NOTES Watsonia 25 (2005) NORTH WALES SPECIES of RUBUS L
Watsonia 25: 289–298 (2005) NOTES Watsonia 25 (2005) 289 Notes NORTH WALES SPECIES OF RUBUS L. (ROSACEAE) IN THE ISLE OF WIGHT In 1982 two sizeable populations of Rubus effrenatus Newton, a species up till then (and still) otherwise known only in north-west Wales, v.cc. 46–49, were discovered in the Isle of Wight, v.c. 10, at a distance of 11 km from each other. One population is near the Island’s southernmost tip, mainly among bracken along a crescent of gravel overlying the chalk on the north face of Head Down but with an outlying patch in a deep ‘green lane’ about 1·4 km to the north-west. The other site is towards the Island’s south-east corner, along a much-frequented public footpath forming the north boundary of Sandown Golf Course, a relic fragment of a once-extensive tract of partly- wooded acid ground that constituted Blackpan and Lake Commons. The species is unrepresented in Rubus collections made in these two localities by 19th century specialists in the genus, and that negative evidence, taken together with a subjective impression that both populations have expanded slightly in the years since their discovery, could be interpreted as indicating a relatively recent arrival in each case (Allen 2003). Though the two may have had independent origins, it is equally possible that one population has been derived from the other – in which case that on Head Down seems the more likely to be the parent colony. In 2002–4 two successive finds of another Rubus species provided a near-duplicate of this very unexpected national distribution pattern. -

Received: 11 September 2017; Accepted: 9 October 2017; Published: 11 October 2017 Abstract: Xanthones, as some of the most active components and widely distributed in various herb medicines, have drawn more and more attention in recent years. So far, 168 species of herbal plants belong to 58 genera, 24 families have been reported to contain xanthones. Among them, Calophyllum, Cratoxylum, Cudrania, Garcinia, Gentiana, Hypericum and Swertia genera are plant resources with great development prospect. This paper summarizes the plant resources, bioactivity and the structure-activity relationships (SARs) of xanthones from references published over the last few decades, which may be useful for new drug research and development on xanthones. Keywords: herbal medicines; xanthones; plant sources; pharmacology; gambogic acid; structure-activity relationships 1. Introdution Xanthones (IUPAC name 9H-xanthen-9-one) are a kind of phenolic acid with a three-ring skeleton, widely distributed in herbal medicines. -

Plantations Received 13 April 2009 established in subtropical China since the 1980s, mainly of Chinese fir (Cunninghamia lanceolata (Lamb.) Received in revised form 9 June 2009 Hook) in monocultures, have proved to be major C sinks. However, information is lacking about whether Accepted 27 June 2009 mixing Chinese fir with broadleaved tree species will increase stand growth and C sequestration. We address this question by comparing a pure Chinese fir plantation and two mixed plantations established Keywords: in 1990 at Huitong Experimental Station of Forest Ecology, Hunan Province, China. The mixed Carbon storage plantations include Chinese fir and either Kalopanax septemlobus (Thunb.) Koidz or Alnus cremastogyne Mixed plantation Burk., planted at 4:1 ratios. We found that total C storage was 123, 131 and 142 Mg haÀ1 in the pure Broadleaved tree Coniferous plantation plantation, mixed plantation with K. septemlobus, and mixed plantation with A. cremastogyne, respectively. -
Plastome Structure and Phylogenetic Relationships of Styracaceae (Ericales)

Landis Cornell University Hong-Xin Wang Hainan University Jian-Hua Wang Hainan University Zhi-Xin Zhu Hainan University Huafeng Wang ( [email protected] ) Hainan University https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0218-1728 Review Keywords: Styracaceae, Plastome, Genome structure, Phylogeny, positive selection Posted Date: January 29th, 2021 DOI: https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-55283/v2 License: This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Read Full License Page 1/25 Abstract Background: The Styracaceae are a woody, dicotyledonous family containing 12 genera and an estimated 160 species. Recent studies have shown that Styrax and Sinojackia are monophyletic, Alniphyllum and Bruinsmia cluster into a clade with an approximately 20-kb inversion in the Large Single-Copy (LSC) region. Halesia and Pterostyrax are not supported as monophyletic, while Melliodendron and Changiostyrax always form sister clades . Perkinsiodendron and Changiostyrax were newly established genera of Styracaceae. However, the phylogenetic relationship of Styracaceae at the genera level needs further research. Results: We collected 28 complete plastomes of Styracaceae, including 12 sequences newly reported here and 16 publicly available complete plastome sequences, comprising 11 of the 12 genera of Styracaceae. All species possessed the typical quadripartite structure of angiosperm plastomes, and the sequence difference is small, except for the large 20-kb (14 genes) inversion region found in Alniphyllum and Bruinsmia. Seven coding sequences (rps4, rpl23, accD, rpoC1, psaA, rpoA and ndhH) were identied to possess positively selected sites. Phylogenetic reconstructions based on seven data sets (i.e., LSC, SSC, IR, Coding, Non-coding, combination of LSC+SSC and concatenation of LSC+SSC+one IR) produced similar topologies.
