  • Peculiarities of Reproduction of the Species Stranvaesia Davidiana Decne in the Republic of Moldova
    84 JOURNAL OF BOTANY VOL. X, NR. 1 (16), 2018 CZU: 582.7: 630*232.328.1(478) PECULIARITIES OF REPRODUCTION OF THE SPECIES STRANVAESIA DAVIDIANA DECNE IN THE REPUBLIC OF MOLDOVA Roşca I., Onica E., Palancean A. National Botanical Garden (Institute) Abstract: The peculiarities of growth, development and reproduction of the introduced speciesStranvaesia davidiana Decne in the Republic of Moldova were described in the present paper. The optimal methods of reproduction of the species were layering and lignified stem cuttings, treated with 0.01% IBA solution, during the 16-hour exposure. Keywords: Stranvaesia, vegetative propagation, 0.01 % IBA solution. INTRODUCTION The main strategy of botanists is and will be the intensification and mobilization of new plants from spontaneous and exotic florae. World dendroflora provides us many woody plants of interest for various branches of the national economy. In this context, we consider Stranvaesia davidiana a precious and promising shrub for our country. The genus Stranvaesia Lindl. belongs to the subfamily Maloideae, fam. Rosaceae, which includes 5 species of evergreen trees and shrubs, widespread in China and the Himalaya mountains. The common name is Chinese photinia. In the native country, it grows well on the slopes and in mountain areas up to the altitude of 2300 m, reaches about 8 m in height. The present species has been grown in ex-USSR since 1917. The shrub was cultivated on the Black Sea coast during the 1929-1930 years. Currently, there are Stranvaesia davidiana shrubs in Nikita Botanical Garden, Yalta and in parks of Sochi, Sukhumi, Batumi etc. [1, 3]. In the Republic Moldova, it is grown in the nursery of the Botanical Garden (Institute) of ASM and only by some amateurs [1, 2].

  • Generic Limits of Pyrinae: Insights from Nuclear Ribosomal DNA Sequences
    Botanical Studies (2012) 53: 151-164. SYSTEMATICS Generic limits of Pyrinae: Insights from nuclear ribosomal DNA sequences Qing-Yan LI1, Wei GUO1, Wen-Bo LIAO1,*, James A. MACKLIN2, and Jian-Hua LI3,* 1Sun Yat-sen University, School of Life Sciences, Guangdong Key Laboratory of Plant Resources, Guangzhou, Guangdong, 510275, P.R. China 2Harvard University Herbaria, Organismal and Evolutionary Biology, 22 Divinity Avenue, Cambridge, Massachusetts, 02138, USA 3Biology Department, Hope College, MI 49423, USA (Received August 23, 2010; Accepted October 6, 2011) ABSTRACT. The subtribe Pyrinae, formerly the Maloideae, is a monophyletic group of about 1,000 species that includes well known fruit crops such as apple (Malus), pear (Pyrus), quince (Cydonia), loquat (Eriobotrya), chokeberry (Aronia), and serviceberry (Amelanchier). Generic limits have been fluid in Pyrinae, especially in Malus, Sorbus and Photinia. This study evaluated the generic limits of 180 samples of multiple species or accessions from each of the traditional genera using sequences of the nrDNA ITS region. The ITS data recog- nized 24 genera, including Amelanchier, Aria (including Micromeles), Aronia, Chaenomeles, Chamaemespilus, Chamaemeles, Cormus, Cotoneaster, Crataegus, Cydonia, Dichotomanthes, Eriobotrya, Hesperomeles, Mala- comeles, Malus (including Chloromeles, Docynia, Docyniopsis, and Eriolobus), Mespilus, Osteomeles, Pera- phyllum, Pourthiaea, Pseudocydonia, Pyrus, Rhaphiolepis, Sorbus, and Torminalis. However, both Photinia and Pyracantha are polyphyletic. Photinia is separated into different clades, one of which contains species of Heteromeles and Stranvaesia. Asian species of Pyracantha do not form a clade with P. coccinea of southern Europe and Iran. Our results support the close relationship of Amelanchier, Malacomeles, and Peraphyllum, and of Crataegus and Mespilus, and for the first time recognize the sister relationship of the South American genus Hesperomeles with the Crataegus-Mespilus clade.

MANCHESTER* 2Zhi-Duan CHEN 2An-Ming LU 3Kazuhiko UEMURA 1(Florida Museum of Natural History, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL 32611-7800, USA) 2(State Key Laboratory of Systematic and Evolutionary Botany, Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100093, China) 3(National Museum of Nature and Science, Tokyo 169-0073, Japan) Abstract We review the fossil history of seed plant genera that are now endemic to eastern Asia. Although the majority of eastern Asian endemic genera have no known fossil record at all, 54 genera, or about 9%, are reliably known from the fossil record. Most of these are woody (with two exceptions), and most are today either broadly East Asian, or more specifically confined to Sino-Japanese subcategory rather than being endemic to the Sino- Himalayan area. Of the “eastern Asian endemic” genera so far known from the fossil record, the majority formerly occurred in Europe and/or North America, indicating that eastern Asia served as a late Tertiary or Quaternary refugium for taxa. Hence, many of these genera may have originated in other parts of the Northern Hemisphere and expanded their ranges across continents and former sea barriers when tectonic and climatic conditions al- lowed, leading to their arrival in eastern Asia. Although clear evidence for paleoendemism is provided by the gymnosperms

  • Diversity of Plant Defense Elicitor Peptides Within the Rosaceae Cristina Ruiz†, Anna Nadal†, Laura Foix, Laura Montesinos, Emilio Montesinos and Maria Pla*
    Ruiz et al. BMC Genetics (2018) 19:11 DOI 10.1186/s12863-017-0593-4 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Diversity of plant defense elicitor peptides within the Rosaceae Cristina Ruiz†, Anna Nadal†, Laura Foix, Laura Montesinos, Emilio Montesinos and Maria Pla* Abstract Background: Plant elicitor peptides (Peps) are endogenous molecules that induce and amplify the first line of inducible plant defense, known as pattern-triggered immunity, contributing to protect plants against attack by bacteria, fungi and herbivores. Pep topic application and transgenic expression have been found to enhance disease resistance in a small number of model plant-pathogen systems. The action of Peps relies on perception by specific receptors, so displaying a family-specific activity. Recently, the presence and activity of Peps within the Rosaceae has been demonstrated. Here we characterized the population of Pep sequences within the economically important plant family of Rosaceae, with special emphasis on the Amygdaleae and Pyreae tribes, which include the most relevant edible species such as apple, pear and peach, and numerous ornamental and wild species (e.g. photinia, firethorn and hawthorn). Results: The systematic experimental search for Pep and the corresponding precursor PROPEP sequences within 36 Amygdaleae and Pyreae species, and 100 cultivars had a highly homogeneous pattern, with two tribe-specific Pep types per plant, i.e. Pep1 and Pep2 (Amygdaleae) or Pep3 and Pep4 (Pyreae). Pep2 and Pep3 are highly conserved, reaching identity percentages similar to those of genes used in plant phylogenetic analyses, while Pep1 and Pep4 are somewhat more variable, with similar values to the corresponding PROPEPs. In contrast to Pep3 and Pep4, Pep1 and Pep2 sequences of different species paralleled their phylogenetic relationships, and putative ancestor sequences were identified.
