University Systematics of the Relhaniinae (Asteraceae- Gnaphalieae) in southern Africa: geography and evolution in an endemic Cape plant lineage. Nicola Georgina Bergh Town Thesis presented for theCape Degree of DOCTOR OF ofPHILOSOPHY in the Department of Botany UNIVERSITY OF CAPE TOWN University May 2009 Town Cape of University ii ABSTRACT The Greater Cape Floristic Region (GCFR) houses a flora unique for its diversity and high endemicity. A large amount of the diversity is housed in just a few lineages, presumed to have radiated in the region. For many of these lineages there is no robust phylogenetic hypothesis of relationships, and few Cape plants have been examined for the spatial distribution of their population genetic variation. Such studies are especially relevant for the Cape where high rates of species diversification and the ongoing maintenance of species proliferation is hypothesised. Subtribe Relhaniinae of the daisy tribe Gnaphalieae is one such little-studied lineage. The taxonomic circumscription of this subtribe, the biogeography of its early diversification and its relationships to other members of the Gnaphalieae are elucidated by means of a dated phylogenetic hypothesis. Molecular DNA sequence data from both chloroplast and nuclear genomes are used to reconstruct evolutionary history using parsimony and Bayesian tools for phylogeny estimation.

As in so many dicot families, however, related woody genera occur in tropical and subtropical regions. Botanists who have not encountered woody Inuleae may be surprised to learn that wood of Brachylaena merana has been used for carpentry and for railroad ties in Madagascar (Lecomte, 1922), that of Tarchonanthtts camphorattts for musical instruments in Africa (Hoffmann, 1889-1894) and that the wood of Brachylaena (Synchodendrttm) ramiflomm is described as "resistant to rot, hard and dense, known to be of great durability" (Lecomte, 1922). In Argentina, the relatively soft wood of T essaria integrifolia is used "in paper making and also in the construction of ranchos" (Cabrera, 1939). All of these species are trees. Tessaria and Brachylaena also contain shrubs as well. Most other species included in this study could be considered shrubs (Plttchea, Cassinia) or woody herbs. The geographical distribution of Inuleae roughly reflects the relative woodiness of genera and species, because there is a tendency for the more woody species to occur in tropical regions, shrubby species in subtropical areas, and herbs in temperate or montane situations.

Avda. Joan XXIII s/n, 08028 Barcelona, Spain Abstract. The precise generic delimitation of Aliella and Phagnalon, and their closest relatives within the Gnaphalieae are discussed in this review. Among the main results obtained, we have found that the genera Aliella and Phagnalon are nested within the “Relhania clade” and Anisothrix, Athrixia and Pentatrichia are their closest relatives. Macowania is also part of the “Relhania clade”, whereas the subtribal affinities of Philyrophyllum lie within the “crown radiation clade”. The monophyly of Aliella and Phagnalon is not supported statistically. In addition, Aliella appears to be paraphylethic in most of the analyses performed. The resulting phylogeny suggests an African origin for the ancestor of Aliella and Phagnalon and identifies three main clades within Phagnalon that constitute the following natural groups on a geographic basis: (1) the Irano-Turanian clade; (2) the Mediterranean-Macaronesian clade; and (3) the Yemen-Ethiopian Correspondence/Reprint request: Dr.

The finding of these fungi in both normal and galled flowers was taken as an indication that they do not have a definite relationship with the midges. Moreover, identification based on DNA sequencing showed that these isolates are taxonomically heterogeneous and belong to several species which are classified in two different species complexes.

  • The Potential of South African Indigenous Plants for the International Cut flower Trade ⁎ E.Y
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com South African Journal of Botany 77 (2011) 934–946 www.elsevier.com/locate/sajb The potential of South African indigenous plants for the international cut flower trade ⁎ E.Y. Reinten a, J.H. Coetzee b, B.-E. van Wyk c, a Department of Agronomy, Stellenbosch University, Private Bag, Matieland 7606, South Africa b P.O. Box 2086, Dennesig 7601, South Africa c Department of Botany and Plant Biotechnology, University of Johannesburg, P.O. Box 524, Auckland Park 2006, South Africa Abstract A broad review is presented of recent developments in the commercialization of southern Africa indigenous flora for the cut flower trade, in- cluding potted flowers and foliages (“greens”). The botany, horticultural traits and potential for commercialization of several indigenous plants have been reported in several publications. The contribution of species indigenous and/or endemic to southern Africa in the development of cut flower crop plants is widely acknowledged. These include what is known in the trade as gladiolus, freesia, gerbera, ornithogalum, clivia, agapan- thus, strelitzia, plumbago and protea. Despite the wealth of South African flower bulb species, relatively few have become commercially important in the international bulb industry. Trade figures on the international markets also reflect the importance of a few species of southern African origin. The development of new research tools are contributing to the commercialization of South African plants, although propagation, cultivation and post-harvest handling need to be improved.

Some pick flowers for markets to sell, some remove invasive about 20,000 in total. The Red List of South African Plants (http://redlist. alien plants, and others are involved in conservation and nature tourism. It sanbi.org/redcat.php) tells us which of these species are under threat. is important that people who work in the veld know about fynbos plants.

Jensen ex Reveal, 1996 Classe: Rosopsida Batsch, 1788 Sottoclasse: Asteridae Takht., 1967 Superordine: Asteranae Takht., 1967 Ordine: Asterales Lindl., 1833 Famiglia: Asteraceae Dumort., 1822 Le Asteraceae Dumortier, 1822, molto conosciute anche come Compositae , sono una vasta famiglia di piante dicotiledoni dell’ordine Asterales . Rappresenta la famiglia di spermatofite con il più elevato numero di specie. Le asteracee sono piante di solito erbacee con infiorescenza che è normalmente un capolino composto di singoli fiori che possono essere tutti tubulosi (es. Conyza ) oppure tutti forniti di una linguetta detta ligula (es. Taraxacum ) o, infine, essere tubulosi al centro e ligulati alla periferia (es. margherita). La famiglia è diffusa in tutto il mondo, ad eccezione dell’Antartide, ed è particolarmente rappresentate nelle regioni aride tropicali e subtropicali ( Artemisia ), nelle regioni mediterranee, nel Messico, nella regione del Capo in Sud-Africa e concorre alla formazione di foreste e praterie dell’Africa, del sud-America e dell’Australia. Le Asteraceae sono una delle famiglie più grandi delle Angiosperme e comprendono piante alimentari, produttrici
