Estrutura foliar de Aechmea Ruiz & Pav. subgênero Lamprococcus (Beer) Baker e espécies relacionadas (Bromeliaceae)

Abstract: -(Leaf structure of Aechmea Ruiz & Pav. subgenus Lamprococcus (Beer) Baker and related species (Bromeliaceae)). With the aim of recognising useful features for taxonomic purposes, we studied the leaf anatomy of 25 taxa that are morphologically related (13 of Aechmea subgenus Lamprococcus, three of Ronnbergia E. Morren & André, four of Araeococcus Brongn. and five of Lymania Read). Although all leaves are hypostomatic and have a dorsiventral mesophyll with a hypodermis, they show some features that characterise… Show more

“…Silica bodies also occur in other Poales, such as Poaceae, Cyperaceae, Thurniaceae, Rapateaceae, Centrolepidaceae, Ecdeiocoleaceae and Joinvilleaceae , suggesting that this feature is a plesiomorphy for the order. In Bromeliaceae, the silica bodies are always of spherical shape and only occur in the epidermal cells as reported by Krauss (1948Krauss ( , 1949a, Tomlinson (1969), Flores (1975), Souza & Neves (1996), Sajo et al (1998), Aoyama & Sajo (2003), Arruda & Costa (2003), Proença & Sajo (2004), Scatena & Segecin (2005), Sousa et al (2005) and Proença & Sajo (2007) for both vegetative and reproductive organs. This fact corroborates the supposition of Prychid et al (2004) for whom the shape and localization of these bodies, although genetically controlled and little influenced by environmental factors, can present a systematic potential for some groups of monocotyledons.…”

“…The occurrence of raphides also has been registered in both vegetative and reproductive organs of Bromeliaceae (see Krauss 1948Krauss , 1949aBraga 1977;Brighigna et al 1984;Souza & Neves 1996;Arruda & Costa 2003;Aoyama & Sajo 2003;Segecin & Scatena 2004a, b;Sajo et al 2004Sajo et al , 2005Scatena & Segecin 2005;Sousa et al 2005;Proença & Sajo 2007). Within Poales (APG II 2003), such crystals occur in Eriocaulaceae, Joinvilleaceae, Sparganiaceae and Typhaceae (Dahlgren et al 1985) and probably represent a plesiomorphy for the order.…”

“…Other evaluations confi rmed the patterns of Billbergia and Dyckia (Proença & Sajo 2007), but differed concerning the genus Aechmea, revealing stomata located at the same level (Aoyama & Sajo 2003) or at a level lower than that of the epidermal cells (Proença & Sajo 2004). In this study, it was found that stomata are elevated in relation to the surface in D. maritima, corroborating the data from the literature for the genus; and elevated for A. calyculata, and, at the same level, for B. nutans, which goes against the existing data for the genera.…”
