Nutlet micromorphology of the genus Marrubium L. and allies and its systematic implication (Lamiaceae: tribe Marrubieae)
Nutlets of 20 taxa of the tribe Marrubieae were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and detailed descriptions of nutlet micromorphological features for all examined taxa are provided. The nutlets exhibited variation in size, shape, color and surface sculpturing. The nutlets shape of most species studied is ovate, but rounded, broad ovate, elliptic, lanceolate, triangular and oblong c...
متن کاملGeographic Variation in Flower Size and Flower-Visitor Composition of Two Bumblebee-Pollinated, Spring-Flowering Herbs, Lamium album L. var. barbatum (Lamiaceae) and Meehania urticifolia (Lamiaceae)
Geographic variation of flower size is potentially affected by various biotic and abiotic factors such as pollinator size, abundance of nectar robbers, and temperature. To elucidate the effect of geographic variation of flower-visitor fauna on flower size, we investigated two spring-flowering, bumblebee-pollinated herbs, Lamium album L. var. barbatum (seven populations) and Meehania urticifolia...
متن کاملTrichome Micromorphology of Egyptian Ballota (lamiaceae) with Emphasis on Its Systematic Implication
Trichomes of 5 taxa of the genus Ballota were examined by using light and scanning electron microscopy. The indumentum shows considerable variability among different species, and therefore, affords valuable characters in delimitation of species. The characters of taxonomic interest were presence of glandular and non-glandular trichomes, number of cells (uni-, bi-, trior multi-cellular), presenc...
متن کاملMorphology, anatomy and trichome properties of Lamium truncatum Boiss. (Lamiaceae) and their systematic implications
The anatomy, morphology and trichome distribution on the aerial parts of Lamium truncatum Boiss. were studied in order to understand the usefulness of these characteristics for systematic purposes. L. truncatum is a Mediterranean element which grows on shady hedge banks, glades, Quercus coccifera L. macchie and forest at an altitude of 300-1650 m in the eastern part of the Mediterranean region ...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of microsatellite markers for the cleistogamous species Lamium amplexicaule (Lamiaceae)1
UNLABELLED PREMISE OF THE STUDY Lamium amplexicaule is a cleistogamous plant that produces both closed flowers (obligately self-pollinated) and open flowers (potentially outcrossed). The conditions for the maintenance of such a mating system depend on the outcrossing rate of the open flowers, which can be estimated using neutral microsatellite markers. • METHODS AND RESULTS Forty primer pa...
