Previous phy- Universal nuclear probe set logenetic studies have shown that these lineages branched deep in time and in quick succession, seen as short-deep internodes. Short-shallow internodes are also characteristic of some Aristolochia lineages such as Aristolochia subsection Pentandrae, a clade of presumably recent diversification. This subsection is here included to test the performance of AHE at species level. Filtering and subsampling loci using the phylo- genetic informativeness method resolves several recalcitrant phylogenetic relationships within Aristolochia. By assuming different ploidy levels during bioinformatics processing of raw data, first hints are obtained that polyploidization contributed to the evolution of Aristolochia. Phylogenetic results are discussed in the light of current systematics and morphology. Ó 2017 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Inc.

  • Expression of Gynoecium Patterning Transcription Factors in Aristolochia
    Peréz‑Mesa et al. EvoDevo (2020) 11:4 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13227‑020‑00149‑8 EvoDevo RESEARCH Open Access Expression of gynoecium patterning transcription factors in Aristolochia fmbriata (Aristolochiaceae) and their contribution to gynostemium development Pablo Peréz‑Mesa1, Clara Inés Ortíz‑Ramírez2, Favio González3, Cristina Ferrándiz2 and Natalia Pabón‑Mora1* Abstract Background: In Aristolochia (Aristolochiaceae) fowers, the congenital fusion of the anthers and the commissural, stigmatic lobes forms a gynostemium. Although the molecular bases associated to the apical–basal gynoecium pat‑ terning have been described in eudicots, comparative expression studies of the style and stigma regulatory genes have never been performed in early divergent angiosperms possessing a gynostemium. Results: In this study, we assess the expression of fve genes typically involved in gynoecium development in Aris- tolochia fmbriata. We found that all fve genes (AfmCRC , AfmSPT, AfmNGA, AfmHEC1 and AfmHEC3) are expressed in the ovary, the placenta, the ovules and the transmitting tract. In addition, only AfmHEC3, AfmNGA and AfmSPT are temporarily expressed during the initiation of the stigma, while none of the genes studied is maintained during the elaboration of the stigmatic surfaces in the gynostemium. Conclusions: Expression patterns suggest that CRC , HEC, NGA and SPT homologs establish ovary and style identity in Aristolochia fmbriata. Only NGA,HEC3 and SPT genes may play a role in the early diferentiation of the stigmatic lobes, but none of the genes studied seems to control late stigma diferentiation in the gynostemium. The data gathered so far raises the possibility that such transient expression early on provides sufcient signal for late stigma diferentia‑ tion or that unidentifed late identity genes are controlling stigma development in the gynostemium.

The lack of knowledge concerning Verhuellia is largely due to its restricted distribution, poorly known collection localities, limited availability in herbaria and absence in botanical gardens and lack of material suitable for molecular phylogenetic studies until recently. Because Verhuellia has some of the most reduced flowers in Piperales, the reconstruction of floral evolution which shows strong trends towards reduction in all lineages needs to be revised. † Methods Verhuellia is included in a molecular phylogenetic analysis of Piperales (trnT-trnL-trnF and trnK/matK), based on nearly 6000 aligned characters and more than 1400 potentially parsimony-informative sites which were partly generated for the present study. Character states for stamen and carpel number are mapped on the combined molecular tree to reconstruct the ancestral states.

    International Journal of Contemporary Applied Researches Vol. 7, No. 8, August 2020 (ISSN: 2308-1365) www.ijcar.net Nephrotoxic Herbal Medicines used in Sri Lanka P.C.K. Ranathungamage*, P. Hemachandra, P. Hewagamage, D. N. Ethugala Agricultural Officer, Lanka Sugar Company Limited-Sevanagala, Sri Lanka Corresponding Author: Kuma Ranathungamage [email protected] Abstract Chronic Kidney Disease due to the unknown etiology (CKDu) has become a developing issue in North, North-central, Uva, and North-western provinces in Sri Lanka. The increased number of patients with CKDu is becoming a burden on the health sector as treatments, dialysis, and organ transplant are costly procedures. There are many myths to describe CKDu; however, the real causative factor is remaining unknown. Some researchers believe that Neprotoxic herbal medicines containing Aristolochic Acid could be a factor for Nephrotoxicity incidences. Therefore, this study's primary objectives were to examine which species of Aristolochia plants exist in Sri Lanka, to list the species if any ingredients are of Aristalochia in traditional herbal remedies used in Sri Lanka and study the prescription pattern of medications containing Aristalochia. The data was collected by literature survey, field and ethnobotanical surveys, and focus group discussions. Results showed that few Ayurvedic practitioners use leaf, root, fruit, or plant parts of Aristolochia indica as a part of their remedies to treat more than twenty diseases and poison bites occasions. Also, nearly 66 prescriptions containing Aristolochia indica as an ingredient were found in the literature used by a few Ayurvedic practitioners in CKDu prevalence areas. Therefore, the research team concluded that nephrotoxic herbal medicines could be a reason for the current CKDu situations in Lanka.

Durante un recorrido de campo en San Juan Teponaxtla, Oaxaca, fueron observados tres individuos con flores y frutos de Aristolochia tricaudata Lemaire, una muy rara especie amenazada con la extinción. Aunque esta especie está presente en muchos jardines botánicos, los frutos nunca habían sido observados. Debido a lo restringido de su distribución, esta especie requiere de acciones de conservación urgentes para su protección en la naturaleza. Palabras clave: Aristolochia tricaudata, México, Oaxaca, Chiapas, críticamente amenazada. The family Aristolochiaceae is a member of The systematic knowledge of Aristolochia in Mexico the magnoliid order Piperales, which also includes is more or less restricted to 2 revisions based on herbarium Hydnoraceae, Lactoridaceae, Piperaceae, and Saururaceae specimens of hexandrous and pentandrous species, (e.g.

Observations from model and non-model plants are brought together in a phylogenetic framework to derive hypotheses about how plant development evolved to generate the abundant diversity we see today. Testing those hypotheses requires a plant model system with the appropriate phylogenetic perspective: that of a basal lineage. The greatest diversity of plants today is among the angiosperms (flowering plants), a lineage which arose only about 160 million years ago. The most successful of these are the monocot and core eudicot flowering plant lineages, from which current plant model experimental systems are derived. For questions about the evolution of angiosperm development, a plant model from among the basal lineages is required. In addition to phylogenetic perspective, model systems possess features and degrees of availability, representation, and utility not found in other members of the taxa to which they belong.
