    THE REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY OF PROBOSCIDEA LOUISIANICA (MARTYNIACEAE) by MARY ANN PHILLIPPI,, Bachelor of Science in Biological Science Auburn University Auburn, Alabama 1974 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE May' 1977 The.;s 1s /'177 P557r ~.;;.. THE REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY OF PROBOSCIDEA LOUISIANICA (MARTYNIACEAE) Thesis Approved: Dean of Graduate College ii PREFACE The reproductive biology of Proboscidea louisianica is investigated with special emphasis on the insect-plant interrelationship. This study included only one flowering season in only a small part of the plant's range. In order to more accurately elucidate the insect-plant interrelationship much more work is needed throughout Proboscidea louisianica's range. I wish to thank Dr. Ronald J. Tyrl, my thesis adviser, for his time and effort throughout my project. Appreciation is also extended to Dr. William A. Drew and Dr. James K. McPherson for advice and criticism throughout the course of this study and during the prepara­ tion of this manuscript. To Dr. Charles D. Michener, at the University of Kansas; Dr. H. E. Milliron, in New Martinsville, West Virginia; and Dr. T. B. Mitchell, at North Carolina State University I extend my appreciation for their time and expertise in identifying the insects collected during this study. Special thanks are given to Jim Petranka and to my family, Dr. and Mrs. G. M.

[email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT Eclipta prostrata is a small herb distributed in tropical regions of the world. It is commonly known as false daisy. The plant is used in Ayurvedic medicine for skin infections and some non-communicable diseases. Aqueous extraction of plant material such as leaf and whole plant were investigated for anti-microbial activity without changing concentration. Results of study revealed that all extracts had inhibitory activity against E.coli with the clear zone of 1.3cm, which is similar to streptomycin control. Antifungal activity of leaf and whole plant extract of Eclipta prostrata against Aspergillus and Rhizopus showed the inhibitory growth ranged from 23.5 % to 33.30% whereas the leaf extract showed high inhibition than whole plant extract. The findings exhibit that leaf and whole plant aqueous extracts have narrow spectrum activity and there is a possibility in treatment of infectious diseases.

(Martyniaceae) is reported as a new alien species for the flora of Turkey. A plant species with different and interesting fruits was photographed in 2016. During a field investigation, a population of P. louisianica consisting of ca. 25 individuals was found at roadside between Biga and Karabiga town, district of Çanakkale, and plant specimens with flowers were collected in 2017. After detailed literature studies, this species was identified as Proboscidea louisianica. The family Martyniaceae is represented by just 1 genus with 1 taxa (Ibicella lutea (Lindl.) Van Eselt.) in Turkey and no member of the genus Proboscidea has been recorded before. In this paper, the species was introduced with taxonomical and morphological features. Its ecological impact was also evaluated with potential risks. Keywords: Proboscidea, Martyniaceae, new record, flora, Turkey Özet Bu çalışmada Proboscidea louisianica (Miller) Thell.

Abstract: This study analyzed the flora, life form, and vegetation of the Nakdong River wetland. Vegetation analysis was performed on 37 plots using the phytosociological method of the Zürich- Montpellier School. PCA analysis was conducted by using the vegetation data (ground cover of class; 1~9) of 37 plots surveyed by phytosociological method. PCA (Principal Component Analysis) was used to statistically analyze the objectivity of the community classification and the character species. The traditional classification and mathematical statistic methods were used. A total of 82 taxa belonging to 28 families, 65 genera, 72 species, 2 subspecies, and 8 varieties were present in the vegetation of the survey area. The life form was analyzed to be the Th-R5-D4-e type.
