Budawangia* an E-Newsletter for All Those Interested in the Native Plants of the Nsw South Coast
BUDAWANGIA* AN E-NEWSLETTER FOR ALL THOSE INTERESTED IN THE NATIVE PLANTS OF THE NSW SOUTH COAST Contact: Dr Kevin Mills – [email protected] No. 28 - July 2014 Aims: To connect those interested in the native flora of the NSW South Coast, to share up to date information on the flora of the region and to broaden the appreciation of the region’s native plants. Editorial July, the middle of winter, is perhaps not the most inviting time to get out into the bush, windy and cold weather discouraging excursions too far from home. There is however much to see in the bush at this time of year. Many rainforest plants have fruit, the foggy highlands provide good opportunities for early morning photographs, while the winter-flowering Banksias are putting on a show on the foreshores and in the woodlands. This edition contains an article on mistletoes, those plants that parasitise other plants. These shrubs play an important role in the ecology of forests and woodlands and recent research has identified them as critical to the well being of many animal species. The purpose of „plant of the month‟ is to discuss some of the more uncommon species in our region. This month we have Acacia hispidula, an uncommon wattle of the sandstone country. As usual, another mystery weed is presented, along with an article about two noxious weeds in the genus Xanthium and another article in the series on wetland plants. I am glad readers are finding the newsletter enjoyable and informative; comments such as the following encourage me to keep it going: Les from Kangaroo Valley - “Thanks for a very interesting issue.” Diane from Nowra - “Thanks Kevin. -

In this study, we add key taxa to a previously generated dataset to produce a more inclu- sive phylogenetic analysis of the genus. -

(Viscaceae) are keystone species in Mistletoes many ecosystems across Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia because of their complex faunal interactions. We here Parasitic plants reconstructed the evolutionary history of Viscum based on plastid and nuclear DNA sequence data. We obtained a Host range evolution highly resolved phylogenetic tree with ten well-supported clades, which we used to understand the spatio- Geographic range expansion temporal evolution of these aerial parasites and evaluate the contribution of reproductive switches and shifts in Reproductive switches host ranges to their distribution and diversification. The genus Viscum originated in the early Eocene in Africa Viscum and appeared to have diversified mainly through geographic isolation, in several cases apparently coinciding with shifts in host preferences. During its evolution, switches in the reproductive mode from ancestral dioecy to monoecy imply an important role in the long-distance dispersal of the parasites from Africa to continental Asia and Australia. -
