Senecioneae also encompasses a number of other genera. Many species of Senecio, as well as species of certain other senecionean genera, are woody, despite the abundance of herbaceous Senecioneae in the North Temperate Zone. Among woody species of Senecioneae, a wide variety of growth forms is represented. Most notable are the peculiar rosette trees of alpine Africa, the subgenus Dendrosenecio of Senecio. These are represented in the present study of S. aberdaricus (dubiously separable from S. battescombei according to Hedberg, 195 7), S. adnivalis, S. cottonii, and S. johnstonii. The Dendra senecios have been discussed with respect to taxonomy and distribution by Hauman ( 1935) and Hedberg ( 195 7). Cotton ( 1944) has considered the relationship between ecology and growth form of the Dendrosenecios, and anatomical data have been furnished by Hare ( 1940) and Hauman ( 19 3 5), but these authors furnish little information on wood anatomy. -

1 Metabolitos Secundarios Con Actividad Antifúngica En La Tribu
Metabolitos secundarios con actividad antifúngica en la tribu Senecioneae (Asteraceae) García Contreras, María Paula1 [email protected] 1.Pontificia Universidad Javeriana. Facultad de Ciencias. Unidad de Investigaciones Agropecurias (UNIDIA). Grupo de investigación en fitoquímica (GIFUJ) RESUMEN Los hongos patógenos de plantas representan grandes pérdidas para el sector floricultor y su tratamiento se ha visto limitado debido a la toxicidad de los fungicidas y al desarrollo de mecanismos de resistencia por parte de los patógenos. Los metabolitos secundarios de las plantas se han estudiado como una potencial alternativa para su tratamiento debido a su efectividad como sustancias antimicrobianas, particularmente dentro de la familia Asteraceae, la tribu Senecioneae se ha mostrado como un grupo potencial para la búsqueda de metabolitos secundarios con actividad biológica. Por lo tanto, el propósito de esta revisión es recopilar los estudios disponibles de actividad antifúngica para la tribu Senecioneae con el fin de identificar potenciales compuestos para la investigación en fungicidas naturales aplicables a fitopatógenos de cultivos de flores. Palabras clave: Asteraceae, Senecioneae, metabolitos secundarios, fitoquímica, aceites esenciales, monoterpenos, sesquiterpenos, alcaloides pirrolizidínicos, actividad antifúngica, fitopatógenos. INTRODUCCIÓN Las plantas son susceptibles a una gran variedad de agentes bióticos que pueden afectar su crecimiento, desarrollo y reproducción. Dentro de estos, los hongos patógenos tienen la capacidad de infectar tejidos como la raíz y el tallo, dificultando el transporte de agua y nutrientes, o las hojas, impidiendo procesos de intercambio gaseoso y fotosíntesis (Struck 2006). Debido a que estos patógenos pueden atacar plantas de interés económico como los cultivos de flores y generar grandes pérdidas (Cámara de Comercio de Bogotá 2015), los productores acuden a estrategias rápidas y sencillas para su tratamiento como la aplicación y rotación de fungicidas sobre los cultivos (Lesmes-Fabian & Binder 2013). -

Although their toxicity has been known for a long time, PA containing plants are still in use in many traditional medicines. Traditional healing systems have become of increasing interest as many people believe that they can be used without any risk and side effects. This also applies to the traditional medicine of Madagascar and the Mascarene island (Mauritius, Réunion, Rodriguez). Recent literature reports have recommended this traditional medicine because of its good efficacy and pharmacological properties. However, several plants are listed there which have already been described to contain toxic PAs or are suspected of containing them. 1. Introduction play a growing role in the treatment of diseases in the form of self-medication. Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs)are naturally occurring compounds In addition, increased tourism has made it possible that people which are contained in about 3% of all flowering plants (Bull come into contact with different traditional healing systems all et al. -

L’ensemble de la flore vasculaire, dite flore « supérieure », a été analysée et passée au crible des critères de la Liste rouge, soit 905 espèces indigènes de fougères et de plantes à fleurs de La Réunion. Réalisé par le Comité français de l’UICN, le Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle, la Fédération des conservatoires botaniques nationaux et le Conservatoire botanique national de Mascarin, cet état des lieux montre que 49 espèces végétales (5,4%) ont déjà disparu de l’île et que 275 autres (30,4%) sont aujourd’hui menacées. La destruction et la dégradation des habitats naturels représentent la principale cause de régression des espèces végétales réunionnaises. Le développement urbain et agricole est responsable de la disparition progressive de nombreuses espèces, comme le Bois de lait (Tabernaemontana persicariifolia), arbuste de la zone littorale classé “En danger critique d’extinction”. -

Milton A thesis submitted to the University of St Andrews for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Biology University of St Andrews May 2009 ii ABSTRACT Molecular phylogenetic analyses of subtribe Senecioninae, based on combining sequenced ITS and trnL-F fragments from specimens collected in the field with sequences collected from GenBank, suggest the subtribe is monophyletic, as is Senecio s.str. (including Robinsonia), and suggest an expanded monophyletic section Senecio. Many Senecio species should be removed from the genus, as they are only distantly related to it, emphasising the para- or polyphyletic nature of Senecio as it is currently circumscribed. Area optimisation suggests southern Africa as a possible geographical origin for the genus and section. Harvey’s (1865) sectional classification of South African Senecio species (the only attempt to date to impose infrageneric groupings on these taxa), was tested for monophyly which, however, was not seen in the sections tested. A number of southern African species from Harvey’s sections are suggested for inclusion in an expanded section Senecio. -

Problems concern rank (subgenus vs. genus); type designation; cor- rect place of valid publication; alternative names; and other miscellaneous issues. An annotated list with correct nomenclatural information for 391 generic names or designations is provided, including types (newly designated here for 17 names) and one new combination (Gyptis tanacetifolia). The current taxonomic disposition of Cassini’s genera and the accepted names for the listed typonyms are consistently mentioned. The familiar names Felicia and Chrysopsis, already conserved, are threatened by unlisted earlier synonyms, and currently used Fulcaldea turns out to be illegitimate. Proposals to deal with these problems by conservation are being presented separately.
