University of Cape Town BOLUS LIBRARY 1 ABSTRACT The perennation of orchids is poorly understood, in particular that of the Orchidoidae. The understanding of perennation in the Orchidoidae is important because the root-stem tuberoid .is used as the one character defining the Orchidoidae as a monophyletic group. The root-stem tuberoid has never been examined for variation before. This project focuses on perennial growth in the Diseae in order to study the structbre and function of the root stem tuberoid in relation tp other organs and to contribute to the understanding of Orchidoid phylogeny. , INTRODUCTION Host te1perate monocotyledons have evolved underground resting or perennating organs for the climatically unfavourable season (Holttum 1955). A period of underground existence may allow a plant to escape unfavourable conditions, to counter environmental uncertainty, and to build reserves for flowering episodes (Calvo 1990). This is especially evident in the temperate members of the Orchidaceae and is made possible through sympodial growth· (Withnerj1974). Not .all temperate orchids have a resting period although they do have sympodial growth and do perennate.

  • Disa Orchids and Their Ex Vitro Seed Culture©
    124 Combined Proceedings International Plant Propagators’ Society, Volume 58, 2008 Disa Orchids and Their Ex Vitro Seed Culture© Ken Davey 211 Ngamotu Rd, New Plymouth Email: [email protected] INTRODUCTION Before I retired I was employed as Technical Officer in The Fernery in Pukekura Park, New Plymouth. Part of my job was to look after the very diverse orchid col- lection that the Fernery is known for. This extensive collection has been assembled over many years by George Fuller and others. This paper will look at some of the background in the development of the terrestrial orchid species Disa uniflora and its hybrids as export cut flower and pot plant crops in New Zealand (N.Z.). THE PLANTS Disa is a genus of over 100 species of terrestrial orchids that mainly occur in south- ern Africa in habitats that range from swamp to seasonally dry areas. Many of the species have small flowers and are of collector value only. They can also be a real challenge to grow ex situ. Disa uniflora, also known as “Pride of Table Mountain,” is centred on the Table Mountain area, where it grows in damp and or other seasonally wet sites such as stream sides or swamps and can even be found peeping out from under waterfalls. Although the species name is “uniflora” because the first plant described only had a single flower on each stem, other plants were later found to be multiflowered. They can have quite large flowers that range from red/orange to orange/gold with the oc- casional gold/yellow.

  • 77 CHAPTER 5 REPRODUCTION on the CLIFF Obligate Cremnophytes
    CHAPTER 5 REPRODUCTION ON THE CLIFF Obligate cremnophytes are exiled to life on a cliff and are effectively adapted to their vertical habitat where there is no (or limited) disturbance by larger mammals. Very few plants other than succulents can sustain life on a cliff, and the few non-succulent species that do survive, display a shift in reproductive strategy. Obligate cremnophytes cannot compete in conventional (non- cliff) accessible habitats and even if they do germinate in a non-cliff situation, the plants will soon be grazed. All plants are dependent on moisture, nutrients and sufficient solar radiation and cremnophytes have to cope with gravity in special ways. Furthermore, sustained life on a cliff demands an effective reproductive strategy. The overall reproductive behaviour of obligate cremnophytes deviates from that of their non-cremnophilous relatives in accessible habitats. The emphasis in this chapter is on cliff-adapted reproductive strategies. Apart from their sexual reproduction, most (204 or 93% of the taxa studied) obligate succulent cremnophytes have an in situ vegetative propagation backup. There is therefore a clear shift to vegetative propagation on the cliff and many cremnophytes are dependent on this asexual mode of reproduction. Both sexual and asexual reproduction are discussed below. Semisucculent plants such as Dewinteria petrophila [221], Stemodiopsis rivae [222] and Colpias mollis are less succulent but have additional strategies such as active cremnocarpy and cremno-amphicarpy. Colpias mollis and D. petrophila are almost ephemeral or weak perennials. The vertical habitat and the constant presence of gravity demand an effective seed dispersal strategy. Cliffs are known for updrafts and birds of prey are often observed as they glide on thermals above cliff faces.

These data are critically assessed, and the more prominent features are illustrated. The data are analyzed cladistically, and the robustness of the various components of the most parsimonious tree is assessed by a bootstrap analysis. Based on the cladistic analysis and the bootstrap analysis, a new classification is proposed for the Diseae.

  • Havens of Biodiversity, and Places That Allow People to Connect with Natural Habitats and Ecosystems, Will Become Increasingly More Valuable for Future Generations
    Supplement to Veld & Flora, Vol. 93(4) December 2007 1 booklet3_FINAL_for print.indd 1 2007/11/02 10:50:33 AM FOREWORD The Botanical Society of South Africa (BotSoc) has been a partner and supporter of the South African National Biodiversity Institute (SANBI) and its forerunners for over 90 years. This supplement to Veld & Flora focuses on other “biodiversity” (birds, mammals, insects, etc.) rather than just our core interest, which is “plant diversity”. It is an example of BotSoc embracing the change which Dr Bruce McKenzie has come about since SANBI replaced its predecessor Executive Director, BotSoc the National Botanical Institute (NBI) and also supports one of the principles contained in BotSoc’s Centenary Charter (see Veld & Flora, March 2006) which outlines our commitment to supporting SANBI and its mandate. In this regard the BotSoc warmly welcomes the first CEO of SANBI, Dr Tanya Abrahamse, and looks forward to working with her and her team in tackling new challenges, some of which she has spelt out in her foreword to the supplement.

  • Disa Staerkeriana (Orchidaceae): a New Species from Mpumalanga, South Africa
    Phytotaxa 203 (2): 192–198 ISSN 1179-3155 (print edition) www.mapress.com/phytotaxa/ PHYTOTAXA Copyright © 2015 Magnolia Press Article ISSN 1179-3163 (online edition) http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.203.2.9 Disa staerkeriana (Orchidaceae): a new species from Mpumalanga, South Africa DOUGLAS McMURTRY¹ & BENNY BYTEBIER² ¹Whyte Thorne, P.O. Box 218, Karino 1204, South Africa ²School of Life Sciences, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pr. Bag X01, 3209 Scottsville, South Africa; E-mail: [email protected] Abstract A new orchid species, Disa staerkeriana is described from the Hartebeesvlakte in the Mpumalanga Province of South Africa. It is a member of Disa section Stenocarpa and is affiliated to D. amoena and D. montana. An updated artificial key to Disa section Stenocarpa is provided. Introduction The orchid genus Disa Bergius (1767: 348) (Disinae, Orchideae, Orchidoideae) currently consists of 184 species (Govaerts 2014). It is largely endemic to continental Africa but extends to Madagascar (five species), Réunion (one species) and the Arabian Peninsula (one species). In South Africa, 143 species occur of which 128 are endemic to the country and 88 are endemic to the Cape Floristic Region, its centre of diversity (Galley et al. 2007). Following a molecular phylogenetic analysis (Bytebier et al. 2007a), the segregate genus Schizodium Lindley (1838: 358) was included in Disa and the genus was subdivided into 18 sections (Bytebier et al. 2008). After the publication of the authoritative “Orchids of Southern Africa” (Linder & Kurzweil 1999), six new Disa species have been described from South Africa. Three of these, Disa albomagentea E.G.H.Oliv.

    Use of ITS2 Region as the Universal DNA Barcode for Plants and Animals Hui Yao1., Jingyuan Song1., Chang Liu1., Kun Luo1,2, Jianping Han1, Ying Li1, Xiaohui Pang1, Hongxi Xu4, Yingjie Zhu3*, Peigen Xiao1, Shilin Chen1* 1 Institute of Medicinal Plant Development, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Peking Union Medical College, Beijing, People’s Republic of China, 2 College of Pharmacy, Hubei University of Chinese Medicine, Wuhan, Hubei, People’s Republic of China, 3 School of Bioscience and Engineering, Southwest Jiaotong University, Chengdu, Sichuan, People’s Republic of China, 4 Chinese Medicine Laboratory, Hong Kong Jockey Club Institute of Chinese Medicine, Hong Kong, People’s Republic of China Abstract Background: The internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) region of nuclear ribosomal DNA is regarded as one of the candidate DNA barcodes because it possesses a number of valuable characteristics, such as the availability of conserved regions for designing universal primers, the ease of its amplification, and sufficient variability to distinguish even closely related species. However, a general analysis of its ability to discriminate species in a comprehensive sample set is lacking. Methodology/Principal Findings: In the current study, 50,790 plant and 12,221 animal ITS2 sequences downloaded from GenBank were evaluated according to sequence length, GC content, intra- and inter-specific divergence, and efficiency of identification. The results show that the inter-specific divergence of congeneric species in plants and animals was greater than its corresponding intra-specific variations. The success rates for using the ITS2 region to identify dicotyledons, monocotyledons, gymnosperms, ferns, mosses, and animals were 76.1%, 74.2%, 67.1%, 88.1%, 77.4%, and 91.7% at the species level, respectively.

  • Nectar Spur Evolution in the Mexican Lobelias (Campanulaceae:Lobelioideae)1
    American Journal of Botany 92(3): 558±562. 2005. NECTAR SPUR EVOLUTION IN THE MEXICAN LOBELIAS (CAMPANULACEAE:LOBELIOIDEAE)1 MARGARET M. KOOPMAN2 AND TINA J. AYERS3 Department of Biological Sciences, P.O. Box 5640, Northern Arizona University, Flagstaff, Arizona 86011-5640 USA Phylogenetic studies are often hampered by the independent evolution of characters that may potentially obscure relationships. The adaptive signi®cance of the nectar spur and its evolution within the Mexican lobeliads (Campanulaceae) is considered here. The taxonomic delimitations of Heterotoma from the Mexican species within the genera Lobelia and Calcaratolobelia were tested. Inde- pendent molecular data were gathered to determine whether the Mexican spurred lobeliads should be treated as distinct genera. The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region from 18±26S nuclear rDNA and chloroplast DNA from the 39 trnK intron were sequenced from 14 representative species. Our data suggest that Heterotoma, as originally conceived, is a good evolutionary unit within Lobelia and that the presence of a nectar spur is an important morphological character that can be used in de®ning phylogenetic position. This study also suggests that morphological changes associated with hummingbird pollination have evolved more than once in the Mexican lobeliads, from small blue-¯owered, insect-pollinated relatives. Key words: Heterotoma; ITS; Lobelia; nectar spur; pollination; systematics; 39 trnK intron. A fundamental objective in evolutionary biology is the ex- order for successful mutualisms to occur, pollinators need to amination and discovery of the causes and effects of species be both pro®cient in nectar harvesting and effective in polli- origin.
