A molecular phylogeny of the genus Alloteropsis (Panicoideae, Poaceae) suggests an evolutionary reversion from C4 to C3 photosynthesis
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The grass Alloteropsis semialata is the only plant species with both C(3) and C(4) subspecies. It therefore offers excellent potential as a model system for investigating the genetics, physiology and ecological significance of the C(4) photosynthetic pathway. Here, a molecular phylogeny of the genus Alloteropsis is constructed to: (a) confirm the close relationship between t...
متن کاملThe genus Salfacarus ( Acari : Opilioacarida ) in Madagascar
The opilioacarid genus Salfacarus in Madagascar is revised, with description of four new species, S. antsirananensis, S. kirindiensis, S. mahafaliensis, and S. ranobensis, and a new delimitation for the type species, S. legendrei. Salfacarus is widespread in Madagascar but individual species appear restricted to relatively small areas. A key to the adults of Salfacarus in Madagascar is provided.
متن کاملEleven diverse nuclear-encoded phylogenetic markers for the subfamily Panicoideae (Poaceae).
PREMISE OF THE STUDY Polyploidy is common in the grasses and low-copy nuclear loci are needed to further our understanding of phylogenetic relationships. METHODS AND RESULTS Genetic and genomic resources were combined to identify loci known to influence plant and inflorescence architecture. Degenerate primers were designed and tested to amplify regions of 11 nuclear-encoded loci across the pa...
متن کاملEvidence of programmed cell death during microsporogenesis in an interspecific Brachiaria (Poaceae: Panicoideae: Paniceae) hybrid.
Morphological changes have been investigated during plant programmed cell death (PCD) in the last few years due to the new interest in a possible apoptotic-like phenomenon existing in plants. Although PCD has been reported in several tissues and specialized cells in plants, there have been few reports of its occurrence during microsporogenesis. The present study reports a typical process of PCD...
متن کاملOrigin of a polyploid accession of Brachiaria humidicola (Poaceae: Panicoideae: Paniceae).
Brachiaria humidicola, a species adapted to poorly drained and infertile acid soils, is widely used throughout the tropics. Cytological characterization of 54 accessions of B. humidicola for breeding purposes revealed 2n = 36, 42, and 54 chromosomes. One accession (H030), with 2n = 42 chromosomes, showed a different meiotic behavior. In most accessions from the genus Brachiaria previously studi...
