SWAFR - IBRA - All Vascular Plant Taxa Paul Gioia, Science and Conservation Division, Department of Parks and Wildlife Report generated on 22/06/2016 10:58:29 AM This analysis uses a pro tem definition of the SWAFR that served to define the study area. It was based on the collection of IBRA 6.1 bioregions most closely approximating the original definition of the Southwest Province by Beard (1980). Data for this report were derived from a snapshot taken from WAHERB on 18/05/2015 for Gioia & Hopper (2016) paper. Criteria for data extraction and analysis were: 1. All vascular plants 2. Species-rank names where the typical subspecies also existed were renamed to the typical subspecies to avoid counting duplicate taxa 3. All vascular plant taxa with current names, including weeds Note: 1. This report contains information generated from intersecting the supplied polygon layer LOCAL_SWFIBR with the point species occurrence layer WAHERB_FILT_ALL. 2. Endemism is calculated based on the records available to this analysis and is not necessarily authoritative.

    10 Seed Release and Dispersal Mechanisms

    10 Seed Release and Dispersal Mechanisms For seedling recruitment to occur seeds need to be dispersed into an environment that promotes germination and seedling survival. Dispersal consists of two phases. Primary dispersal is defined as the initial transport of seeds or seed-bearing fruits (collectively seeds and fruits are called diaspores) to the ground or water body, or for aerial parasites, a host branch. Secondary dispersal relates to any subsequent movement to the seed’s final resting place. Primary dispersal may be active (e.g. seeds released explosively from the fruit, e.g. dehiscence (opening) of Hardenbergia pods), passive (e.g. seeds fall out when the capsules of Eucalyptus open), or require a vector to aid in seed removal (e.g. wind uplift of winged seeds of Hakea or winged fruits of Nuytsia; Amyema berries consumed by mistletoe birds). Secondary dispersal involves either a biotic (e.g. ants) or environmental (e.g. wind, water) vector, and it is usually a different mechanism than that involved in primary dispersal. While primary dispersal is usually only for a few metres, secondary dispersal may cover several kilometres, and sometimes thousands for tiny seeds. This chapter covers some of the dispersal mechanisms exhibited by the SouthWest flora following their release. Terminology used to describe seed dispersal mechanisms is provided in Table 10.1.

Using a previously published rbcL phylogeny of the Amaranthaceae–Chenopodiaceae alliance (Kadereit et al. 2003) and new ITS phylogenies of the Camphorosmeae and Salicornieae, we conclude that Australia has been reached in at least nine independent colonization events: four in the Chenopodioideae, two in the Salicornieae, and one each in the Camphorosmeae, Suaedeae, and Salsoleae. Where feasible, we used molecular clock estimates to date the ages of the respective lineages. The two oldest lineages both belong to the Chenopodioideae (Scleroblitum and Chenopodium sect. Orthosporum/Dysphania) and date to 42.2–26.0 and 16.1–9.9 Mya, respectively. Most lineages (Australian Camphorosmeae, the Halosarcia lineage in the Salicornieae, Sarcocornia, Chenopodium subg. Chenopodium/Rhagodia, and Atriplex) arrived in Australia during the late Miocene to Pliocene when aridification and increasing salinity changed the landscape of many parts of the continent. The Australian Camphorosmeae and Salicornieae diversified rapidly after their arrival. The molecular-clock results clearly reject the hypothesis of an autochthonous stock of Chenopodiaceae dating back to Gondwanan times.
  • Integrated Approach to Nitrogen Fixing Tree Germplasm Development

    Integrated Approach to Nitrogen Fixing Tree Germplasm Development

    INTEGRATED APPROACH TO NITROGEN FIXING TREE GERMPLASM DEVELOPMENT JAKE HALLIDAY' ABSTRACT - The performance of nitrogen fixing trees introduced to new environments depends on proper reconstitution of the symbiotic associatioi on which the trees rely for their nutrition. Thus selection strategies employed to identify adapted g.rmplasm for particular sites must provide for three-way selection of seed, rhiobia and mycorrhizae. Selected lines must then be multiplied before they can be deployed in varying types of development programs. Speciai problems are faced in accomplishing these ends with virtually all nitrogen fixing tr-es. Results and experiences are described which emphasize the importance of parallel selection of plant germplasm and Rhizobiurn strains. '.n the case of VA mycorrhizae, effective symbioses can occur without specific inoculation. Methods for selecting and multiplying trees and their microsymbionts on a large scale are described and discussed. Index terms: mycorrhiza technology, Rhizobium technology, nitrogen fixing trees, plant selection, seed technology.

Facultad de Estudios Superiores Iztacala, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Tlalnepantla, Estado de México, México. 2 Departamento de Ecología Evolutiva, Instituto de Ecología, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, CDMX, México. Author for correspondence: [email protected] Abstract Background: The Neotropical ant-acacias show morphological variations in their vegetative characteristics as a consequence of their relation- ship with ants. However, there is no information regarding whether floral organs have also undergone any modification that prevents resident ants from approaching the inflorescences in anthesis. Questions: Are the patterns of floral development affected by the relationship with ants? Is there any floral organ or structure involved in avoid- ing the presence of ants during the flowering period? At what stage of development do these modifications arise, if at all? Studied species: Acacia cornigera (L.) Willd. Study site: Santiago Pinotepa Nacional, Oaxaca and Los Tuxtlas, Veracruz. March and May 2015. Methods: Dissections of inflorescences in every developmental stage from two populations, were examined using scanning electron micros- copy. Results: The inception patterns of the calyx (irregular), corolla (simultaneous), androecium (acropetally in alternate sectors) and gynoecium (precocious) agree with previous reports for non-myrmecophyic species of the Acacia genus. In mature stages, the presence of stomata is char- acteristic of bracts and petals.

We show that the disruption of this module in monocarpous Barbara Ambrose, flowers of A. thaliana aux1-22 mutants causes a failure of carpel closure, similar The New York Botanical Garden, USA to the failure of carpel fusion observed in the wild-type genetic background.

That rehabilitation seeks to provide visual management of he completed and backfilled faces when viewed from outside the pit and from longer distance. 2.0 Methods used There are difficulties in assessing the vegetation on the batters and slopes. The slopes are at the angle of repose for the dumped materials such as overburden. As such the hardened surface can be slippery and present a hazard to walking on the slopes in a number of locations, but particularly where the slopes are high or are above drops of the face of the quarry. The slopes were not walked on, on safety grounds but the vegetation was assessed by walking along the upper or lower edge of the rehabilitation and reviewing it from the edges. As such the data provides a guide and is close to the true values but is not to the same accuracy as using measuring tapes.

    Version 2 Targeted Threatened Flora Search Proposed Demonstration Trail Mount Clarence Albany

    Unit 5A 209 Chester Pass Road Albany WA 6330 9842 1575 [email protected] ABN 48 138 824 272 Job Ref: COA011 7th December 2016 Sandra Maciejewski Reserves Officer City of Albany PO Box 484 Albany WA 6331 Updated Report – Version 2 Targeted Threatened Flora Search Proposed Demonstration Trail Mount Clarence Albany Dear Sandra, On the 26th October 2016 Botanists/Ecologist, Karlene Bain and Bianca Theyer (Bio Diverse Solutions) undertook a targeted linear threatened flora search of 840m for a proposed mountain bike alignment at Mount Clarence, City of Albany (refer to Attachment A for the survey area). This survey was required as there was potential for threatened flora to be present within the subject area and there is proposed clearing of native vegetation as part of the proposed bike trail. The scope of work included: Undertake Targeted Flora Survey across subject site through linear sampling (10m buffer) in vegetation types present and mapping of boundaries of vegetation; Undertake any identification of any flora species, including herbarium identification if required; GPS and map any populations of Threatened Species (if applicable); and Prepare brief report on findings as per appropriate government agency legislation and guidelines. It is noted this survey was undertaken during the spring flowering period. The threatened flora search of the linear bike trail found that the Mount Clarence reserve is a diverse habitat with four vegetation types mapped, being: 1. Granite outcrop and fringing Taxandria shrub land; 2. Tall Gastrolobium shrub land; 3. Open Jarrah/ Marri woodland; and 4. Coastal heath. In November 2016 an occurrence of Stylidium falcatum (P1) was found (5 plants) on laterite soils associated with a cleared alignment for a powerline, on the edge of the jarrah/ marri ecotype.
