Biology:North American Dryopteris hybrid complex
From HandWiki
Hybridization and polyploidy are common phenomena in ferns, and the genus Dryopteris is known to be one of the most freely-hybridizing fern genera.[1] North American botanists recognized early that there were close relationships between many of the species of Dryopteris on the continent, and that these relationships reflected hybrid ancestry.[2] The complex includes six sexual diploid parents (one of which, "D. semicristata", is hypothesized to be extinct[3]), six sexual allopolyploids, and numerous sterile hybrids at various ploidal levels.
Diploid species
- Dryopteris intermedia
- Dryopteris expansa
- Dryopteris goldieana
- Dryopteris ludoviciana
- Dryopteris marginalis
- Dryopteris "semicristata"
Allopolyploid species
- Dryopteris carthusiana (D. intermedia × "D. semicristata"; allotetraploid)
- Dryopteris campyloptera (D. intermedia × D. expansa; allotetraploid)
- Dryopteris celsa (D. goldieana × D. ludoviciana; allotetraploid)
- Dryopteris clintoniana (D. cristata × D. goldieana; allohexaploid)
- Dryopteris cristata (D. ludovicana × "D. semicristata"; allotetraploid)
- Dryopteris filix-mas (progenitors D. caucasica and D. oreades)
Other hybrids
- Dryopteris × australis (D. celsa × D. ludoviciana; triploid)
- Dryopteris × bootii (D. cristata × D. intermedia; triploid)
- Dryopteris × critica (D. borreri × D. filix-mas)[4]
- Dryopteris × complexa aggregate (D. filix-mas and D. affinis; tetraploid)[4]
- Dryopteris × convoluta (D. cambrensis × D. filix-mas)[4]
- Dryopteris × deweveri (D. dilatata × D. carthusiana)[4]
- Dryopteris × neo-wherryi (D. goldieana × D. marginalis; diploid)
- Dryopteris × triploidea (D. carthusiana × D. intermedia; triploid)
