2.10 Meesia Longiseta HEDW. Code: 1389 Anhang: II
2.10 Meesia longiseta HEDW. Code: 1389 Anhang: II KLAUS WEDDELING, GERHARD LUDWIG & MONIKA HACHTEL, Bonn Namen: D: Langstieliges Schwanenhalsmoos, Langstieliges Meesemoos, Gestreckte Langborste E: Long-stalked Thread Moss, Long-shafted Swan Moss, F: – Systematik/Taxonomie: Bryophyta, Bryopsida, Bryidae, Splachnales, Meesiaceae. Synonyme: Amblyodon longisetus (HEDW.) P. BEAUV. Kennzeichen/Artbestimmung: Meesia longiseta ist ein 4–8 (–10) cm hohes, akrokarpes, unverzweigtes Laubmoos von grün-schwärzlicher Färbung. Die Art wächst in lockeren, weichen Rasen (Abb. 2.9). Das Stämmchen ist bis in die Spitze wurzelhaarig und im Moose Querschnitt dreikantig. Die Blättchen sind mehr oder weniger deutlich in 3 oder 6 Rei- hen angeordnet und vom Stämmchen abgespreizt. Die 2–3,5 mm langen, spitzen Blätt- chen laufen deutlich am Stämmchen herab, sind oberwärts gekielt, ganzrandig oder an der Spitze etwas gezähnt. Ihre deutlich entwickelte Rippe endet unterhalb der Blattspitze. Der Blattrand ist flach. Die Laminazellen sind rechteckig bis rhombisch und etwa 14 µm breit. Die rötlichen, gedrehten Seten der synözischen Art können über 10 cm lang wer- den. Die langbirnenförmige, aufrechte Kapsel hat einen deutlichen Hals. Bei der Spo- renreife im Juni und Juli werden die mit 36–44 µm Durchmesser recht großen Sporen frei- gesetzt. Die Chromosomenzahl ist nicht bekannt (FRITSCH 1991). Differenzierende Merkmale zu den ähnlichen Arten Meesia uliginosa und M. hexasticha sind der nicht ein- gerollte Blattrand, die kleineren Sporen und der Rippenquerschnitt mit kleinen, inneren Zellen (zusammengestellt nach CRUM & ANDERSON 1981, FRAHM 1979, LIMPRICHT 1895). Abbildungen der Art finden sich bei CRUM & ANDERSON (1981, Fig. 296, 297, S. 628, 629: Blättchen, Blattspitze, Habitus, Kapsel) und FRAHM (1979, Fig. -
Molecular Phylogeny of Chinese Thuidiaceae with Emphasis on Thuidium and Pelekium
Molecular Phylogeny of Chinese Thuidiaceae with emphasis on Thuidium and Pelekium QI-YING, CAI1, 2, BI-CAI, GUAN2, GANG, GE2, YAN-MING, FANG 1 1 College of Biology and the Environment, Nanjing Forestry University, Nanjing 210037, China. 2 College of Life Science, Nanchang University, 330031 Nanchang, China. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract We present molecular phylogenetic investigation of Thuidiaceae, especially on Thudium and Pelekium. Three chloroplast sequences (trnL-F, rps4, and atpB-rbcL) and one nuclear sequence (ITS) were analyzed. Data partitions were analyzed separately and in combination by employing MP (maximum parsimony) and Bayesian methods. The influence of data conflict in combined analyses was further explored by two methods: the incongruence length difference (ILD) test and the partition addition bootstrap alteration approach (PABA). Based on the results, ITS 1& 2 had crucial effect in phylogenetic reconstruction in this study, and more chloroplast sequences should be combinated into the analyses since their stability for reconstructing within genus of pleurocarpous mosses. We supported that Helodiaceae including Actinothuidium, Bryochenea, and Helodium still attributed to Thuidiaceae, and the monophyletic Thuidiaceae s. lat. should also include several genera (or species) from Leskeaceae such as Haplocladium and Leskea. In the Thuidiaceae, Thuidium and Pelekium were resolved as two monophyletic groups separately. The results from molecular phylogeny were supported by the crucial morphological characters in Thuidiaceae s. lat., Thuidium and Pelekium. Key words: Thuidiaceae, Thuidium, Pelekium, molecular phylogeny, cpDNA, ITS, PABA approach Introduction Pleurocarpous mosses consist of around 5000 species that are defined by the presence of lateral perichaetia along the gametophyte stems. Monophyletic pleurocarpous mosses were resolved as three orders: Ptychomniales, Hypnales, and Hookeriales (Shaw et al. -

For permissions, please e-mail: [email protected]. Background and Aims Horizontal Gene Transfer (HGT) is an important evolutionary mechanism because it transfers genetic material that may code for traits or functions, between species or genomes. It is frequent in mitochondrial and nuclear genomes but has not been demonstrated between plastid genomes of different green land plant species. Methods We Sanger sequenced the nuclear Internal transcribed spacers 1&2 (ITS) Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/aob/advance-article/doi/10.1093/aob/mcab021/6145156 by guest on 08 March 2021 and the plastid rpl16 G2 intron (rpl16). In five individuals with foreign rpl16 we also sequenced atpB-rbcL and trnLUAA-trnFGAA. Key Results We discovered 14 individuals of a moss species with typical nuclear ITS but foreign plastid rpl16, from a species of a distant lineage. None of the individuals with three plastid markers sequenced contained all foreign markers, demonstrating the transfer of plastid fragments rather than of the entire plastid genome, i.e., entire plastids were not transferred. -

An Enigmatic Case in the Genus Podperaea (Hypnales
Arctoa (2011) 20: 107-118 INTRAFAMILIAL HYBRIDIZATION IN MOSSES? AN ENIGMATIC CASE IN THE GENUS PODPERAEA (HYPNALES, BRYOPHYTA) ГИБРИДИЗАЦИЯ МЕЖДУ ПРЕДСТАВИТЕЛЯМИ РАЗНЫХ СЕМЕЙСТВ У МХОВ? ЗАГАДОЧНЫЙ СЛУЧАЙ В РОДЕ PODPERAEA (HYPNALES, BRYOPHYTA) MICHAEL S. IGNATOV1 & IRINA A. MILYUTINA2 МИХАИЛ С. ИГНАТОВ1, ИРИНА А.МИЛЮТИНА2 Abstract A new species from China, Podperaea baii, is described. In addition to morpho- logical differences from the second species of the genus, P. krylovii (Amlystegiaceae s.l.), P. baii differs in the nrITS1 sequence, which is very similar to that of the genus Herzogiella from the phylogenetically distant family Plagiotheciaceae. At the same time, nrITS2 in P. baii is much more similar to Amblystegiaceae than Plagiothe- ciaceae. This case is the first report of the putative remote hybridization in mosses. Резюме Из Китая описан новый вид, Podperaea baii, который, помимо небольших морфологических отличий от второго вида рода, P. krylovii (семейство Amlyste- giaceae s.l.), отличается еще последовательностью ITS1, которая соответствует роду Herzogiella из филогетически далекого семейства Plagiotheciaceae. При этом последовательность ITS2 у P. baii значительно более сходна с Amblystegia- ceae, нежели с Plagiotheciaceae. Данный случай является первым примером возможной отдаленной гибридазации у мхов.

Eight species of Hygrohypnum occur in the Iberian Peninsula: Hygrohypnum cochlearifolium , H. duriusculum , H. eugyrium , H. luridum , H. molle, H. ochraceum , H. smithii and H. styria- cum . Of these, H. eugyrium and H. cochlearifolium are considered to be extinct in the Iberian Peninsula. Hygrohypnum alpestre and H. polare are definitively excluded from the Iberian bryophyte flora, since its occurrence at present or in the past could not be confirmed. Only the occurrence of Hygrohypnum ochraceum has been confirmed for Portugal. Keys, descriptions, illustrations, SEM photographs and distribution maps of the species of Hygrohypnum in the Iberian Peninsula are provided. Hygrohypnum /Amblystegiaceae / Iberian Peninsula / flora / taxonomy / distribution INTRODUCTION Taxonomic history of Hygrohypnum The generic name Hygrohypnum was introduced by Lindberg (1872) to replace the illegitimate name Limnobium used by Schimper (1853), who was the first to treat the genus as separate from the broadly conceived Hypnum Hedw. -
Inventory of Rare Bryophytes in Unique Wetland Ecosystems on the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest
Inventory of Rare Bryophytes in Unique Wetland Ecosystems on the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest Photo: L. Wilson 2010 U.S.D.A Forest Service Region 6 and U.S.D.I Bureau of Land Management Interagency Special Status and Sensitive Species Program Authors Clint Emerson is a botanist, USDA Forest Service, Rogue River Siskiyou National Forest, Gold Beach and Powers Ranger Districts, Gold Beach, OR 97465 Scot Loring is a botanist, Pacific Crest Consulting, LLC, Talent, OR 97540 Introduction The Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest (RRSNF) dissects a geographically diverse area of Oregon, creating a high level of endemism with regard to vascular plants. At this point much less is known about non-vascular plant diversity in the region so botanists on the forest proposed a project to inventory unique wetland ecosystems for Region 6 Sensitive, Strategic and Oregon Biologic Information Center (ORBIC) list 3 and 4 bryophytes (mosses, liverworts and hornworts). The project received funding from the Interagency Special Status and Sensitive Species Program (ISSSSP) for field work to begin during the 2009 field season. This report summarizes findings of the inventory. Wetland ecosystems are an uncommon feature of the steep and highly dissected Siskiyou Mountains in Southwest Oregon. They are dispersed more so within the Southern Oregon Cascade portion of the forest, but are still considered an uncommon feature on the landscape when compared to unique upland ecosystems such as prairies or rock outcrops. In comparison to northwestern Oregon and western Washington little information exists with regard to Sensitive wetland associated bryophytes in southwest Oregon. This may be due to the fact that large metropolitan areas with universities are mostly lacking from the region and therefore the expertise and funding to accomplish this type of work is not as available. -

APPENDIX III SENSITIVE PLANT REPORT AND BIOLOGICAL EVALUATION FOR ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT BURNT FORK, HOGAN CREEK, ROCK CREEK, SAGE CREEK, AND PROPOSED RED BUTTE ALLOTMENTS RANGELAND PROJECT Kim Reid Rear Plant Coordinator Custer National Forest April 2012 Appendix III – Sensitive Plant Report and Biological Evaluation -1- Summary Abstract: Based upon existing information, known locations, probability of occurrence, and probability of impacts, there may be impacts from action alternatives to individuals within Beartooth goldenweed known populations and impacts to individuals in suspected habitat of mealy primrose, small yellow lady’s-slipper, giant helliborine, threeranked humpmoss, upward-lobed moonwort, peculiar moonwort, western moonwort, and Hall’s rush within project area habitats, but the impacts would not likely contribute to a trend towards Federal listing or loss of viability of these species. There would be no impact to musk root, Barratt’s willow, and Shoshonea. The Proposed Management Alternative would provide improvement for sensitive plants habitats that may be vulnerable to grazing impacts in comparison with the Current Management Alternative. Both action alternatives comply with all pertinent laws, regulations and policy. Appendix III – Sensitive Plant Report and Biological Evaluation -2- INTRODUCTION There are no known endangered or threatened plant species in the project area. The three plants listed on the federal Threatened or Endangered Species List as “threatened” and occurring in Montana are water howellia (Howellia aquatilis), Spalding’s catchfly (Silene spaldingii), and Ute ladies’-tresses (Spiranthes diluvialis). Species occurrences and suitable habitat are only known on Forests west of the Continental Divide for water howellia and Spalding’s catchfly, and in the Missouri, Jefferson, Beaverhead, Ruby, and Madison River drainages for Ute ladies’-tresses. -
