CBA/ABC Bulletin 49(2) 35 PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Both geographically and scientifically, “Botany on the Edge” was a fitting theme for the CBA-ABC’s annual meeting held May 15-18, 2016 at the beautiful University of Victoria on Vancouver Island. One hundred delegates participated in field trips (e.g., to Saltspring Island; the Garry Oak ecosys- tem), the annual banquet, the annual general meeting, plus viewed the 25 posters and attended the 50 talks, including one keynote symposium (“An Exploration of Biological Cre- ativity and New Possibilities”), and a symposium on Tree Biology. Four Section Symposia (Plant Development, Ecol- ogy, Mycology, Teaching) rounded out the program. Thanks to the many participants for their important roles! The Lawson Medal recipient was Luc Brouillet (Univ. de Montréal and Botanic Gardens - IBRV), and the CBA-ABC’s inaugural Magister Teaching Award went to Arunika Gu- nawardena (Dalhousie Univ.).

  • (Balsaminaceae) Using Chloroplast Atpb-Rbcl Spacer Sequences
    Systematic Botany (2006), 31(1): pp. 171–180 ᭧ Copyright 2006 by the American Society of Plant Taxonomists Phylogenetics of Impatiens and Hydrocera (Balsaminaceae) Using Chloroplast atpB-rbcL Spacer Sequences STEVEN JANSSENS,1,4 KOEN GEUTEN,1 YONG-MING YUAN,2 YI SONG,2 PHILIPPE KU¨ PFER,2 and ERIK SMETS1,3 1Laboratory of Plant Systematics, Institute of Botany and Microbiology, Kasteelpark Arenberg 31, B-3001 Leuven, Belgium; 2Institut de Botanique, Universite´ de Neuchaˆtel, Neuchaˆtel, Switzerland; 3Nationaal Herbarium Nederland, Universiteit Leiden Branch, PO Box 9514, 2300 RA Leiden, The Netherlands 4Author for correspondence ([email protected]) ABSTRACT. Balsaminaceae are a morphologically diverse family with ca. 1,000 representatives that are mainly distributed in the Old World tropics and subtropics. To understand the relationships of its members, we obtained chloroplast atpB-rbcL sequences from 86 species of Balsaminaceae and five outgroups. Phylogenetic reconstructions using parsimony and Bayesian approaches provide a well-resolved phylogeny in which the sister group relationship between Impatiens and Hydrocera is confirmed. The overall topology of Impatiens is strongly supported and is geographically structured. Impatiens likely origi- nated in South China from which it colonized the adjacent regions and afterwards dispersed into North America, Africa, India, the Southeast Asian peninsula, and the Himalayan region. Balsaminaceae are annual or perennial herbs with in the intrageneric relationships of Impatiens. The most flowers that exhibit a remarkable diversity. The family recent molecular intrageneric study on Balsaminaceae consists of more than 1,000 species (Grey-Wilson utilized Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) sequences 1980a; Clifton 2000), but only two genera are recog- and provided new phylogenetic insights in Impatiens nized.

M. CHRISTENHUSZ Department of Botany, The Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD, United Kingdom. Impatiens walleriana Hook.f. in Oliver (1868: 302). Protologue: “Mozambique District, Moramballa, 2000 ft., on stones in streams”. Syntypes: J. Kirk s.n. (K!); H. Waller s.n. (K!). Lectotype (designated here): Mozambique, Moramballa, 0-3000 ft., Zambesi Expedition, H. Waller s.n. (K!-000419538). Notes: The name was published as ‘Walleriana’, which according to the ICBN (McNeill et al., 2006) is not a correctable error. The species is sometimes erroneously cited as ‘I. wallerana’. The other syntype, J. Kirk s.n. (K!), is also the holotype of Impatiens sultanii Hooker (1882: t. 6643), a synonym. The well-known bedding plant ‘busy lizzie’, Impatiens walleriana (Balsaminaceae), is a species occurring naturally in East Africa, where it can be found locally abundant in Kenya, Tanzania and Mozambique. It is frequently associated with wet or humid habitats and can thus be found near streams, waterfalls and in gorges or in the understorey of wet forests. Elsewhere in the tropics and subtropics the species can commonly be found naturalised along roads, in secondary forests and other disturbed habitats, where it can form dominant stands, competing out other species (Richardson et al. 2000, Tabak & Wettenberg 2008). Impatiens walleriana was first discovered during one of Dr David Livingstone’s expeditions up the Zambezi River, where he travelled with Dr John Kirk and Ref.

Flowers bisexual, protandrous, zygomorphic, resupinate to through 180° in axillary or subterminal racemes or pseudo-umbellate inflorescences, or not pedunculate, fascicled or solitary. Sepals 3(or 5); lateral sepals free or connate, margins entire or serrate; lower sepal (lip) large, petaloid, usually navicular, funnelform, saccate, or cornute, tapering or abruptly constricted into a nectariferous spur broadly or narrowly filiform, straight, curved, incurved, or ± coiled, swollen at tip, or pointed, rarely 2-lobed, rarely without spur. Petals 5, free, upper petal (standard) flat or cucullate, small or large, often crested abaxially, lateral petals free or united in pairs (wing). Stamens 5, alternating with petals, connate or nearly so into a ring surrounding ovary and stigma, falling off in one piece before stigma ripens; filaments short, flat with a scalelike appendage inside; anthers 2-celled, connivent, opening by a slit or pore. Gynoecium 4- or 5-carpellate, syncarpous; ovary superior, 4- or 5-loculed, each locule with 2 to many anatropous ovules; style 1, very short or ± absent; stigmas 1– 5.
