摘要

Premise of research. The pseudoherbaceous Mississippian lycopsid Oxroadia gracilis has been placed phylo-genetically between the herbaceous protolepidodendraleans (e.g., Leclercqia) and the arborescent lepidodendrids of the Pennsylvanian. The presence or absence of a particular ultrastructural feature in the microspores could support or complicate this interpretation. This feature, which manifests as a multilamellated zone (MZ) in the spore wall between the proximal trilete arms, was thought to be characteristic of the microspores of heterosporous lycopsids until it was demonstrated to be present in the homosporous taxon Leclercqia. It has not, however, been seen in the microspores of arborescent lepidodendrids. If Oxroadia spores possess this feature, the genus may be more closely related to a lineage that leads to extant Isoetes and Selaginella, both of whose microspores also possess this feature. If this feature is lacking in Oxroadia, this may suggest a closer relationship to the lepidodendrids. Methodology. This feature can only be confirmed by examination with transmission electron microscopy. Pivotal results. Microspores of Oxroadia do possess a MZ, adding weight to the proposal that it is allied with a lineage leading to extant heterosporous lycopsids. Furthermore, both the microspores and the megaspores have comparable structures in the innermost spore wall. This is only the second plant in which both microspores and megaspores have been shown to have MZs, and it is the oldest. Conclusions. These results may support the placement of Oxroadia as part of a lineage between the Devonian genus Leclercqia and the extant heterosporous lycopsids. Alternatively, the MZs may have yet to be discovered in microspores of lepidodendrids, and they may be present throughout the lycopsids.
