  • Nested Whole-Genome Duplications Coincide with Diversification And
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-17605-7 OPEN Nested whole-genome duplications coincide with diversification and high morphological disparity in Brassicaceae Nora Walden 1,7, Dmitry A.

Koch 1 1234567890():,; Angiosperms have become the dominant terrestrial plant group by diversifying for ~145 million years into a broad range of environments. During the course of evolution, numerous morphological innovations arose, often preceded by whole genome duplications (WGD). The mustard family (Brassicaceae), a successful angiosperm clade with ~4000 species, has been diversifying into many evolutionary lineages for more than 30 million years. Here we develop a species inventory, analyze morphological variation, and present a maternal, plastome-based genus-level phylogeny. We show that increased morphological disparity, despite an apparent absence of clade-specific morphological innovations, is found in tribes with WGDs or diversification rate shifts. Both are important processes in Brassicaceae, resulting in an overall high net diversification rate. Character states show frequent and independent gain and loss, and form varying combinations. Therefore, Brassicaceae pave the way to concepts of phy- logenetic genome-wide association studies to analyze the evolution of morphological form and function. 1 Centre for Organismal Studies, University of Heidelberg, Im Neuenheimer Feld 345, 69120 Heidelberg, Germany. 2 GYDLE, 1135 Grande Allée Ouest, Québec, QC G1S 1E7, Canada. 3 Department of Botany, Faculty of Science, Charles University, Benátská 2, 128 01, Prague, Czech Republic.

Patterns of flammability across the vascular plant phylogeny, with special emphasis on the genus Dracophyllum A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of philosophy at Lincoln University by Xinglei Cui Lincoln University 2020 Abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of philosophy. Abstract Patterns of flammability across the vascular plant phylogeny, with special emphasis on the genus Dracophyllum by Xinglei Cui Fire has been part of the environment for the entire history of terrestrial plants and is a common disturbance agent in many ecosystems across the world. Fire has a significant role in influencing the structure, pattern and function of many ecosystems. Plant flammability, which is the ability of a plant to burn and sustain a flame, is an important driver of fire in terrestrial ecosystems and thus has a fundamental role in ecosystem dynamics and species evolution. However, the factors that have influenced the evolution of flammability remain unclear.

  • Forests and Scrublands of Northern Fiordland
    80 Vol. 1 FORESTS AND SCRUBLANDS OF NORTHERN FIORDLAND J. WARDLE, J. HAYWARD, and J. HERBERT, Forest and Range Experiment Station, New Zealand Forest Service, Rangiora (Received for publication 18 January 1971) ABSTRACT The composition and structure of the forests and scrublands of northern Fiordland were recorded at 1,053 sample points. The vegetation at each sample point was classified into one of 16 associations using a combination of Sorensen's 'k' index of similarity, and a multi-linkage cluster analysis. The associations were related to habitat and the distribution of each was determined. The influence of the introduced ungulates, red deer and wapiti, on the forests and scrublands was determined. Stand structure was analysed to provide infor­ mation on the susceptibility of the vegetation to damage from browsing and on the history of ungulate utilisation of the vegetation. Browse indices were calculated to provide information on current ungulate utilisation of the vegetation. INTRODUCTION A reconnaissance of northern Fiordland was carried out during the summer of 1969-70 by staff of the Forest and Range Experiment Station. The purpose was to describe the composition, structure, and habitat of the forest and scrub associations, to determine both present and past influence of ungulates on them, and to establish a number of permanent reference points to permit measurement of future changes in the vegetation. The area studied lies between the western shores of Lake Te Anau and the Tasman Sea. The southern boundary is the South Fiord of Lake Te Anau, the Esk Burn and Windward River catchments, and Charles Sound; the northern boundary is the Worsley and Transit River catchments (Fig.

  • New Zealand Plants in Australian Gardens Stuart Read (Updated 27/5/2018)
    New Zealand Plants in Australian Gardens Stuart Read (updated 27/5/2018) Abstract: (11.6.2013): Raised in a large New Zealand garden full of native trees, plant lover Stuart Read was perhaps hard-wired to notice kiwi plants in Australian gardens. Over time he's pieced together a pattern of waves of fashion in their planting and popularity, reflecting scientific and horticultural expansionism, commercial and familial networks and connections across the Tasman. Stuart will examine a range of NZ plants found in old and younger Australian gardens, try to tease out some of the means by which they got here and why they remain popular. No cabbage, This constellation of asterisks Slaps and rustles Its tough tatters In the brisk breeze; Whispers of times past And ancient histories (Barbara Mitcalfe’s poem, ‘Ti Kouka’ (cabbage tree) catches well the distinctive skyline profile of this ubiquitous New Zealand export (in Simpson, 2000, 213) Introduction / overview New Zealand gardens have been introduced to and cultivated in Australian gardens from early in their ‘discovery’, trade and exchanges between the two colonies. Australian and other explorers, botanists, nurserymen, New Zealand settlers and others searched New Zealand’s coasts and bush, bringing plants into cultivation, export and commerce from early in the settlement’s colonization. New Zealand plants have had their ‘vogue’ periods, including as: A) - Economic plants (various timbers, kauri gum for shellacs and jewellery; flax for fibre, rope, cloth; greens for scurvy; poroporo for the contraceptive ‘the pill’); B) - Exotic ornamental imports into Australian gardens and beyond to English and European conservatories (and some warmer, southern) gardens and parks; C) - Depicted or carved as subjects of botanical and other artworks, commercial commodities.
