    Proceeding ICMA-SURE – 2020 The 3rd International Conference On Multidisciplinary Approaches For Sustainable Rural Development Distinguishing two morphologically similar species of Asteraceae using a chloroplast DNA marker A H Susanto*1 and M Dwiati1 1 Faculty of Biology, Universitas Jenderal Soedirman, Purwokerto, Indonesia * Email: [email protected] Abstract. Synedrella nodiflora (L.) Gaertn and Calyptocarpus vialis Less are members of Asteraceae family that morphologically show high similarities. To genetically distinguish between them, a particular molecular marker should be employed. This study aims to present molecular comparison between both species using a chloroplast DNA marker, i.e. atpB – rbcL IGS. A pair of PCR universal primers was used to amplify the marker. Sequence alignment on the PCR products reveals longer S. nodiflora sequence in comparison to that of C. vialis. In addition, some transversions and transitions are also observed. This suggests that the two species exhibit considerable genetic difference despite their similar phenotypic appearance. 1. Introduction Many members of Asteraceae family are recognized for their potentials as ornamental, medicinal, and economic plants[1]. On the other hand, some others are known as invasive weeds[2], resulting in significant loss on several crops with respect to productivity[3]. Some species of Asteraceae family show very high phenotypical similarities causing difficulty in differentiating them from each other. For example, Calyptocarpus vialis Less has ever been identified as Synedrella vialis (Less.) A. Gray due to its high resemblance to Synedrella nodiflora[4]. Nevertheless, S. vialis is now changed into C. vialis [5] and this is the scientifically accepted name for the species, while S.

NHESP is responsible for the conservation and protection of hundreds of species that are not hunted, fished, trapped, or commercially harvested in the state. The Program's highest priority is protecting the 176 species of vertebrate and invertebrate animals and 259 species of native plants that are officially listed as Endangered, Threatened or of Special Concern in Massachusetts. Endangered species conservation in Massachusetts depends on you! A major source of funding for the protection of rare and endangered species comes from voluntary donations on state income tax forms.

These are used by more than 80% of the world population, for this reason these are overexploited because they are a source of main drug (taxol, morphine, vincristine, vinblastine, artemisinin, galegin, etc.), and also have high nutritional, timber, cosmetic, and/or agricultural value. At present, China exports 120,000 tons of MP, India about 32,000 tons while Europe imports 400,000 tons; this overexploitation has caused many of these plants to be in danger of extinction. Also, MP are raw material for the development of phytodrugs such as Ginseng, Hyperikan, EchinaceA, Kava-kava, Vitango, Plantival, Prostasan Brickellia paniculata is widely used in Mexico in traditional medicine, and has been poorly investigated from the chemical and biological point of view; so in this among others, whose therapeutic efficacy and safety has been scientifically assayed.

    Invasive Alien Plants An Ecological Appraisal for the Indian Subcontinent EDITED BY I.R. BHATT, J.S. SINGH, S.P. SINGH, R.S. TRIPATHI AND R.K. KOHL! 019eas Invasive Alien Plants An Ecological Appraisal for the Indian Subcontinent FSC ...wesc.org MIX Paper from responsible sources `FSC C013604 CABI INVASIVE SPECIES SERIES Invasive species are plants, animals or microorganisms not native to an ecosystem, whose introduction has threatened biodiversity, food security, health or economic development. Many ecosystems are affected by invasive species and they pose one of the biggest threats to biodiversity worldwide. Globalization through increased trade, transport, travel and tour- ism will inevitably increase the intentional or accidental introduction of organisms to new environments, and it is widely predicted that climate change will further increase the threat posed by invasive species. To help control and mitigate the effects of invasive species, scien- tists need access to information that not only provides an overview of and background to the field, but also keeps them up to date with the latest research findings. This series addresses all topics relating to invasive species, including biosecurity surveil- lance, mapping and modelling, economics of invasive species and species interactions in plant invasions. Aimed at researchers, upper-level students and policy makers, titles in the series provide international coverage of topics related to invasive species, including both a synthesis of facts and discussions of future research perspectives and possible solutions.

    Vol. 18, No. 2 /npss.sk www.npss.sk.ca @NPSS_SK Summer 2013 Rare plants on display By CHET NEUFELD NPSS Executive Director The NPSS has once again been busy with field tours. While the weather didn’t always cooperate, we managed to have some good times and find a lot of interesting and rare plants. Here’s a break- down of the tours for 2013. Peggy McKercher Conservation Area Tour - May 25 The summer tour schedule started out with a tour to the Peggy McKercher Conservation Area on the outskirts of Saskatoon. This is an area in transition; it has recently been acquired by the Meewasin Valley Author- ity but had been a Catholic Church retreat for a number of years. As such, there was a mix of introduced and native plants, and signs of human use which will be remediated as the site is brought back to a more natural state.

The inventory and taxonomic study of the tribe Justicieae (Acanthaceae) of Bahia State's Semiarid region are presented. For the execution of this inventory, collections of Bahia herbaria and major herbaria of the Southeast and South of Brazil, and random collections (georeferenced) were conducted covering 25 municipalities of the Semiarid region of the Bahia State. Twenty-seven species and ten genera were recognized, namely: Justicia L. (17 species), Harpochilus Nees (2), Anisacanthus (A. trilobus Lindau), Clistax Mart. (C. speciosus Nees), Dicliptera Juss. (D. mucronifolia Nees), Herpetacanthus Nees (H. magnobracteolatus Idriunas & Kameyama), Poikilacanthus Lindau (P. bahiensis (Nees) Wassh.), Pseuderanthemum Radlk. (P. modestum (Nees) Radlk.), Schaueria Nees (S. humuliflora Nees), and Thyrsacanthus Moric. (T. ramosissimus Moric.). A new combination is proposed, Justicia chamaedryoides (Nees) Wassh. ex A.L.A. Côrtes & P.L.R. Moraes. Many of the species included in the treatment have not been described since the Flora Brasiliensis, published in the 19th century, and some are new reports to the Bahia State. Six species of Justicia, including four new species recently described besides Harpochilus neesianus and Anisacanthus trilobus, are endemic to the Semiarid. Key for identification and descriptions of taxa, illustrations and comments on the taxonomy and geographic distribution of species, including maps of occurrence in the State, are provided. Key words: Caatinga, Floristics, Justicia, Taxonomy RESUMO - (Justicieae (Acanthaceae) do Semiárido do Estado da Bahia, Brasil).
