摘要:

本文利用光学显微镜及扫描电镜观察了桦木科6属、38种植物的叶表皮。发现该科植物成熟叶片的气孔器有四种类型:即无规型、轮列型、不典型辐射型和短平列型,叶表皮性状及性状状态对于桦木科植物属的确定和族的划分具有重要的分类学价值。
在确定叶表皮性状的演化趋势时,综合了其他方面的研究成果(如Abbe,1935,1974;Brunner和Fairbrothers,1979;Hall,1952;Kikuzava,1982;Kuprianova,1963),并且发现叶表皮形态对于揭示桦木科植物的属间演化有较大的参考价值。作者认为:叶表皮特征支持将桦木科分成两个族;气孔器无规则型、气孔器外拱盖单层、气孔器在保卫细胞极区无”T”型加厚以及下表皮细胞垂周壁平直为原始的叶表面性状;下表皮细胞垂周壁具波纹和气孔器为不典型辐射型等特征仅发现于榛属、虎榛子属,铁木属和鹅耳枥属,从而将榛族与桦木族分开;桦木族包括桦木属和桤木属,由于具有较多的原始性状而比榛族原始,在榛族中,鹅耳枥属最为特化(见图1)。

Abstract:

Light and scanning electron microscopes were used to examine foliar epidermal
features such as the shape of epidermal cells, the type of stomatal apparatus and outer
stomatal rim in 38 species of 6 genera of the Betulaceae. Four types of stomatal apparatus on
mature leaves are recognized in this survey: anomocytic, cyclocytic, non-typical actinocytic
and brachyparacytic. The foliar epidermal characters and character states are taxonomically
useful for the identification of genera and the division of tribes.
     The generalized evolutionary scheme for foliar epidermal features is fairly closely corre-
lated with the generic relationships proposed in other studies (Abbe, 1935, 1974; Brunner &
Fairbrothers, 1979; Hall, 1952; Kikuzava, 1982; Kuprianova, 1963)and it is clear that foliar
epidermal morphology can be an important taxonomic character added to others for deter-
mining evolutionary relationships. The explanations of generic relationships are based on
our hypothesis that anomocytic stomatal apparatus, uni-layered outer stomatal rim, having
not T-pieces at the polar region of guard cells and straight anticlinal wall of lower epidermal
cell are from the ancestor (Fig. 1). Sinuolate or sinuate anticlinal wall of lower epidermal
cells and non-typical actinocytic stomatal apparatus, present in Corylus, Ostryopsis, Ostrya
and  Carpinus of the Betulaceae, correlates with the separation of Coryleae from
Betuleae. Betuleae including Alnus and Betula is considered primitive with more primitive
characters. Of Coryleae, Carpinus might be the most advanced, with brachyparacytic

stomatal apparatus and double-layered outer stomatal rim.
