Chromosome number: not known.</p> <p> <i>Distribution. Solanum coalitum</i> is endemic to Ecuador, known only from the páramo of Cerro Toledo south of Loja along the road leading to the Peruvian border, on ridges between the towns of Yangana and Valladolid, at 3150–3460 m in the southwestern corner of Parque Nacional Podocarpus.</p> <p> <i>Phenology. Solanum coalitum</i> has most often been collected in flower between October and December, during the dry season. All specimens are in flower, but the type is the only collection with mature fruits. It is likely that fruiting material will be found in January or February.</p> <p> <i>Etymology. Solanum coalitum</i> is named in honor of two botanical couples, Gwilym Lewis (K) and Bente Klitgaard (BM), who collected the type specimen, and Peter Jørgensen and Carmen Ulloa (both MO), who collected one of the paratypes. They are sterling examples of strong and companionable botanical partnerships (from ‘‘coalitus,’’ Latin for communion or fellowship).</p> <p> <i>Solanum coalitum</i> is a striking species with its large, fleshy, bright purple flowers and black fruits (see Fig. 2). It is a member of the <i>S. nitidum</i> species group (sensu Knapp, 1989), sharing with the other species in that group plurifoliate sympodial units, monochasial growth, large purple or violet flowers, and pedicels inserted into a distinct ‘‘sleeve’’ (see fig. 2 in Knapp, 1989). Genus-wide phylogenetic studies using a variety of molecular markers (Bohs, 2005; Weese & Bohs, 2007) have shown that the species of this group are part of a monophyletic group containing taxa related to <i>S. dulcamara</i> L. (bittersweet) and a wide variety of other species with worldwide distribution (the Dulcamaroid clade of Bohs, 2005). The recognition of <i>S. pubigerum</i> Dunal (Mexico to Costa Rica) and <i>S. aligerum</i> Schlechtendal (Mexico to Argentina) as sister taxa of the <i>S. nitidum</i> species group (Knapp, 1989) has been supported by molecular data (Bohs, 2005). <i>Solanum valdiviense</i> Dunal (coastal southern Chile) is also a member of this larger group. Together these species can be defined as section <i>Holophylla</i> s.l. Ecuador is home to three endemic species of the <i>S. nitidum</i> species group (<i>S. leiophyllum</i> Bentham, <i>S. imbaburense</i> S. Knapp, and <i>S. coalitum</i>).</p> <p>Some specimens of <i>Solanum coalitum</i> have been identified as <i>S. stenophyllum</i> Dunal, with which it is very similar. <i>Solanum coalitum</i> differs from <i>S. stenophyllum</i> in its subshrub, sometimes trailing habit, its glabrous stems and leaves (except, occasionally, for the occurrence of white trichomes on the stems and a peculiar marginal white trichome band on the leaves), its cyathiform (rather than conical) calyx, and its slightly larger flowers that are glabrous abaxially. Trichomes of <i>S. coalitum</i> when they occur are looser and more openly dendritic than the almost echinoid trichomes of <i>S. stenophyllum</i> that are distinctly yellow or yellow-tinged when dry. The fruiting pedicels of <i>S. stenophyllum</i> appear to be nodding when fruit are mature, while those of <i>S. coalitum</i> are erect. Specimens of <i>S. stenophyllum</i> have been collected from the province of Loja (i.e., <i>Jørgensen et al. 477</i>, <i>1068</i>, BM) from further north and at slightly lower (2600–3000 m) elevations in drier and/or degraded forests. <i>Solanum stenophyllum</i> grows as a shrub or small treelet, usually in disturbed situations. Some individuals of <i>S. stenophyllum</i> in southern Ecuador are very sparsely pubescent, but the conical calyx and yellowish, closely branched trichomes serve to distinguish these plants.</p> <p> <i>Solanum coalitum</i> would key out with <i>S. leiophyllum</i>, <i>S. macbridei</i> Hunziker & Lallana (southern Peru and Bolivia), and <i>S. imbaburense</i> in the key in Knapp (1989), being distinguished from <i>S. imbaburense</i> by its broadly deltate, rather than long-triangular calyx lobes, and its leaves with sparsely papillate undersides.</p> <p> <i>Habitat.</i> The sole locality in which <i>Solanum coalitum</i> has been encountered is the páramo of Cerro Toledo in the extreme southwestern corner of Parque Nacional Podocarpus, one of the largest protected areas in Ecuador. Cerro Toledo is a mixed páramo of tussock grasses and shrubby vegetation on the divide of the Cordillera de Sabanillas; the area is a pathway used by local people to take cattle from one drainage to another, and as such has a medium level of disturbance (Hofstede et al., 2002). Roads constructed by the military to allow access to radio towers have opened the area to others. Hofstede et al. (2002) suggested that the inhospitable nature of the climate in the region (wet, cold, and windy) will limit human incursion on a large scale. Cerro Toledo is isolated from other páramo regions of southern Ecuador, and represents one of the southernmost extensions of the páramo habitat in the Andes (Luteyn, 1999).</p> <p> <i>IUCN Red List category.</i> The fact that <i>Solanum coalitum</i> occurs only within the boundaries of the Parque Nacional Podocarpus is good news for its ultimate protection and conservation, but its very restricted distribution in an isolated habitat means it certainly is of some conservation concern. Using the IUCN criteria (IUCN, 2001), I assess this species as having a preliminary conservation status of Endangered (EN) due to its restricted distribution of less than 100 km 2 in a fragmented and isolated habitat. Population-level data may reveal that the species is, in fact, Critically Endangered (CR), but this is currently not assessable from the available herbarium specimens.</p> <p> <i>Paratypes.</i> ECUADOR. <b>Loja</b>: carr.

Solanum sousae is known only from southern Mexico in the states of Puebla and Oaxaca, in mesophyllous forests and oak-pine- Liquidambar forests on steep slopes with rich soils, from 1600–1900 m. Etymology. Solanum sousae is named in honour of Mario Sousa Sánchez (MEXU), whose dedication to the advance of knowledge of the Mexican flora has resulted in a whole new generation of Mexican botanists. Preliminary conservation status. Solanum sousae is known from only three widely dispersed collections, none of which falls within a protected area. It must be considered at threat, but further collecting and observation are a priority. Additional specimens examined. MEXICO. Oaxaca: Mpio. Santa María Chimalapa, Cerro de los Pavos, al N de Cerro Guayabitos y al O del Río Portemonedas, ca. 47 km en línea recta al N de San Pedro Tapanatepec, 16 ° 479N, 94 ° 109W, 22–23 Sep 1986, Maya J. 3938 (MEXU). Puebla: Mpio. Atempan, Puente Viejo, 1900 m, 8 Jul 1986, Ventura A. 22129 (MEXU). Solanum sousae is superficially similar to S. pyrifolium Lam. of Hispaniola, but differs from that species in its more broadly triangular inflorescence outline (Fig. 5A), minute calyx lobes without thickened margins (Fig. 5B) and in its lack of a prominent submarginal leaf vein. The leaf pubescence of the two species is very similar, but S. sousae is in general more densely pubescent on the new growth and abaxial corolla surfaces. Solanum sousae differs from the more common and sympatric S. dulcamaroides Poir. in its white flowers, generally simple pubescence (versus more commonly dendritic in S. dulcamaroides), white rather than purple flowers, and in its anthers that are not markedly thickened and rounded abaxially. It is likely that the juvenile leaves of S. sousae are pinnatifid, as are those of most other species in this group; young foliage is only very rarely collected and is often not associated with the flowering stems with simple leaves.Published as part of Knapp, Sandra, 2010, Four New Vining Species of Solanum (Dulcamaroid Clade) from Montane Habitats in Tropical America, pp. 1-8 in PLoS ONE 5 (5) on pages 6-8, DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0010502, http://zenodo.org/record/651743

The preliminary threat status of <i>S. woodii</i> was assessed as Vulnerable (VU, B1) by Särkinen and Knapp (2016); recent collections from Argentina have revealed it to be more widely distributed than previously thought but is rare where it occurs. No occurrences are known within protected areas thus far.</p> <p>Discussion.</p> <p> <i>Solanum woodii</i> is unusual in South American morelloids having tapering, somewhat cone-shaped anthers with a beak-like tip (see Fig. 185C); this character, however, can be difficult to see in older flowers with dehisced anthers. Among other glandular-viscid herbaceous solanums, it could be confused with <i>S. tweedieanum</i> and <i>S. physalifolium</i>. <i>Solanum woodii</i> is sympatric with <i>S. tweedieanum</i> but the latter species has longer calyx lobes in flower (3.5-5(-7) mm) and fruit (>5 mm) and slightly larger ellipsoid anthers (3-)4-4.5 mm long that are rectangular in outline (equally wide along their entire length) rather than broadest at the base; the calyx of <i>S. tweedieanum</i> is accrescent and completely covers the berry at maturity, while that of <i>S. woodii</i> is spreading and does not become accrescent.</p> <p> The unusual anther shape in <i>S. woodii</i> resembles that of <i>S. anomalostemon</i> from the dry inter-Andean valley of the Rio Apurimac in southern Peru (Knapp and Nee 2009). Despite the similarity in anther shape, preliminary molecular data suggest <i>S. woodii</i> is a member of the morelloid lineage, whereas <i>S. anomalostemon</i> is morphologically unique within <i>Solanum</i> in having cordate anthers and has been resolved as an independent lineage not closely related to the Morelloid clade (Gagnon et al. 2022).</p>Published as part of <i>Knapp, Sandra, Saerkinen, Tiina & Barboza, Gloria E., 2023, A revision of the South American species of the Morelloid clade (Solanum L., Solanaceae), pp. 1-342 in PhytoKeys 231</i> on page 1, DOI: 10.3897/phytokeys.231.10089

Proto je nutné použít na popis jádra přibližné metody. Základní přibližné metody v mikroskopické teorii jád- ra jsou Hartree-Fockova teorie, Tamm-Dancoffova aproximace a RPA (random phase approximation). Tyto jsou popsány v první kapitole této práce. Hlavním cílem bylo vyvinout mikroskopické modely pro jádra s nezaplněnými slupkami s dvěmi valečními částicemi nebo dírami. Tyto jsou popsány v druhé kapitole, která obsahuje detailní odvození relevantních vztahu. Tyto metody byli nume- ricky implementovány. Výsledky výpočtu jaderných spekter a pravděpodobností elektromagnetických přechodu jsou uvedeny ve třetí kapitole.

František Knapp, Ph.D., Institute of Particle and Nuclear Physics Abstract: Since the nucleus is a quantum many-body system consisting of con- stituents whose mutual interaction is not satisfactorily known, it is necessary to use approximate methods when describing the nucleus. Basic approximate approaches in the microscopic theory of the nucleus are the Hartree-Fock the- ory, Tamm-Dancoff approximation and random phase approximation. They are described in the first chapter of this thesis. The main aim was to develop mi- croscopic models for open-shell nuclei with two valence particles or holes. They are described in the second chapter, which contains detailed derivations of the relevant formulae. These methods have been numerically implemented. The re- sults of the calculations of the nuclear spectra and the electromagnetic transition probabilities are presented in the third chapter.
