Biologia reprodutiva de Miconia angelana (Melastomataceae), endêmica da Serra da Canastra, Minas Gerais

Abstract: − (Reproductive biology of Miconia angelana (Melastomataceae), endemic from Serra da Canastra, Minas Gerais). The reproductive biology of M. angelana R. Romero & R. Goldenberg was studied by controlled hand pollinations, pollen viability, pollen tube growth and seed germination. Miconia angelana fl owered in late October and early November, presented self-compatibity and was independent of buzz pollination. The autogamy, facilitated by the two large pores of the anthers and stamens symmetrically disposed aroun… Show more

“…Chittka et al (1999) suggest that in the search for a preferred species, bees could neglect flowers of other species of plants that offer as much or more of the resource than the preferred plants. In addition, pollen is not always a reliable indicator of a nectar source because there are no in depth studies of how the availability of resources varies even within the same genus or of the floral and reproductive biology of a large number of species of plants in areas such as the caatinga (Iwama & Melhem, 1979;Machado & Lopes, 2004;Santos et al, 2010;Roubik & Moreno, 2013). Therefore, it is essential to carry out more field studies to ratify or rectify the inferences made based on pollen spectra (Roubik & Moreno, 2013).…”

“…Espécies autógamas apresentam vantagens ecológicas como fixação de genes favoráveis na população (Barringer 2007), "segurança reprodutiva" em ambientes com populações pequenas (Lloyd 1992), ou em períodos de ausência ou baixa frequência de polinizadores, o que dificultaria a polinização cruzada (Santos et al 2010). Entretanto, há custos como o desconto de gametas, ou seja, pólen que poderia ser utilizado na fecundação cruzada é gasto com a autofecundação "roubando" óvulos que poderiam ser fecundados com pólen de outros indivíduos, e depressão endogâmica, caso haja genes deletérios na população (Lloyd 1992, Barringer 2007, Santos et al 2010.…”

“…The latter may be related to the amount of homozygotes in the population, which may lead to inbreeding depression through the expression of deleterious genes in homozygousness (Johnston and Schoen, 1996;Santos et al, 2010). Recessive genes may remain hidden in heterozygous populations; when the number of homozygotes increases in inbred populations, a greater number of recessive genes may occur, and an increase in deleterious characteristics begins to appear, thus causing vigor loss (Allard, 1971;Santos et al, 2010).…”

There are works suggesting that self-pollination causes a low seed formation rate compared to cross-pollination; a high number of abortions, deformities and mutations occurs in plantlets and seedlings from several species (Kageyama and Piña-Rodrigues, 1993;Santos Júnior et al, 2013).…”
