FIGURE 1 in A preliminary study of the morphological variation of rhizomes in Zingiber Mill. and its role in taxonomy
FIGURE 1. Diagram showing the sympodial rhizomatous growth and rhizome of Zingiber. A. Isomodular growth seen in Z. sect. Dymczewiczia, based on Leong-Škorničková et al. (2015: Fig. 3), showing one sterile module (blue), two modules with apical inflorescences (yellow and pale brown), and an older rhizome unit where the aerial shoot has shed (dark brown on the right). B. Heteromodular growth seen in Z. sect. Zingiber, showing two solely vegetative modules (blue and pale brown) and one erect, solely flowering module (yellow). C. A rhizome with four mature rhizome units: two older ones (dark brown and pale brown) showing abscission scars (as), and two younger ones (yellow) showing base of the aerial shoots that possess transitional leaves (tl). Also shown are numerous buds (b) of different ages (more mature one in blue and younger ones in green). The nodes on rhizome units are identified by presence of scales (sl) or by scale scars (ss). Note: scales (sl) appear as two split lobes lateral to their subtending buds, as is often the case in reality. Drawn by Ding Han Cui.

FIGURE 4. Zingiber viridescens Chen et al., a heteromodular species of Z. sect. Cryptanthium. A. Plant habit, showing two very short flowering shoots and one long vegetative shoot. B. A rhizome fragment, with arrows showing the types and relationships of rhizome units (green for vegetative rhizome units, red for flowering rhizome units, white for buds of unknown fate; inset: the same rhizome fragment with flowering shoots and the base of vegetative shoot attached). C. Rhizome (side view) with arrows showing the types and relationships of rhizome units (green for vegetative rhizome units, red for flowering rhizome units, white for buds of unknown fate). D. An older rhizome (side view), showing a mixture of vegetative rhizome units, flowering rhizome units (which can be generally distinguished by their much smaller size, some being marked with red arrows) and numerous buds of unknown fate; E. Rhizome (top view of D), showing closely packed rhizome units aligned in an approximate coplanar fashion (but because of the congestion, several rhizome units are slightly displaced); Green bars on abscission scars of the rhizome units indicate the direction of leaf distichy of those units. These bars show that leaf distichy of all rhizome unit are approximately in a plane (approximately in a line from apical view). Compare with Fig. 12A. Scale bars = 1 cm for B–E. Photos: Lin Bai.

FIGURE 3. Zingiber officinale Roscoe, a in A preliminary study of the morphological variation of rhizomes in Zingiber Mill. and its role in taxonomy
FIGURE 3. Zingiber officinale Roscoe, a heteromodular species of Z. sect. Zingiber. A–C. A common cultivar in Guangzhou used as flavoring agents, called 'xiao huang jiang (小Ħƃ)': A. Plant, showing that the flowering shoots are much shorter than the vegetative shoots, and flowering rhizome unit (red arrow) is slightly smaller than the vegetative rhizome units (green arrows); white arrows indicates buds of unknown fate (also see transitional leaves at apex of buds a and b); also showing rhizome units and leaf distichy of aerial shoots all aligned in a vertical coplane. B. The orientation of rhizome units alters when the rhizome was laid horizontally when planted, rather than vertically as it occurs in nature (insertion: renewal bud (rb) bursting through its subtending scale, which is split into two lateral lobes (s)). C. A rhizome composed of rhizome units of different "generations" and buds of different ages and sizes (c represents a mature rhizome unit which has truncated apex while d represents a bud with obtuse apical meristem). D. A cultivar called 'bai rou jiang (白Ṁƃ)', which is commonly seen in Guangzhou markets and used as a flavoring agent. E. A cultivar called 'feng jiang (Ṃƃ)' that is used mainly for medical purposes in Yangshan, China. Mature rhizome units are indicated by yellow arrows and buds by white arrows. Note that the rhizome is in a vertical plane except that rhizome unit f is slightly displaced behind rhizome unit e because the rhizome is so compact. F. Elongated rhizome units of 'zai jiang (仔ƃ)'. Scale bars = 5 cm. Photos: Lin Bai.
FIGURE 2 in A preliminary study of the morphological variation of rhizomes in Zingiber Mill. and its role in taxonomy
FIGURE 2. Zingiber ellipticum (S.Q.Tong & Y.M.Xia) Q.G.Wu & T.L.Wu, an isomodular species from Z. sect. Pleuranthesis. A. Plant, showing three aerial shoots of about the same size, with two sterile shoots and one bearing leaves and an apical inflorescence that penetrates the long leaf sheaths surrounding it. B. Rhizome of the plant showing in A, showing that the rhizome units are of approximate equal size and each rhizome unit often only produces one daughter rhizome unit at its abaxial position. C. Rhizome of another indvidual, inset showing abcission scars (as) of two older rhizome units. Rhizome units are indicated by curved yellow arrows, also showing that the base of aerial shoots (around the abscission zone) are more or less swollen (blue arrow). Scale bars = 10 cm. Photos: Lin Bai.
FIGURE 6 in A preliminary study of the morphological variation of rhizomes in Zingiber Mill. and its role in taxonomy
FIGURE 6. Rhizomes of Zingiber fallax (Loes.) Bai et al, a heteromodular species of Z. sect. Cryptanthium. A–E. The rhizomes are composed mainly of vegetative rhizome units (indicated by green arrows running along individual units), while the flowering rhizome units are extremely reduced in size (only a few noticeable ones are indicated by red arrows and some of the buds are indicated by white arrows). Notice that in this species there is large variation in the length of the pseudo-neck. If only a rhizome fragment from close to the vegetative shoot in A is examined, the rhizome could be misinterpreted as only comprising squat rhizome units. F–G. A very short flowering rhizome unit with one small lateral bud (yellow arrow). Scale bars = 5 cm. Photos: Lin Bai.

(vegetative rhizome units broadly cylindrical to broadly obovoid, base and apex slightly narrowed, flowering rhizome units similar in shape and slightly smaller). B. Presumed hybrid between Z. densissimum S.Q.Tong & Y.M.Xia and Z. yunnanense S.Q.Tong & X.Z.Liu, showing vegetative rhizome units comprise a cylindrical pseudo-neck and an obovoid head, flowering rhizome units thinner, cylindrical or narrowly obovoid. C & D. Z. tuanjuum Z.Y.Zhu (two populations, vegetative rhizome units comprise a short- or long-cylindrical pseudoneck and a broadly obconical or broadly obovoid head, flowering rhizome unit thinner, cylindrical); also show that flowering rhizome unit (a) further produce daughter flowering rhizome unit (b) and that the base of aerial shoots (around the abscission zone) are swollen and semi-transparent (blue arrow). E. Z. integrilabrum Hance (vegetative rhizome units comprise a long-cylindrical pseudo-neck and an obovoid head, flowering rhizome units long-cylindrical). Flowering rhizome units that can be identified with certainty in A–E are marked with red arrows. Some root tubers are marked with green arrows. Scale bars = 1 cm. Photos: Lin Bai.

Data from: Cytoplasmic DNA variation and biogeography of Larix Mill. in Northeast Asia
Range-wide variation in 54 populations of Dahurian larch (Larix gmelinii) and related taxa in Northeast Asia was assessed with four mitochondrial PCR-RFLP and five chloroplast SSR markers. Eleven mitotypes and 115 chlorotypes were detected. The highest diversity was observed in the southern Russian Far East where hybrids of L. gmelinii, L. olgensis and L. kamtschatica are distributed. In contrast, only two mitotypes occurred in L. cajanderi and L. gmelinii. The Japanese larch (L. kaempferi) was found to be closely related to populations of L. kamtschatika inhabiting the Kuril Islands and South Sakhalin, populations from the northern part of Sakhalin being more closely related to continental species. In general, both mitochondrial (GST = 0.786; NST = 0.823) and chloroplast (GST = 0.144; RST = 0.432) markers showed a strong phylogeographical structure and evidence of isolation-by-distance. Yet both markers did not allow a clear delineation of species borders. In particular, and contrary to expectations, cpDNA was not significantly better than mtDNA to delineate species borders. This lack of concordance between morphological species and molecular markers could reflect extensive ancestral haplotype sharing and past and ongoing introgression. Finally the distribution of mtDNA and cpDNA variation suggests the presence of several refugia during Pleistocene glacial intervals. In particular, mDNA and cpDNA reveal weak but visible differentiation between L. gmelinii and L. cajanderi suggesting independent glacial histories of these species.

We are what we eat, plus some per mill: Using stable isotopes to estimate diet composition in Gyps vultures over space and time
<p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>1. Dietary studies in birds of prey involve direct observation and examination of food remains at resting and nesting sites. Although these methods accurately identify diet in raptors, they are time consuming, resource intensive and associated with biases that stem from the feeding ecology of raptors like <i>Gyps </i>vultures (<i>Gyps africanus</i> and <i>Gyps rueppelli</i>). Our study set out to estimate diet composition in <i>Gyps </i>vultures informed by stable isotopes that provide a good representation of assimilated diet from carrion resources in local systems. </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p>2. We hypothesized that differences in <i>Gyps </i>vulture diet composition is a function of sampling location, and that these vultures move between Serengeti National Park and Selous Game Reserve to forage. We also, theorized that grazing ungulates are the principal items in <i>Gyps</i> vulture diet. </p> <p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>3. Through a combination of linear and Bayesian models, diet derived from d<sup>13</sup>C in <i>Gyps</i> vultures consisted of grazing herbivores across study areas, with those in Serengeti National Park consuming higher proportions of grazing herbivores (> 87%). d<sup>13</sup>C differences in vulture feather subsets per site did not indicate vulture diet change, and in combination with blood d<sup>13</sup>C, vultures fed largely on grazers for ~159 days before they were sampled in both sites. Similarly, d<sup>15</sup>N values implied that <i>Gyps </i>vultures fed largely on herbivores across space and time. d<sup>34</sup>S ratios separated prey source for vultures between the two sites. d<sup>34</sup>S variation in vultures across sites resulted from differences in baseline (plant) d<sup>34</sup>S values, though it is not possible to match d<sup>34</sup>S to specific locations. </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>4. Our findings highlight the relevance of repeated sampling that considers tissues with varying isotopic turnover and emerging Bayesian techniques for dietary studies using stable isotopes. Findings also suggested limited vulture movement between the two local systems. However, more sampling coupled with telemetry is required to fully comprehend this observation and its implications to <i>Gyps</i> vulture ecology and conservation.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
