  • Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
    Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page.

  • Boraginales) Based on Trnl and ITS1 Sequence Data7
    6 Systematic analysis of Heliotropiaceae based on trnL and ITS1 sequences 6 A systematic analysis of Heliotropiaceae (Boraginales) 7 based on trnL and ITS1 sequence data Summary The infrafamilial relationships of Heliotropiaceae (Boraginaceae subfam. Heliotropioideae according to classical systems) are reevaluated using molecular data of nuclear ITS1 (86 species) and plastidal trnLUAA intron (66 species) sequences. The results obtained from our investigations show that traditional generic limits warrant adjustment. Heliotropiaceae fall into two large clades. The first clade includes, in basal position, the genus Ixorhea. The genus Myriopus (formerly Tournefortia sect. Cyphocyema) is sister to Euploca (formerly Hilgeria, Schleidenia, Heliotropium sect. Orthostachys). The remaining sections of Heliotropium, Tournefortia sect. Tournefortia and the three small genera Argusia, Ceballosia, and Nogalia, segregated from Heliotropium, constitute the second large clade. Argusia, Ceballosia, and Nogalia cluster within clades of Heliotropium and therefore are reincluded into this genus. Within Heliotropium the species of former Tournefortia sect. Tournefortia represent a lineage of tropical New World Heliotropium species, growing in humid environments, whereas all other Heliotropium species are found in semi-arid habitats. Before new combinations in the genus Heliotropium are made for “Tournefortia”, the exact relationship within New World Heliotropium needs to be resolved, and a revision of “Tournefortia” is inevitable. We advocate maintain the genus Tournefortia, which is easily to define and we conclude that under this definition the genus Heliotropium is paraphyletic. Five genera are thus accepted; 22 new combinations within Heliotropiaceae are presented. 7 Manuscript submitted as HILGER H.H. & DIANE N.

Michener INTRODUCTION Hydrophyllaceae is a characteristically herbaceous family; only Eriodic­ tyon Benth., Wigandia H.B.K., and the monotypic Turricula Macbr. can be considered woody (stems attaining a diameter of more than 1 em). Are plants such as these relicts from a woody ancestry, or is the family secondarily woody? The nature of wood anatomy offers some features useful in the attempt to answer this question. Wood anatomy is also applicable to analysis of the curious growth form of Eriodictyon. Unlike most shrubs, Eriodictyon is characterized by a well­ developed root system from which aerial innovations of various height and duration arise. Such a growth form is ideal for resisting drought and fire in the chaparral and chaparrallike areas where Eriodictyon grows. The majority of Eriodictyon plants (using that term to denote an aerial stem) in any given locality may ultimately result from root innovations rather than events of seed germination. Indeed, attempts to grow Eriodictyon from seed have been unsuccessful (Everett 1957).

  • Kou Moth, Ethmia Colonella Walsm., in Hawaii
    133 The Kou Moth, Ethmia colonella Walsm., in Hawaii BY O. H. SW£ZE)Y Experiment Station, H.S.P.A., Honolulu (Presented at the meeting of February 8, 1943) This moth is attached to the "kou" tree, Cordia subcordata Lamarck. It was described in the family Oecophoridae by Walsing- ham in the Fauna Hawaiiensis, 1(5): 507, 1907, from 19 speci mens collected by Perkins in 1896 in Honolulu. Walsingham con sidered it the same species as the two moths collected by Blackburn prior to 1882, which were determined incorrectly by Butler as Asinis hilarella Walker (Ent. Mo. Mag., 19: 180, 1883). Butler quotes Blackburn as saying: "I have twice taken this insect, though at long intervals, each time it was apparently attracted by light, but seemed very sluggish, and apparently satisfied to sit and look at the light from a distance". The Perkins specimens mentioned above, were from an unrecorded cultivated plant in Honolulu, and the statement was made that it was probably an introduced species. Since 1906, it has been known that Cordia subcordata was its host plant, there being specimens in the H.S.P.A. collection reared from this plant by Terry, August and December, 1906, in Hono lulu. In Proc. Haw. Ent. Soc, 6(3) : 373, 1927, Swezey records finding a Cordia subcordata tree infested with Ethmia caterpillars at Kahului, Maui, October 16, 1926.

  • Mountain Plants of Northeastern Utah
    MOUNTAIN PLANTS OF NORTHEASTERN UTAH Original booklet and drawings by Berniece A. Andersen and Arthur H. Holmgren Revised May 1996 HG 506 FOREWORD In the original printing, the purpose of this manual was to serve as a guide for students, amateur botanists and anyone interested in the wildflowers of a rather limited geographic area. The intent was to depict and describe over 400 common, conspicuous or beautiful species. In this revision we have tried to maintain the intent and integrity of the original. Scientific names have been updated in accordance with changes in taxonomic thought since the time of the first printing. Some changes have been incorporated in order to make the manual more user-friendly for the beginner. The species are now organized primarily by floral color. We hope that these changes serve to enhance the enjoyment and usefulness of this long-popular manual. We would also like to thank Larry A. Rupp, Extension Horticulture Specialist, for critical review of the draft and for the cover photo. Linda Allen, Assistant Curator, Intermountain Herbarium Donna H.

Rosso and Sabine Zachgo* Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research, 50829 Cologne, Germany *Author for correspondence (e-mail: [email protected]) Accepted 25 January 2005 Development 132, 1555-1565 Published by The Company of Biologists 2005 doi:10.1242/dev.01725 Summary We isolated three alleles of an Arabidopsis thaliana gene and ectopic AG expression in roxy1-3 ap1-10 double named ROXY1, which initiates a reduced number of petal mutants, as well as by enhanced first whorl carpeloidy in primordia and exhibits abnormalities during further petal double mutants of roxy1 with repressors of AG, such as ap2 development. The defects are restricted to the second whorl or lug. Glutaredoxins are oxidoreductases that oxidize or of the flower and independent of organ identity. ROXY1 reduce conserved cysteine-containing motifs. Mutagenesis belongs to a subgroup of glutaredoxins that are specific of conserved cysteines within the ROXY1 protein for higher plants and we present data on the first demonstrates the importance of cysteine 49 for its function. characterization of a mutant from this large Arabidopsis Our data demonstrate that, unexpectedly, a plant gene family for which information is scarce. ROXY1 is glutaredoxin is involved in flower development, probably predominantly expressed in tissues that give rise to new by mediating post-translational modifications of target flower primordia, including petal precursor cells and petal proteins required for normal petal organ initiation and primordia. Occasionally, filamentous organs with stigmatic morphogenesis.
