Opening Messages

Dr. Bambang Sunarko Director, Research Center for Biology, LIPI Good morning distinguished lecturers and participants, Honorable Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen, It gives me a great pleasure, as head of Research Center for Biology to extend a warm welcome at the opening session of training on Extended Taxonomic Capacity Building for Sustainable Use of Biodiversity: Bryophytes and Pteridophytes. On this occasion I would like to express my gratitutde to the firm support of Ministry of Environment (MoE) Japan, the ASEAN Centre for Biodiversity (ACB), the Japan Wildlife Research Center (JWRC), and East and South east Asia Biodiversity InformationInitiative (ESABII). My deep appreciation goes to all lecturers and participants of this training program who have spared the time to come to this important program. My gratitude should also go to the Organizer for their hard work in making the preparation of this training program. The purpose of this training is to firstly generate new taxonomists who play important role to the work on biodiversity and to establish a new collaboration among the scientists who particularly come from South East Asia Member States. The lack of trained young taxonomist and inadequate capacities on taxonomy has been stressed as one of the obstacle in the implementation of CBD commitments, and to rich the goal of Aichi Biodiversity Targets especially in the ASEAN region. Lack of scientific information on biodiversity in this region is a crucial issue in the inventory and prediction of biodiversity changes, caused mainly by the lack of taxonomic capacity in data collection and analysis. Under these above circumstances, this kind of training is highly needed. As a national herbarium in Indonesia, Herbarium Bogoriense has been supportive of this kind of activities and it has actively explored the diversity of Indonesian flora. It deposits more than 1 million herbarium specimens, including a large number of type specimens. Furthermore, the HerbariumBogoriense actively collaborates with national and international organizations. To date,the Herbarium Bogoriense has collaborated with many universities throughout Indonesia, in providing necessary facilities to satisfy the research needs for graduate students in the form of the use of the herbarium collections and other research materials. LIPI experts on plant systematics and ecologyhas actively contributed to university graduate programs as lecturers and supervisors in several leading universities in Indonesia. I believe that this training program will develop a fruitful cooperation among all participants, which will in turn lead to the development of taxonomy in the Asia, particularly in Southeast Asia. I hope that by being here you will be able to form new collaborations and so expand further growing international collaboration in flora diversity in the region. Last but not least, I do hope all of you enjoy visiting Bogor, Cibinong and Cibodas and also have a fruitful training course. Officially I open the training on Extended Taxonomic Capacity Building for Sustainable Use of Biodiversity: Bryophytes and Pteridophytes. Thank you.

Mr. Dana A. Kartakasuma ASOEN Chairperson Asst. Minister, Global Environment, Ministry of Environment Indonesia Dr. Bambang Sunarko, Director Research Center for Biology LIPI Dr. Hidetsugu Miwa, Ministry of the Environment , Japan Dr. Filiberto Pollisco, Jr. ASEAN Centre for Biodiversity Distinguished Participants Ladies and gentlemen Assalamu’alaikum Warohmatullohi Wabarokatuh Good Morning, First of all, allow me to express my sincere gratitude to LIPI, ACB, MOE-Japan and the ASEAN Secretariat for arranging and hosting the “Extended Taxonomy Capacity Building for Sustainable Use of Biodiversity: Bryophytes and Pteridophytes”. On this occasion, I wish to extend my appreciation and warm welcome to all of you that have made effort to come here in Cibinong, Bogor and participate in this training workshop. I am greatly honored and pleased to be given the opportunity to deliver my message at this very important event. Distinguished participants, ladies and gentlemen We all have responsibilities for the future of our world and a common obligation to resolve environmental issues, as “environmental security” is undeniably a fundamental pillar of global security along with economic and political security. This event reflects our continued commitment as a global community to secure the world’s environment, in particular to the issue of biodiversity. Global biodiversity is being lost at an unprecedented rate as a result of human activities, and decisions must be taken now to combat this trend. But how do decisionmakers decide where to establish protected areas if they don’t know what is being protected? How can regulators identify and combat harmful invasive species if they cannot distinguish them from native species? How do developing countries ensure that they reap the benefits of the use of their biological diversity if they don’t know the biological diversity that is being used? Distinguished participants, ladies and gentlemen The Conference of the Parties of CBD recognized that conservation and sustainable use of biological diversity are essential to the survival of species and also benefits humankind, particularly those people who are dependent on biological diversity for their livelihoods. The importance of integrating the conservation and sustainable use of biological diversity into sectoral or cross-sectoral plans, programmes and policies and of addressing this issue in national biodiversity strategies and action plans was also recognized. Managing the use of biodiversity and ecosystems demands an integrated approach that reconciles ecological, social and economic dimensions. Research that tackles these three elements simultaneously is challenging due to disparate disciplinary thinking and dialects. Taxonomy is essential to implementation of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). Taxonomic knowledge is a key input in the management of all types of ecosystems, from marine areas to forests and drylands. It is also a key in effectively addressing alien species, access and benefit-sharing and the many other cross-cutting issues under the Convention. Each country and region, in addressing this wide range of biodiversity issues has different needs and priorities regarding taxonomic support. Taxonomy provides the basic foundations of conservation practice and sustainable management of the world’s remaining resources. It is perhaps time to better integrate the science of taxonomy back into the conservation world to meet the global biodiversity challenge that we currently face. Taxonomy also provides basic understanding about the components of biodiversity which is necessary for effective decision – making about conservation and sustainable use.

Distinguished participants, ladies and gentlemen ACB as an ASEAN institution has a mandate to facilitate cooperation and coordination among the ASEAN Member States and with relevant national government, regional and international organizations, on the framework to achieve the three objectives of the CBD, namely conservation, sustainable use, and fair and equitable sharing of benefits from the use of biodiversity. Therefore, the ACB has important roles to create good cooperation amongst ASEAN Member States, not only for other purposes such as creative understanding on the importance of biodiversity and communication amongst the ASEAN Member States, not only for the project activities but also for other purposes such as create understanding on the importance of biodiversity and good communication amongst ASEAN member states. The existence of the ASEAN Centre for Biodiversity is important to provide services to the needs of the ASEAN Member States in supporting their global commitments. ACB is also important to facilitate cooperation and coordination among the AMS and with other relevant parties on the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity. Therefore I would greatly appreciate to ACB who has collaborated with ESABII in the implementation of this training workshop. My gratitude also goes to the Ministry of the Environment of japan, the ASEAN Secretariat and LIPI for the support so it can hold this training workshop. Lastly, I certainly hope this four days ahead of us would bring about the fruitful results which essentially enhance your skills in terrestrial plants taxonomy especially on mosses and ferns, advanced taxonomic methodologies and experience in collection management, cataloguing and storage cooperation and promote our contribution in addressing the biodiversity. Thank you.

Introduction

T

he Southeast Asian region boasts of globally significant terrestrial and marine biodiversity. While it occupies only 3 percent of the world’s surface, it is estimated that 19 percent of all species assessed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) can be found in the region’s habitats. Southeast Asia also boasts of the world’s most diverse coral reefs and includes the mega-diverse countries of Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. Its high species endemicity and diversity brings the region to the fore of the world’s critical habitats that are of high importance to global environmental sustainability. The ASEAN Biodiversity Outlook 2010 confirms that the region is increasingly losing its biodiversity at an alarming rate within various ecosystems – forest, agroecosystems, peatland, freshwater, mangroves, coral reefs and seagrass. The Outlook underscores that the drivers of biodiversity loss in the ASEAN region continue to intensify. These include ecosystems and habitat change, climate change, invasive alien species, over-exploitation, pollution and poverty. Addressing the taxonomic impediment The lack of trained human resources and inadequate capacities on taxonomy has been stressed as one of the obstacles in the implementation of commitments to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), especially in the ASEAN region. The region’s dynamic growth in recent years has increased the pressure on its natural resources. Human activities, the driving force behind the regional growth, threaten the biological resources. Lack of scientific information on biodiversity in this region is a crucial issue in the assessment and prediction of biodiversity changes, caused mainly by the lack of taxonomic capacity in data collection and analysis. Currently, the increasing use of herbal and organic resources in commerce and trade and in the industry

pose alarming concerns for the sustainability of the region’s biodiversity. For instance, the lack of capacity on the identification of species at the Customs is a huge obstacle in preventing the illegal trade of threatened species listed on the Appendices of the Convention on the International Trade on Endangered Species (CITES), and the introduction of invasive alien species that are damaging to the ecosystem, agriculture, fisheries, and human health. Adequate capacity on species identification among Customs authorities for monitoring domestic markets and trading companies will be very crucial for the unification of ASEAN countries as far as trading of genetic materials and species is concerned. Taxonomic classifications of these bioresources, therefore, will be vital in the comprehensive identification of these potential resources and in the formulation of suitable mechanisms that will regulate industrial and commercial utilization and production of these resources, specifically bryophytes and pteridophytes. This will help ensure the efficient use and sustainability in the future, in compliance with the CBD and the attainment of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Moreover, it will protect and strengthen the cultural identity, spiritual values, and appreciation of biodiversity among the peoples of ASEAN while boosting opportunities for livelihood, business, ecotourism, education, and research in the region. Ultimately, taxonomic classifications of bioresources will contribute significantly to the global efforts to meet the United Nations MDGs on the environment and achieve a significant reduction in the rate of biodiversity loss by 2020 as a commitment to the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity, including the Aichi Targets (2011-2020). The 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro gave birth to the CBD. The three goals of this convention – conservation of biological diversity, sustainable use of its components, and fair and equitable sharing of the

Basic Taxonomy of Bryophytes ond Pteridophytes (Mosses, Ferns ond Fern Allies)


benefits arising from the use of genetic resources – have become prime points on the political agenda of most of the world’s governments. Understanding the GTI Programme of Work Achieving these goals depends largely on humans’ understanding of biodiversity. Yet, in many countries of the world, particularly in the tropics, many species remain poorly known or undescribed and unnamed. Taxonomy – the science of describing, naming and classifying organisms – has been hampered by the shortage or dire lack of expertise at the regional and local levels leading to the worldwide efforts of addressing this concern through the Global Taxonomy Initiative (GTI). A summary report of the First GTI Workshop in Asia stated, “it was a global consensus that no single country has the expertise or funding to fully document its biodiversity, although as a basis for sustainable management of resources, and to ensure adequate access to these genetic resources and the protection of rights at national and sub-national levels (CBD Art. 15), adequate knowledge in taxonomy is vital.” (Wilson et al., 2003). At the 6th Meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the CBD (COP 6), an operational programme of work for the GTI was endorsed (COP Decision VI/8, paragraph 5). This programme of work not only sets the operative objectives, but also provides the rationale for the choice of the operational targets. It was concluded that the quick and successful implementation of this programme of work will, to a large extent depend on: (i) coordinating it with existing national, regional and global initiatives, partnerships and institutions such as, inter alia, the Global Biodiversity Initiative Facility (GBIF) and BioNET-International, and (ii) taxonomic capacity building at the national and regional levels. The programme of work of the GTI consists of five operational objectives: (1) assess taxonomic needs and capacities at national, regional and global levels for the implementation of the Convention; (2) provide focus to help build and maintain the human resources, systems and infrastructure needed to obtain, collate and curate the biological specimens that are the basis for taxonomic knowledge; (3) facilitate an improved and effective infrastructure/system for access to taxonomic information with priority on ensuring that countries of origin gain access to information concerning elements of their biodiversity; (4) within the major thematic work programmes of the Convention, include key taxonomic objectives to generate information needed for decisionmaking in conservation and sustainable use of biological

diversity and its components; and (5) within the work on cross-cutting issues of the Convention, include key taxonomic objectives to generate information needed for decision-making in conservation and sustainable use of biological diversity and its components. The programme of work with deliverable outcomes was adopted during the 9th Meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the CBD (COP 9) under Decision IX/22. Hence, Parties to the convention were urged to carry out and promote the programme of work for the GTI through coordination of its implementation with existing national, regional, sub-regional, and global initiatives, partnerships and institutions, designation of national GTI focal points, provision of updated information about legal requirements for exchange of genetic/biological specimens, and about current legislation and rules for access and benefit sharing in terms of the needs for the GTI, and initiatives of setting up of national and regional networks to aid the Parties in their taxonomic needs in implementing the CBD. Enhancing taxonomic skills in the ASEAN region To push the GTI programme of work, a series of workshops was conducted in various venues: 2001 for Central America and Africa, 2002 for Asia, and 2004 for Asia-Oceania (Wilson et al., 2003; NIES, 2005). In support of these initiatives, the ESABII was started in January 2009 in collaboration with the ASEAN Member States, China, Japan, Mongolia, and the Republic of Korea. This initiative mainly aims to promote the development of biodiversity information and taxonomic capacity building needed for developing policies in the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity. In support of this, the ASEAN + 3 Regional Workshop on Global Taxonomy Initiative: Needs Assessment and Networking was jointly organized by the ESABII, the ASEAN Centre for Biodiversity, the French Government through its embassies in the Philippines and Thailand in May 2009. Held in Los Baños, Laguna in the Philippines, the scientific meeting was supported by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) and other Japanese agencies, the French Agricultural Research Center for International Development (CIRAD), the French Research Institute for Development (IRD), the Museum National de Histoire Naturelle (MNHN) of France, European Distributed Institute of Taxonomy (EDIT), and Global Network for Taxonomy (Bionet). It was attended by about a hundred scientists from member-states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines,

Basic Taxonomy of Bryophytes ond Pteridophytes (Mosses, Ferns ond Fern Allies)


Singapore, Thailand, Timor-Leste, and Viet Nam), China, Japan and Korea. The workshop was held to assess the needs on taxonomy in the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity that stresses the need for trainings and capacity building to be able to use taxonomy as a tool towards this end. A major output of the workshop was a regional action plan in accordance with the CBD-GTI PoW. With the political affirmation from the ASEAN Member States making ACB as a full-fledged regional and international institution, the ACB is fast becoming a regional center of excellence of biodiversity conservation in the ASEAN region. Guided by its vision that biodiversity is protected, conserved and managed and sustainably used, its benefits fairly and equally shared for the social, economic and environmental well-being of the region’s more than 600 million people, the ACB is bent on taking a leadership role and championing the cause of preserving the rich but highly threatened ASEAN biodiversity. Working on GTI as a key thematic area forms part of this vision,. The Centre is working in tandem with ESABII to expand these initiatives into the ASEAN + 3.

ryophytes are terrestrial plants that do not have true vascular tissues. Mosses, liverworts and hornworts belong in this group of terrestrial “nonvascular” plants. They are found growing on soil, rocks and / or trees and can be found throughout the world. Although small in stature, they play a significant role in diverse ecological systems. They are an essential part of this planet’s biodiversity. Pteridophytes, also terrestrial plants, has vascular tissues and have leaves (known as fronds), roots and sometimes true stems, and tree ferns have full trunks. They are more popularly known as ferns and fern allies. Pteridophytes do not have seeds or flowers but they reproduce through spores.

Unimplemented topics for taxonomic capacity building from Year 1 (Taxonomic Capacity Building and Governance for Conservation and Sustainable Use of Biodiversity) and Year 2 (Expanded Taxonomic Capacity Building and Governance for Conservation and Sustainable Use of Biodiversity) identified during the Y1 and Y2 Inception Meeting Workshops will be implemented in Year 3. In the Y1 Inception Meeting Workshop held in Manila, Philippines in August 2010, Bryophytes and Pteridophytes were identified to

be implemented in the third year of the Japan-ASEAN Integration Fund (JAIF)-supported project. Furthermore, the Y2 Planning and Inception Workshop held in Hanoi, Viet Nam on 5-6 March 2012 identified “insects” as another topic for implementation for 2012; however, the meeting agreed that this be conducted in the third year since the Y2 2012 activities were fully subscribed. For Year 3 implementation, there are three topics that would be taken up in the training. These are the bryophytes (mosses), pteridophytes (ferns) and the economicallyimportant insects, which are the predators and parasitoids. The training on bryophytes and pteridophytes can be conducted as a single activity or it can be implemented separately, depending on the availability of funds. The training on economically-important insects is a separate activity. Training Workshop on Bryophytes and Pteridophytes Objectives Generally, the training workshop would enhance the capacity of participants in the rigors of taxonomy especially on the terrestrial plants group on Bryophytes and Pteridophytes. Specifically, the training workshop will: 1. Introduce the participants to the taxonomy of terrestrial plants particularly the mosses and ferns 2. Familiarize the participants to the general biology of these plants 3. Upgrade the taxonomic skills of the participants on (a) Methods of morphological observation, (b) Sample collection, processing and managing 4. Provide hands-on experience through a field exercise in collection Expected Outputs The outputs of the training workshop will be the following: 1. Upgrade the skills of the participants in terrestrial plants taxonomy especially on mosses and ferns 2. Advanced taxonomic methodologies introduced to the participants 3. Provide hands-on experience in collections management, cataloguing and storage 4. A Training Manual on Mosses and Ferns Participants to the Training Workshop Those who will participate in this Training workshop will be representatives of the ASEAN Member states who have background in botany, plant ecology and related field.

Basic Taxonomy of Bryophytes ond Pteridophytes (Mosses, Ferns ond Fern Allies)


They must be less than 45 years old and have an academic or government position which involves work on terrestrial botany or plant ecology. Agenda of the Training Workshop The following are the topics to be discussed in the training workshop: 1. Taxonomy and systematics of mosses and ferns 2. Ecology and forest dynamics 3. Herbarium specimen collection 4. Ecological sampling mosses andferns 5. Field trip for hands-on collection of mosses and ferns 6. Report writing Resource Persons The experts on the taxonomy of bryophytes and pteridophytes who will conduct the training are: 1. Dr. Benito Tan, Plant Taxonomist - Bryophytes, University of Berkeley, California, USA 2. Dr. Edwino S. Fernando, Plant Taxonomist, University of the Philippines Los Banos, Philippines 3. Dr. Dedy Darnaedi, Plant Taxonomist – Pteridophytes, RCB, LIPI, Indonesia Duration of the Training 5 days Effective Number of Training Hours Laboratory Facility and Herbarium Orientation – 4 hours Pteridophytes – 6 hours of lectures Bryophytes – 6 hours of lectures Field Exercise –8 hours of field work in the Cibodas Botanic Garden

that would be examinedunderthe microscope. Briefings will be held on how to handle and focus the microscope. The laboratory rules will be discussed as well. The Herbarium is a repository of systematically arranged collections of plant specimens, labeled and categorized for easy access. The group will bebriefed on what it contains, where to find the plant specimens for study, and how these are arranged.

Part 2: Lecture Series • The lecture series will bedivided into the bryophytes and pteridophytes since the two plant groups are different from each other. Each plant group will befurther divided into specific topics touching on the taxonomy, ecology, and economic importance. Part 3: Field Exercise / Hands-on Experience • After the theoretical part of the course, the participants will be taken to a field exercise in the Cibodas Botanic Garden. The participants will be divided into the Bryophyte group and the Pteridophyte group. Each group will besupervised by a resource person. The groups will be taken inside the Botanic Garden where the ferns and mosses are found. They will be taught how to collect the specimens, which plant parts to collect, and how to carry the specimens prior to processing them in the herbarium.

Organization of the Training Workshop A pre-evaluation questionnaire will be distributed among the participants. This pre-evaluation survey would determine the participants’ level of knowledge in terms of the topics of the training course before the conduct of the activity. A sample questionnaire is attached as Annex A. The training course is divided into four parts.

Part 4: Feedback of Participants • This is the part where the participants will be asked about the course and what improvements they think should be made. Their observations, insights, and technical inputs would be valuable in conducting succeeding training activities of the same topic. • The post-evaluation questionnaire will also handed out for the participants to fill out. This survey would determine if the participants have gained any knowledge in the training course. A sample of the post-evaluation questionnaire is attached as Annex B.

Part 1: Laboratory and Herbarium Orientation Tour • This is a tour of the facilities that would be used in the course of the training. The laboratory houses the microscopes and equipment used in dissecting the specimens of mosses and ferns

Programming the Topics and Time Distribution This sample programme of activities could be used in preparing a similar training course. Adjustments could be madein accordance withthe requirements of the training activity.

Aichi Biodiversity Targets

Taxonomy in Aichi Biodiversity Targets of the CBD • Target 9. By 2020, invasive alien species and pathways are identified and prioritized, priority species are controlled or eradicated, and measures are in place to manage pathways to prevent their introduction and establishment. • Target 12. By 2020 the extinction of known threatened species has been prevented and their conservation status, particularly of those in decline, has been improved and sustained

• Information system and data sharing • Clearing House Mechanism (CHM) • ESABII (East and South East Asia Biodiversity Information Initiative)

Plant taxonomy – systematic Conclusions

1. Taxonomy is an old science but always developed and important as fundamental for any others biological sciences (at ecosystem, species and genetic variation level) 2. Plant species diversity in ASEAN Region still poorly known, it needs intensive exploration and taxonomic works (Local Flora and Flora Malesiana) 3. High rate of biodiversity loss in the region needs conservation action. Status of species is important. 4. Taxonomy strongly related to Aichi Biodiversity Targets 9, and 12. 5. Developing data base and networking among ASEAN member states and others in the region and global is important. Contribute to GBIF, CHM.

• Plant systematic serves as a major unifying force in biology because it uses data from a multitude of discipline, such as molecular biology, biochemestry, comparative phytochemestry, electron microscope as well as morphology, ecology, biography to develop a framework upon which classification can be developed. Indeed without the system of nomenclature provided by plant taxonomy, there could be no comparative refrence to name of plants (Jones, S.B & A.E. Luchsinger, 1987).

What have we learned from studying the bryophytes 

The  moss is the first bryophyte to have the genome completely sequenced for genomic and genetic studies.

Having a haploid body makes the interpretation of gene and character interaction more easy and direct in a moss model.

• Lycophytes have small leaves with only a single unbranched vein. • These leaves, called microphylls, probably evolved from tissue flaps on the surface of stems. • Vascular tissue then grew into the flaps.

• In contrast, the leaves of ferns and other vascular plants, megaphylls, are much larger and have highly-branched vascular system. • A branched vascular system can deliver water and minerals to the expanded leaf. • It can also export larger quantities of sugars from the leaf. • This supports more photosynthetic activity.

Rhizome Branching

Rhizome used for those with creeping or climbing habit. If short caudex is used; for erect stems (e.g. tree ferns), trunk is used.

Creeping rhizomes: long-creeping with widely spaced fronds or short-creeping with fronds relatively close together. Rhizomes: radial or radially symmetric or dorsiventral with leaves or fronds produced on the dorsal or upper side and roots produced on ventral or lower side.

Sometimes the branching is regularly dichotomous, sometimes with alternate branches reduced to a great or lesser extent. Rhizome covering takes the form

epidermal hairs, or scales (palea), or a combination of

Internal structure of the rhizome Can provide useful diagnostic characters especially from the arrangement of the

vascular bundles and leaf traces.

Sometimes the surface of the rhizome is glaucous with a bluish grey waxy sheen and sometimes with a dense white waxy or with hairs or bristles or scales on the surface. Often useful diagnostic characters that may be lost with collecting and preservation techniques.

Leaves of typical and true ferns are usually called fronds; those of ‘fern allies’ referred to as leaves.

Fern fronds are

are simple and undivided, not often toothed, sessile, with a single unbranched vein and are often small; they are called microphylls.

The spore-producing organs are borne on the leaves and those that do so are called fertile and those without, sterile. The fertile fronds may be of markedly different size, shape or orientation to the sterile fronds and this is known as dimorphism.

Fiddleheads, also called ‘croziers’ are circinately coiled leaf buds. Highly distinctive of ferns because they are absent in lycophytes and nearly all seed plants.

Aerophores are also characteristic of nearly all leptosporangiate fern leaves. Their surfaces bear stomata that allow air to diffuse into the loosely packed parenchyma beneath.

Morphological features

Overview • Biological species concept • Utility of DNA analysis in taxonomy • Molecular taxonomical study: Cryptic species of Asplenium nidus in Mt. Halimun national park • My research: two cryptic species of A. setoi in Japan

→Overlapped variation, Not distinguishable

Biological species concept

What is species?

• Different phenotypes do not always constitute different species • Lack of objectivity Canis lupus familiaris

Argyranthemum frutescens

Homo sapiens

• Most basic unit in taxonomy • Morphological species: common variation/phenotypes

Reproductive isolation • Mechanisms to prevent two different species from producing offspring pre-mating isolation post-mating pre-zygotic isolation post-zygotic isolation

ecological isolation temporal isolation behavioral isolation mechanical isolation

gametic isolation hybrid inviability hybrid sterility hybrid breakdown

More scientific definition: Biological species concept • interbreed in nature, reproductively isolated

Advantage and disadvantage of biological species concept • Reasonable for phylogenic study Reproductive isolation

species B

• Not applicable to assexually reproducing organisms and fossil organisms • Extent of reproductive isolation is often gradual

Can biological species be recognizable by morphology? • Recognizable: bird, fish, flowering plant pollinated by animals → visually attract mates/pollinators • Not recognizable: fern, bryophytes, fungi →No eyes, no need of help by animals with vision

Utility of DNA information

Method of DNA analysis • PCR: Amplifying specific DNA fragment with DNA polymerase • Sequencing: Determining nucleotide sequence • Alignment: Comparing the obtained sequence

Sample A Sample B Sample C Sample D

• Abundant • Easy to handle • Objective →Efficient search of cryptic species

Analysis of the Survey

F

or this GTI workshop conducted in February 2014, survey questionnaires were handed out to the participants before and after the training course. There were a total of 16 participants who responded to the survey: Indonesia (3), Laos (2), Malaysia (2), Myanmar (2), the Philippines (1), Singapore (2), Thailand (2) and Viet Nam (2). 1. The pre-training evaluation questionnaire had eight (8) questions focusing on the needs to develop participants’ skills, expectations they have of the training, the benefits to their current jobs, the weaknesses they felt prior to the training, their learning goals, and their supervisors’ expectation. Generally, the participants wanted to develop their taxonomic skill in identification of bryophytes and pteridophytes which they can apply in their research and in biodiversity management and conservation. Many of the participants had minimal knowledge of mosses and ferns. Most of them are familiar about the ferns. However, all of them mentioned having limited or no knowledge of mosses. The participants also expected to have greater chances in availing of similar training courses to enhance their taxonomic skills and experience. 2. The post-training-workshop evaluation revealed that participants were primarily interested in the lecture on the state of the art on global taxonomy in Southeast Asia, and secondly the classification and economic importance of fern

62

and bryophytes. They also provided high scores for the lectures on morphology and ecology of bryophytes and pteridophytes. More than 60 percent of the participants said they gained a good understanding of the three lectures given by the experts. The remaining participants mentioned that the lectures were excellent. All participants rated as excellent the experts’ knowledge and skills. The biggest learning experiences cited were the improvement of their knowledge and the experiences they had during the field work. Information sharing between the participants and experts were likewise were well-appreciated. Participants evaluated the training workshop as an excellent course. They were satisfied with the lectures, the exercises, and the field work. However, they felt the need for more time to gain greater knowledge and to conduct more field work to improve their skills in field identification and classification of the bryophytes and pteridophytes. The participants recommended that informal network of the taxonomy of mosses and ferns be set up among the ASEAN Member States. Pre-and Post-Training Evaluation Results Pre-Training Evaluation Number of Participants – 16: Indonesia – 3, Lao PDR – 2, Malaysia – 2 (1 Evaluation form), Myanmar – 2, the Philippines – 1, Singapore – 2, Thailand – 2, Vietnam – 2.
