Nuphar × spenneriana is a species of rhizomatous aquatic plant native to Europe. It is a natural hybrid of Nuphar lutea and Nuphar pumila.[1]
Description[edit]
Vegetative characteristics[edit]
Nuphar × spenneriana is a perennial, rhizomatous, aquatic plant.[2] The abaxial leaf surface has trichomes towards the leaf margin.[3] The leaf has 15-22 primary nerves.[4]
Generative characteristics[edit]
The androecium consists of 60-100 stamens.[4] The stigmatic disc has 9-15 rays.[3]
Reproduction[edit]
Generative reproduction[edit]
It is fertile, but the pollen may be less viable.[5][6] Pollen fertility can reach 73%. However, it can also be as low as 14% in F1 hybrids.[6] In another case, a female sterility rate of 80%, and a male sterility rate of 85% have been reported.[7] The seeds grow more rapidly than those of the parent species.[5][7]
Taxonomy[edit]
Publication[edit]
It was first described by Jean François Aimé Théophile Philippe Gaudin in 1828.[1]
Natural hybridisation[edit]
It likely arose 10 000 years ago, when both parent species came into contact.[8] Natural hybridisation is a threat to Nuphar pumila, one of the parent species, as the hybrid replaces populations of Nuphar pumila.[5] In Eastern Europe and Asia observations of intermediate plants are rare. In Western Europe hybridisation appears to have played a more significant role.[6]
Etymology[edit]
The hybrid name spenneriana honours Fridolin Carl Leopold Spenner (1798-1841).[9][10]
Ecology[edit]
Habitat[edit]
It occurs in rivers, lakes, streams, and pools.[7][2]
