rDNA Loci Evolution in the Genus Glechoma (Lamiaceae).

Glechoma L. (Lamiaceae) is distributed in eastern Asia and Europe. Understanding chromosome evolution in Glechoma has been strongly hampered by its small chromosomes, constant karyotype and polyploidy.

Depth extraction of 3D objects using axially distributed image sensing.

Axially distributed image sensing (ADS) technique is capable of capturing 3D objects and reconstructing high-resolution slice plane images for 3D objects. In this paper, we propose a computational method for depth extraction of 3D objects using ADS. In the proposed method, the high-resolution elemental images are recorded by simply moving the camera along the optical axis and the recorded elemental images are used to generate a set of 3D slice images using the computational reconstruction algorithm based on ray back-projection.

Nutlet morphology and anatomy of the genus Lycopus (Lamiaceae: Mentheae).

Nutlet morphology and pericarp structure of 16 species in the genus Lycopus were studied by light microscopy (LM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and a detailed description of nutlet morphological features for all examined taxa is provided. The nutlets of all taxa in the genus Lycopus are well adapted to typical hydrochory (or nautochory) with an air-filled pericarp, and myxocarpy was not at all found. It is noteworthy that the nutlet morphology (in particular the shape of corky crests and corky ring and the distribution of glandular trichomes) and pericarp anatomy of Lycopus are unique and are well distinguished from the other genera in the tribe Mentheae.
