitats with varying levels of soil disturbance. Field studies revealed that the species recruits individuals over an extended period of time from September to May. This recruitment period is interspersed by harsh snowy winter (December-February) and hence the established plants of the species are constituted of pre-winter and post-winter populations, with former contributing to the fitness component of its life history and latter to the survival component. Except for number of achenes per capitulum and achene weight, all other investigated parameters such as stem height, number of primary branches per plant and number of capitula per plant were significantly higher in individuals belonging to pre-winter population in than the individuals constituting the post-winter plants. Fecundity of pre-winter individuals was further enhanced if decapitated by a specific herbivore that results in over-compensatory growth. -

Molecular Systematics of Genus Atractylodes (Compositae, Cardueae): Evidence from Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) and Trnl-F Sequences

Received: 13 August 2012; in revised form: 26 October 2012 / Accepted: 30 October 2012 / Published: 9 November 2012 Abstract: To determine the evolutionary relationships among all members of the genus Atractylodes (Compositae, Cardueae), we conducted molecular phylogenetic analyses of one nuclear DNA (nrDNA) region (internal transcribed spacer, ITS) and one chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) region (intergenic spacer region of trnL-F). In ITS and ITS + trnL-F trees, all members of Atractylodes form a monophyletic clade. Atractylodes is a sister group of the Carlina and Atractylis branch. Atractylodes species were distributed among three clades: (1) A. carlinoides (located in the lowest base of the Atractylodes phylogenetic tree), (2) A. macrocephala, and (3) the A. lancea complex, including A. japonica, A. coreana, A. lancea, A. lancea subsp. luotianensis, and A. chinensis. The taxonomic controversy over the classification of species of Atractylodes is mainly concentrated in the A. -

Khafagi(3), Nashua A.M. Mostafa(1) (1)Department of Botany and Microbiology, Faculty of Science, El-Arish University, N. Sinai, Egypt; (2)The Herbarium, Botany Department, Faculty of Science, Cairo University, Giza, Egypt; (3)Botany Department, Faculty of Science, Al-Azhar University (Girls Branch), Cairo, Egypt. ANUALLY constructed keys for identification of plants leave much to be desired. Keys Mto the Asteraceae of Egypt are no exception and depend largely on floral minutiae while vegetative morphology is a much richer source of characters suitable for key construction. Inspection of some 3000 specimens showed that the most obvious feature of the plants is the presence or absence of spines on leaves, leaf axils, stem internodes, margins of stem wings and phyllaries. This feature was selected to divide species of this family into two main groups: spiny and spineless. Nomenclature of all taxa was updated and those with names reduced to synonyms of others were eliminated. This article deals only with the 65 species belonging to 20 genera of the first group. A total of 51 characters describing variation in spine distribution and other characters of vegetative morphology were recorded for each of the 65 spiny species and the key-generating program DELTA was applied to the data matrix. The result is a much improved automated key, a detailed description of every species in terms of the entire set of 51 characters, and the same description but in terms of the serial numbers assigned to these characters and their states. -
