    Notes: [Auszug] The chromosomal speciation model invokes chromosomal rearrangements as the primary cause of reproductive isolation. In a heterozygous carrier, chromosomes bearing reciprocal translocations mis-segregate at meiosis, resulting in reduced fertility or complete sterility. Thus, chromosomal ...

    Notes: The present study examines the manner in which several whole-tree water transport properties scale with species-specific variation in sapwood water storage capacity. The hypothesis that constraints on relationships between sapwood capacitance and other water relations characteristics lead to predictable scaling relationships between intrinsic capacitance and whole-tree behaviour was investigated. Samples of sapwood from four tropical forest canopy tree species selected to represent a range of wood density, tree size and architecture, and taxonomic diversity were used to generate moisture release curves in thermocouple psychrometer chambers, from which species-specific values of sapwood capacitance were calculated. Sapwood capacitance was then used to scale several whole-tree water transport properties determined from measurements of upper branch and basal sap flow, branch water potential, and axial and radial movement of deuterated water (D2O) injected into the base of the trunk as a tracer. Sapwood capacitance ranged from 83 to 416 kg m−3 MPa−1 among the four species studied and was strongly correlated with minimum branch water potential, soil-to-branch hydraulic conductance, daily utilization of stored water, and axial and radial movement of D2O. The species-independent scaling of several whole-tree water transport properties with sapwood capacitance indicated that substantial convergence in plant function at multiple levels of biological organization was revealed by a simple variable related to a biophysical property of water transport tissue.

    Notes: The phylogenetic interrelationship of species of the genus Zygosaccharomyces was examined by 18S rRNA gene sequencing. Comparative analysis of the sequence data revealed the genus to consist of a number of distinct subdivisions. The most prevalent species associated with food spoilage, Z. bailii, Z. bisporus and Z. rouxii, along with Z. mellis were found to form one subdivision. Zygosaccharomyces cidri and Z. fermentati formed a distinct species pair, as did Z. microellipsoides and Z. mrakii. Zygosaccharomyces florentinus formed a separate line displaying no specific relationship with any of the other Zygosaccharomyces species examined. Comparison with nine published ascosporogenous yeast 18S rRNA gene sequences showed that Z. microellipsoides and Z. mrakii were genealogically very close to Torulaspora delbrueckii (both displaying 99·8% 18S rRNA sequence similarity), raising the possibility that these two Zygosaccharomyces species should be moved to the genus Torulaspora.The topologies of trees derived from complete 18S rRNA gene sequences and from individual domains within the gene were compared and the implications of using partial sequence data for inferring phylogenetic relationships discussed.
