Abstract
Carex qingyuanensis, a new species of Cyperaceae from Guangdong Province, China, is described and illustrated. The new species is morphologically similar to Carex peliosanthifolia F. T. Wang & Tang ex P. C. Li, but it can be distinguished by the racemose inflorescence branches appearing single (rarely binate or ternate) (vs. binate or ternate), one (rarely two or three) (vs. 1–3) spiked, male part of linear-cylindrical spikes much longer than the female part (vs. just male part short-cylindrical and slightly longer than female part), style base thickened (vs. not thickened) and perigynium horizontally patent with a short (vs. long and excurved) beak. Phylogenetic analysis, based on the two nuclear DNA regions (ETS 1f and ITS) and three chloroplast DNA regions (matK, ndhF and rps16), suggests that the new species belongs to sect. Siderostictaes.s. of subg. Siderosticta and shows a closer phylogenetic relationship to Carex scaposa C. B. Clarke.
Carex qingyuanensis 是产自中国广东省的一种香蒲科新种,本报告对其进行了描述并绘制了插图。该新种在形态上与 Carex peliosanthifolia F. T. Wang & Tang ex P. C. Li 相似,但其区别在于总状花序分枝为单生(很少为二出或三出)(vs.1-3 个)穗状花序,线状圆柱形穗状花序的雄花部分比雌花部分长得多(vs. 仅雄花部分为短圆柱形,比雌花部分稍长),花柱基部加厚(vs. 不加厚),花被水平开展,具短喙(vs. 长而外翘)。基于两个核 DNA 区域(ETS 1f 和 ITS)和三个叶绿体 DNA 区域(matK、ndhF 和 rps16)的系统发育分析表明,该新物种属于 Siderostictaes.sect.Siderostictaes.s. of subg. Siderosticta,与 Carex scaposa C. B. Clarke 的系统发育关系更为密切。
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
