  • Bryoflora of the Great Cypress Swamp Conservation Area, Sussex County, Delaware and Worcester County, Maryland
    The Maryland Naturalist 43 (3-4):9-17 . July/December 1999 The Bryoflora of the Great Cypress Swamp Conservation Area, Sussex County, Delaware and Worcester County, Maryland William A. McAvoy Introduction In 1998 the Delaware Natural Heritage Program (DNHP), with funding from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, completed a biological/ecological survey of the Great Cypress Swamp Conservation Area (GCSCA). The GCSCA is located in the central portion of the Delmarva Peninsula (a land area composed of the coastal plain counties of Delaware and the eastern shore counties of Maryland and Virginia) and lies on the border of Sussex County, Delaware and Worcester County, Maryland (Figure 1). Though the survey included a variety of inventories (avian, amphibian and reptile, natural community, and rare vascular plants), it is the data collected on bryophytes (mosses and liverworts) that are reported here. The study ofbryophytes on the Delmarva Peninsula has attracted very little interest over the years, and a search of the literature revealed only four pertinent papers. Owens (1949), while studying at the University of Maryland, submitted a graduate thesis titled A Preliminary List of Maryland Mosses and their Distribution. This annotated list, containing county distribution data and briefhabitat notes, included 198 taxa of mosses for the state of Maryland, with 65 taxa attributed to the eastern shore counties of Delmarva. Owens's list was based solely on pre-I 949 collections at US and MARY (Herbaria acronyms follow Holmgren et al. 1990). Confirmations and determinations were made by the author, as well as by numerous other authorities in the field ofbryology (Owens 1949).

  • Molecular Phylogeny of Chinese Thuidiaceae with Emphasis on Thuidium and Pelekium
    Molecular Phylogeny of Chinese Thuidiaceae with emphasis on Thuidium and Pelekium QI-YING, CAI1, 2, BI-CAI, GUAN2, GANG, GE2, YAN-MING, FANG 1 1 College of Biology and the Environment, Nanjing Forestry University, Nanjing 210037, China. 2 College of Life Science, Nanchang University, 330031 Nanchang, China. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract We present molecular phylogenetic investigation of Thuidiaceae, especially on Thudium and Pelekium. Three chloroplast sequences (trnL-F, rps4, and atpB-rbcL) and one nuclear sequence (ITS) were analyzed. Data partitions were analyzed separately and in combination by employing MP (maximum parsimony) and Bayesian methods. The influence of data conflict in combined analyses was further explored by two methods: the incongruence length difference (ILD) test and the partition addition bootstrap alteration approach (PABA). Based on the results, ITS 1& 2 had crucial effect in phylogenetic reconstruction in this study, and more chloroplast sequences should be combinated into the analyses since their stability for reconstructing within genus of pleurocarpous mosses. We supported that Helodiaceae including Actinothuidium, Bryochenea, and Helodium still attributed to Thuidiaceae, and the monophyletic Thuidiaceae s. lat. should also include several genera (or species) from Leskeaceae such as Haplocladium and Leskea. In the Thuidiaceae, Thuidium and Pelekium were resolved as two monophyletic groups separately. The results from molecular phylogeny were supported by the crucial morphological characters in Thuidiaceae s. lat., Thuidium and Pelekium. Key words: Thuidiaceae, Thuidium, Pelekium, molecular phylogeny, cpDNA, ITS, PABA approach Introduction Pleurocarpous mosses consist of around 5000 species that are defined by the presence of lateral perichaetia along the gametophyte stems. Monophyletic pleurocarpous mosses were resolved as three orders: Ptychomniales, Hypnales, and Hookeriales (Shaw et al.

Moss samples were collected from Kastamonu - TURKEY and eight different extraction solvents were used in the study. All the extracts were investigated for in vitro antimicrobial activity against Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633, Yersinia enterocolitica O3, Salmonella enteretidis ATCC 13076, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Escherichia coli ATCC 11230, Candida albicans ATCC 95071, Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 7644 by using the disc diffusion method. The results were supported with the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) and the minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC) tests. Six reference antibiotics were used as positive controls to compare the results. As a result, the extracts present activity against Yersinia enterocolitica O3, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 and Candida albicans ATCC 95071.
