  • Native Plants of East Central Illinois and Their Preferred Locations”
    OCTOBER 2007 Native Plants at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Campus: A Sourcebook for Landscape Architects and Contractors James Wescoat and Florrie Wescoat with Yung-Ching Lin Champaign, IL October 2007 Based on “Native Plants of East Central Illinois and their Preferred Locations” An Inventory Prepared by Dr. John Taft, Illinois Natural History Survey, for the UIUC Sustainable Campus Landscape Subcommittee - 1- 1. Native Plants and Plantings on the UIUC Campus This sourcebook was compiled for landscape architects working on projects at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign campus and the greater headwaters area of east central Illinois.1 It is written as a document that can be distributed to persons who may be unfamiliar with the local flora and vegetation, but its detailed species lists and hotlinks should be useful for seasoned Illinois campus designers as well. Landscape architects increasingly seek to incorporate native plants and plantings in campus designs, along with plantings that include adapted and acclimatized species from other regions. The term “native plants” raises a host of fascinating scientific, aesthetic, and practical questions. What plants are native to East Central Illinois? What habitats do they occupy? What communities do they form? What are their ecological relationships, aesthetic characteristics, and practical limitations? As university campuses begin to incorporate increasing numbers of native species and areas of native planting, these questions will become increasingly important. We offer preliminary answers to these questions, and a suite of electronic linkages to databases that provide a wealth of information for addressing more detailed issues. We begin with a brief introduction to the importance of native plants in the campus environment, and the challenges of using them effectively, followed by a description of the database, online resources, and references included below.

  • GENOME EVOLUTION in MONOCOTS a Dissertation
    GENOME EVOLUTION IN MONOCOTS A Dissertation Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School At the University of Missouri In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy By Kate L. Hertweck Dr. J. Chris Pires, Dissertation Advisor JULY 2011 The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the dissertation entitled GENOME EVOLUTION IN MONOCOTS Presented by Kate L. Hertweck A candidate for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy And hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. Dr. J. Chris Pires Dr. Lori Eggert Dr. Candace Galen Dr. Rose‐Marie Muzika ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am indebted to many people for their assistance during the course of my graduate education. I would not have derived such a keen understanding of the learning process without the tutelage of Dr. Sandi Abell. Members of the Pires lab provided prolific support in improving lab techniques, computational analysis, greenhouse maintenance, and writing support. Team Monocot, including Dr. Mike Kinney, Dr. Roxi Steele, and Erica Wheeler were particularly helpful, but other lab members working on Brassicaceae (Dr. Zhiyong Xiong, Dr. Maqsood Rehman, Pat Edger, Tatiana Arias, Dustin Mayfield) all provided vital support as well. I am also grateful for the support of a high school student, Cady Anderson, and an undergraduate, Tori Docktor, for their assistance in laboratory procedures. Many people, scientist and otherwise, helped with field collections: Dr. Travis Columbus, Hester Bell, Doug and Judy McGoon, Julie Ketner, Katy Klymus, and William Alexander. Many thanks to Barb Sonderman for taking care of my greenhouse collection of many odd plants brought back from the field.

    RWKiger 5 Jul 18 Literature Cited Robert W. Kiger, Editor This is a consolidated list of all works cited in volume 22, whether as selected references, in text, or in nomenclatural contexts. In citations of articles, both here and in the taxonomic treatments, and also in nomenclatural citations, the titles of serials are rendered in the abbreviated forms recommended in G. D. R. Bridson and E. R. Smith (1991). Cross references to the corresponding full serial titles are interpolated here alphabetically by abbreviated form. In nomenclatural citations (only), book titles are rendered in the abbreviated forms recommended in F. A. Stafleu and R. S. Cowan (1976–1988) and F. A. Stafleu and E. A. Mennega (1992+). Here, those abbreviated forms are indicated parenthetically following the full citations of the corresponding works, and cross references to the full citations are interpolated in the list alphabetically by abbreviated form. Two or more works published in the same year by the same author or group of coauthors will be distinguished uniquely and consistently throughout all volumes of Flora of North America by lower-case letters (b, c, d, ...) suffixed to the date for the second and subsequent works in the set. The suffixes are assigned in order of editorial encounter and do not reflect chronological sequence of publication. The first work by any particular author or group from any given year carries the implicit date suffix "a"; thus, the sequence of explicit suffixes begins with "b". Some citations in this list have dates suffixed "b" but are not preceded by citations of "[a]" works for the same year, or have dates suffixed "c" but are not preceded by citations of "[a]" and/or "b" works for that year.

  • Pruning of Select Native Plants
    Pruning of Select Native Plants Courtesy of Jane Gulley, Arkansas Master Gardener Pruning rules of thumb: Shrubs If they bloom once in spring, prune after blooming. Otherwise prune late February or early March. That generally means they bloom on new wood. If they bloom on new wood you can give periodic haircuts for wild branches and it won’t hurt the bush or blooms for next year. Wildflowers Real early spring bloomers leave alone. Many of them are ephemerals and will be gone shortly. For those that are early but not ephemeral, you can cut back the foliage when they look ratty, e.g. Columbine, Amsonia, and Penstemon. If the plant blooms mid-summer you can cut it by half early; when it is 6 inches cut to 3 or 4 inches. If the plant blooms late summer you can give it the early cut PLUS a second cut mid-summer; this might delay flowering a week or so, and some blooms might be a little smaller, but it won’t flop and will be sturdier. The second cut should be about a third, not more than half. Keep records of what you do! Write it down and take a picture so you can review and revise each year. If something doesn’t work, don’t it again. 1. Alexanders, Heart–leaved (Zizia aperta) – trim stems to basal clump after flowering. Remove unwanted seedlings when small. 2. Alexanders, Golden (Zizia aurea) – same as above 3. Amsonia, Arkansas (Amsonia hubrichtii) – shear to half, or more, in spring after flowering; sap causes burns on skin 4.

  • Ecological Findings of Field Studies on Tradescantia Ohiensis And
    Ecological Findings of Field Studies on Tradescantia ohiensis and Tradescantia virginian a (Common Spiderworts) and DNA Isolation and PCR Protocol Optimization for Microsatellite Genetic Studies An Honors Thesis (HONRS 499) by Kurt Marcus Losier Thesis Advisor Dr. Robert 1. Hammersmith Ball State University Muncie, Indiana April,2004 Expected Date of Graduation: May 8, 2004 Abstract: The goal of this study was focused on growth form analysis and study of the genomes and genomic relationships of Tradescantia ohiensis and Tradescantia virginiana (Spiderworts) using DNA microsatellites. Ecological field studies were conducted on Dauphin Island, Alabama, and in Henry County in Central Indiana. Analysis of the growth forms and habitats of the two species resulted in significant ecological conclusions. These include the analysis of altered patterns of growth in less than ideal environments (sand, salt spray, and shade), finding that the size and health of the plant is directly related to the environment in which that plant lives, and the realization that reproductive structure biomass is constant, despite the biomass allocation to other plant parts. A genomic DNA isolation and PCR protocol were also developed, using somatic tissue and pollen samples that were collected during the field studies. A sample was taken from each of the 500 plants examined, providing a source for DNA microsatellite analysis of genetic relatedness between two different species and between populations within the same species.
