Abstract
The spore germination and gametophyte development of Ctenitis submarginalis from Punta Lara Natural Reserve, Buenos Aires province were studied as a contribution to the conservation of the species in this protected area. Spores collected from natural populations were sowing in Dyer medium and germinated in six day with a percentaje of 88 % fifteen days after sowing. The germination is Vittaria type and the gametophyte development is Aspidium type. The gametophyte of Ctenitis submarginalis is cordate, with a deep notch and well developed and symmetric wings. The gametangia appear 50 days after sowing. The sporophyte emerges 190 days after sowing and two different hairs were observed in the first lamina. The in-vitro spore germination is a successful method for obtaining numerous sporophytes of Ctenitis submarginalis. The sporophytes obtained were gradually acclimated, transplanted to its natural habitat in the reserve and will be monitored frequently to contribute to the conservation of the species.
期刊介绍:
Bol. Soc. Argent. Bot. publishes original scientific works from the whole spectrum of Plant Biology (structure, anatomy, development, physiology, cytology, genetics, evolution, ecology, paleobotany, palynology, ethnobotany, etc.) in the diverse vegetable organisms and related groups (mycology, ficology, lichenology, briology, etc.), both in basic and applied aspects.
Taxonomic works (of systematics, phylogeny, monographs, revisions, lectotypifications, nomenclatural acts, descriptions of taxa), phytogeographic and phytosociological works (survey and classification of vegetation at different spatial scales and without restriction of methodological approaches) are considered for publication. Contributions that address complete phytogeographic units or sub-units and those that fill gaps in knowledge of vegetation in little-known territories are especially welcome. Extensions of geographical areas are published only when it comes to new citations for a country. Checklists and lists of annotated plants are not published.
Articles submitted for publication must be original and must not have been submitted to another publisher or previously published (print or electronic format). Submissions of papers already published in another language will not be accepted (autoplagio for translation).
