  • High-Throughput Sequencing of Six Bamboo Chloroplast Genomes: Phylogenetic Implications for Temperate Woody Bamboos (Poaceae: Bambusoideae)
    High-Throughput Sequencing of Six Bamboo Chloroplast Genomes: Phylogenetic Implications for Temperate Woody Bamboos (Poaceae: Bambusoideae) Yun-Jie Zhang1,2,3., Peng-Fei Ma1,2,3., De-Zhu Li1,2* 1 Key Laboratory of Biodiversity and Biogeography, Kunming Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Kunming, Yunnan, People’s Republic of China, 2 Plant Germplasm and Genomics Center, Germplasm Bank of Wild Species, Kunming Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Kunming, Yunnan, People’s Republic of China, 3 Graduate University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, People’s Republic of China Abstract Background: Bambusoideae is the only subfamily that contains woody members in the grass family, Poaceae. In phylogenetic analyses, Bambusoideae, Pooideae and Ehrhartoideae formed the BEP clade, yet the internal relationships of this clade are controversial. The distinctive life history (infrequent flowering and predominance of asexual reproduction) of woody bamboos makes them an interesting but taxonomically difficult group. Phylogenetic analyses based on large DNA fragments could only provide a moderate resolution of woody bamboo relationships, although a robust phylogenetic tree is needed to elucidate their evolutionary history. Phylogenomics is an alternative choice for resolving difficult phylogenies. Methodology/Principal Findings: Here we present the complete nucleotide sequences of six woody bamboo chloroplast (cp) genomes using Illumina sequencing. These genomes are similar to those of other grasses and rather conservative in evolution. We constructed a phylogeny of Poaceae from 24 complete cp genomes including 21 grass species. Within the BEP clade, we found strong support for a sister relationship between Bambusoideae and Pooideae. In a substantial improvement over prior studies, all six nodes within Bambusoideae were supported with $0.95 posterior probability from Bayesian inference and 5/6 nodes resolved with 100% bootstrap support in maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood analyses.

  • Identification and Characterization of the PEBP Family Genes in Moso
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Identifcation and Characterization of the PEBP Family Genes in Moso Bamboo (Phyllostachys heterocycla) Zhaohe Yang1,2, Lei Chen1,2, Markus V. Kohnen2, Bei Xiong2,3, Xi Zhen2,3, Jiakai Liao2,3, Yoshito Oka2, Qiang Zhu2, Lianfeng Gu2, Chentao Lin 2,4* & Bobin Liu1,2* Moso bamboo is one of the economically most important plants in China. Moso bamboo is a monocarpic perennial that exhibits poor and slow germination. Thus, the fowering often causes destruction of moso bamboo forestry. However, how control of fowering and seed germination are regulated in moso bamboo is largely unclear. In this study, we identifed 5 members (PhFT1-5) of the phosphatidyl ethanolamine-binding proteins (PEBP) family from moso bamboo genome that regulate fowering, fower architecture and germination, and characterized the function of these PEBP family genes further in Arabidopsis. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that 3 (PhFT1, PhFT2 and PhFT3), 1 (PhFT4) and 1 (PhFT5) members belong to the TFL1-like clade, FT-like clade, and MFT-like clade, respectively. These PEBP family genes possess all structure necessary for PEBP gene function. The ectopic overexpression of PhFT4 and PhFT5 promotes fowering time in Arabidopsis, and that of PhFT1, PhFT2 and PhFT3 suppresses it. In addition, the overexpression of PhFT5 promotes seed germination rate. Interestingly, the overexpression of PhFT1 suppressed seed germination rate in Arabidopsis. The expression of PhFT1 and PhFT5 is signifcantly higher in seed than in tissues including leaf and shoot apical meristem, implying their function in seed germination. Taken together, our results suggested that the PEBP family genes play important roles as regulators of fowering and seed germination in moso bamboo and thereby are necessary for the sustainability of moso bamboo forest.

This study assessed the genetic diversity of 10 accessions of Drepanostachyum falcatum collected from different localities in the Garhwal Himalayas, Uttarakhand, India , in the Hill bamboo germplasm collectionin Khirsu , using isozyme markers with four enzyme system (peroxidase, esterase, malate dehydrogenase and malic enzyme). Isozymatic analyses were performed with polyacrylamide gels (one system), bands were scored as binary data. Cluster analyses were conducted, using Jaccard´s similarity coefficient and UPGMA method. Very high degree of similarity was reported i.e. 63- 94% among different accessions. Dendrogram revealed two major clusters with three (A8- A10) and seven (A1- A7) accessions respectively. The results obtained suggested low genetic diversity in the species and urgent need of the in situ conservation of the natural genetic resources of the D. falcatum species. Key words: Genetic diversity; isozymes; polyacrylamide; Jaccard’s coefficient Introduction: Genetic conservation programmes are directed towards the long-term preservation of genetic resources either in situ or ex situ so that the potential for continuing evolution or improvement could be sustained. In situ conservation includes the organization and/ or servicing of natural supplies where species are permitted to stay in maximum environments with the lowest of management. On the other hand, ex situ conservation includes the use of botanic landscapes, field farms, seeds shops and gene banks and germplasm.

  • Disappearance of Nezasa Dwarf Bamboo (Pleioblastus Variegatus Makino) After Flowering in Grazing Grassland of Aso
    JARQ 31, 35-40 (1997) Disappearance of Nezasa Dwarf Bamboo (Pleioblastus variegatus Makino) after Flowering in Grazing Grassland of Aso Nobuaki KOYAMA and Yasuo OGAWA* Department of Grasslands, Kyushu National Agricultural Experiment Station (Nishigoshi, Kumamoto, 861-11 Japan) Abstract Nezasa bamboo (Pleioblastus variegatus Makino) is an important native plant for grazing of beef cows in the grasslands of Aso area. In 1992 nezasa bamboo flowered over 2,150 ha of grassland in the northern somma of Aso volcano. The current studies were carried out to investigate the effects of flowering on yearly changes in the above- and underground parts of nezasa bamboo. In the flowering year (1992) the amount of aboveground parts (44.0 g DM m-2 in June 1992) decreased to 19% of the value recorded (227.1 g DM m-2 in June 1991) in the previous year (1991). In the year after flowering (1993), the aboveground parts were scarce (only 1.3 g DM m-2 in June 1993). Dry matter weight of underground plant parts in the year of flowering decreased from spring to autumn, and the plants died after the summer. In the next year of flowering the dry matter weight continued to decrease. In 1994, the recovery of nezasa bamboo in grasslands of the northern somma of Mt. Aso was investigated. The rate of recovery was low and it was considered that 10 or more years would be required for the recovery of nezasa bamboo.

  • THE BAMBOOS of NEPAL and BHUTAN PART II: Arundinaria, Thamnocalamus , Borinda, and Yushania (Gramineae: Poaceae, Bambusoideae)
    EDINB. J. BOT. 51(2): 275–295 (1994) THE BAMBOOS OF NEPAL AND BHUTAN PART II: Arundinaria, Thamnocalamus , Borinda, and Yushania (Gramineae: Poaceae, Bambusoideae) C. M. A. S TAPLETON * This paper continues the systematic treatment of the bamboos of Nepal and Bhutan, covering four hardy temperate genera with semelauctant inflorescences and 3 stamens from the subtribe Arundinariinae Bentham. Arundinaria Michaux has leptomorph rhizomes, while Thamnocalamus Munro, Yushania Keng f., and the new genus Borinda have pachymorph rhizomes. The separation of these and related Sino-Himalayan genera is discussed. Sinarundinaria Nakai is treated as a synonym of Fargesia Franchet, a genus that is not known from the Himalayas. A new treatment of Himalayan Thamnocalamus species is given, including the description of two new subspecies of Thamnocalamus spathiflorus (Trin.) Munro, subsp . nepalensis and subsp . occidentalis, and one new variety, bhutanensis. T. aristatus is treated as a synonym of T. spathiflorus subsp. spathiflorus, and Fargesia crassinoda Yi is transferred and given new status as Thamnocalamus spathiflorus (Trin.) Munro var. crassinodus (Yi) Stapleton. Two new species of Borinda are described: B. chigar from West Nepal and B. emeryi from East Nepal. Six species of Fargesia from Tibet are transferred to Borinda, which thus comprises eight species. STATUS AND S EPARATION OF THE G ENERA Bamboos from the mountains of the Indian subcontinent and China with 3 stamens and terete culms were all placed in Arundinaria Michaux until late in the 19th century, when two genera for bamboos with spathate inflorescences were described. Munro (1868) described Thamnoca- lamus as a Himalayan genus with groups of one to four racemes at the tips of branchlets, each raceme being enclosed in a spathe.
