  • Wood Functional Anatomy of Chiococca Alba Hitch
    Acta Biológica Catarinense 2017 Jan-Jun;4(1):52-61 Wood functional anatomy of Chiococca alba Hitch. (Rubiaceae) from cerrado Anatomia funcional da madeira de Chiococca alba Hitch. (Rubiaceae) de cerrado João Carlos Ferreira de MELO JÚNIOR1, 2, Maick William AMORIM¹, Gustavo Borda de OLIVEIRA¹ & Celso Voos VIEIRA¹ ABSTRACT Recebido em: 22 mar. 2017 The wood anatomy is able to evidence systematic and ecological aspects associated with Aceito em: 12 jun. 2017 the evolution and functionality of the secondary xylem. The present study was carried out using wood of Chiococca alba (Rubiaceae) from cerrado (savannah), to describe its anatomy and to verify if the hydraulic architecture of this species corroborates the theory that postulates the functional tendency that optimizes the transport efficiency associated with safety. The anatomical analysis followed the conventional protocols of wood anatomy. Different indexes of wood hydraulics quantification were calculated, such as solitary vessels index, vessel grouping, conductivity, vessel collapse, theoretical resistance to vessel implosion and mesomorphism. The structural characteristics described for C. alba are in agreement with the general anatomical descriptions for the Rubiaceae family that relate the presence of exclusively solitary vessels and small diameter, simple perforation plates, alternate intervessel pits, apotracheal parenchyma in species with non-septate fibers and narrow and heterogeneous rays. The calculated indexes showed that C. alba is a xerophyte species with great resistance to the collapse of the vessels during the transport of water, little vulnerability to embolism and relative efficiency in the transport when compared to other species of its subfamily (Cinchonoideae) in function of the typical low water availability of the savannah soil.

Torres Robles Marceo Arturi Nuncia Tur Director Codirectora Facultad de Ciencias Naturales y Museo Universidad Nacional de La Plata Año 2009 1 El tala (Celtis tala), no obstante ser el árbol más típico de la Flora bonariense es quizá uno de nuestros vegetales de área geográfica menos conocida(…) Los autores modernos, especialmente los botánicos, poco se han ocupado de esta especie a pesar de haber sido uno de los raros árboles que forman bosques naturales cerca de la Capital Federal. Cuanto más avanza el tiempo y la civilización transforma el medio, más difícil será conocer el área prístina de esta especie. Por esta razón - y antes que la destrucción sea más intensa-, he querido registrar aquí las localidades donde lo he visto crecer naturalmente(…) El observador que tenga oportunidad de verificar la existencia de bosques en otras localidades que las que menciono aquí, podrá complementar esta contribución y hacer más exacto el conocimiento del área de este interesante árbol bonariense.

Communicating Editor: Andrea Weeks Abstract—The Hymenodicteae-Naucleeae clade is a predominantly Paleotropical group with 220 species in 28 genera. The phylogenetic relationships and generic limits within Naucleeae have previously been assessed using combined molecular-morphological data, however the status of some genera remains questionable. The evolutionary relationships within Hymenodictyeae have never been investigated before. We performed phylogenetic analyses of the Hymenodictyeae-Naucleeae clade using nuclear [nrETS; nrITS] and chloroplast [ndhF; rbcL; rps16; trnT-F] data and a large sampling of both tribes. Our study supports the monophyly of the tribes, all subtribes of Naucleeae (Adininae, Breoniinae, Cephalanthinae, Corynantheinae, Mitragyninae, Naucleinae, and Uncariinae), and the Hymenodictyeae genera Hymenodictyon and Paracorynanthe. In Naucleeae, the monotypic genera Adinauclea, Metadina,andPertusadina are nested within Adina, Mitragyna within Fleroya, Ludekia, Myrmeconauclea,andOchreinauclea within Neonauclea,andBurttdavya and Sarcocephalus within Nauclea. Corynanthe and Pausinystalia are mutually paraphyletic. We provisionally maintain the current generic status of Neonauclea and its allied genera, pending further study.

Academic Editor: Marcello Iriti Received: 13 June 2015 / Accepted: 13 July 2015 / Published: 22 July 2015 Abstract: This study describes some characteristics of the Rubiaceae family pertaining to the occurrence and distribution of secondary metabolites in the main genera of this family. It reports the review of phytochemical studies addressing all species of Rubiaceae, published between 1990 and 2014. Iridoids, anthraquinones, triterpenes, indole alkaloids as well as other varying alkaloid subclasses, have shown to be the most common. These compounds have been mostly isolated from the genera Uncaria, Psychotria, Hedyotis, Ophiorrhiza and Morinda. The occurrence and distribution of iridoids, alkaloids and anthraquinones point out their chemotaxonomic correlation among tribes and subfamilies. From an evolutionary point of view, Rubioideae is the most ancient subfamily, followed by Ixoroideae and finally Cinchonoideae. The chemical biosynthetic pathway, which is not so specific in Rubioideae, can explain this and large amounts of both iridoids and indole alkaloids are produced. In Ixoroideae, the most active biosysthetic pathway is the one that produces iridoids; while in Cinchonoideae, it produces indole alkaloids together with other alkaloids. The chemical biosynthetic pathway now supports this botanical conclusion.

Box 9514, 2300 RA Leiden, the Netherlands Received March 2006; accepted for publication September 2006 The tribe Naucleeae has recently been recircumscribed on the basis of both morphological and molecular [rbcL, trnT- F, internal transcribed spacer (ITS)] evidence, and has been found to be the sister group of the tribe Hymenodictyeae Razafim. & B. Bremer. In order to find pollen morphological support for this new classification, the pollen and orb- icules of 65 species, representing 23 Naucleeae and the two Hymenodictyeae genera, were investigated by scanning electron and light microscopy. Naucleeae pollen is very small (< 20 µm) to small (20–30 µm) and its shape in equatorial view is suboblate to spheroidal or, more rarely, subprolate. Three compound apertures are present, each comprising a long and narrow ectocolpus, a circular to slightly lolongate mesoporus, and an often H-shaped endoap- erture.
