“…Although a few phylogenetic quandaries await resolution, our understanding of the diversity and phylogeny of Bromeliaceae is considerably more advanced than that of de Jussieu. New bromeliad species continue to be discovered (Aguirre-Santoro, Betancur & Holst, 2015;Aguirre-Santoro & Michelangeli, 2015;B€ uneker et al, 2015;Forzza & Leme, 2015;Gonz alez-Rocha et al, 2015;Leme, 2015;Monteiro & Forzza, 2015;Ram ırez et al, 2015;de Sousa & Wanderley, 2015), but with >3300 species already described (Luther, 2012;Govaerts, Luther & Grant, 2013), the discovery of an explanation of the drivers and mechanisms of bromeliad diversification has become one of the overarching aims of research into the family. To this end, well resolved, time-calibrated multi-locus molecular phylogenetic trees have been reconstructed, recognizing eight subfamilies: (Brocchinioideae, (Lindmanioideae, (Tillandsioideae, (Hechtioideae, (Navioideae, (Pitcairnioideae, (Bromelioideae, Puyoideae))))))) (Givnish et al, 2011).…”

Think tank: water relations of Bromeliaceae in their evolutionary context

Water relations represent a pivotal nexus in plant biology due to the multiplicity of functions affected by water status. Hydraulic properties of plant parts are therefore likely to be relevant to evolutionary trends in many taxa. Bromeliaceae encompass a wealth of morphological, physiological and ecological variations and the geographical and bioclimatic range of the family is also extensive. The diversification of bromeliad lineages is known to be correlated with the origins of a suite of key innovations, many of which relate directly or indirectly to water relations. However, little information is known regarding the role of change in morphoanatomical and hydraulic traits in the evolutionary origins of the classical ecophysiological functional types in Bromeliaceae or how this role relates to the diversification of specific lineages. In this paper, I present a synthesis of the current knowledge on bromeliad water relations and a qualitative model of the evolution of relevant traits in the context of the functional types. I use this model to introduce a manifesto for a new research programme on the integrative biology and evolution of bromeliad water-use strategies. The need for a wide-ranging survey of morphoanatomical and hydraulic traits across Bromeliaceae is stressed, as this would provide extensive insight into structurefunction relationships of relevance to the evolutionary history of bromeliads and, more generally, to the evolutionary physiology of flowering plants.

Background: Bromeliaceae family in Mexico has been the object of interest by botanists since 1789; their systematic study was approached from the 1970s onwards, and now there are significant advances in its taxonomic-floristic knowledge.Question: How many and which species of Bromeliaceae occur in Mexico? How they are distributed, and how many are endemic?Study site: México, 1887-2017.Methods: Based on the study of the Mexican Bromeliaceae, including botanical collection, literature review, and revision, analysis and determination of specimens in 50 herbaria, data about species richness, Mexican endemics, and distribution of their taxa in the country, were obtained.Results: In Mexico are represented four of the eight subfamilies of Bromeliaceae, 19 genera, 422 species, and 8 infraespecific taxa. The genera with the highest number of species in the country are Tillandsia (230/54.5 %), Hechtia (71/16.8 %) and Pitcairnia (50/11.8 %). 318 of the Bromeliaceae species are endemics to Mexico, as well as Ursulaea and Viridantha genera; 172 species are microendemic. The entity with the highest number of taxa is Oaxaca, followed by Chiapas, Veracruz and Guerrero. Tlaxcala and Baja California Sur have the lowest species number. Baja California, Baja California Sur, Campeche, Ciudad de México, San Luis Potosí, Sonora, Tabasco y Tlaxcala have not strict endemic taxa.Conclusion: Although progress in the knowledge of Mexican Bromeliaceae has been constant, exploration and recollection work is still required before concluding the Mexican bromeliad flora. It is also necessary to promote studies considering aspects of conservation and sustainable use.

Antecedentes y Objetivos: A pesar del intenso trabajo florístico y taxonómico que se ha realizado en el estado de Morelos, aún hay áreas poco exploradas.En este estudio se presenta el inventario florístico de las plantas vasculares que crecen en los cerros La Cantera y Delgado, localizados dentrode la zona arqueológica de Chalcatzingo, municipio Jantetelco, Morelos, México.Métodos: Para la realización del trabajo, durante los años 2014 a 2017 se hicieron salidas de campo para recolectar ejemplares fértiles, los cualesfueron secados y posteriormente identificados con claves especializadas. La determinación taxonómica se verificó con material de herbario, y enalgunos casos fue confirmada por especialistas.Resultados clave: En total se registraron 85 familias, 285 géneros, 434 especies con 27 categorías infraespecíficas de plantas vasculares. Las eudicotiledóneasfueron el grupo más diverso con 66 familias, 210 géneros y 305 especies, seguidas por las monocotiledóneas con diez familias, 57 géneros y100 especies, las pteridofitas con ocho familias, 15 géneros y 25 especies y las magnoliides con tres familias, tres géneros y cuatro especies. Tambiénse reportan nueve nuevos registros a nivel específico para el estado.Conclusiones: La zona de estudio alberga 42.7% de las familias, 26.6% de los géneros y 12.4% de las especies registradas hasta el momento paraMorelos, lo que confirma la importancia no solo cultural, sino también biológica del sitio, y pone de manifiesto la necesidad de continuar con la exploraciónbotánica en esta parte de Morelos.Palabras clave: angiospermas, bosque tropical caducifolio, nuevos registros, riqueza.
