Walp., is an importantcrop for manydeveloping coun- tries. Its potential cannotbe fully achieveddue to scarseresistance to pathogens.Source of resistance are present in wild gene pool, therefore, the introductionof genes for valuable traits from wild species to Vignaunguiculata faced an obstacle due to crossabilitybarriers betweenspecies. The study of the chromosomalmorphology could be usefulin a modernplant breedingapproach of cow- pea. Recentlythe use of image analysissystem to the karyotypingof plant specieswith few chromo- somes has allowed the productionof detailed karyotypesemployed for interspecificcomparisons. Twelvespecies belonging to four differentsubgenera and to six sectionsaccording to Marechalet al. (1978) were analysed by image analysissystem. The karyomorphologicalparameters were utilised for computingkaryosimmetry according to Stebbins(1971). Key words Vignaspecies, Image analysis,Karyotype, Taxonomy. The cowpea, V unguiculata (L.) Walp., is an important leguminous in many developing coun- tries where it represents the principal source of proteins. This species suffers attacks of seed para- sites, that drastically reduces the potential feed of this crop (Rachie and Rawall 1976). The aim of this research is the study of the chromosomal morphology that serves to describe the phyletic relationships (Stebbins 1971, Lackey 1980) and overcoming the hybridisation barriers for the insertion of useful genes from wild species. The chromosomes of the genus Vigna are very small (Parida et al. 1990), and the reports about karyotyping are few (Venora et al. 1995, and refer- ences therein). The phyletic relationships of the species in the genus Vigna were studied not only by morphokaryological analysis but also by isoenzymatic patterns (Jaaska and Jaaska 1988, 1990), nu- clear DNA determination (Parida et al. 1990, Lakhanpaul and Babu 1991) and molecular tech- niques as in situ hybridisation, cloning nucleotid sequence analysis and retrotransposable elements analysis (Fatokun et al. 1993, Galasso et al. 1995, 1997). Recently the use of image analysis in karyotyping of plant species with difficult chromosomes (small and/or not very distinguishable, Fukui 1986, 1998, Fukui and Iijima 1991, lijima et al. 1991, Yanagisawa et al. 1991), has allowed the realisation of detailed karyotypes also in Vigna (Venora and Saccardo 1993, Venora and Padulosi 1997). Using this methodology the complements of twelve species belonging to four different subgenera and six sections (Catiang, Reticulatae, Vigna, Plec- totropis, Leptospron, Sigmoidotropis) were inspected and described, in accordance with the classifi- cation of Marechal et al. (1978). 1 E-mail: [email protected] 2 E-mail: [email protected] 118 Gianfranco Venora, Sebastiano Blangiforti and Roberto Cremonini Cytologia 64 Table 1.

To obtain mitotic chromosomes the traditional approach was adopted: pre-treatment of root apices with 1,4-dichlorobenzene (2 h), and staining with Schiff's reagent after hydrolysis with 5 N HCl for 55 min at room temperature. At least ten metaphase plates for each species were analysed. The microscopic investigation was conducted by using a Zeiss Axioplan 2 microscopy connected with an image analysis system KS400 Zeiss, with dedicated software to karyotyping Ikaros 3.40 (MetaSystems 1996), that enables more reliable results than the traditional handmade karyotype (Venora et al. 1991). The total chro- mosome length, short arms, long arms and satellites were measured with the computer system. All the data for each plate are therefore inserted in a dedicated software "Karyo 95" to the accomplish- ment of the better matching of chromosomes couples, on the base of the data of each chromosome (Pavone et al. 1995). The arm ratio was calculated by adding the length of the satellite to the length of the attached arm. The nomenclature adopted for chromosome classification was that of Levan et al. (1964). Karyological data have been used to produce a classification according to Stebbins's cat- egories, which highlight the degree of karyologic symmetry (Stebbins 1971). The same information has been used for calculating TF% of Huziwara (1962) and the indices REC (Resemblance between chromosomes) and Syi (Symmetric indices) of Greilhuber and Speta (1976), which allow the com- parison between species and evaluation of karyological evolution. All the data referring to V un- guiculata, V oblongifolia, V luteola and V vexillata are from the report of Venora and Saccardo (1993). The results have been statistically tested by applying the cluster analysis method of Scott and Knott (1974). Results In Table 1, the karyotipic data of each of the twelve species are reported, resulted with 2n=22. Two species V ambacensis and V radiata exhibited two satellited pairs, the longest of the comple- ment. All the other species have only one satellited pair, the first, with the exception of V kirkii in Table 2.

The Fig. 1 illustrates the idiograms of the analysed species . The length of the complement, the karyotype formulas, the Rec , Syi, TF% indices and the classification of Stebbins (1971) are reported in Table 2 . The length of the complement is included between the species V adenatha (19.98 um) and V oblongifolia (12 .12 ƒÊm) which are the species with the longer and shorter complements, respectively . The most widespread karyotipic formula are msc+8m+2sm, common to four species, msc+ 10m is for two species , the other six species show karyotipic formulas specific to each one. The classification of Stebbins (1971) places the twelve species in four different categories. Figs. 2a and 2b show a graphic representation of the arm ratio and length of each chromosome in the twelve analysed species. This graphical representation enabled the identification of typical chromosomes (marker chromosomes) for each species (Table 3). V oblongifolia is the species with five marker chromosomes, while V ambacensis, V radiata and V vexillata have only one . The chro- mosomes that mostly discriminate between the studied species are the 4th , 7th and 8th pairs, that each distinguish four species, while the most homogeneous pairs in the examined species are the 5th and 9th pairs, which enable to identify one species. The symmetry indices have shown that the most asymmetry species is V unguiculata , while V adenantha resulted the most symmetrical. Optimal differentiation between chromosomes of the complement was found in V ambacensis. The spatial representation of the indices highlights four distinct groups. The most evolved karyotype is that of the cultivated species (V unguiculata) , and the most primitive that of V adenantha (Fig. 3a). Infact V unguiculata plot in the lower part of spa- tial representation group 1, on the contrary V adenantha lies in upper part , in the less evolved group. The classification of Marechal et al . (1978) related to the twelve analysed species, based on plant and pollen morphology, highlights six distinct groups (Marechal sections), it has been re- drawn on the spatial representation of the karyologic indices (Fig . 3b). Discussion The chromosomal number 2n=22 for all the species, coincides with previous cytological re- port on other species of the same genus (Venora et al. 1995), with the exception of V ambacensis that has been reported with 2n=20 (Dusseau and Magnaut 1941, Frahm-Leliveld 1965, Galasso et al. 1996, Parida et al. 1990), even Verdcourt (1970) reports 2n=20 both for V ambacensis and for other three species, between which V reticulata and V wittei that always resulted in 2n=22 under Table3.

  • Genus Vigna and Cowpea (V. Unguiculata [L.] Walp.) Taxonomy: Current Status and Prospects
    Genus Vigna and Cowpea (V. unguiculata [L.] Walp.) taxonomy: current status and prospects R.S. Pasquet1* and S. Padulosi2 1ICIPE, PO Box 30772, Nairobi, Kenya 2Bioversity International,Via dei Tre Denari, Maccarese (Rome), Italy *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Since the mid-nineties, thanks to DNA sequence studies, phylogeny of Phaseoleae, Phaseolinae, and genus Vigna has been greatly improved. Genus Vigna is now reduced to a monophyletic group including five reorganized subgenera: American subgenus Lasiospron, a subgenus Vigna reduced to yellow and blue-flowered species which includes Bambara groundnut, subgenus Haydonia, Asian subgenus Ceratotropis, and a subgenus Plectrotropis enlarged to all pink-flowered species. At the infraspecific level, although a precise phylogeny is not yet established, the different wild and domesticated cowpea groups are now well known. The nine subspecies can be split between a “mensensis” forest group (remote secondary gene pool) and a “dekindtiana” savanna group (close secondary gene pool) which includes subsp. unguiculata. Subsp. unguiculata represents the primary gene pool and includes the domesticated cowpea, var. unguiculata, and its wild progenitor, var. spontanea (previously known as subsp. dekindtiana sensu Verdcourt non Harms). However, if cowpea domestication occurred before 1500 BC in Harlan’s African non-center, a precise center of domestication is yet to be identified. Introduction Over the last 30 years, cowpea and Vigna taxonomy has been reviewed by several workers, including Baudoin and Maréchal (1985), Ng and Maréchal 1985, Pasquet 1996a, Pasquet 1996b, and Padulosi and Ng (1997) with substantial improvement. It is however particularly from the mid-nineties onward, that novel molecular technologies applied to taxonomy, such as DNA finger printing, have provided major advancement on the front of the phylogeny of Phaseoleae, Phaseolinae, and genus Vigna.

  • Lianas and Climbing Plants of the Neotropics: Fabaceae
    GUIDE TO THE GENERA OF LIANAS AND CLIMBING PLANTS IN THE NEOTROPICS FABACEAE By Pedro Acevedo-Rodríguez (5 Oct 2020) One of the largest plant families of the world with ca. 19,500 species exhibiting diverse habits including trees, erect or climbing shrubs, vines, lianas and terrestrial or aquatic herbs, with cosmopolitan distribution. Herbaceous vines often are twiners or scramblers or less often have tendrils (e.g., Vicia). Lianas for the most part have prehensile branches, twining stems, cirri (e.g., Machaerium, Senegalia), and less often are scramblers with armed stems or leaves. There are about 254 genera and 5360 species of Fabaceae in the Neotropics*. Of these, 57 genera contain lianas or climbing plants for a total of 840 species, occurring in a wide range of habitats, but more predominant in lowland moist forests, savannas, gallery forests, and in open disturbed biomes. Neotropical climbing Fabaceae are most diverse below 1500 m of elevation. (* total numbers are from G. Lewis, pers. comm., 2018). Sigmoidotropis speciosa (Kunth) A.Delgado, photo by P. Acevedo Diagnostics: Being a morphologically diverse family it is sometimes difficult to distinguish its members from vines in other families. As a general rule, leaves in the Fabaceae are alternate, compound and stipulate. Many herbaceous vines are twiners and have trifoliolate leaves; scrambling shrubs are often armed with recurved prickles and have bipinnate leaves; some lianas have flattened stems, usually with successive cambia, and bright red exudates. 1 General Characters 1. STEMS. Stems are woody or less often herbaceous. Woody, mature stems are usually 1 to 5 cm in diameter, although in several genera (e.g., Dalbergia, Machaerium and Schnella) they may reach 30 cm or more in diameter, and more than 30 m in length.

INTRODUÇÃO Leguminoseae é uma das maiores famílias de Angiospermas, compreendendo cerca de 19.500 espécies e 770 gêneros, sendo superada apenas por Orchidaceae e Asteraceae em número de espécies (LPWG 2013, 2017). Possui grande valor ecológico devido sua associação com bactérias fixadoras de nitrogênio, auxiliando na ciclagem de nutrientes, o que aumenta a fertilidade do solo (Sprent et al. 2013). Além disso, muitas de suas espécies são importantes economicamente (Graham & Vance 2003). No Brasil, Leguminoseae possui grande diversidade, apresentando 220 gêneros e cerca de 2.835 espécies, sendo 1.532 endêmicas (BFG 2015). Ocorrem em todas as regiões, estando presentes nos domínios fitogeográficos da Amazônia, Caatinga, Cerrado, Mata Atlântica, Pampa e Pantanal (BFG 2015). A Bahia é o segundo estado com a maior diversidade de espécies da família com cerca de 937, perdendo apenas para Minas Gerais(BFG 2015). Atualmente Leguminosae é dividida em seis subfamílias: Cercidoideae, Detarioideae, Dialioideae, Duparquetioideae, Caesalpinioideae e Papilionoideae, sendo as cinco primeiras segregadas de Caesalpinioideae s.l. e Mimosoideae incluída em Caesalpinioideae (LPWG 2017). A circunscrição de Papilionoideae não teve alterações e ela inclui 503 gêneros, 29 tribos e cerca de 14.000 espécies (LPWG 2013, 2017, Queiroz et al.

  • Isozyme Polymorphism Within Section Reticulatae of Genus Vigna (Tribe Phaseoleae: Fabaceae)
    biochemical systematics and ecology i PERGAMON Biochemical Systematics and Ecology 26 (1998) 297-308 a\ < 8 I Isozyme polymorphism within section reticulatae of genus Vigna (Tribe Phaseoleae: Fabaceae) Maimouiia Garbaa, Rémy S. Pasquetb.* Ecole Normale Supérieure, Université Abdou Moumouni, BP I0963 Niamey, Nigeria ORSTOM, BP I I41 6 Niamey, Nigeria Received 22 April 1997; accepted 28 July 1997 Abstract An electrophoretic comparison of variation at 30 isozyme loci was performed for 45 accessions from genus Vigna, section reticulatae. Within the section level, these results fitted the nomenclature used. Within V. reticulata, variability was organized geographically and the West African weedy V. reticulata genetically was different from West African wild V. reticulata. 0 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Introduction Vigna Savi (Fabaceae: Phaseoleae) is a pantropical genus which is comprised of 82 ~ species (Maréchal et al., 1978).Two of these are economically important in Africa: the cowpea, V.uizguiculata (L.) Walp.; and the bambara groundnut, V. subterranea (L.) Verdc. The latter species were first domesticated in Africa, where both are encoun- tered as wild plants. The last comprehensive taxonomic studies of Vigna or its parts are those of Verdcourt (1970) and Maréchal et al. (1978). Verdcourt focussed primarily on the taxa represented in Eastern Africa (sensu Kew). Maréchal et al., however, presented an overview of the Phaseolastrae Baudet & Maréchal, and were mainly interested in the -i\ delimitation of Vigna vis-a-vis Phaseolus L. They confirmed most of the work of * Corresponding author. Present address:International dentre of Insect Physiology and Ecology, POi Box 30772, Nairobi, Kenya.
