Caryophyllaceae Pink Family Caryophyllaceae pink family A wide-ranging family, there are nearly 2000 herbaceous annuals or perennials included within. They are Page | 418 typified by the opposite or whorled leaves and swollen leaf nodes. Generally the flowers are perfect and often the corolla has five petals which may be cleft. The calyx has five sepals; there are 10 stamens. Fruit is a dry capsule. Numerous ornamentals are derived from the family; many have been planted in Nova Scotia.

  • Appendix 1. Results for the Species Not in Database
    Supporting information for: Pärtel, J., Pärtel, M. & Wäldchen, J. 2021. Plant image identification application demonstrates high accuracy in Northern Europe. AoB PLANTS. Appendix 1. Results for the species not in database Taxa not known to the machine learning model, i.e. those on which the classifier was not trained, could not be recognized. The model is unable to determine whether an image belongs to an unknown taxon it has never seen before and will wrongly identify a known taxon with the highest degree of similarity. Typically, the highest degree of similarity is still so low that no suggestions will be given for the user. Here we extracted the best match information directly from the Flora Incognita server but did not use these species in our analyses since the model’s prediction can only be interpreted in a meaningful way for taxa on which it was actually trained. The five unknown species were only found in the database study. Some of them were garden plants, or had a northern or eastern distribution. (1) Draba incana has an arcotmontane distribution which reach its SW border in Estonia, the most similar species in the Flora Incognita database was Arabis hirsuta. (2) Lychnis chalcedonica originates from continental Eurasia but is used as an ornamental garden plant. In Estonia it sometimes spreads to nature. Flora Incognita is focusing on European natural plants, even if many naturalized ones are included. The most similar species found was Phlox paniculata. (3) Moehringia lateriflora is distributed in Eurasia, reaching in its E border in Estonia. The most similar match was Cardamine californica.

  • 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. Basal Angiosperms (ANITA grade) Amborellales Amborellaceae, sole family, the earliest branch of flowering plants, a shrub native to New Caledonia – Amborella Nymphaeales Hydatellaceae – aquatics from Australasia, previously classified as a grass Cabombaceae (water shield – Brasenia, fanwort – Cabomba) Nymphaeaceae (water lilies – Nymphaea; pond lilies – Nuphar) Austrobaileyales Schisandraceae (wild sarsaparilla, star vine – Schisandra; Japanese

For more information, please contact [email protected]. LOCAL ADAPTATION FOR LIFE-HISTORY TRAITS IN SILENE LATIFOLIA by BRANDY M. PENNA (Under the Direction of Lorne M. Wolfe) ABSTRACT A fundamental question in evolutionary ecology is how species adjust post colonization. The plant Silene latifolia was introduced to North America (NA) from Europe (EU) in the 1800s. The goal of this thesis was to test if Silene latifolia has become locally adapted across its range. My first experiment tested local adaptation of germination success to three temperatures across three latitudinal regions in a growth chamber using seeds from nine EU and NA populations. Germination success or speed was similar among latitudinal regions across continents. My second experiment examined local adaptation at a continental scale; I grew plants from 15 EU and NA populations in four common gardens across continents. Growth and survival for the first year revealed that plants grew larger in their respective continents.

This challenge is most serious in tribe Caryophylleae since the supposed genera seem to be highly artificial, and the available morphological evidence cannot effectively be used for delimitation and exact determination of taxa. The main goal of the present study was to re-assess the monophyly of the genera currently recognized in this tribe using molecular phylogenetic data. We used the sequences of nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and the chloroplast gene rps16 for 135 and 94 accessions, respectively, representing all 16 genera currently recognized in the tribe Caryophylleae, with a rich sampling of Gypsophila as one of the most heterogeneous groups in the tribe.

The flowers are excellent for cutting. Its attractive narrow leaves remain dark green in color throughout the year. The fruit is not ornamentally significant. Landscape Attributes Flashing Light Maiden Pinks is an herbaceous evergreen perennial with a mounded form. It brings an extremely fine and delicate texture to the garden composition and should be used to full effect. This plant will require occasional maintenance and upkeep, and is best cleaned up in early spring before it resumes active growth for the season. It is a good choice for attracting bees and butterflies to your yard, but is not particularly attractive to deer who tend to leave it alone in favor of tastier treats. Gardeners should be aware of the following characteristic(s) that may warrant special consideration; - Self-Seeding Flashing Light Maiden Pinks is recommended for the following landscape applications; - Mass Planting - Rock/Alpine Gardens - Border Edging - General Garden Use - Container Planting 5150 Garrison St.
