  • albanian violets of the section melanium their morphological variability genetic similarity and their adaptations to serpentine or Chalk Soils
    Journal of Plant Physiology, 2015
    Co-Authors: Aneta Slomka, Barbara Godzik, Grazyna Szarekłukaszewska, Lulezim Shuka, Kerstin Hoefemden, Hermann Bothe
    Abstract:

    Violets of the section Melanium from Albanian serpentine and Chalk Soils were examined for their taxonomic affiliations, their ability to accumulate heavy metals and their colonization by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). The sequence analysis of the ITS1-5.8S rDNA-ITS2 region showed that all the sampled six Albanian violets grouped between Viola lutea and Viola arvensis, but not with Viola tricolor. The fine resolution of the ITS sequences was not sufficient for a further delimitation of the Albanian violets within the V. lutea–V. arvensis clade. Therefore, the Albanian violets were classified by a set of morphological characters. Viola albanica, Viola dukadjinica and Viola raunsiensis from serpentine Soils as well as Viola aetolica from a Chalk meadow were unambiguously identified, whereas the samples of Viola macedonica showed high morphological variability. All the violets, in both roots and shoots contained less than or similar levels of heavy metals as their harboring Soils, indicating that they were heavy metal excluders. All the violets were strongly colonized by AMF with the remarkable exception of V. albanica. This violet lived as a scree creeper in shallow serpentine soil where the concentration of heavy metals was high but those of P, K and N were scarce.
