Abstract

parents, distribution and habitat in the British Isles and to some extent in Europe, data on fertility/sterility, chromosome numbers and experimental work. I would question the sequence of the parents in the names (e.g. Salix pentandra× alba), often not in alphabetical order and differing from the index (S. alba× pentandra). The extent of the texts varies considerably depending on the available information and importance of the hybrid, but also on the personal interest of the authors and editors. A useful list of illustrations is given for each hybrid and nice colour photographs of several hybrids are included. Each hybrid description includes a table of hectad totals separately with each parent, and for all but the rarest spontaneous hybrids a hectad map is given showing the distributions of the hybrid and its parents. The maps are otherwise similar to those in the New Atlas of the British and Irish Flora but lacking age and status information. Unfortunately, status information is not given in the tables, either, and the reader cannot easily see the essential role of introduced plants in the hybrids, so the New Atlas of the British and Irish Flora must be consulted. Hybrids arise where the parents meet. So it is not astonishing that usually both (or all three) parent species are present in the area where a hybrid is noted – this is neatly seen in the maps. If one or both of the parents are absent from a hectad, it is usually matter of under-recording or disappearance. Hybrids are commonly sterile or with low capability to spread generatively, but they have often good capability to vegetative spreading to large vigorous colonies, which can establish for decades or centuries. Good examples are Circaea × intermedia, much more widespread than one of the parents (C. alpina) at present, Nuphar × spenneriana, rare but widespread whereas one parent (N. pumila) is restricted to northern Scotland, and Potamogeton × bottnicus with one of parents is completely missing from the British Isles. In case of Crataegus×media, its abundance in the north, outside the area of C. laevigata, tells of frequent plantings and escaping of the hybrid there. Most spontaneous hybrids between native plants are rare and exceptional, because plants have different genetic and biological mechanisms to prevent hybridising. However, some hybrids between native taxa are widespread in the common area of the parents, as, among others, in many hybrids in Salix and in Geum rivale × urbanum, Nasturtium microphyllum × officinale, Hypericum maculatum subsp. obtusiusculum × H. perforatum, Mentha arvensis × aquatica, Stachys sylvatica × palustris, Senecio jacobaea× aquaticus, Festuca pratensis × Lolium perenne andGlyceria fluitans × notata. Often disturbance of habitats breaks ecological isolation and makes meeting of parents more probable. In many widespread hybrids between native and alien species, such as Bromus hordeaceus × lepidus, Hyacinthoides non-scripta ×H. hispanica and Senecio jacobaea × S. cineraria, originally geographically isolated species have become together resulting many of the most widespread and best-established hybrids. Interestingly, hybrids between American Epilobiums and native taxa are in Finland clearly less often recorded, so may be under-recorded? Numerous hybrids have arisen accidentally or by purpose in gardens. Many of them are widespread in cultivation, but also freely escaped especially with garden refuse.

Hybridisation has great importance not only in developing cultivated plants but also as a continuous process going on in the native flora and between native and introduced species.Hybrid Flora of the British Isles with its 499 pages, sized 25 × 32 cm, is a unique compilation of the information on hybrids and this process, and it will be a standard book for botanists not only in the British Isles but also elsewhere in Europe.
父母、在不列颠群岛和在某种程度上在欧洲的分布和生境、生育/不育数据、染色体数目和实验工作。我会质疑名字中亲本的顺序(例如Salix pentandrax alba),通常不是按字母顺序排列,与索引(S. albax pentandra)不同。文本的范围很大程度上取决于可用的信息和混合的重要性,但也取决于作者和编辑的个人兴趣。为每个混合动力车提供了一个有用的插图列表,并包括了几个混合动力车的漂亮彩色照片。每个杂交品种的描述都包括一个表,分别列出了每个亲本的公顷总数,除了最稀有的自发杂交品种外,还提供了一个公顷图,显示杂交品种及其亲本的分布。这些地图在其他方面与《英国和爱尔兰植物新地图集》中的地图相似,但缺乏年龄和地位信息。不幸的是,表格中也没有给出状态信息,而且读者很难看出引进植物在杂交中所起的重要作用,因此必须查阅《新英国和爱尔兰植物图集》。杂交后代出现在父母相遇的地方。因此,通常两个(或所有三个)亲本物种都出现在杂交物种被记录的地区,这一点并不奇怪——这在地图上清晰可见。如果父母中的一方或双方不在一个公顷,通常是记录不足或失踪的问题。杂交种通常是不育的,或者繁殖能力较低,但它们通常有很好的能力,可以在几十年或几百年的时间里,通过营养传播到大的、有活力的群体。很好的例子是Circaea x intermedia,目前比亲本之一(C. alpina)分布更广,Nuphar x spenneriana,罕见但分布广泛,而亲本之一(N. pumila)仅限于苏格兰北部,而具有亲本之一的Potamogeton x bottnicus在不列颠群岛完全消失。以Crataegus×media为例,它在北方的丰度,在C. laevigata区域之外,说明那里的杂交品种经常种植和逃跑。大多数本地植物之间的自发杂交是罕见和例外的,因为植物有不同的遗传和生物机制来阻止杂交。然而,一些本地分类群之间的杂交在亲本的共同区域广泛分布,例如,在许多杂交种中,在Salix和Geum竞争× urbanum,小叶旱金莲× officinale, Hypericum maculatum亚种。贯叶草、薄荷、木犀草、青叶草、青叶草、草木草、二年生黑麦草、甘油三酯。栖息地的干扰往往打破了生态隔离,使亲本相遇的可能性更大。在许多本地和外来物种之间广泛的杂交种中,例如Bromus hordeaceus × lepidus, Hyacinthoides nscripta ×H。伊斯帕尼卡和黄花木,原本地理上孤立的物种已经结合在一起,产生了许多最广泛和最成熟的杂交品种。有趣的是,美洲毛蕨和芬兰本土分类群之间的杂交物种在芬兰显然很少被记录,所以可能被低估了?在花园里偶然或有意地出现了许多杂交种。其中许多在种植中广泛存在,但也可以自由地逃逸,特别是与花园垃圾一起。如果有的话,有些比原生父母更常见,分布更广。它们在植物区系、植被和景观中的数量和作用是显著的。例子包括合欢草、沙盆草、黄精草和绣线菊、蔷薇、榆木和水仙中的许多杂交植物。从清晰和形式上精确的描述、表格中精确的数字和吸引人的地图中,读者可以得到一种印象,即杂交并不那么困难,并且奇怪为什么它们在flora中被忽视了。但情况并不总是那么明朗。文本坦率地给出了许多情况下,困难存在于界定杂交,特别是在形态相似的亲本之间,当高度可育。特别重要的是像山楂属、桦树属、柳属、幼稚园属和Dactylorhiza属。也许有些混合定义在未来将不再适用。在许多混合描述中,编辑不得不提到数据不足,地图没有给出可能频率和区域的适当图像。所以在杂交品种方面,田间植物学家还有很多工作要做。杂交不仅在培育栽培植物方面具有重要意义,而且在本地植物区系中以及在本地种与引进种之间都是一个持续的过程。《不列颠群岛的杂交植物区系》有499页,大小为25 × 32厘米,是一本关于杂交植物和这一过程的独特信息汇编,它将成为不仅是不列颠群岛,而且是欧洲其他地方植物学家的标准书籍。
