Identification of Ten Gibberellins from Sporophytes of the Tree fern, Cyathea australis.

چکیده
Ten gibberellins (GAs) have been identified by Kovats retention indices and full mass spectra from GC-MS analysis of purified extracts of sporophytes of the tree-fern, Cyathea australis. These include the known GA(1), GA(4), GA(9), GA(15), GA(24), GA(35), and GA(58) and three new GAs, 12beta-hydroxyGA(9) (GA(69)), 12alpha-hydroxyGA(9) (GA(70)) and 12beta-hydroxyGA(4) (GA(71)). The structure of GA(71) was established by the preparation and characterization of its methyl ester (as a metabolite of GA(4) methyl ester in a culture of prothallia of Lygodium japonicum).

Non-linear growth in tree ferns, Dicksonia antarctica and Cyathea australis
Tree ferns are an important structural component of forests in many countries. However, because their regeneration is often unrelated to major disturbances, their age is often difficult to determine. In addition, rates of growth may not be uniform, which further complicates attempts to determine their age. In this study, we measured 5 years of growth of Cyathea australis and Dicksonia antarctic...

متن کاملLife cycle matters: DNA barcoding reveals contrasting community structure between fern sporophytes and gametophytes
Ferns are the only major lineage of vascular plants that have nutritionally independent sporophyte (diploid) and gametophyte (haploid) life stages. However, the implications of this unique life cycle for fern community ecology have rarely been considered. To compare patterns of community structure between fern sporophytes and gametophytes, we conducted a survey of the ferns of the islands of Mo...

—Fern identification usually requires the use of mature sporophytes, since attempts to identify juveniles using morphological traits often provides unsatisfactory results. Here we examined young sporophytes found among boulders in a river basin of a xeric valley in central Peru. Attempts to identify these sporophytes first pointed to four different genera, two in Pteridaceae (Anogramma and Pity...
متن کاملPhotosynthetic Rates of Sporophytes and Gametophytes of the Fern, Todea barbara.
The photosynthetic rates of intact sporophytes or gametophytes of the fern Todea barbara grown in sterile culture were measured using an infrared gas analyzer. Sporophytes consisted of single whole plants with roots and leaves grown in tubes of agar. Gametophytes were grown as several plants covering the surface of the agar. Sporophytes had photosynthetic rates at light saturation of 8.50 micro...
