Pendent sessile flowers of Chamaelirium japonicum (Willd.) N. Tanaka appear zygomorpic, but they do not possess a bilateral symmetry. The flowers are subtended by a vestigial bract and lack a bracteole. The perianth consists of two small tepals on the abaxial side of the flower and four large tepals, none of which is median. Because the short tepals belong to different whorls, there is no symmetry plane. Despite the absence of a bracteole, the shape of the floral meristem before perianth inception resembles that of bracteolate monocot flowers. At early stages, all six tepals are equal in shape and size, and the flower is actinomorphic. The difference between the dorsal and ventral sides and the pendent nature of the flower become expressed during the gynoecium development. The absence of median organs allows to avoid collision of floral organs with the flower-subtending bract during flower curvature. Species of Chamaelirium reveal a set of different flower groundplans, which makes the genus a perfect model to investigate evolutionary changes in flower symmetry accompanied by differential tepal reduction.

A study of diatoms from the Tolmachev Reservoir (Kamchatka) was carried out using electron microscopy. As a result, 45 species and varieties of Bacillariophyta from 28 genera were identified, and 4 algae were identified only to the genus level. 12 species from 11 genera, new for the flora of Kamchatka diatoms, were found. Most of the new taxa for Kamchatka flora are rare species, and our study expanded their range.

Brachypodium sylvaticum has been selected as a model for perennial grasses, and considerable genomic resources have been generated and a reference genome and several resequenced pangenome accessions are available for this species. Despite these genomic advances, the evolution and systematics of diploid B. sylvaticum s. l. is almost unknown. The B. sylvaticum complex is formed by up to seven taxonomically close micro-taxa which differentiate from typical B. sylvaticum s. s. based on a few morphological features. Moreover, some of them show some largely disjunct geographic distributions on both sides of their native Palearctic region. In this study, we used a phylogenomic approach including representative populations from the oriental and occidental distribution range of B. sylvaticum micro-taxa to elucidate their evolutionary relationships and assess the systematic value of the morphological features that separate them. A combined plastome and nuclear phylogenetic tree supports an early split and high divergence of the oriental lineage, showing the close relationship of the Himalayan B. sylvaticum var. breviglume lineages to the Pacific B. miserum / B. kurilense clade, and the contrasting large homogeneity and low divergence of the occidental European, N African and SW and C Asian lineage, with several B. sylvaticum s. s., B. spryginii, and B. glaucovirens samples showing identical or similar sequences. Divergence time estimate analysis suggests that the oriental lineage diverged from the common ancestor in the early Pleistocene (2.0 Ma), followed by subsequent colonization and isolations in the Himalayas (2.0 – 1.7 Ma) and the Far East (0.36 Ma) in more recent times, while the occidental lineage split in the Mid-Late Pleistocene (0.97 Ma), followed by rapid radiation and postglacial spread in the western Paleartic during the last thousand years.

The article provides a description of the mycorrhiza in the roots of a generative specimen of Epipactis papillosa Franch. et Sav. (Orchidaceae). The percentage of bark cells inhabited by fungi and the intensity of mycorrhizal infection were calculated in all roots formed in 2010, 2011 and 2012 along all their length. Fungi were distributed in the roots irregularly, being concentrated in one or more zones. The possible connection between mycorrhizal development and weather conditions in corresponding years are discussed. Whereas according to the literature data E. papillosa is considered to be weakly mycotrophic species, with an average intensity of mycorrhizal infection of only 15 %, we found much higher average intensity in the studied specimen, up to 54 %. The possibility of secondary colonization of older roots by fungi in studied specimen was not confirmed.

Chlamydomonas-like green microalgae are unicellular biflagellate organisms from the order Volvocales, which are widely distributed in terrestrial ecosystems. Recent studies have shown that they belong to different phylogenetic lineages. The exact establishment of the taxonomic affiliation of these representatives is based on integrative approach, including multigene phylogeny along with light and electron microscopy, which also allows us to get the most accurate information about their biogeography. In this study, we examined the terrestrial green Chlamydomonas-like microalga, isolated from soil of the South-Eastern Altai Mountains in Russia. Based on molecular data of the nuclear 18S and plastid rbcL gene, we refer this alga to Chloromonas actinochloris within a robust clade of the genus Chloromonas, the phylogroup Chloromonadinia. This species was described from North America (USA). It is the first discovery of C. actinochloris in the mountains of Southern Siberia, as well as the first record of the species in Russia confirmed by molecular phylogeny and microscopy methods. The description of C. actinochloris, information on its biology and geography was supplemented. It is generally accepted that the phylogenetic clade including C. actinochloris should be revised and reassigned to a new genus soon. Our study shows that vegetative cells of Chloromonadinia algae can have ornamented cell wall that was mainly known for resting cells (cysts/zygotes) in a number of chlamydomonads, more rarely for vegetative cells. The structures on the wall of vegetative cells of Chlamydomonaslike microalgae can serve as an additional diagnostic criterion.

The results of long-terms vegetation studies of the Kulan plateau, which is located in the Badhyz reserve in the southeastern Turkmenistan, are presented. The geographical position of the region and the diversity of landscapes promoted to the formation of the specific flora, represented by various groups of Mediterranean, Iranian, Turanian, as well as Middle and Central Asian species. Very specific ephemeroid plant communities with Poa bulbosa и Carex pachystylis dominated in lower layer were syntaxonomically studied for the first time. The upper layer includes the tall herbs, especially Ferula badrakema, an endemic species of Badhyz. Communities were classified as the suballiance Poo bulbosae– Ferulenion badrakemii suball. nov. of the alliance Vulpio persicae–Caricion pachystylidis Świerszcz et al. 2020 of the order Cymbopogono–Brachypodietalia ramosi Horvatič 1963 of the class Lygeo sparti–Stipetea tenacissimae Rivas-Mart. 1978 nom. conserv. propos.

A high genetic variability was revealed in the populations of the Rhododendron subsection Ledum species complex in Sakhalin. In total, 94 individuals from natural populations of the four sympatric species of Labrador tea (R. tomentosum, R. subarcticum, R. tolmachevii and R. hypoleucum) were analyzed to evaluate the genetic variation in the territory of the Sakhalin Island and in two mainland populations. The haplotype diversity of five chloroplast intergenic spacers (trnH–psbA, petB–petD, 3’trnV (UAC)–ndhC, K2R–K707, atpB–rbcL) was quite high. There were 16 haplotypes (h1–h16) identified; h1, h2 and h4 are the most common, the rest were rare and no species-specific ones were found. Analysis of Molecular Variance (AMOVA) indicate that about 37 % of the genetic diversity is due to among population differences (FST = 0.37, p < 0.001). Molecular phylogenetic analysis based on chloroplast DNA data did not reveal a clear species structure, but revealed a trend towards the isolation of two genetic groups: including a group of samples from the southern and the middle parts of Sakhalin Island.
