Comparative Anatomy of Ovules in Galinsoga, Solidago and Ratibida (Asteraceae)
ACTA BIOLOGICA CRACOVIENSIA Series Botanica 56/2: 115–125, 2014 DOI: 10.2478/abcsb-2014-0024 COMPARATIVE ANATOMY OF OVULES IN GALINSOGA, SOLIDAGO AND RATIBIDA (ASTERACEAE) JOLANTA KOLCZYK1, PIOTR STOLARCZYK2, AND BARTOSZ J. PŁACHNO1* 1Department of Plant Cytology and Embryology, Jagiellonian University, Gronostajowa 9, 30-387 Cracow, Poland 2Unit of Botany and Plant Physiology, Institute of Plant Biology and Biotechnology, University of Agriculture in Cracow, Al. 29 Listopada 54, 31-425 Cracow, Poland Manuscript submitted September 9, 2014; revision accepted October 22, 2014 Many Asteraceae species have been introduced into horticulture as ornamental or interesting exotic plants. Some of them, including Solidago and Galinsoga, are now aggressive weeds; others such as Ratibida are not. Special modifications of the ovule tissue and the occurrence of nutritive tissue have been described in several Asteraceae species, including invasive Taraxacum species. This study examined whether such modifications might also occur in other genera. We found that the three genera examined – Galinsoga (G. quadriradiata), Solidago (S. canadensis, S. rigida, S. gigantea) and Ratibida (R. pinnata) – differed in their nutritive tissue structure. According to changes in the integument, we identified three types of ovules in Asteraceae: “Taraxacum” type (recorded in Taraxacum, Bellis, Solidago, Chondrilla), with well-developed nutritive tissue having very swollen cell walls of spongy structure; “Galinsoga” type (in Galinsoga), in which the nutritive tissue cells have more cyto- plasm and thicker cell walls than the other integument parenchyma cells, and in which the most prominent character of the nutritive tissue cells is well-developed rough ER; and “Ratibida” type (in Ratibida), in which the nutritive tissue is only slightly developed and consists of large highly vacuolated cells. -

S.F. Blake, G. hispida Benth., G. aristulata Bickn., G. bicolorata St.John & White, G. caracasana (DC.) Schultz-Bip. In some European floras the synonym G. ciliata (Raf.) S.F. Blake is considered to be a separate species and G. quadriradiata auct. is often cited as a synonym for G. ciliata. However, in its native range in South and Central America as well as in modern floras in various European countries G. ciliata (Raf.) S.F. Blake is defined as a synonym for G. quadriradiata Ruiz & Pav., and G. quadriradiata clearly has priority. Galinsoga as a genus was described by Ruiz and Pavón in 1794, G. parviflora was described by Cavanilles in 1795, and G. quadriradiata was described by Ruiz and Pavón in 1798. Flora of North America gives 32 synonyms for the species G. -

The use of regional phylogenies in exploring the structure of plant assemblages Tammy L. Elliott Doctor of Philosophy Department of Biology McGill University Montr´eal, Qu´ebec, Canada 2015-09-015 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy c Copyright Tammy L. Elliott, 2015 All rights reserved Dedication I dedicate this thesis to my parents, who sadly both left this world much to early. I like to dream that you are both enjoying your time together in a place with no worries, where you can enjoy all of the wonderful things in life. Dad—Although you left us when we were so young, I daily cherish the special times the two of us spent together. The memories of exploring the countryside, visiting neighbours, caring for the pigs and skipping school to fish are always close to my heart. Mom—I miss your strength, interesting perspective (albeit humorously pessimistic), no-nonsense attitude towards life and listening ear. I hope that you are finding ways to enjoy your grandchildren and tend your beautiful gardens. I would like to assure you that yes—one day I will have a full-time job. If Roses grow in Heaven Lord, please pick a bunch for me. Place them in my Mother’s arms and tell her they’re from me. Tell her that I love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile, place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for awhile Because remembering her is easy, I do it every day, but there’s an ache within my heart that will never go away. -

INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into die film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections w ith a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. -

Available online at http://www.tjpr.org http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/tjpr.v16i12.29 Review Article Ethnobotanical, phytochemical and pharmacological properties of Galinsoga parviflora (Asteraceae): A review Samar Ali1*, Sara Zameer2, Mohammad Yaqoob1 1Department of Chemistry, University of Balochistan, Quetta 87300, 2Department of Chemistry, Sardar Bahadur Khan Women’s University, Quetta, Pakistan *For correspondence: Email: [email protected]; Tel: +92819211266 Sent for review: 8 February 2017 Revised accepted: 24 November 2017 Abstract Galinsoga parviflora belongs to the family Astraceae. It is distributed in Central and South America, Europe, West Indies, Mexico, Australia, Africa and Asia. The plant is used in traditional preparations for wound healing as well as for the treatment of blood coagulation problems, cold, flu, toothache, and dermatological and eye diseases. The healing properties of Galinsoga parviflora are due to the presence of diverse secondary metabolites. The plant is non-toxic, and is used as fodder for cattle. Humans also use it as a vegetable for preparing soups and salad. Crude extracts and pure compounds isolated from the plant possess potent pharmacological activities such as antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and nematicidal effects. They exhibit urease and α-glucosidase activities, and have been shown to exert cytotoxic, hepatoprotective and hypoglycemic effects. Over thirty-eight compounds from Galinsoga parviflora have been isolated and characterized. The present review focuses on the ethno-medicinal uses, isolated natural products and biological activities of Galinsoga parviflora. -
Current Status on Influx and Habitat of Exotic Weeds in Korea
Proceedings of the 21st Asian Pacific Weed Science Society Conference (Editors: B. Marambe, U.R. Sangakkara, W.A.J.M. De Costa, and A.S.K. Abeysekara), 2-6 October 2007, Colombo, Sri Lanka. CURRENT STATUS ON INFLUX AND HABITAT OF EXOTIC WEEDS IN KOREA S-M. Oh, B-C. Moon and C-S. Kim Department of Agricultural Biology, National Institute Agricultural Science & Technology, RDA, Suwon City Korea [email protected] Abstract: For investigation on the present status of exotic weeds in Korea, the number of exotic weed species, their inflow time and native regions were examined with literature. Field surveys were also conducted for seven years from 1995 to 2001. Exotic weeds naturalized in Korea are composed of 315 species in 37 families until 2001. Among the weed flora, 135 exotic weed species have been reported since 1980. The number of exotic weeds by the native regions was 72, 32, 122 and 29 in North America, South America, Europe and Asia, respectively. Many species of exotic weeds are distributed near the ports, roadside for transport of imported cereals, circumference of highway and reclaimed land with wastes. 72 and 56 exotic weeds are found in farmland and pasture, respectively. Also, exotic weed newly found in cultivated area from 1995 to 1999 was reported as 34 species from 13 families. Key words: Exotic weeds, in-flow time, native regions, habitat. Introduction Weeds found in Korea can be discriminated as native weeds and exotic ones. However, all weeds not originating in the country are called foreign weeds. In addition, naturalized weeds are those exotic ones that are completely adapted to the domestic environment. -

ISSN 1211-3026 Čas. Slez. Muz. Opava (A), 60: 201-212, 2011 DOI: 10.2478/v10210-011-0023-6 Analysis of synanthropic vegetation in the territory of the city of Ostrava Marie Opálková & Šárka Cimalová Analysis of synanthropic vegetation in the territory of the city of Ostrava.– Čas. Slez. Muz. Opava (A), 60: 201-212, 2011. Abstract: This paper is a result of the field research of synanthropic vegetation in the territory of the city of Ostrava in the summer of 2010 (June - August) and in the spring of 2011 (April). A total of 213 reléves were carried out in three types of habitats (borders of fields, ruderal areas and railway tracks). The reléves were transferred to the 'Turboveg' database computer programme and analyzed using the Expert system of vegetation of the Czech Republic (the 'Coctail' method) in the 'Juice' computer programme. This paper contains the evaluation of the occurrence of plant species in particular habitats and of the types of their synanthropy with special regard to endangered and invasive species. A total of 201 species of vascular plants were found, among them 134 apophytes. A total of 4 endangered species and 8 invasive species were found. A total of 5 classes, 15 alliances and 25 associations were found using the analysis of vegetation in the 'Juice' computer programme. Only 5 associations occurred in all studied types of habitats. The most common association was Convolvulo arvensis-Elytrigietum repentis. Keywords: synanthropic vegetation, Ostrava, borders of fields, ruderal areas, railway tracks, hemicryptophyte, therophyte, apophyte, archaeophyte, neophyte, Turboveg, Juice Introduction The existence of synanthropic communities depends on human activity.
