Fine-scale clonal structure and diversity within patches of a clone-forming dioecious shrub, Ilex leucoclada (Aquifoliaceae).
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The mode of reproduction (sexual vs. asexual) is likely to have important effects on genetic variation and its spatial distribution within plant populations. An investigation was undertaken of fine-scale clonal structure and diversity within patches of Ilex leucoclada (a clone-forming dioecious shrub). METHODS Six patches were selected in a 1-ha plot previously established...
متن کاملChloroplast genome structure in Ilex (Aquifoliaceae)
Aquifoliaceae is the largest family in the campanulid order Aquifoliales. It consists of a single genus, Ilex, the hollies, which is the largest woody dioecious genus in the angiosperms. Most species are in East Asia or South America. The taxonomy and evolutionary history remain unclear due to the lack of a robust species-level phylogeny. We produced the first complete chloroplast genomes in th...
متن کاملMolecular Evidence for the Hybrid Origin of Ilex dabieshanensis (Aquifoliaceae)
Ilex, the largest genus of dioecious woody plants, is a good study system to assess the role of hybridization in speciation and evolution. Ilex dabieshanensis, a tree endemic to Dabieshan Mountains region, was initially described as a new species. Based on morphological intermediacy and sympatric distribution with its putative parental species, I. cornuta and I. latifolia, we proposed it as a n...
متن کاملShotgun sequencing for microsatellite identification in Ilex paraguariensis (Aquifoliaceae)1
UNLABELLED PREMISE OF THE STUDY Ilex paraguariensis is a native tree species from Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay that is used in the production of beverages, medicines, and cosmetics. Primers flanking microsatellites were developed to investigate genetic parameters in the species. • METHODS AND RESULTS Using microsatellites cloned from an I. paraguariensis shotgun genomic library, 25 pair...
متن کاملFine-scale spatial and temporal variations in diets of the pipefish Stigmatopora nigra within seagrass patches.
Diets of the pipefish Stigmatopora nigra were analysed to determine if food availability was causing S. nigra to distribute according to habitat edge effects. Gut analysis found little difference in the diets of S. nigra at the edge and interior of seagrass patches, regardless of time of day or season. Fish diets did, however, vary with seagrass density: S. nigra in denser seagrass consumed mor...
