We found 46 of the 358 described cycad species had at least one element reported to date. The only genus that was missing from the data was Microcycas. Many of the species reports contained concentrations of one to several macronutrients and no other elements. The cycad leaves contained greater nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations than the reported means for plants throughout the world. Magnesium was identified as the macronutrient that has been least studied.

  • Low-Maintenance Landscape Plants for South Florida1
    Archival copy: for current recommendations see http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu or your local extension office. ENH854 Low-Maintenance Landscape Plants for South Florida1 Jody Haynes, John McLaughlin, Laura Vasquez, Adrian Hunsberger2 Introduction The term "low-maintenance" refers to a plant that does not require frequent maintenance—such as This publication was developed in response to regular watering, pruning, or spraying—to remain requests from participants in the Florida Yards & healthy and to maintain an acceptable aesthetic Neighborhoods (FYN) program in Miami-Dade quality. A low-maintenance plant has low fertilizer County for a list of recommended landscape plants requirements and few pest and disease problems. In suitable for south Florida. The resulting list includes addition, low-maintenance plants suitable for south over 350 low-maintenance plants. The following Florida must also be adapted to—or at least information is included for each species: common tolerate—our poor, alkaline, sand- or limestone-based name, scientific name, maximum size, growth rate soils. (vines only), light preference, salt tolerance, and other useful characteristics. An additional criterion for the plants on this list was that they are not listed as being invasive by the Criteria Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council (FLEPPC, 2001), or restricted by any federal, state, or local laws This section will describe the criteria by which (Burks, 2000). Miami-Dade County does have plants were selected. It is important to note, first, that restrictions for planting certain species within 500 even the most drought-tolerant plants require feet of native habitats they are known to invade watering during the establishment period.

  • (OUV) of the Wet Tropics of Queensland World Heritage Area
    Handout 2 Natural Heritage Criteria and the Attributes of Outstanding Universal Value (OUV) of the Wet Tropics of Queensland World Heritage Area The notes that follow were derived by deconstructing the original 1988 nomination document to identify the specific themes and attributes which have been recognised as contributing to the Outstanding Universal Value of the Wet Tropics. The notes also provide brief statements of justification for the specific examples provided in the nomination documentation. Steve Goosem, December 2012 Natural Heritage Criteria: (1) Outstanding examples representing the major stages in the earth’s evolutionary history Values: refers to the surviving taxa that are representative of eight ‘stages’ in the evolutionary history of the earth. Relict species and lineages are the elements of this World Heritage value. Attribute of OUV (a) The Age of the Pteridophytes Significance One of the most significant evolutionary events on this planet was the adaptation in the Palaeozoic Era of plants to life on the land. The earliest known (plant) forms were from the Silurian Period more than 400 million years ago. These were spore-producing plants which reached their greatest development 100 million years later during the Carboniferous Period. This stage of the earth’s evolutionary history, involving the proliferation of club mosses (lycopods) and ferns is commonly described as the Age of the Pteridophytes. The range of primitive relict genera representative of the major and most ancient evolutionary groups of pteridophytes occurring in the Wet Tropics is equalled only in the more extensive New Guinea rainforests that were once continuous with those of the listed area.

  • Comparison of Chromosome Number and Karyotype of Two Lepidozamia Species
    筑波実験植物園研報 18 : 65-69, 1999. Ann. Ann. Tsukuba Bot . Gard. Comparison of Chromosome Number and Karyotype of of Two Lepidozamia Species (Zamiaceae, Cycadales) Goro KOKUBUGATA *'Katsuhiko KONDO** and Lou M. RANDALL*** 國府方吾郎*・近藤勝彦**. Lou M. Randall …:Lepidozamia 属(ザミア科,ソテッ目) 2 種における染色体数及び核型の比較研究 Lepidozamia Lepidozamia (Zamiaceae, Cycadales; Stevenson 1992) is endemic to Australia, and consists of L. hopei hopei Regel and L. peroffskyana Regel. Two species of Lepidozamia are enable to be recognized with the the width of leaflet; i. e. the former has wider leaflet than the latter (Jones 1993). The chromosome number and karyotype of L. hopei and L. peroffskyana was previously reported by Marchant (1968) and Moretti (1990) . In certain cycad-taxa, however, there are some mistakes of their their karyotype identification for the previous reports, and it is necessary to reinvestigate their of the chromosomal characters (Kokubugata et al. 1999). The aim of the present study is investigation of the chromosome number and karyotype of L. hopei and L. peroffskyana by the standard aceto-orcein staining staining method for the cytotaxonomical accumulations of Lepidozamia. Materials Materials and Methods The taxonomical treatment follows Jones (1993). The plants investigated in the present study were collected in the each habit and exported under a CITES permit before cultivation in the green- house house of the Tsukuba Botanical Garden (Table 1). Root tips were harvested and pretreated in 4 mM 8-hydroxyquinoline at 4℃ for 10 hour. They were fixed in acetic ethanol (3:1) at 4℃ for 24 hour, and were transferred and stored in 70 % ethanol at at -20 ℃ Fixed Fixed Root tips were macerated in a mixture of IN HCI and 45 % acetic acid (2:1) at 60 ℃ for 10 10 sec., put on glass slides, and then stained in 2 % aceto-orcein at room temperature for 4 hour.

This proposed Lot has an area of 1.394 hectares and consists of the Flame Tree Road Reserve and part of a USL, which is a small portion of the bed of Cooper Creek. It is proposed that the Flame Tree Road Reserve and part of the USL be transferred to enable the creation of a Cultural, Environmental and Recreation Reserve to be managed in Trust by the Douglas Shire Council. The proposed Cultural, Environmental and Recreation Reserve will have an area of 1.394 hectares and will if the plan is registered become Lot 1 of SP144713; Parish of Alexandra; County of Solander.

  • Zamiaceae, Cycadales) and Evolution in Cycadales
    The complete chloroplast genome of Microcycas calocoma (Miq.) A. DC. (Zamiaceae, Cycadales) and evolution in Cycadales Aimee Caye G. Chang1,2,3, Qiang Lai1, Tao Chen2, Tieyao Tu1, Yunhua Wang2, Esperanza Maribel G. Agoo4, Jun Duan1 and Nan Li2 1 South China Botanical Garden, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Guangzhou, China 2 Shenzhen Fairy Lake Botanical Garden, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Shenzhen, China 3 University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China 4 Department of Biology, De La Salle University, Manila, Philippines ABSTRACT Cycadales is an extant group of seed plants occurring in subtropical and tropical regions comprising putatively three families and 10 genera. At least one complete plastid genome sequence has been reported for all of the 10 genera except Microcycas, making it an ideal plant group to conduct comprehensive plastome comparisons at the genus level. This article reports for the first time the plastid genome of Microcycas calocoma. The plastid genome has a length of 165,688 bp with 134 annotated genes including 86 protein-coding genes, 47 non-coding RNA genes (39 tRNA and eight rRNA) and one pseudogene. Using global sequence variation analysis, the results showed that all cycad genomes share highly similar genomic profiles indicating significant slow evolution and little variation. However, identity matrices coinciding with the inverted repeat regions showed fewer similarities indicating that higher polymorphic events occur at those sites. Conserved non-coding regions also appear to be more divergent whereas variations in the exons were less discernible indicating that the latter comprises more conserved sequences. Submitted 5 September 2019 Phylogenetic analysis using 81 concatenated protein-coding genes of chloroplast (cp) Accepted 27 November 2019 genomes, obtained using maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference with high Published 13 January 2020 support values (>70% ML and = 1.0 BPP), confirms that Microcycas is closest to Corresponding authors Zamia and forms a monophyletic clade with Ceratozamia and Stangeria.
