Passiflora Incarnata Family: the Passionflower Family, Passifloraceae Of interest this week at Beal... Purple Passionflower Passiflora incarnata Family: the Passionflower family, Passifloraceae. Also called May-Pop, and Wild apricot W. J. Beal The purple passionflower, Passiflora incarnata,is an herbaceous vine, native to the Botanical Garden southeast quadrant of North America. It, and its fruit often are called maypops. It is the fruits of passionflowers that provide the most popular of the food uses for the plant, used in drinks and ice creams. But it is the flower, captivating by its complex beauty, and its history as an icon of Christian myth that generate the most interest. There are many passionflower species (Passiflora spp.) and all of them are native to the new world tropics, or near-tropics. Depending on which taxonomy you choose, there are between 400 and 600 species in this genus. The purple passionflower is found farther outside the tropics than any other passionflower. It has been found at least as far north as Missouri in the West and New Jersey in the eastern United States. Although the intricate and striking flowers are beautiful and fragrant, their connection to passion is not over love or romance. Passion, in this context, refers to the Passion of Christ. Spanish Christian missionaries, saw the numerological aspects of the flower as a sign from God that their mission in the New World was God’s will. When the Vatican received the first drawings of the flowers, the clerics reviewing them thought the illustrations were so fanciful as to not be real. It was not until much later, after many missionaries were interviewed, that these unmistakable flowers were accepted as a possibly real organism. The initial Christian interpretation of the flower was based upon the ten tepals (standing for the apostles, minus Judas and Peter, the “traitor” apostles), the three spreading styles (symbolizing the three nails used to crucify Christ), the five stamens (symbolizing the five wounds of the crucified Christ), and the 72 spikes of the corona (reminding one of the thorns on the crown of thorns). Giacomo Bosio, an Italian ecclesiastic and historian, actually interpreted that the unopened, bell-shaped flowers The basic morphology of the blossom of Purple passionflower,Passiflora incarnata. Styles Stamens Petals (Tepals) Coronal filaments held these sacred symbols from the view of heathens who had not yet been converted to Christianity. He also saw the lobed leaves and long green tendrils depicting the hands and whips of Christ’s prosecutors (or variously their spears and whips). In the insect world, the passionflower family is well known for being larval food plants of many exotic butterflies, especially tropical heliconians. Although we do not see them in Michigan, Passiflora incarnatais the main food plant of the beautiful Gulf fritillary, Agraulis vanillae, and is common throughout the gulf-coast United States. In traditional and alternative medicine, it has been used as a herbal medicine to treat nervous anxiety and insomnia. In Europe, the dried, ground herb is frequently drunk by adding a teaspoon of it to tea. There are many reports of people cultivating this plant in areas that seem way outside their formal ranges. If this plant calls to you, it can be acquired through nurseries and various internet sellers..

  • Native Plants for Your Backyard
    U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Native Plants for Your Backyard Native plants of the Southeastern United States are more diverse in number and kind than in most other countries, prized for their beauty worldwide. Our native plants are an integral part of a healthy ecosystem, providing the energy that sustains our forests and wildlife, including important pollinators and migratory birds. By “growing native” you can help support native wildlife. This helps sustain the natural connections that have developed between plants and animals over thousands of years. Consider turning your lawn into a native garden. You’ll help the local environment and often use less water and spend less time and money maintaining your yard if the plants are properly planted. The plants listed are appealing to many species of wildlife and will look attractive in your yard. To maximize your success with these plants, match the right plants with the right site conditions (soil, pH, sun, and moisture).

  • Passiflora Tarminiana, a New Cultivated Species of Passiflora Subgenus
    Novon 11(1): 8–15. 2001 Passiflora tarminiana, a new cultivated species of Passiflora subgenus Tacsonia. Geo Coppens d'Eeckenbrugge1, Victoria E. Barney1, Peter Møller Jørgensen2, John M. MacDougal2 1CIRAD-FLHOR/IPGRI Project for Neotropical Fruits, c/o CIAT, A.A. 6713, Cali Colombia 2Missouri Botanical Garden, P.O. Box 299, St Louis, Missouri 63166-0299, U.S.A. Abstract The new species Passiflora tarminiana differs from its closes relative by the character combination of very small acicular stipules and large almost reflexed petals and sepals. This species has escaped detection despite being widely cultivated. Naturalized populations, particularly on Hawa'ii, have created problems for conservation of the native flora. In Colombia it is more frequently adopted in industrial cultivation because of its rusticity and resistance to fungal diseases. Introduction Passifloras of the subgenus Tacsonia are cultivated by many small farmers, from Venezuela to Bolivia. Some species are cultivated in New Zealand. The main cultivated species is Passiflora mollissima (Kunth) Bailey (Escobar, 1980 & 1988), also called P. Coppens et al. 2000 Passiflora tarminiana 2 tripartita var. mollissima (Kunth) Holm-Nielsen & P. Jørgensen (Holm-Nielsen et al., 1988). It is called "curuba de Castilla" in Colombia, "tacso de Castilla" in Ecuador, and “banana passionfruit” in English-speaking countries.. The second species of importance in the Andes is "curuba india," "curuba ecuatoriana," or "curuba quiteña" in Colombia, called "tacso amarillo" in Ecuador (Pérez Arbeláez, 1978; A.A.A., 1992; Campos, 1992). It is most frequently found in private gardens, but some commercial growers have, because of its rusticity, started to grow it instead of the "curuba de Castilla." We describe this overlooked cultigen as a new species under the name Passiflora tarminiana, in recognition of Tarmín Campos, a Colombian agronomist who contributed with enthusiasm to the development of banana passion fruit cultivation and introduced the first author to the cultivated passifloras of the central Colombian highlands.

  • Exploring the Role of Auxin in the Androgynophore Movement in Passiflora
    Genetics and Molecular Biology, 38, 3, 301-307 (2015) Copyright © 2015, Sociedade Brasileira de Genética. Printed in Brazil DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1415-475738320140377 Research Article Exploring the role of auxin in the androgynophore movement in Passiflora Livia C.T. Scorza and Marcelo Carnier Dornelas Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Instituto de Biologia, Departamento de Biologia Vegetal, Campinas, SP, Brazil. Abstract The flowers of the species belonging to the genus Passiflora show a range of features that are thought to have arisen as adaptations to different pollinators. Some Passiflora species belonging to the subgenus Decaloba sect. Xerogona, show touch-sensitive motile androgynophores. We tested the role of auxin polar transport in the modula- tion of the androgynophore movement by applying auxin (IAA) or an inhibitor of auxin polar transport (NPA) in the flowers. We recorded the movement of the androgynophore during mechano-stimulation and analyzed the duration, speed, and the angle formed by the androgynophore before and after the movement, and found that both IAA and NPA increase the amplitude of the movement in P. sanguinolenta. We hypothesize that auxin might have a role in modulating the fitness of these Decaloba species to different pollination syndromes and demonstrate that an interspecific hybrid between insect- and hummingbird-pollinated Xerogona species present a heterosis effect on the speed of the androgynophore movement. Keywords: Passiflora, androgynophore, IAA, NPA, thigmotropism. Received: December 18, 2014; Accepted: April 15, 2015. Introduction Recently, we showed that in some Passiflora species, The genus Passiflora comprises about 500 species the androgynophore can also be a thigmotropic structure, which are mostly woody vines that present a huge diversity i.e., it has the capability to move in response to touch and in flower shape, colors and sizes.

In the 16th century, Spanish Chrihristian missionaries stumbled upon the Passionn FFlower and adopted it as a symbol of the death of Christ due to its unique morphological charaaracteristics. Spanish colonists associated the flowersrs with the suffering of Christ: the corona referfers to the crown of thorns, the three stigmas to the nailsna at the cross, … in other words: the commonon name refers to the passion of Christ. Thus, the Englnglish prefix "passion" derives from the passionn oof Christ suggested by the prominent four-branchedd sstyle that appears in the flowers.
