Se presenta un estudio, efectuado con microscopía de luz y electrónica de barrido, de la morfología del polen de representantes nativos, naturalizados y cultivados de Zingiberales, que crecen en humedales riopla- tenses y selvas subtropicales del NE de la Argentina. Las especies analizadas son Canna glauca y C. índica (Can- naceae), Heliconia psittacorum, H. brasiliensis y H. rostrata (Heliconiaceae), Thalia geniculata y Maranta leu- coneura (Marantaceae), Musa acuminata × balbisiana y M. × paradisiaca (Musaceae), Strelitzia nicolai y S. reginae (Strelitziaceae), Alpinia zerumbet, Hedychium coronarium y H. gardnerianum (Zingiberaceae). Se en- contraron granos esferoidales, oblados, apolares y heteropolares, inaberturados, con exinas delgadas e intinas gruesas con dos capas. Los tipos de ornamentación hallados son: equinados, típicos o micro-equinados, de Can- naceae, Heliconiaceae y algunas Zingiberaceae, muriformes, típicos o micro-muriformes (rugados, rugulados, areolados) y lisos, presentes en Musaceae, Strelitziaceae y Zingiberaceae. El polen de Thalia geniculata, los gra- nos rugados de Musaceae y los areolados de Strelitziaceae se describen por primera vez, y se analizan rasgos, co- mo las hebras de elastina y el polenkit, que aportan caracteres actualizados para el conocimiento de los taxones seleccionados, poco difundidos desde el punto de vista palinológico.

[en] Pollen of Zingiberales from the Rio de la Plata wetlands and subtropical rainforests of northeastern Argentina Abstract. A study of the morphology of the pollen of native, naturalized, and cultivated representatives of Zingiberales growing in the Río de La Plata wetlands, and Northeastern subtropical rainforests of the Argentina, was performed with light and electron microscopy. The analyzed species were C. glauca and C. indica (Cannaceae), Heliconia psittacorum, H. brasiliensis and H. rostrata (Heliconiaceae), Thalia geniculata and Maranta leuconeura (Marantaceae), Musa acuminata × balbisiana y M. × paradisiaca (Musaceae), Strelitzia nicolai and S. reginae (Strelitziaceae), Alpinia zerumbet, Hedychium coronarium and H. gardnerianum (Zingiberaceae). Spheroid, oblate, apolar and heteropolar, inaperturate grains were found, with thin exines, and thicker, two-layered intines. The ornamentation types were echinate, typical and micro-echinate, found in Cannaceae, Heliconiaceae, and some Zingiberaceae, muriforme types (rugate, rugulate, and areolate), and smooth or psilate exine surface ornamentations, present in Musaceae, Strelitziaceae and Zingiberaceae. Thalia geniculata smooth grains, Musaceae rugate grains, and Strelitziaceae areolate grains are described here by the first time. Other traits were analyzed, such as the presence of elastine threads and pollenkitt. All these characters contribute to an update of the knowledge of these selected taxa, scarcely known from a palynological point of view. Keywords: pollen; Canna; Heliconia; Thalia; Maranta; Musa; Hedychium; Argentina. Cómo citar: Passarelli, L. M.; Dedominici, A. C. & Rolleri, C. H. 2016.

  • Indoor Plants Or Houseplants
    Visit us on the Web: www.gardeninghelp.org Indoor Plants or Houseplants Over the past twenty years houseplants have grown in popularity. Offered in a wide variety of sizes, shapes, colors and textures, houseplants beautify our homes and help soften our environment. They have been scientifically proven to improve our health by lowering blood pressure and removing pollutants from the air we breathe. When selecting a houseplant, choose reputable suppliers who specialize in growing houseplants. Get off to a good start by thoroughly examining each plant. Watch for brown edges and spindly growth with elongated stems and large gaps between new leaves. Inspect leaves and stem junctions for signs of insect or disease problems. Check any support stakes to make sure they are not hiding broken stems or branches. Finally, make sure the plant is placed in an area that suits its optimal requirements for light, temperature and humidity. Where to Place Your House Plants With the exception of the very darkest areas, you can always find a houseplant with growth requirements to match the environmental conditions in your home. The most important factors are light intensity and duration. The best way to determine the intensity of light at a window exposure area is to measure it with a light meter. A light meter measures light in units called foot-candles. One foot-candle is the amount of light from a candle spread over a square foot of surface area. Plants that prefer low light may produce dull, lifeless-looking leaves when exposed to bright light. Bright light can also cause leaf spots or brown-tipped scorched margins.

In total three genera and four species are considered native to Singapore (Donax canniformis, Phrynium hirtum, Stachyphrynium parvum, and Stachyphrynium latifolium) representing 33 % of diversity currently known to occur in Peninsular Malaysia. Although the genus Phrynium Willdenow (1797: 1) was previously reported for Singapore based on the presence of P. villosulum, we show that this species is, contrary to previous accounts, not native but introduced. Newly reported Phrynium hirtum therefore represents a new native generic record for the country. We are changing the status of Schumannianthus benthamianus, previously considered native, to cultivated, as there are no historic or recent collections of this species. Non-native species commonly employed in Singapore streetscapes and parks are also briefly discussed and illustrated in this paper.

    Plants for a Window Garden * Rev. Anselm M. Keefe, St. Norbert College, West De Pere, Wisconsin Selected plants for specific demonstrations in botany and plant ecology can be grown on laboratory window shelves with minimal expenditure of time and money, as long as normal care is taken to provide light, moisture, nutrition and to avoid infestation.
