Characteristics of achene morphology and microstructure of Ambrosia artemisiifolia in Jilin Province
[Aim]To investigate the achene morphology and microstructural characteristics of Ambrosia artemisiifolia in various regions of Jilin Province,with the aim of providing an identification basis for its prevention and control.[Method]In this study,achenes from different populations of A.artemisiifolia were collected from 12 regions of Mopan Mountain and Longtan Mountain in Jilin City,Huadi-an City,Jiaohe City,Changchun City,Siping City,Gongzhuling City,Tonghua City,Baishan City,Baicheng City,Songyuan City,and Qian'an County for scanning electron microscopic observation,description,and photography.The correlation between the achene phenotype and geo-climatic factors was analyzed,and the phenotypic characteristics of achenes were examined using cluster analysis.[Result]A.artemisiifolia achene epidermis sculpture was striped-,reticular-and cave-shaped.The beak length of achenes increased with annually increasing precipitation and decreased with increasing latitude,while the achene shape coefficient increased with increas-ing longitude and annual precipitation.A.artemisiifolia was divided into three groups based on the results of cluster analysis of morpho-logical and microstructural characteristics.The first group,which included specimens collected from Jiaohe City,Tonghua City,Gong-zhuling City,Songyuan City,and Qian'an County,was reticular,mesocorphical,and short-beaked.The second group,which included specimens collected from Mopan Mountain in Jilin City,Longtan Mountain in Jilin City,Huadian City,Changchun City,and Siping City,was characterized by its strip-shaped,small-shaped,and medium-long proboscis.The third group of sculptures was cave-shaped,large-shaped,and short-beaked,and included specimens collected from Baishan City and Baicheng City.[Conclusion]The achene morphology and microstructure of A.artemisiifolia differed across Jilin Province,and low latitude and high precipitation are favorable to the growth and development of A.artemisiifolia achenes.
