Jerald Ainsworth Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences Dean of the Graduate School A VASCULAR FLORA OF BENDABOUT FARM, BRADLEY COUNTY, TENNESSEE AND SURVEY OF NATIVE CASTANEA DENTATA (MARSH) BORKH. (FAGACEAE, AMERICAN CHESTNUT) By Amelia Paige Harris A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Environmental Science The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Chattanooga, Tennessee August 2013 ii ABSTRACT The primary goal of this study was to inventory the flora of Bendabout Farm, a 1,467 ha privately-owned farm in Bradley County, Tennessee. A second goal was to conduct a census of the population and distribution of surviving Castanea dentata (Marsh) Borkh. (American chestnut) within the study area. Both natural/semi-natural and altered habitats were described during initial habitat characterization. The study recorded 433 species from 261 genera in 106 families. The study documented 250 new records for Bradley County. Special Concern Species, Panax quinquefolius L., was vouchered, as were 68 non-native species. C. dentata were located using the sweep census method in the dry oak forest. In total, 330 ha were surveyed and 181 sprouts were documented. Maps displaying location data were generated in ArcGIS 10 to assist property managers in making best land management decisions in regard to protecting C. dentata sprouts on the farm. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to extend my genuine gratitude to my major advisor, Dr. Hill Craddock, for his boundless enthusiasm and for being a constant source of encouragement, motivation, and intellectual stimulation throughout my graduate career. I would like to thank my Co-Advisor, Dr. Joey Shaw, for inviting me into his lab and enriching my graduate experience by encouraging me to share my work with the botanical community, as well as Dr. Thomas Wilson for imparting his vast knowledge of GIS and surveying methodology. I would like to offer a most sincere thanks to Summerfield K. Johnston, Jr. for the extending the opportunity to explore and conduct my research at Bendabout Farm. Matt Bentley was critical in obtaining access, providing knowledge about the farm’s history, and making sure I wasn’t burnt to a crisp or shot while out botanizing. I would like to extend my thanks to him and to all the Bendabout Farm staff. I greatly appreciate Dollywood’s commitment to American chestnut restoration and whole-heartedly thank this organization for providing the funding for my research assistantship at UTC. The Tennessee Chapter of the American Chestnut Foundation welcomed me with open arms and provided inspiration and support throughout the duration of this project. I would like to thank Andy Carroll for providing spatial data, help with printing maps, and for being an excellent GIS guru. The UTC Graduate School was instrumental in providing the funding that allowed me to attend multiple conferences throughout the Southeast where I shared my research with colleagues and leaders in my field. iv Team Chestnut consisted of a dedicated core of individuals, without whom the chestnut census would not have been possible. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to David North, Jim Pfitzer, and William White for their tireless dedication and camaraderie. Many others volunteered their time and keen eyesight to this project including, Ana Metaxas, Carl Absher, Kristen Stanfill, Elijah Reyes, Paola Zannini, Emilio Craddock, Adam Lyon, KJ Minchew, Nicolas Perego, Jessica Jones, and Chris Livera. I have a deep appreciation for my colleagues and labmates at UTC, whose friendship has been valuable and enriching. Lastly, I would like to thank my family for their endless support throughout my journey. v TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ........................................................................................................... iv LIST OF TABLES ....................................................................................................................... viii LIST OF FIGURES ....................................................................................................................... ix LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS ........................................................................................................ xi LIST OF SYMBOLS ................................................................................................................... xiii CHAPTER I.

  • Floristic Quality Assessment Report
    FLORISTIC QUALITY ASSESSMENT IN INDIANA: THE CONCEPT, USE, AND DEVELOPMENT OF COEFFICIENTS OF CONSERVATISM Tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) the State tree of Indiana June 2004 Final Report for ARN A305-4-53 EPA Wetland Program Development Grant CD975586-01 Prepared by: Paul E. Rothrock, Ph.D. Taylor University Upland, IN 46989-1001 Introduction Since the early nineteenth century the Indiana landscape has undergone a massive transformation (Jackson 1997). In the pre-settlement period, Indiana was an almost unbroken blanket of forests, prairies, and wetlands. Much of the land was cleared, plowed, or drained for lumber, the raising of crops, and a range of urban and industrial activities. Indiana’s native biota is now restricted to relatively small and often isolated tracts across the State. This fragmentation and reduction of the State’s biological diversity has challenged Hoosiers to look carefully at how to monitor further changes within our remnant natural communities and how to effectively conserve and even restore many of these valuable places within our State. To meet this monitoring, conservation, and restoration challenge, one needs to develop a variety of appropriate analytical tools. Ideally these techniques should be simple to learn and apply, give consistent results between different observers, and be repeatable. Floristic Assessment, which includes metrics such as the Floristic Quality Index (FQI) and Mean C values, has gained wide acceptance among environmental scientists and decision-makers, land stewards, and restoration ecologists in Indiana’s neighboring states and regions: Illinois (Taft et al. 1997), Michigan (Herman et al. 1996), Missouri (Ladd 1996), and Wisconsin (Bernthal 2003) as well as northern Ohio (Andreas 1993) and southern Ontario (Oldham et al.

  • Kimberly Norton Taylor1 and Dwayne Estes
    The floristic and community ecology of seasonally wet limestone glade seeps of Tennessee and Kentucky Kimberly Norton Taylor1 and Dwayne Estes Austin Peay State University Department of Biology and Center of Excellence for Field Biology Clarksville, Tennessee 37044, U.S.A. [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT An open, seasonally wet seep community supporting herbaceous vegetation occurs within the limestone cedar glade complex of the southeastern United States. The purpose of this study is to describe the floristic composition of these limestone glade seeps. A floristic inventory of 9 season- ally wet sites in central Tennessee and south-central Kentucky was performed, documenting 114 species and infraspecific taxa in 91 genera and 43 families. Vegetation analysis identified the dominant taxa as Eleocharis bifida (% IV 20.3), Sporobolus vaginiflorus (% IV 11.94), Hypericum sphaerocarpum (% IV 5.97), Allium aff. stellatum (% IV 4.71), Clinopodium glabellum/arkansanum (% IV 4.15), Schoenolirion croceum (% IV 3.89), Juncus filipendulus (% IV 3.89), and Carex crawei (% IV 3.84). Gratiola quartermaniae and Isoëtes butleri are also important members of the community and may serve as indicator species. A wetland assessment of the seep community was performed according to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual and appropriate regional supplements. Wetland vegetation requirements are satisfied in 8 of the 9 seasonally wet sites sampled. The limestone glade seeps appear to represent a previously unclassified seasonal wetland type. RESUMEN Una comunidad abierta, húmeda estacionalmente por filtración, compuesta por vegetación herbácea se da en el complejo de pantanos cal- cáreos de cedro del sureste de los Estados Unidos.

  • Rubiaceae): Evolution of Major Clades, Development of Leaf-Like Whorls, and Biogeography
    TAXON 59 (3) • June 2010: 755–771 Soza & Olmstead • Molecular systematics of Rubieae Molecular systematics of tribe Rubieae (Rubiaceae): Evolution of major clades, development of leaf-like whorls, and biogeography Valerie L. Soza & Richard G. Olmstead Department of Biology, University of Washington, Box 355325, Seattle, Washington 98195-5325, U.S.A. Author for correspondence: Valerie L. Soza, [email protected] Abstract Rubieae are centered in temperate regions and characterized by whorls of leaf-like structures on their stems. Previous studies that primarily included Old World taxa identified seven major clades with no resolution between and within clades. In this study, a molecular phylogeny of the tribe, based on three chloroplast regions (rpoB-trnC, trnC-psbM, trnL-trnF-ndhJ) from 126 Old and New World taxa, is estimated using parsimony and Bayesian analyses. Seven major clades are strongly supported within the tribe, confirming previous studies. Relationships within and between these seven major clades are also strongly supported. In addition, the position of Callipeltis, a previously unsampled genus, is identified. The resulting phylogeny is used to examine geographic distribution patterns and evolution of leaf-like whorls in the tribe. An Old World origin of the tribe is inferred from parsimony and likelihood ancestral state reconstructions. At least eight subsequent dispersal events into North America occurred from Old World ancestors. From one of these dispersal events, a radiation into North America, followed by subsequent diversification in South America, occurred. Parsimony and likelihood ancestral state reconstructions infer the ancestral whorl morphology of the tribe as composed of six organs. Whorls composed of four organs are derived from whorls with six or more organs.
