Sexual asymmetry in Scots pine seed orchards

100%

tom 47 Supplement

In seed orchards of Scots pine Pinus sylvestris L., the reproductive process is affected by the variation among the clones in fertility and abundance of male and female flowering. There were significant differences between the clones in relative proportion of male and female strobili as well as in seed yield. Thus, clones in Scots pine seed orchards may differentiate into "seed" and "pollen" clones. The least fertile clone produce 4.6 times less pollen than the most fertile clone, while cone yield of the least yielding clones was 5.5 times smaller than that of the most yielding clones. Amount of the pollen dispersed at the upper part of the crowns was two times greater than at the base of the crowns. The minimum amount of pollen needed for successful fertilization of an ovule was 1500 grains per cm2. There was no significant relationship between sexual asymmetry of the parental clones and height growth of their progeny.

The genus Tradescantia comprises about 70 species. In Poland Tradescantia x andersoniana is basically grown as an ornamental plant that is recommended for borders and to be planted around garden ponds. The present study investigated flowering as well as the micromorphological and anatomical features of some floral elements of Tradescantia x andersoniana W. Ludw. Rohweder ‘Karin’. The macro- and micromorphology of the flowers was examined using stereoscopic, light, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Spiderwort produces flowers with a diameter of 4.6 – 5 cm, which open early in the morning and close at noon. Non-glandular and glandular hairs grow on the abaxial surface of the calyx and on the apical part of the ovary. The glandular hairs develop a several-celled stalk and a unicellular spherical or elongated head. The staminal filaments produce chain-shaped trichomes. Striate cuticular ornamentation is found on their surface and on the epidermis covering the perianth. The striae on the cells of the stamen hairs run to the two poles of the cell. The pistil develops a wet stigma with unfused unicellular papillae. The cuticle on their surface is smooth, whereas on the style near the stigma it forms dense folds.
