Intraspecific Polyploidy in Veronica Anagallis-aquatica L. (plantaginaceae) from North India
The present study investigates the cytological and morphological analysis, and intraspecific polyploidy in V. anagallis-aquatica L. which sampled from Kinnaur district of Himachal Pradesh in India revealed the existence of diploid (n=9) and tetraploid (n=18) cytotypes based on x=9. The tetraploid chromosome count (2n=36) in the species confirms the earlier chromosome report from India and other...
متن کاملYet another new species from one of the best-studied neotropical areas: Plantago humboldtiana (Plantaginaceae), an extremely narrow endemic new species from a waterfall in southern Brazil
This article presents and describes Plantago humboldtiana, an extremely narrow endemic rheophytic new species from a waterfall in Corupá, Santa Catarina state, southern Brazil. The new species is unique in presenting a combination of type-G antrorse trichomes on scapes, pendulous inflorescences and 1-seeded pyxidia. Only one population is known to exist, despite intensive search efforts in near...
متن کاملSex Comb Variation in Four Drosophila Species from North India
Nature always acts as a showcase for phenotypic variations among closely related species and at individual levels within a species, driving the thought process to understand trait evolution. Understanding morphological trait variation and to unravel the underlying mechanism is one of the prime interests of modern evolutionary biologists. Insects, especially Drosophila are ideal model systems fo...
متن کاملTurbulence-induced resonance vibrations cause pollen release in wind-pollinated Plantago lanceolata L. (Plantaginaceae).
In wind pollination, the release of pollen from anthers into airflows determines the quantity and timing of pollen available for pollination. Despite the ecological and evolutionary importance of pollen release, wind-stamen interactions are poorly understood, as are the specific forces that deliver pollen grains into airflows. We present empirical evidence that atmospheric turbulence acts direc...
متن کاملPhysico-chemical characteristics of seed oils of some Litsea species found in North-East India
Seeds of six species of genus Litsea Lam. (FamilyLauraceae), viz. L. angustifolia Hook. f., L. cubeba (Lour.) Pers. syn. L. citrata Blume, L. confertiflora (Meissn.) Kost., L. glutinosa (Lour.) C.B. Robins., L. laeta Benth. & Hook. f. and L. lanuginosa Nees were collected from 7-10 years old trees and investigated for their oil content and physicochemical properties. Fatty oil content of these ...
