Intraspecific Pollen Morphology Variation and Its Responses to Environmental Factors of Wild Cathaya argyrophylla Chun Et Kuang Endemic to China

Abstract: Studying the pollen morphology of this remnant and endemic wild species of Cathaya argyrophylla can be of use for paleobiologists. During this study, 23 genotypes sampled from four natural populations in two regions of Hunan Province, China. A total of 460 pollen grains were analyzed for seven quantitative and seven qualitative traits (including five new traits). Three quantitative traits (B, P, and A) (Width of the saccus (B); Length of the polar axis (P); Length of the saccus (A)) and four qualitative traits… Show more

“…C. argyrophylla is discontinuously distributed in the subtropical mountains of Guangxi, Hunan, Sichuan, and Guizhou provinces ( Fan et al, 2020 ). The endangered status of C. argyrophylla can be attributed to poor germinability, poor interspecific competition, and low adaptive ability to new environments ( Xiao et al, 2022 ), as well as disturbances caused by broadleaf species during succession, which have led to drastic changes in genetic diversity and population structure. As the only extant species in the Cathaya genus, the extinction of C. argyrophylla would cause ecological destabilization, and could have profound effects on 10–30 species in its closely related ecosystem ( Forest et al, 2018 ).…”

“…As the only extant species in the Cathaya genus, the extinction of C. argyrophylla would cause ecological destabilization, and could have profound effects on 10–30 species in its closely related ecosystem ( Forest et al, 2018 ). Many scholars have conducted studies on the features of C. argyrophylla populations that have contributed to its endangered status, including community structure types, survival environment, reproductive patterns, and biological traits ( Vaario et al, 2006 ; Wang and Ge, 2006 ; Wang et al, 2010 ; Xiao et al, 2022 ). Artificial propagation has been attempted via a seedling raising and regeneration system ( Erfmeier et al, 2019 ; Zheng et al, 2021 ).…”
