“…As a result of this huge production, their pollen may remain on the ground for long contaminating samples in periods beyond the time when it is produced and released. Especially for Pinus, which was the most abundant pollen taxon after either method, its dominance is related to the fact that the very light pollen that it produces gets easily transported (Pidek et al 2010), easier than that of other Pinaceae members. Such a transport was confirmed by Van der Knaap (2001); using Tauber traps, he found higher amounts of Pinus pollen above the treeline than in lower mountainous areas, what indicates upslope transport by wind currents.…”

Σκοπός της διατριβής ήταν (α) η ανάπτυξη κατάλληλης μεθοδολογίας ανίχνευσης και ταυτοποίησης γύρης σε περιβαλλοντικά δείγματα με εφαρμογή μοριακών προσεγγίσεων και (β) η εφαρμογή αυτής της μεθοδολογίας για την ανίχνευση χωρικών και χρονικών προτύπων της αερομεταφερόμενης γύρης σε μια υψομετρική διαβάθμιση και τη διερεύνηση της δυνατότητας να χρησιμοποιηθεί η προσέγγιση metabarcoding για την βιοπαρακολούθηση των αλλαγών της βλάστησης. Αναπτύχθηκε κατάλληλο πρωτόκολλο επεξεργασίας δειγμάτων διαφορετικού τύπου και πολυπλοκότητας προς απομόνωση του DNA γύρης, χρησιμοποιήθηκαν οι μέθοδοι αλληλούχισης Sanger και νέας γενιάς (NGS) και συγκρίθηκαν τα αποτελέσματα που προέκυψαν με τα προερχόμενα από την κλασική μέθοδο ταυτοποίησης γύρης με μικροσκόπιο. Το πρωτόκολλο αυτό σε συνδυασμό με τη μέθοδο NGS εφαρμόστηκε σε περιβαλλοντικά δείγματα από έξι οικοτόπους των Ιταλικών Άλπεων (εθνικό πάρκο Paneveggio–Pale di San Martino) ενώ κατασκευάστηκε μια τοπική βάση δεδομένων με αλληλουχίες DNA για τα taxa γύρης της περιοχής. Παρέχοντας υψηλής ανάλυσης αποτελέσματα, η προσέγγιση metabarcoding μπορεί να εφαρμοστεί για εκτίμηση της φυτικής βιοποικιλότητας και για την παρακολούθηση αλλαγών στη βλάστησης, κυρίως αυτών που αφορούν στη σύνθεση παρά στην αφθονία των ειδών.

“…Annual pollen sums of Pinus collected in Calypsobyen by mosses are comparable with values obtained by van der Knaap (1988), where the number of long distance transported pollen grains was 2-6 grains cm -2 yr −1 . However, Pinus pollen production exhibits dramatic year-to-year variations, controlled largely by July temperatures of the previous year (Hicks 2001;van der Knaap et al 2001;Pidek et al 2010). Modelling approaches to pollen-vegetation relationships in SE Poland revealed that a major proportion of Pinus pollen collected by Tauber traps was deposited up to 4.5 km from the source area (Poska and Pidek 2010).…”

Spitsbergen is the largest island in the Svalbard Archipelago (Norway) that has been permanently populated. The harsh Arctic climate prevents development of large vascular plants such as trees. A two-year aerobiological survey was conducted within the framework of two consecutive polar expeditions (2014 and 2015) in Spitsbergen (Calypsobyen, Bellsund). The air quality was measured continuously from June/July to August using a 7-day volumetric air sampler, Tauber trap and moss specimens. Collected air samples and gravimetric pollen deposits were processed following transfer to sterile laboratory conditions and analyzed with the aid of light microscopy. Days when pine pollen grains were detected in the air were selected for further analysis. Clusters of back-trajectories, computed using the Hybrid Single Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory model in combination with ArcGIS software as well as the Flextra trajectory model, showed the movement of air masses to the sampling location at Hornsund, and thus indicated the likely origin of pollen grains. The GlobCover 2009 and CORINE Land Cover 2012 datasets were employed to establish the distribution of coniferous forests in the areas of interest. Conclusions were drawn based on the analyses of the

“…Among the conifers, Pinus (saccate grain, regional taxon) showed high frequency in the pollen assemblages. This can be attributed to its high pollen productivity and pollen dispersal (Andersen, 1970;Bhattacharayya, 1989;Traverse, 2007;Pidek et al, 2010;Ertl et al 2012;Kar et al, 2015Kar et al, , 2016Quamar et al, 2018a, b;Bajpai and Kar, 2018;Quamar, 2020; Polygonum plebeium, the sole representative of marshy/wetland taxa (mean < 0.05%), aquatic taxa (mean < 0.5%). algal remains (mean < 0.5%), rare.…”

An understanding of the relationship between modern pollen and vegetation is a prerequisite for reconstruction of vegetation and climate change from fossil pollen records. We conducted palynological studies of thirty-five surface soil samples from the Jammu region of India, which revealed that Pinus, among the conifers (regional needle-leaved taxa), is over-represented in the pollen assemblage due to its high production and effective dispersal of pollen. Other coniferous and broadleaved (regional and/or extra-regional) taxa have comparatively lower values in the pollen assemblages, similar to the representation of subtropical deciduous forest elements (regional), as well as shrubby (regional and/or extra-regional) taxa. This inconsistency in the pollen assemblage could be due to long-distance transport of the former by wind and/or water from the higher reaches of the Himalayas, and also because the latter have an entomogamous pollination syndrome and are not high pollen producers. The recovered pollen assemblage presents a distorted picture of the extant vegetation; hence, caution should be exercised in interpreting fossil pollen records from the study area. Principal component analysis (PCA) shows variability in the distribution of pollen from different sites in the Jammu region, perhaps the result of transport (by wind and/ or water), altitude and/or edaphic factors of the Himalayan terrain. The study should improve our understanding of the modern pollen-vegetation relationship and aid further calibration and interpretation of fossil pollen records.
