Pełny tekst źródłaAllanblackia floribunda or tallow tree is a tropical forest-tree species that is valued for its seeds, which are rich in hard fat consisting mostly of stearic and oleic acids, reported to lower plasma cholesterol levels, thus reducing the risks of heart attack. Owing to this fat profile, Allanblackia oil is used for margarine production and in soap and ointments manufacture, and seeds extracted from Allanblackia fruits by local communities are traded. We determined whether the species could be genetically improved for fruit/seed production by sampling 17 to 40 fruits from each of 70 trees that were distributed among four sites in wild stands. Fat was extracted from the seeds, and stearic and oleic acid content of the fat was estimated using methods developed in this study. Phenotypic variation in fruit/seed traits was assessed within- and among-trees, and among sites. Repeatabilities were estimated for measured characters, and relationships between these characters investigated. Twenty “plus trees” were selected for breeding, and implications for improvement discussed. Then we isolated and characterized ten microsatellite primer pairs for A. floribunda. Seven of these microsatellite loci were polymorph for both Allanblackia gabonensis and Allanblackia stanerana species as well. Using eight informative microsatellite loci, we have characterized the genetic structure of A. floribunda natural populations from Cameroon, and inferred the recent history of rainforests from Central Africa. No significant difference was identified in genetic parameters between wild stands and the breeding population, indicating that breeding A. floribunda from 20 trees would not reduce nuclear genetic diversity. However, a slight increase in inbreeding was observed in the breeding population, and recommendations for genetic diversity conservation during tree improvement in the species are made.

Pełny tekst źródłaENGLISH ABSTRACT: With growing concerns about current environmental issues, such as climate change, that affect ecosystems around the world, understanding ecosystem function is becoming increasingly important. In this study, I investigate the plant – seed disperser mutualism between an endemic scatter-hoarding mouse Acomys subspinosus and its Proteaceae plant counterpart Leucadendron sessile in the biodiversity hotspot of the Cape Floristic Region, South Africa. The main objective of this thesis is to investigate the seed selection and caching behaviour of A. subspinosus. First, I determined the seed selection strategy for dispersal and burial by A. subspinosus. Acomys subspinosus may exert stabilizing selection pressure onto L. sessile seeds by dispersing and burying medium seeds with medium hull-thicknesses. Small seeds were eaten in situ and large seeds left at depots. I concluded that the buried L. sessile seeds may have a competitive advantage when it comes to seedling establishment in a post-fire environment, since seeds dispersed by rodents in the fynbos, such as L. sessile, are much larger in size and therefore have more stored nutrients and rapid growth capabilities than seeds dispersed by other vectors. Secondly, I documented rodent dispersal behaviour over a full years’ time. Acomys subspinosus dispersal behaviour changed significantly over the seasons, which I attributed to a change in food availability as the year progressed. Acomys subspinosus buried seeds in autumn after mass seed drop but began to recover caches and consume seeds during winter and spring. The rodent switched to an insectivorous diet in spring. I propose that the A. subspinosus – L. sessile relationship is mutualistic during the year, but the relationship does shift in the favour of the rodent during winter and spring. Lastly, I address the scatter-hoarding behaviour of A. subspinosus and cache recovery ability of its assumed closest food competitor Rhabdomys pumilio. I found that cache size has a profound influence on pilferage rates of L. sessile seeds. Acomys subspinosus scatter-hoarded the majority of seeds singly in the field and R. pumilio had difficulties finding those single-cached seeds in dry substrate under controlled experimental conditions, serving as evidence that scatter-hoarding is an effective method of pilferage mitigation by A. subspinosus during the dry summer months. Relatively little was known about this plant – disperser mutualism and how it functions before this thesis were conducted. I have provided insights into the influence of rodent disperser behaviour on seed morphology development, seed fate and seed persistence in the field and suspect that the plant –disperser relationship may have a larger influence on ecosystem dynamics than previously anticipated. Further research on this system is of importance, especially with today’s emerging environmental instability and human interference that threaten the robustness of highly interconnected ecosystems like the fynbos.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Met die huidige omgewingskwessies, soos die klimaatsverandering, wat ekosisteme wêreldwyd affekteer, word die begrip van ekosisteemfunksionering toenemend belangrik. In hierdie studie ondersoek ek die dier – saadverspreidingsmutualisme tussen die endemiese verstrooiings-storing muis Acomys subspinosus en sy Proteaceae plant eweknie Leucadendron sessile in die biodiversiteit 'hotspot’ van die Kaapse Floristiese Ryk, Suid-Afrika. Die hoof doelwit van die tesis is om die saadseleksie en storingsgedrag van A. subspinosus te ondersoek. Eerstens het ek die saadseleksie strategie vir die verspreiding en begrawing deur A. subspinosus bepaal. Acomys subspinosus het direksionele druk uitgeoefen op L. sessile sade deur mediumgrootte sade met medium saadhuiddiktes te versprei en te begrawe. Klein sade was in situ geëet en groot sade was gelaat by afgesette plekke. Ek het die gevolgtrekking gemaak dat die L. sessile sade wat begrawe is ‘n kompeterende voordeel mag hê wanneer dit kom by die vestiging van saailinge in ‘n afgebrande omgewing, aangesien sade wat in die fynbos deur knaagdiere versprei word, soos L. sessile, baie groter is en dus meer gestoorde voedingstowwe en spoedige groeivermoëns het, as sade wat deur ander vektore versprei word. Tweedens het ek die knaagdier verspreidingsgedrag oor die tydperk van ‘n jaar gedokumenteer. Acomys subspinosus se verspreidingsgedrag het beduidend verander deur die verloop van die jaar, wat ek toegeskryf het aan die verandering in voedselbesbikbaarheid soos wat die jaar gevorder het. Acomys subspinosus het sade begrawe in die herfs na grootskaalse vrylating en val van die sade, maar het gestoorde sade begin terug kry en sade begin eet gedurende die winter en lente. Die knaagdier het na ‘n insekvretende dieët omgeskakel in die lente. Ek stel voor dat die A. Supspinosus – L. sessile verhouding nie die hele jaar mutualisties is nie, maar eerder antagonisties, in die knaagdier se guns, gedurende die winter en lente. In die laaste hoofstuk spreek ek die verstrooiings-storingsgedrag van A. subspinosus en storingsverkrygingvermoeë van sy naaste voedselmededinger en deponeringsdief Rhabdomys pumilio aan. Ek het gevind dat die storingsgrootte ‘n beduidende invloed het op die koers van diefstal van L. sessile sade. Acomys subspinosus het die meerderheid van die sade gestoor in die veld en R. pumilio het die enkel-gestoorde sade in droeë substraat onder gekontroleerde eksperimentele kondisies moeiliker gevind. Dit is ondersteunende bewyse dat verstrooings-storingsgedrag ‘n effektiewe metode is om diefstal te verminder in die droë somer in die fynbos. Relatief min was bekend oor hierdie dier – saad verspreidingsmutualisme en hoe dit funksioneer voordat die studie uitgevoer was. Ek het insig verskaf oor die invloed van knaagdier verspreidingsgedrag op saadmorfologie ontwikkeling, die lot van sade en die tydperk wat dit begrawe is in die veld. Ek vermoed dat die mutualisme ‘n hoeksteenproses is in die fynbos en die invloed daarvan op ekosisteemdinamieka mag dalk groter wees as wat voorheen verwag was. Verdere navorsing oor hierdie sisteem is belangrik, veral met vandag se opkomende omgewingsonstabiliteit en menslike inmenging wat die robuustheid van hoogs verbonde-netwerk ekosisteme soos die fynbos bedreig.

Pełny tekst źródłaThe processes of dispersal, offspring survival and phenological periods of plant species result both from their evolutionary history and adaptations to the environment. To analyze the evolutionary pattern of these processes, the hypothesis that the similarity among related species in relation to their reproductive traits (fruits, seeds and the phenology of flowering and fruiting) is higher than expected by chance (high phylogenetic signal) was tested through partial Mantel tests, controlling for the effect of species life form. The results revealed that most seed traits, two diaspores traits (color display and pulp percentage) and the time of diaspore development, show moderate phylogenetic signal. This suggests that the conservation of seed traits for offspring survival and the lability of diaspore traits seeking more effective dispersions, significantly affect the species fitness, and it also indicates the influence of the time of diaspore development on the fruiting peaks.

Pełny tekst źródłaClassic studies on taxonomic diversity, though essential, do not consider the functional differences between species in a community. Studies using functional traits and functional diversity are filling this gap. Understanding the structure and dynamics of mutualistic interactions is also essential for biodiversity studies and allows the investigation of ecological and evolutionary mechanisms. However, most networks published are small in the number of species and interactions, and they are likely to be under-sampled. In addition, studies have demonstrated that many network metrics are sensitive to both sampling effort and network size. The aims of this thesis were: 1) to investigate bird taxonomic diversity (TD), functional diversity (FD), and patterns of trait convergence (TCAP: Trait Convergence Assembly Patterns) across forest-grassland transitions; 2) to analyse the structure of seed-dispersal networks between plants and birds using the metrics of nestedness, modularity, connectance and degree distribution; 3) to develop a statistical framework to assess sampling sufficiency for some of the most widely used metrics in network ecology, based on methods of bootstrap resampling. Bird species composition indicated species turnover between forest, forest edge and grassland. Regarding TD, only forest and edges differed. FD was significantly different between grassland and forest, and between grassland and edges. TD and FD responded differently to environmental change from forest to grassland, since they may capture different processes of community assembly along such transitions. Trait-convergence assembly patterns indicated niche mechanisms underlying assembly of bird communities, linked to changes in habitat structure across forest-edge-grassland transitions acting as ecological filters. Seed dispersal mutualistic networks apparently show a common assembly process regardless differences in sampling methodology or continents where the 19 networks were sampled. Using bootstrap resampling we found that sampling sufficiency can be reached at different sample sizes (number of interaction events) for the same dataset, depending on the metric of interest.

Pełny tekst źródłaThe distribution of plant species and functional traits in alpine and arctic environments are determined by abiotic conditions, but also by biotic interactions. In this thesis, I investigate interactions among plants and herbivory effects on plant community composition and plant functional traits in three different regions: Swedish Lapland, Beringia (USA/Russia) and Finnmark (Norway). Reindeer grazing was found to be extensive in southern Lapland and had limited effects on plant community composition and seedling germination. However, reindeer presence was found to influence plant functional traits, particularly in the subalpine birch forest. Tall herbs were lower and had lower SLA when reindeer were present, while small herbs showed an opposite pattern. The contrasting effects on the two herb groups are probably explained by a competitive release for small herbs when the tall herbs are suppressed by reindeer. Rodents had the largest relative impact on plant community composition in southern Lapland and this is consistent with the study from Finnmark, where rodents heavily affected dwarf shrubs on predator-free islands. With no predators present, vole densities increased profoundly and almost depleted some dwarf shrub species. These results support the idea that small mammals in arctic and alpine tundra are controlled by predators (i.e. top-down). However, a decrease in the nutritional quality in a sedge after defoliation gives support for the idea that small mammals are regulated by plant quality (i.e. bottom-up). In Beringia, small and large herbivores differed in the relation to plant community composition, since large herbivores were related to species richness and small herbivores were related to plant abundance. Plant functional traits were related only to large herbivores and standing crop of vascular plants.

The object of the study was selected annual wild species of the genus Linum: Linum angustifolium, Linum bienne, Linum crepitans, Linum hispanicum. The work has relevance in our time in the practice of wild species of flax in genetic and breeding work and to create new valuable source material by interspecific hybridization. The aim was to study the variability of economically valuable signs four-year wild species of flax for further practical use of these species. To solve this problem used the following research methods: field, phenological observations, biometric measurements, laboratory techniques and statistical analysis method. The practical value of species of the genus Linum is due to the presence of their representatives of beneficial properties; аmong flax there are textile, oil, honey, medicinal, fodder, eyeliner, decorative and other plants. Flax cultivation can be grown in all soil-climatic zones of Ukraine due to biological properties and environmental adaptation. The main regions of cultural flax cultivation are the southern regions (Zaporozhye, Dnipropetrovsk, Mykolaiv, Kherson), although in recent years the area under this culture has increased in the regions of the central and northern regions. The rapid development of breeding culture creates a wide range of species of wild flax research. In particular, scientists are interested in wild flax features that can be used in further breeding work to create a more productive sorts improved. The study involved flax culture long ago, but the involvement of wild species of the source material is a trend of recent research. Therefore, the study features signs in wild flax that can be used to improve the culture of flax is a hot topic. Further research of wild species of flax opens new opportunities for expanding breeding work in the direction of creating a source material with increased resistance to biotic and abiotic environmental factors. The novelty lies in the collection, preservation and study of the genetic diversity of the genus Linum. The study of wild species for further involvement in breeding programs is a very promising area of work. Significance of work.

Pełny tekst źródłaGermination is a key process in plant reproduction, a critical and irreversible phase conditioning the regeneration and distribution of plants. Understanding how temperature and water act on germination, is major step prior to identify risks plants may undergo under warming climate. Thermal time and hydrotime modelling of germination are useful tools to predict germination in the field as a function of climatic conditions above threshold value of temperature and water potential (respectively base temperature, Tb, and base water potential, Ψb) in a seed’s environment. This PhD thesis aimed at studying germination ecophysiology at two contrasted taxonomic scales: (i) for all seed plants and (ii) at the restricted level of the genus Silene in the Provence Alpes Côte d’Azur region. In both cases the objective was to evaluate evolutionary implications of the germination traits, Tb and Ψb and their link with plant morphological and phenological constraints. This work is structured in three parts : (I) Temperature but not moisture response of germination shows phylogenetic contraints while both interact with seed mass and life span ; (II) Germination ecophysiology in the Silene genus : thermal time and hydrotime models ; (III) Comparative ecology of Silene germination : relation with plant traits and climate.The mains results of this work show strong evidences of phylogenetic signal in base temperature and greater lability for base water potential at both taxonomic scales. The links with plant traits such as seed mass depend on biogeographical origins and life span

O presente estudo foi realizado com os objetivos principais de: verificar as associações existentes entre caracteres agronômicos e caracteres relacionados à qualidade fisiológica de sementes de soja; determinar alterações fisiológicas e no teor de óleo em sementes de soja, ao longo do período de armazenamento, além de selecionar progênies superiores de soja por meio de análises multivariadas. Para isto, as relações existentes entre os caracteres agronômicos de plantas e fisiológicos de sementes foram verificadas por meio da análise de correlações canônicas em sete populações e duas cultivares comerciais, em três gerações: plantas F3 e sementes F4; plantas F4 e sementes F5; e sementes e plantas na geração F4. Os caracteres agronômicos de plantas (grupo I) avaliados foram: número de dias para maturidade, altura da planta na maturidade, altura de inserção da primeira vagem, número de vagens, produção de grãos e teor de óleo. A qualidade fisiológica das sementes (grupo II), foi avaliada por meio do teste de germinação, envelhecimento acelerado, emergência e índice de velocidade de emergência. As mesmas populações e cultivares também foram avaliadas antes do armazenamento e após seis meses, armazenadas em ambiente com temperatura e umidade controladas, através de testes de germinação, vigor, teor de água e teor de óleo, em esquema fatorial 2 x 9. Para as análises multivariadas, 20 populações segregantes de geração F4, foram avaliadas para os seguintes caracteres agronômicos: número de dias para florescimento, número de dias para maturidade, altura da planta na maturidade, altura da inserção da primeira vagem, número de ramos, número de vagens, número de nós, produção de grãos e teor de óleo. Utilizou-se a técnica de componentes principais e análise de agrupamento pelo método não hierárquico de k-médias, além dos índices de seleção Mulamba e Mock e Smith e Hazel. Observou-se que os caracteres agronômicos de plantas e fisiológicos de sementes não são independentes. As associações intergrupos para a geração de plantas F3 e sementes F4 foram estabelecidas por plantas com maior número de vagens, mais produtivas e com alto teor de óleo, as quais estão associadas com sementes de alta germinação e velocidade de emergência. Na geração de plantas F4 e sementes F5, há associação entre ciclo de maturidade reduzido, sementes de alta porcentagem de emergência e alta porcentagem de plântulas normais após o envelhecimento acelerado. Pelo segundo par canônico plantas mais produtivas e de porte alto estão associadas com maior vigor de sementes de soja. Para a geração de sementes e plantas F4 as associações estabelecidas foram sementes de alto vigor estão associadas a plantas mais produtivas, com alto teor de óleo e ciclo de maturidade reduzido. E pelo segundo par canônico há associação entre sementes de alta qualidade fisiológica e plantas de porte alto. O armazenamento das sementes por seis meses em ambiente controlado afetou a qualidade fisiológica e o teor de óleo das sementes, sendo que os genótipos de soja apresentam diferentes níveis de tolerância ao armazenamento e teores de óleo. A análise de componentes principais resultou em 3 componentes principais (CP1, CP2 e CP3), os quais explicam 65,82% da variância total contida nas nove variáveis. Os caracteres de maior contribuição na discriminação dos genótipos em CP1 foram produção de grãos, número de ramos, número de vagens, número de nós e número de dias para maturidade. As progênies selecionadas 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 65, 75, 80, 89 e 95 apresentam bom potencial produtivo. As análises de k-médias formaram nove grupos, o grupo superior foi formado pelas progênies 36, 38, 39, 40, 65, 75, 79 e 80. Dentre as 18 progênies selecionadas pelos índices de seleção, 10 foram concordantes com os componentes principais. As análises multivariadas permitiram a seleção de progênies superiores para os caracteres relacionados à produção de grãos e teor de óleo.
This study aimed to examine the associations between agronomic traits and traits related to physiological seed quality in soybean seeds, determine physiological and oil content alterations during the storage and select superior progenies using multivariate analysis. For this, the relationships between agronomic traits and physiological of seed traits were evaluated using canonical correlation analysis in seven segregating populations and two commercial cultivars conducted in three generations: plants F3 and seeds F4, plants F4 and seeds F5 and seeds and plants in generation F4. The agronomic traits (group I) evaluated were: number of days to maturity, plant height at maturity, first pod height, number of pod per plant, grain yield and oil content. The seed physiological quality (group II) was evaluated by percentage of germination, percentage of emergence, emergence speed index and accelerated aging. The same populations and cultivars were also evaluated before the storage and after six months stored in cold room by germination test, vigor, seed moisture and oil content, arranged in a 2 x 9 factorial design. For the multivariate analysis, 20 segregating populations in generation F4 were evaluated using the following agronomic traits: number of days to flowering, number of days to maturity, plant height at maturity, first pod height, number of branches per plant, number of pod per plant, number of nodes per plant, grain yield and oil content. It was used the principal components technique and the non-hierarchical clustering method of k-means and also the rank summation index Mulamba and Mock and classical selection index Smith and Hazel. The analysis of canonical correlation showed that the groups are not independent. Inter-group associations, in the generation of plants F3 and seeds F4, were establish by plants with more pods, higher grain yield and oil content are associated with seeds with high germination and emergence speed index. For the generation plants F4 and seeds F5, there are associations between short-season plants, seeds with high emergence and percentage of germination under conditions of accelerated aging. In the second canonical pair, higher-yielding and taller plants are associated with high vigor soybean seeds. For the generation seeds and plants F4 the associations established were, seeds with high vigor are associated with short-season and higher-yielding plants and high oil content. And in the second canonical pair there is association between seeds with high physiological quality and tall plants. The storage for six months in cold room affected the physiological quality and the oil content of the seeds and the soybean genotypes shown different levels of tolerance of storage and different oil content. The principal components analysis resulted on 3 principal components (PC1, PC2 and PC3), which explained 65,82% of the total variance in nine variables. The traits with higher contribution to discriminate the progenies in PC1 were grain yield, number of branches, number of pods, number of nodes and number of days to maturity. The selected progenies 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 65, 75, 80, 89 and 95 shown good productive potencial. The clustering analysis, k-means allowed the formation of nine groups, the superior group contains the progenies 36, 38, 39, 40, 65, 75, 79 and 80. Among the 18 progenies selected by the selection indexes, 10 were consistent with principal components analysis. The multivariate analysis allowed selecting superior progenies for the evaluated characters, especially for the components related to grain production and oil content.

Pełny tekst źródłaResumo: No Cerrado, um dos fatores abióticos que influenciam na fenologia das plantas é o fogo, o qual é um distúrbio natural que interfere em diversos ecossistemas do mundo. O fogo altera as condições do habitat podendo afetar a floração, frutificação, atributos das sementes e germinação. Portanto, esse projeto visou compreender o efeito do fogo na fenologia reprodutiva e nos atributos de semente e germinação da comunidade do Cerrado. Para isso, foram realizadas a contagem do número de ramos (vegetativos e reprodutivos) por espécie, realizados em 30 subparcelas de 1x1m em áreas com diferentes históricos de fogo (C=6 anos sem queima e FB=recentemente queimada). Também foram marcados indivíduos de diferentes espécies dominantes em ambas as áreas. A comunidade e os indivíduos tiveram sua floração acompanhados a cada 15 dias durante 3 meses após a queima e então aos 6, 9 e 12 meses. Os seguintes atributos das sementes e germinação foram medidos: forma e peso da semente, teor de água, germinabilidade, tempo médio de germinação e sincronia. Nossos resultados mostraram que o fogo aumentou a floração nas áreas queimadas. Já nos primeiros 30 dias até 3 meses após a queima houve até 2 vezes mais espécies que floresceram nas áreas FB comparados a C. Também houve um aumento significativo na proporção de ramos reprodutivos aos 3 meses pós-fogo na comunidade, mostrando que a profusão reprodutiva ocorre nos primeiros meses após queima.

Abstract: In Cerrado one of the abiotic factors that influences plant phenology is fire, which is a natural disturbance that interferes with several ecosystems in the world. Fire changes the conditions of the habitat and can affect flowering, fruiting and seeds and germination traits. Therefore, this project aimed to understand the effect of fire on reproductive phenology and on seed and germination traits of Cerrado community. For this purpose, the counting of the number of branches (vegetative and reproductive) by species was carried out in 30 subplots of 1x1m in areas with different fire histories (C = 6 years without burning and FB = recently burned). We also marked individuals of different dominant species in both areas. The community and individuals had their flowering counted every 15 days for 3 months after burning and then at 6, 9 and 12 months. The following seed and germination traits were measured: seed shape and mass/weight, water content, germinability, mean germination time and synchrony. Our results showed that fire increased flowering in burned areas. Already after 30 days up to 3 months after the burning there were up to 2-fold more species flowering in the FB areas compared to C. There was also a significant increase in the proportion of reproductive shoots at 3 months post-fire in the community, showing that the reproductive profusion occurs in the first few months after burning. Among the species of the community 66.39% can be considered stimulated by fire. Seed an... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)

Pełny tekst źródłaEpizoochory is one mode of plant dispersal, where seeds are conveyed externally on animals. It mostly concerns forbs and graminoids, shrubs and trees relying more on endozoochory or abiotic vectors. Epizoochory is considered a strong biotic filter that shapes local plant assemblages from the regional pool of species. Abundant populations of large-bodied ungulates and their home range movements provide frequent ‘mobile links’ among habitat patches. For my thesis, I was interested in assessing the role of wild ungulates, especially red deer, in epizoochorous seed dispersal. I addressed 1) the role of ungulates in structuring local plant communities with respect to dispersal-related plant traits, 2) the effect of landscape composition on movement decisions made by individual red deer on subsequent seed dispersal kernels, and 3) the complementarity of ungulate-mediated dispersal modes and their overall influence on local plant communities. I used a combination of empirical field data and ecological modeling to address these questions. I found that zoochory presents a weak signal in structuring plant communities compared to other abiotic factors, but that dispersal-enabling traits were good predictors. I demonstrated the importance of accounting for home ranging behavior in range-resident ungulates in the seed dispersal kernel, which prevents from over-estimating dispersal distances. Moreover, I underlined how considering the total seed load dispersed by individual red deer is crucial and reveals the complementarity of dispersal modes in the total dispersal kernel. Finally, I highlighted the underrated role of ungulates in spreading invasives as a real threat to biodiversity

Pełny tekst źródłaIn a worldwide context of wetland destruction, a consequence of anthropic activities, ecological restoration of such habitats and their functions has become a societal and ecological issue. The objective of this project is to recreate agriculture-oriented wet grasslands with pedological and floristical properties as similar as possible to typical grasslands destroyed by alluvial materials extraction. The study presented here focuses on the impact of pedological materials, used in the re-creation of four soils, on soil functions and associated floristic processions. The main hypothesis is that re-creation of a soil morphologically similar to the previously destroyed one should drive ecological restoration. The underlying hypothesis is that different local pedological materials inherit their previous physicochemical and biological properties. This should conserve associated pedological functions and favor the return of a floristic procession compatible with agricultural exploitation. The first part is dedicated to the study of carbon storage and denitrification, two wetlands soils functions. These two functions are retained within the four re-created soils two and a half year after gravel-pit filling. Main results highlight functional efficiency levels of tested pedological material inherited from their respective initial topsoil physico-chemical properties. The second part is devoted to the study of mechanisms structuring plant communities. The high contribution of local pedological materials seed bank during the colonization process and its impact on aforementioned mechanisms was highlighted from our monitoring. Despite demonstration of the start of a dynamic trajectory in the four created soils similarity between obtained and target communities never exceeds 50%. Aerial biomass production associated to these communities is comparable to the production in reference wet grasslands in terms of quantity, but not quality. Implementation of management (sowing and mowing) shows biomass production of comparable quality to reference grassland from the first year onwards. The last part focuses on the effect of three soil waterlogging levels on the denitrification process and the response traits of Holcus lanatus, a meadow species. Pedological materials placement in identical waterlogging conditions highlights the importance of denitrifying bacteria communities inheritance on the denitrification process. These experimental conditions also enabled us to highlight the considered species morphological and functional response traits. To conclude and following our monitoring the best compromise for concurrent restoration of soil and vegetation while considering cost-effectiveness needs to account for topsoils origin and history (i.e. management)

Resumo: O presente estudo foi realizado com os objetivos principais de: verificar as associações existentes entre caracteres agronômicos e caracteres relacionados à qualidade fisiológica de sementes de soja; determinar alterações fisiológicas e no teor de óleo em sementes de soja, ao longo do período de armazenamento, além de selecionar progênies superiores de soja por meio de análises multivariadas. Para isto, as relações existentes entre os caracteres agronômicos de plantas e fisiológicos de sementes foram verificadas por meio da análise de correlações canônicas em sete populações e duas cultivares comerciais, em três gerações: plantas F3 e sementes F4; plantas F4 e sementes F5; e sementes e plantas na geração F4. Os caracteres agronômicos de plantas (grupo I) avaliados foram: número de dias para maturidade, altura da planta na maturidade, altura de inserção da primeira vagem, número de vagens, produção de grãos e teor de óleo. A qualidade fisiológica das sementes (grupo II), foi avaliada por meio do teste de germinação, envelhecimento acelerado, emergência e índice de velocidade de emergência. As mesmas populações e cultivares também foram avaliadas antes do armazenamento e após seis meses, armazenadas em ambiente com temperatura e umidade controladas, através de testes de germinação, vigor, teor de água e teor de óleo, em esquema fatorial 2 x 9. Para as análises multivariadas, 20 populações segregantes de geração F4, foram avaliadas para os seguintes caracteres agronômicos: númer... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)
Abstract: This study aimed to examine the associations between agronomic traits and traits related to physiological seed quality in soybean seeds, determine physiological and oil content alterations during the storage and select superior progenies using multivariate analysis. For this, the relationships between agronomic traits and physiological of seed traits were evaluated using canonical correlation analysis in seven segregating populations and two commercial cultivars conducted in three generations: plants F3 and seeds F4, plants F4 and seeds F5 and seeds and plants in generation F4. The agronomic traits (group I) evaluated were: number of days to maturity, plant height at maturity, first pod height, number of pod per plant, grain yield and oil content.

The colonization dynamics and life histories of pioneer species are vital components in understanding the early succession of nascent hydrothermal vents. The reproductive ecology of pioneer species at deep-sea hydrothermal vents may provide insight into their dispersal, population connectivity, and ability to colonize after disturbance. An opportunity to study the reproductive traits of two pioneer gastropod species, Ctenopelta porfera and Lepetodrilus tevnianus, presented itself in 2006 after an eruption on the East Pacific Rise (EPR) eliminated vent communities near 9°50'N. Standard histological techniques were used to determine whether reproductive characteristics, such as timing of gamete release, fecundity, or time to maturation, differed from other vent gastropods in ways that might explain arrival of these two species as early colonizers. Both species exhibited two-component oocyte size frequency distributions that indicated they were quasi-continuous reproducers with high fecundity. In C. porifera, the oocyte size distributions differed slightly between two collection dates, suggesting that environmental cues may introduce some variability in gamete release. In samples collected within one year of the estimated eruption date, individuals in populations of both C. porfera and L. tevnianus were reproductively mature. The smallest reproducing C. porifera were 4.2 mm (males) and 5.4 mm (females) in shell length, whereas reproductive L. tevnianus were smaller (2.3 and 2.4 mm in males and females respectively). Most Cporifera in the population were large (> 6.0 mm) compared to their settlement size and reproductively mature. In contrast, most L tevnianus were small (< 1.0 mm) and immature. Reproductive traits of the two species are consistent with opportunistic colonization, but are also similar to those of other Lepetodrilus species and peltospirids at vents, and do not explain why these particular two species were the dominant pioneers. It is likely that their larvae were in high supply immediately after the eruption due to oceanographic transport processes from remote source populations.
