Boehmeria nivea var. strigosa (Urticaceae), a new variety from Southwest China

Boehmeria nivea var.strigosa Zeng Y.Wu&Y.Zhao,a new variety of B.nivea(Urticaceae)from Southwest China,is here described based on evidence from morphology and molecular phylogeny.This new variety is mainly characterized by its green abaxial leaf blade,partly connate stipules,and densely patent strigose hairs on stems and potioles.The phylogenetic analysis based on rbc L,nrDNA and rbc L+nrDNA datasets,revealed that all individuals of B.nivea var.strigosa formed a monophyletic group.The conservation status of B.nivea var.strigosa is assessed as“Near Threatened”(NT)according to IUCN evaluation criteria.The discovery of this new variety is not only crucial for the taxonomy of ramie,but also provides reference for the exploration and utilization of ramie.

矢量景观指数在遥感信息提取中的应用--以乾安湖群为例

景观方向性是景观空间格局的重要特征,能够反映和影响景观的生态流。实现快速、准确地从遥感影像上自动提取景观的方向性信息,对于景观的驱动力分析和景观异质性分析等都具有十分重要的意义。本文基于面向对象的方法对乾安县TM影像进行多尺度分割提取湖群,并利用正方像元指数SqP提高分类精度,应用矢量景观指数于分割处理后的湖群对象,提取景观的方向性信息。实验结果表明:该方法对象分割精度高(制图精度:97.8%,用户精度:97.5%),方向性信息提取准确、快速,为湖群的成因分析提供了数量化和可视化依据。本文同时结合了两方面的研究方法,提供了两方面的研究思路:一方面是景观格局指数在影像分类中的应用,另一方面是矢量景观格局理论进一步的应用扩展。
