Fall 2013 NARGS
Rock Garden uar terly � Fall 2013 NARGS to ADVERtISE IN thE QuARtERly CoNtACt [email protected] Let me know what yo think A recent issue of a chapter newsletter had an item entitled “News from NARGS”. There were comments on various issues related to the new NARGS website, not all complimentary, and then it turned to the Quarterly online and raised some points about which I would be very pleased to have your views. “The good news is that all the Quarterlies are online and can easily be dowloaded. The older issues are easy to read except for some rather pale type but this may be the result of scanning. There is amazing information in these older issues. The last three years of the Quarterly are also online but you must be a member to read them. These last issues are on Allen Press’s BrightCopy and I find them harder to read than a pdf file. Also the last issue of the Quarterly has 60 extra pages only available online. Personally I find this objectionable as I prefer all my content in a printed bulletin.” This raises two points: Readability of BrightCopy issues versus PDF issues Do you find the BrightCopy issues as good as the PDF issues? Inclusion of extra material in online editions only. Do you object to having extra material in the online edition which can not be included in the printed edition? Please take a moment to email me with your views Malcolm McGregor <[email protected]> CONTRIBUTORS All illustrations are by the authors of articles unless otherwise stated. -

Egypt ABSTRACT Growth and flower production of gardenia plant (Gardenia jasminoides, Ellis.) were studied to find out the appropriate growing media amended with sulphur. Rice straw, sawdust and clay used as growing substrates, were amended with four (0, 1/2, 1 and 2% w/w) levels of sulphur. The experiment was laid out in split-plot design using substrates as main plot and sulphur amendment in sub-plot with 4 replications. The experiment was carried out in successive two growing season in 2004/2005 and 2005/2006. The findings revealed that both growing media and sulphur amendment alone and in combination significantly affected vegetative and reproductive growth of gardenia plant. Rice straw was the best media followed clay and sawdust. Out of four 1 doses of sulphur amendment, /2% S application showed best result which was identically followed by 1% sulphur in most of the cases. However, considering the interaction effect, rice straw amended with 1% sulphur proved to be the best combination in producing tallest plant(34.69 cm), maximum number of leaves(70), widest stem (4.4 mm), maximum fresh shoot-root weight (37.46 g) and maximum dry shoot-root weight (12.83 g). -

GARDENIA for Me, Nothing Evokes Summer More Than the Fragrance of a Gardenia
Nancy Merwin January 30, 2020 GARDENIA For me, nothing evokes summer more than the fragrance of a gardenia. My love affair with this beautiful, fragrant, classic flower began sixty years ago in my Mother’s well-tended Bay Area garden. She grew several varieties and placed bowls of floating gardenias throughout the house in summer. My favorite variety was ‘Mystery’ as it is the largest, most fragrant gardenia. As I grew older, trips to San Francisco’s Union Square often included a stop at the corner florist stand where a gardenia corsage was purchased and proudly worn. For my birthday my Father always gave me one gardenia for each year, on my 30th birthday he gave me a gardenia plant having decided it was time for me to learn to grow my own. Thus began my endeavor to grow the gardenia. History G. Jasminoides, commonly known as Gardenia is part of the Rubiaceae Family. An evergreen flowering plant known for its shiny dark green leaves, displaying white or yellowish, single or double flower with a strong fragrance. It is most commonly found in tropical and subtropical areas such as the Pacific Islands, Southern China, and Japan. In the US it grows outdoors in Zones 7-9, 12- 16 and 18-23. In other zones, it can successfully be grown in containers or a greenhouse (H1, H2). The gardenia is native of China, (where it was thought to have been around for a thousand years), Taiwan and Japan. One theory is that it was brought to England in the 1750s and may have been named after jasmine due to its fragrance. -

Received: 2 July 2012; in revised form: 1 August 2012 / Accepted: 7 August 2012 / Published: 13 August 2012 Abstract: Daphniphyllum calycinum (DC), a main component of Chinese patent drug Fengliao-Changweikang, is effectively used to cure bowel disease in the clinic. It was recorded that DC possessed slight toxicity, which was caused by the alkaloids existing in its extract. Unfortunately, to date the toxicity level and toxic constituents are still unclear. The present study is designed to illustrate the acute toxicity and induced organ damages of the total alkaloids as well as to determine the toxic constituents. Based on the above studies, not only was the acute toxicity determined but also hepatic toxicity was characterized by increased plasma biomarkers of ALT and AST and liver cell inflammatory infiltrate as well necrosis that was firstly observed. Significantly, deoxycalyciphylline B exhibited exactly the same hepatic toxicity so it was identified as the main toxic constituent in DC. -

The Status of Mariculture in North China
The Status of Mariculture in North China Chang Yaqing1,Chen Jiaxin2 (1.Key Lab of Mariculture and Biotechnology.Dalian Fisheries University,Dalian, Liaoning, 116023, P.R China;2.Yellow Sea Fisheries Research Institute Chinese Academy of Fisheries Sciences, Qingdao, Shandong,266071, P.R China) Introduction China has a long history of mariculture production. The mariculture industry in China has obtained break through in the all artificial nursery and cultural technique of shrimps, mollusca and fishes of high commercial value since 1950s, which has advanced the development of mariculture industry. The first major development was seaweed culture during 1950s, prompted by breakthroughs in breeding technology. By the end of the 1970s, annual seaweed production reached 250,000 metric tons in dry weight ( approximately 1.5million tons of fresh seaweed ). Shrimp culture developed during the 1980s because of advances in hatchery technology and economic reform policies. Annual shrimp production reached 210,000 tons in 1992. Disease outbreaks since 1993, however, have reduced shrimp production by about two-thirds. Mariculture production increased steadily between 1954 and 1985, but has been exponential since 1986, mostly driven by molluscan culture. Molluscan 1 culture in China began to expand beyond the four traditional species: oyster,cockle,razor clam and ruditapes clam in the 1970s,Mussel culture was the first new industry to emerge ,followed by scallop aquaculture in 1980s. Abalone culture has become a major industry in 1990s. Traditional oyster and clam cultures have also advanced and expanded in recent years.Now more than 30 species of marine mollusks are cultured commercially in China. Because of the rapid development in recent years, molluscan culture has become the largest sector of the Chinese mariculture industry, accounting for 81% of the total production in weight. -
