Ultrastructural study of pollen and tapetum development in Hydrocleys nymphoides, Alisma plantago-aquatica, and Sagittaria montevidensis (Alismataceae).

The Alismataceae family, widely distributed across tropical temperate swamps and wetlands, includes 15 genera post-merger with Limnocharitaceae. In Argentina, six genera are represented across three clades. Embryological characters, notably the male gametophyte and anther, are crucial in taxonomy due to their stability against environmental changes.

Phylogeography, genetic diversity and population structure in a Patagonian endemic plant.

Phylogeographical patterns provide valuable insight into the historical processes underlying diversification, and may provide a better understanding of biodiversity, dispersal modes, diversification times, extinctions, refuge areas and other species-/population-level processes. Here, we examine the genetic structure of , a representative of , which is an important emerging model in evolutionary biology and phylogenetic studies. We analyse genetic correlation, haplotype diversity and genetic structure.

Cytogenetic studies in four cultivated Amaranthus (Amaranthaceae) species.

In the present study, the chromosomes numbers were confirmed, 2n = 34 for Amaranthus cruentus Linnaeus, 1759, and 2n = 32 for Amaranthus hypochondriacus Linnaeus, 1753, Amaranthus mantegazzianus Passer, 1864, and Amaranthus caudatus Linnaeus, 1753. The distribution and variability of constitutive heterochromatin were detailed using DAPI-CMA3 banding technique. The position of the nucleolus organizer region (NOR) was observed using Ag-NOR banding (active loci) and fluorescent in situ hybridization (rDNA-FISH) in the four Amaranthus species.
