Wood Anatomy of the Tribe Swartzieae with Comments on Related IAWA Jo urnal, Vol. 17 (I), 1996: 45 -75 WOOD ANATOMY OF THE TRIBE SWARTZIEAE WITH COMMENTS ON RELATED PAPILIONOID AND CAESALPINIOID LEGUMINOSAE by Peter Gasson Jodrell Laboratory, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, Richmond, Surrey, TW9 3DS, United Kingdom SUMMARY The tribe Swartzieae, like the Sophoreae is a basal member of the Papil­ ionoid legumes, lying at the boundary between this subfamily and the Caesalpinioideae (Polhill & Raven 1981). Recent surveys have investi­ gated the wood anatomy of 42 out of the 48 genera in the Sophoreae (Fujii & Baas 1992; Fujii et al. 1994; Gasson 1994; Den Outer & Van Veenendaal 1992). Similar work is needed on the Swartzieae ( II gen­ era), and in the Caesalpinioideae on Caesalpinieae (47 genera), Am­ herstieae (25 genera) and Detarieae (55 genera). The wood anatomy of Swartzieae is described here, the genus Baphiopsis apparently for the first time, and comparison is made especially with Sophoreae. There is no clear delimitation between the two tribes, which is confirmed by cladistic analysis on 12 wood characters of Swartzieae alone, then com­ bined Swartzieae and Sophoreae. Baphiopsis (Swartzieae) and Baphia (Sophoreae) are so similar anatomically that they should perhaps be in the same tribe, and Bocoa is not uniform anatomically, and may not be a coherent genus. The data presented here will assist in reaching conclu­ sions on the correct delimitation of some genera and tribes in the Papil­ ionoid legumes. Key words: Swartzieae, Baphiopsis, generic wood descriptions. INTRODUCTION The tribe Swartzieae is placed in the Legume subfamily Papilionoideae by Polhill and Raven (198 1), and according to Cowan (1981) consists of II genera (see Table I). With the tribe Sophoreae, which contains 48 genera (Polhill 1981a), it lies at the bound­ ary of the Papilionoideae with the Caesalpinioideae. The phylogenetic relationships of the Swartzieae have been explored by Herende en (1995), including 19 Sophoreae and three genera of Caesalpinieae using flower, fruit, pollen and leaf, but not wood charac­ ters. He found that Swartzieae was polyphyletic and could not support the view that the tribe is basal to the Papilionoids. This paper describes the wood anatomy of at least one species from ten out of the eleven genera recognized as Swartzieae by Cowan (1981).

There is published information on the wood anatomy of nine of the eleven genera. Only Baphiopsis and Exostyles are not covered in the literature. This paper describes the wood of the former for the first time, but no material of the latter could be obtained from the most likely Brazilian sources. The wood anatomy of South American Swartzieae is almost comprehensively covered by Detienne and Ter Welle (1989) in the Caesalpiniaceae issue of Flora of the Guianas, which includes the genera Aldina, Bocoa, Candolleodendron, Lecointea, Swartzia and Zollernia. The Brazilian tree Harleyodendron from the Atlantic rain forest is described by Bedell in Cowan (1979) . Other relevant publications are given with each genus account. GENERAL WOOD DESCRIPTION Wood diffuse-porous. Vessels solitary, in pairs, some short radial multiples and clus­ ters, but in no predominant pattern. Vessel elements relatively short, with alternate, usually fine, vestured intervascular pits and simple perforation plates. Vessel-ray pit­ ting similar to intervascular pitting in size and shape, half-bordered. Fibres non-septate with slit-like, apparently simple pits. Axial parenchyma scanty paratracheal to vasi­ centric, aliform and confluent, and sometimes with bands of varying width , usually storied. Rays generally no wider than 5 cells, mainly homocellular, consisting mostly of procumbent cells, non-storied, irregularly-storied or storied depending on genus and species. Prismatic crystals in chambered axial parenchyma cells present in most species, also present in ray cells in a few species. GENERIC WOOD DESCRIPTIONS AND PREVIOUS LITERATURE Aldina - Fig. 1-4 About 15 species from the neotropics. The wood has been described by Dechamps (1980, A. insignis), Detienne & Jacquet (1983, A. aff. latifolia) and Detienne & Ter Welle (1989, A. insignis & A. latifolia) . The description here is based on one species, A. insignis. Vessels often in short radial multiples, some solitary. Fibres thick-walled, with vir­ tually no lumen . Axial parenchyma very abundant, aliform and confluent, in higher proportion than fibres. Axial parenchyma in strands of 2-4 cells, storied. Rays 1-4 cells wide and up to about 16 cells high, storied, homocellular, consisting entirely of procumbent cells. [Detienne & Ter Welle's description of A. insignis and A. latifolia recognises " 1 marginal row of weakly procumbent or square cells" (sic) and the fibres in A. latifolia (their Fig. 1.1) are in higher proportion in transverse section when compared with Figures 1 and 2 here of A. insignis.] Downloaded from Brill.com10/04/2021 07:40:11AM via free access 48 IAWA Journ al, Vol. 17 ( 1), 1996 Baphiopsis parvijlora - Fig. 5-9 Baphiopsis is monotypi c from the forests of tropical Africa. The wood appears not to have been described previously, and the voucher speci men in the Kew Herbarium, shown in Figure 5, is the holotype. Vessels narrow and relatively sparse, solitary and in small clusters of up to 4 or 5. Fibres thick-walled with little or no lumen. Axial parenchym a aliform to confluent, in lower proportion than the fibres. Axial parenchyma strands mainly 2-celled, but some fusiform, storied. Rays 1-4 cells wide and up to at least 30 cells high, low rays storied and the same height as one axial parenchyma storey, higher rays up to two axial paren­ chyma storeys. Co mpos ition of rays variable, many homocellular with entirely procumbent cells. Bocoa - Fig. 10-1 9 Seven species from the neotropic s, three described here: Bocoa alterna, B. proua­ censis and B. viridijlora. The most detailed account of the wood anatomy is by De­ tienne & Ter Welle (1989 , same three species as here), with other papers by Benoist (1931), Detienne et al. (1982, B.prouacensis) and Detienne & Jacquet (1983, B. proua­ censis). The genus is not uniform in its wood anatomy. Bocoa aiterna (Fig. 10-1 4) has abunda nt vesse ls in radial multiples up to at least 9, parenchyma that is sca nty paratracheal, in discontinuous bands up to 3 cells wide and irregularly-storied, non­ storied heterocellul ar rays that are I or 2 cells wide and up to about 40 cells high, and there are abundant prismatic crystals in ray cells in some samples.

Advances in Legume Systematics, part 10, Higher Level Systematics, pp. 5–35. Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. RECONSTRUCTING THE PHYLOGENY OF LEGUMES (LEGUMINOSAE): AN EARLY 21ST CENTURY PERSPECTIVE MARTIN F. WOJCIECHOWSKI Department of Plant Biology, Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona 85287 USA Abstract Elucidating the phylogenetic relationships of the legumes is essential for understanding the evolutionary history of events that underlie the origin and diversification of this family of ecologically and economically important flowering plants. In the ten years since the Third International Legume Conference (1992), the study of legume phylogeny using molecular data has advanced from a few tentative inferences based on relatively few, small datasets into an era of large, increasingly multiple gene analyses that provide greater resolution and confidence, as well as a few surprises. Reconstructing the phylogeny of the Leguminosae and its close relatives will further advance our knowledge of legume biology and facilitate comparative studies of plant structure and development, plant-animal interactions, plant-microbial symbiosis, and genome structure and dynamics. Phylogenetic relationships of Leguminosae — what has been accomplished since ILC-3? The Leguminosae (Fabaceae), with approximately 720 genera and more than 18,000 species worldwide (Lewis et al., in press) is the third largest family of flowering plants (Mabberley, 1997). Although greater in terms of the diversity of forms and number of habitats in which they reside, the family is second only perhaps to Poaceae (the grasses) in its agricultural and economic importance, and includes species used for foods, oils, fibre, fuel, timber, medicinals, numerous chemicals, cultivated horticultural varieties, and soil enrichment.

  • Reconstructing the Deep-Branching Relationships of the Papilionoid Legumes
    Cardoso, D. et al. (2013). Reconstructing the deep-braching relationships of the papilionoid legumes. South African Journal of Botany. 89: 58-75 https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.sajb.2013.05.001 Reconstructing the deep-branching relationships of the papilionoid legumes D. Cardoso, R.T. Pennington, L.P. de Queiroz, J.S. Boatwright, B.-E. Van Wyk, M.F. Wojciechowski and M. Lavin Abstract Resolving the phylogenetic relationships of the deep nodes of papilionoid legumes (Papilionoideae) is essential to understanding the evolutionary history and diversification of this economically and ecologically important legume subfamily. The early-branching papilionoids include mostly Neotropical trees traditionally circumscribed in the tribes Sophoreae and Swartzieae. They are more highly diverse in floral morphology than other groups of Papilionoideae. For many years, phylogenetic analyses of the Papilionoideae could not clearly resolve the relation- ships of the early-branching lineages due to limited sampling. In the eight years since the publication of Legumes of the World, we have seen an extraordinary wealth of new molecular data for the study of Papilionoideae phylogeny, enabling increasingly greater resolution and many surprises. This study draws on recent molecular phylogenetic studies and a new comprehensive Bayesian phylogenetic analysis of 668 plastid matK sequences. The present matK phylogeny resolves the deep-branching relationships of the papilionoids with increased support for many clades, and suggests that taxonomic realignments of some genera and of numerous tribes are necessary. The potentially earliest-branching papilionoids fall within an ADA clade, which includes the recircumscribed monophyletic tribes Angylocalyceae, Dipterygeae, and Amburanae. The genera Aldina and Amphimas represent two of the nine main but as yet unresolved lineages comprising the large 50-kb inversion clade.

Phylogenetic studies have placed Sophoreae sensu stricto (s.s.) as a member of the core genistoids. The recently suggested new circumscription of this tribe involved the removal of traditional members and the inclu- sion of Euchresteae and Thermopsideae. Nonetheless, definitions and inter- and intra-taxo- OPEN ACCESS nomic issues of Sophoreae remain unclear. Within the field of legume systematics, the Citation: Choi I-S, Choi B-H (2017) The distinct molecular characteristics of a plastid genome (plastome) have an important role in helping plastid genome structure of Maackia fauriei to define taxonomic groups.

E-mail adress: [email protected] Abstract: The disparity found in the molecular structures of compounds isolated from nine plants of the Swartzia genus indicates that the Swartzia species that furnished cassane diter- penoids and triterpenoidal saponins are more recent, since these metabolites have adopted the mevalonic acid route of formation, abandoning the shikimic acid/acetate route that produces the isoflavonoids found in the remaining species.
