Ruellia brevifolia (Pohl) Ezcurra (Acanthaceae): fenologia da floração, biologia da polinização e reprodução

Abstract: -(Ruellia brevifolia (Pohl) Ezcurra (Acanthaceae): flowering phenology, pollination biology and reproduction). The reproductive biology of Ruellia brevifolia was studied in two populations of southeastern Brazil. R. brevifolia is a shrublet that grows in dense clumps in open but shaded areas. This Acanthaceae blooms all year round and produces chasmogamous (CH) and cleistogamous (CL) flowers during the rainy and the dry season, respectively. Cleistogamy is of the "clymatic" type, and produces seeds in the most… Show more

“…The frequency of visits of the butterfly Parides anchises and of the bee Ceratina chloris to flowers of S. sylvatica was low, as was also recorded for these species on flowers of Ruellia brevifolia (Pohl) Ezcurra (Acanthaceae) in semideciduous forest of southeastern Brazil (Sigrist & Sazima 2002). Similar to the recorded in S. sylvatica, P. anchises was considered occasional pollinator of flowers of R. brevifolia due to its low frequency in the flowers (<10%), although this butterfly contacts the reproductive structures of flowers during their visits.…”

“…Similar to the recorded in S. sylvatica, P. anchises was considered occasional pollinator of flowers of R. brevifolia due to its low frequency in the flowers (<10%), although this butterfly contacts the reproductive structures of flowers during their visits. In that study, the bee C. chloris, as in S. sylvatica, was considered a robber, since it does not contacted the reproductive structures of the flower during visits (Sigrist & Sazima 2002). In Drymonia surrelata (Poepp.)…”

“…A maioria dos estudos sobre polinização de Acanthaceae no Brasil enfoca somente a relação dos beija-flores como visitantes florais, sendo poucos aqueles que avaliam todo o espectro de visitantes (BUZATO, 1990;MACHADO, 1990;PERREIRA, 1998;SIGRIST;SAZIMA, 2002;VOGEL et al, 2004;SILVA;NOGUEIRA, 2012;NADIA et al, 2013;STEIN;HENSEN, 2013) ou mesmo comprovam se os visitantes são realmente polinizadores efetivos das espécies investigadas. Desde modo, os beija-flores foram o grupo mais comum de visitantes florais e as interações destas aves com as espécies da família Acanthaceae serão tratadas mais adiante.…”

“…Das 29 espécies estudadas, 10 (34,5%) foram registradas sendo visitadas por abelhas (Tabela 1). Dentre as 10 espécies, quatro (Harpochilus neesianus, Jacobinia carnea, Ruellia asperula e R. brevifolia) foram visitadas somente de forma ilegítima, não havendo contato com o estigma durante as visitas (MACHADO, 1990;PERREIRA, 1998;SIGRIST;SAZIMA, 2002;VOGEL et al, 2004 (VOGEL et al, 2004). Por outro lado, a ausência de aromas pode ter contribuído para a evolução da polinização por aves (ornitofilia) em Acanthaceae (VOGEL et al, 2004).…”

“…O volume de néctar por flor produzido por C. grandiflora e C. javitensis é baixo, mas é compensado pela alta concentração de açúcares. A baixa quantidade de néctar por flor é atributo que pode ser importante na seleção dos polinizadores (Sigrist & Sazima 2002), e pode representar uma estratégia para que os animais visitem flores de outros indivíduos em busca de mais recursos. Com isso, gera um grande movimento entre os indivíduos da mesma espécie e promove a polinização cruzada (Santos & Machado 1998).…”
