Systematic and reproductive studies of Mimulus (Scrophulariaceae) in the Pacific Northwest : implications for conservation biology

Creator:: Meinke, Robert James
Abstract:: The Mimulus washingtonensis complex is a group of morphologically similar species centered in the Pacific Northwest. All are rare, and most are under consideration for listing as endangered. Morphometric and pollination data were used in developing a revised taxonomy for the group. Five species and two varieties are recognized. Mimulus...

A biosystematic study in the genus Aster, section Aster, in western North America

Creator:: Dean, Milton Lee
Abstract:: A biosystematic investigation was undertaken in 15 species and three subspecies of the genus Aster, in western North America. Previous studies had been based entirely on external morphological features, and it was believed that much could be learned about the natural affinities of the taxa by exploring their cytological and...

Cytotaxonomic studies in the Artemisia ludoviciana polyploid complex of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Estes, James R.
Abstract:: The Artemisia ludoviciana polyploid complex is a highly polymorphic assembledge of eight taxa in the Pacific Northwest, with a chromosome base number of x=9. A cytogenetic analysis of this complex was carried out to determine the sources of its variation, the types of polyploidy present, and the genetic processes active...

The gene-ecology of Crepis nana Richardson and Crepis elegans Hooker in Arctic and Alpine North America

Creator:: Legge, Allan Herbert, 1942-
Abstract:: A gene-ecological transplant study was made on populations of the Crepis nana and C. elegans complex from the Arctic and Alpine of North America. Transplants were collected from the Brooks Range, Eagle Summit, and Alaska Range in Alaska, the Rocky Mountains in Alberta, the Olympic Mountains in Washington, the Wallowa...

Biosystematics of a Western North American polyploid complex in the genus aster

Creator:: Guppy, Geraldine Anne Allen
Abstract:: Species relationships were investigated in a western North American polyploid complex in the genus Aster (Asteraceae). A combination of cytological, genetical, chemical, morphological and numerical approaches was employed. Fifteen presently recognized species were included in the study, and populations were sampled throughout most of the range of the group. Living...

Origin and distribution of polyploid Achillea (Compositae) in western North America

Creator:: Tyrl, Ronald J.
Abstract:: A cytogeographical study was made of populations of tetraploid (n=18) and hexaploid (n=27) Achillea millefolium (Compositae- Anthemideae) from the Pacific Coast states. There is a complex distributional pattern, involving overlapping ranges, mixed populations, migration of one form into areas occuplied by the other, pentaploid hybrids, and septaploid and octoploid plants....

A systematic and ecological study of Astragalus diaphanus (Fabaceae)

Creator:: Wright, Carolyn E.
Abstract:: Astragalus diaphanus is a rare plant endemic to the John Day River drainage of north-central Oregon. This species has several interesting features, including the dimorphism of its fruit and its geographical isolation from the two nearest taxonomically related species, which occur in Colorado. This study addressed the species' distribution and...

A biosystematic study of some North American species of Agrostis L. and Podagrostis (Griseb.) Scribn. & Merr.

Creator:: Carlbom, Curt Gerald, 1932-
Abstract:: A taxonomic investigation was made of 24 taxa belonging to the section Trichodium (Michx.) Trin., of Agrostis, and the genus Podagrostis. Experimental methods were employed, including: uniform garden culture of transplants and plants grown from seeds collected in natural populations; breeding studies; physiological and phenological investigations; cytological studies; ecological studies...

A revision of Juncus subgenus genuini (Juncaceae) in the Pacific states

Creator:: Lint, Harold LeRoy
Abstract:: A study was made of the subgenus Genuini of the genus Juncus in the Pacific States, California, Oregon and Washington. Extensive morphological comparisons, geographical distributions, habitat differences and observations of apparent presence or absence of natural hybrids provided the major data sources. Cytological studies were made, but were inconclusive. Eleven...

Phenotypic variation in diploid and tetraploid populations of Claytonia perfoliata (s.l.) (Portulacaceae)

Creator:: Miller, John M.
Abstract:: Meiotic chromosome counts from 200 populations of Claytonia (Montia) perfoliata (sensu lato) reveal a polyploid pillar complex based on three morphologically different, chemically distinct, and geographically defined diploids. The basic chromosome number is x=6. Diploid C. perfoliata Willdenow with linear juvenile leaves and deltoid mature basal leaves ranges southeastward from...
