Abstract

An intensive study of the embryology of Gymnospermium microrrhynchum was conducted to provide information regarding a discussion of the phylogenetic relationships of the genus, which is yet unstudied. Our results indicated that Gymnospermium is similar to other genera of Berberidaceae in terms of its embryological features. Nevertheless, newly reported and unique features are the well-developed endothelium and the undifferentiated seed coat type. Until the study of Gymnospermium, it may have been considered to be closer to Caulophyllum and Leontice in the tribe Leonticeae. These three genera share many morphological features as well as molecular similarities, by which they are kept in the same tribe, Leonticeae. However, very little detailed embryological data regarding these genera have been published thus far. Gymnospermium was characterized according to the basic type of anther wall formation as well as its glandular tapetum, successive cytokinesis in the microspore mother cell, two-celled mature pollen grains, anatropous and crassinucellate ovules with a nucellar cap, well-developed endothelium, its Polygonum type of embryo sac formation, its nuclear type of endosperm formation, and its undifferentiated seed coat type. In comparison with Nandina, there are many differences, such as the dehiscence of the anther, the cytokinesis in the microspore mother cells, the shape of the megaspore dyad, and the seed characteristics. Although we had no available detailed embryological information regarding Caulophyllum and Leontice, which are genera that are more closely related to Gymnospermium, we could deduce from the phylogenetic relationship that Gymnospermium, Caulophyllum, and Leontice are more closely related to each other than other genera of Berberidaceae on the basis of the seed characteristics.

속간 계통유연관계 해석을 위한 정보를 제공하기 위하여 현재까지 연구되지 않은 한계령풀의 생식기관 발생학적 형태 연구가 수행되었다. 연구결과 한계령풀의 생식기관 형태는 매자나무과의 다른 속들과 비슷한 점이 많았다. 그럼에도 불구하고, 내주피 내강벽의 발달, 미분화 종피 구조 등과 같은 새로운 생식기관 특징들이 밝혀졌다. 지금까지 계통학적으로 한계령풀속은 매자나무과 내에서 꿩의다리아재비속이나 Leontice속에 가장 가깝다고 인정되고 있는데 이들이 같은 족에 분류되어 있는 것처럼 분자계통학적 유사성과 더불어 많은 형태적인 특징들도 공유하고 있었다. 한계령풀은 기본형의 약벽형성, 분비형 융단세포, 화분모세포의 연속형 세포질분열, 약 열개시 2세포성 성숙화분, 도생배주, 후층성주심, nucellar cap의 발달, 내주피 내강벽의 형성, 마디풀형 배낭형성, 핵형 배유형성, 미분화 종피 패턴 등의 특징을 나타내었다. 과내 Nandina속과의 비교에서는 약의 열개 패턴, 소포자의 세포질 분열패턴, 종자 형태, 종피 유형 등 많은 형태적 특징에서 차이가 있었다. 비록 이 연구에서 근연속인 꿩의다리아재비속이나 Leontice속의 생식기관 정보를 충분히 이용할 수는 없었지만, 한계령풀속은 종자와 종피 형태를 근거로 매자나무과내에서 꿩의다리아재비속과 Leontice속에 가장 가까운 유연관계임을 추론할 수 있었다.
