Floral Development of Nelumbo nucifera (Nelumbonaceae)

International Journal of Plant Sciences, 2000
The floral development of Nelumbo nucifera was compared with that noted in previous studies of Nelumbo, Nymphaeaceae, and other basal angiosperms. Important features include developmental evidence of only two sepals, development of an androecial ring meristem, and an apocarpous gynoecium composed of ascidiate carpels that become embedded in an expanded

Typification of the sacred lotus Nelumbo nucifera (Nelumbonaceae)

TAXON, 2014
AbstractThe typification of the sacred lotus, Nelumbo nucifera Gaertner (≡ Nymphaea nelumbo L.; Nelumbonaceae), is discussed. The designation of the nomenclatural type is based on an assessment of Linnaeus’s original material and the literature cited in the protologue. The name is lectotypified using a specimen from Paul Hermann’s herbarium at BM.

Ecological relationship between floral thermogenesis and pollination in Nelumbo lutea (Nelumbonaceae)

American Journal of Botany, 2014
• Premise of study: Floral thermogenesis is an unusual floral trait with a well‐documented physiological process, and yet, there is limited understanding of how this trait influences plant reproduction. The current study was undertaken to gain a better understanding of how floral thermogenesis in Nelumbo lutea impacts pollinator attraction and ...

Structural Organization of Nelumbo nucifera (Nelumbonaceae) Plants on the Northern Border of Their Geographic Range

Inland Water Biology, 2020
Based on a biomorphological analysis, the structural organization of the Nelumbo nucifera Gaertn. plant is described. The shoot system is represented by semiroselatte polycarpic vegetative–generator axes; the shoot formation model is a monopodial semiroselatte. The anatomical structure of the N.

Development of Nelumbo komarovii Grossh. (Nelumbonaceae) from Seeds under Artificial Conditions

Inland Water Biology, 2019
The development of Nelumbo komarovii Grossh from seeds under artificial conditions has been studied. Five phases of N. komarovii morphogenesis are identified: the seed, the primary (main) shoot, the main-shoot system and anchoring shoots, curtain, and tuberiform structure.

A Review on the Taxonomic, Evolutionary and Phytogeographic Studies of the Lotus Plant (Nelumbonaceae: Nelumbo)

Acta Geologica Sinica - English Edition, 2014
AbstractNelumbo Adans. (Nelumbonaceae) is an important member of the early‐diverging eudicots. It contains two extant species: N. nucifera Gaertn. (the Sacred lotus), distributed in Asia and Australia and N. lutea Willd. (the American lotus), occurring in North America.

Genetic diversity comparisons of wild populations of Nelumbo nucifera (Nelumbonaceae) in Russia and China using microsatellite markers

Plant Systematics and Evolution, 2020
The wild sacred lotus Nelumbo nucifera is considered as an endangered aquatic plant in China and Russia. To date, the assessments and comparisons of the genetic diversity of wild populations of N. nucifera in Russia and China are very limited. Here, we sampled 15 wild populations of N.

Mating system and genetic diversity in natural populations of Nelumbo nucifera (Nelumbonaceae) detected by ISSR markers

Plant Systematics and Evolution, 2009
In this study, outcrossing rates and genetic diversity in natural populations of Nelumbo nucifera were investigated. The estimated multilocus outcrossing rate (tm) based on 28 ISSR loci was over 90%. Analysis of genetic diversity revealed that this index was high at the species level (Hs = 0.325, I = 0.514), but low within the individual study ...
