Sinningia Speciosa Sinningia Speciosa (Buell "Gloxinia") Hybrid (1952 Cover Image from the GLOXINIAN)

He loved it so much that he started a group, complete with a small journal, that he called the American Gloxinia Society. The Society lived on, thrived, acquired more members, studied the Gloxinia and its relatives, gesneriads. After a while, the name of the society changed to the American Gloxinia and Gesneriad Society. The journal, THE GLOXINIAN, grew thicker and glossier. More study and research were conducted on the family, more members and chapters came in, and the name was changed again – this time to The Gesneriad Society. Nowadays, a boy who falls in love with the same plant would have to call it Sinningia speciosa. To be honest, the American Sinningia Speciosa Society does not have the same ring. So in order to talk "Gloxinia," the boy would have to talk about Gloxinia perennis, still a gesneriad, but a totally different plant. Unless, of course, he went for the common name of the spec- tacular Sinningia and decided to found The American Florist Gloxinia Society. -

Genetic Diversity of Selected Apocynaceae Species Based on Chloroplast Gene Rps11
Journal of Medicinal Plants Research Vol. 5(17), pp. 4382-4387, 9 September, 2011 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/JMPR ISSN 1996-0875 ©2011 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper Genetic diversity of selected Apocynaceae species based on chloroplast gene rps11 Tariq Mahmood1*, Faiza Meer1, Faiza Munir2, Nazia Nazar1 and Ishrat Naveed2 1Department of Plant Sciences, Faculty of Biological Sciences, Quaid-i-Azam University, Islamabad-46320, Pakistan. 2Department of Biotechnology, Faculty of Biological Sciences, Quaid-i-Azam University, Islamabad-46320, Pakistan. Accepted 22 July, 2011 Apocynaceae is an important family due to its credible therapeutic importance and it is widely distributed in tropics and subtropics. Some species of Apocynaceae have been randomly chosen from different regions of Pakistan for the present study. The main objective was to analyze genetic diversity among seven species using cleaved amplified polymorphic sequences (CAPS) technique on a plastid gene encoding ribosomal protein of smaller subunit 11 (rps11). For this purpose, DNA was extracted from young leaves and with the help of a pair of primer, rps11 gene was amplified and seven restriction enzymes namely: TscAI, ScrfI, DpnI, BsiKHAI, MseI, HinfI, BseGI were used to digest the amplified rps11 gene. The results produced were in the form of bands on gels revealing the length of fragments produced after cutting with restriction enzymes. The digested fragments were found to produce monomorphic bands whereas some polymorphic bands were also observed. On the basis of restricted fragments, phylogenetic tree was prepared depicting different number of clusters with varied level of similarity coefficients. It was observed that the species have shown mixed pattern and closely related species appeared at higher genetic distances. -

PC20 Doc. 16.3 Annex 2 ASSESSMENT OF TRADE IN EPIPHYTIC CACTI AND REVIEW OF LISTING OF CACTACEAE SPP. IN APPENDIX II 1. This document has been prepared by Mr James Grogan under contract with the CITES Secretariat.1 2. Background information can be found in two key CITES documents: CoP15 Doc. 55, submitted by the Management Authority of Switzerland, describes the issue under consideration in this report, whether certain genera of epiphytic cacti (seven as listed below) should be excluded from Appendix II based on the preponderance of artificially propagated compared to wild- collected specimens in international trade; IUCN Red List conservation status is reviewed, and trade data for gross exports of wild-collected specimens from range nations during 1975–2008 are presented; PC19 Doc. 14.1, prepared by the Chair of the Working Group on the Periodic Review with assistance from the Scientific Authority of Mexico, presents further analysis of trade data during 1998–2008 including the number of specimens of epiphytic cacti in trade that were artificially propagated, number of records and specimens that were wild collected, confiscated or seized, or of unknown origin during this period, and geographic ranges of species in question. Natural range, morphology & taxonomy of the epiphytic cacti 3. The Cactaceae are a New World family except for one species, the epiphytic Rhipsalis baccifera, which is also found in Africa, Madagascar and as far east as Sri Lanka. Seven genera are considered here: Disocactus, Epiphyllum, Hatiora, Lepismium, PseudoRhipsalis, Rhipsalis, and Schlumbergera. 4. These genera are grouped in two tribes of the subfamily Cactoideae within the Cactaceae family: Hylocereeae: Disocactus, Epiphyllum, PseudoRhipsalis Rhipsalideae: Hatiora, Lepismium, Rhipsalis, Schlumbergera 5. -

ON THE DRY SIDE OCTOBER 2018 CENTRAL COAST CACTUS & SUCCULENT SOCIETY OCTOBER SPEAKER OF THE MONTH: GENE SCHROEDER Ferocactus: The Fantastic Barrel Cacti of the Southwest & Mexico During General Kearney’s 1846 Mexican-American War expedition to Santa Fe and the later conquest of California, Lt. Emory, an officer in his force, collected and sketched several large cacti. In 1849, now Major Emory, became director of the Mexican-American Boundary Survey tasked with making a compre- hensive survey of the natural history of this newly acquired region. Large collections of cacti were made and sent to Dr. George Engelmann who later published several papers including the 1859 “Cactaceae of the Boundary.” All were amazed by the giant barrel cacti of the new territories. They were as striking and unusual then as now. For his work, Engelmann drew from botanists and explorers of these expeditions and surveys as well as professional colleagues of that era. Their names are commemorated in current species names within the genera Ferocactus erected by Britton & Rose as part of their classic 1922 work “The Cactaceae.” Big, up to 4 feet or more in height, protected by fierce thorns, topped with large flowers and edible fruit they earned the awe and respect of all who saw them. Native usage as emergency water sources and cattle food earned them the nickname, ‘traveler’s friend.’ Ranging across approximately 30 species, they now can be found in most botanic gardens and a growing number of xeric landscapes where their size and presence make them landmark plants that are tough, long lived and generally easy to grow.
