MARKETING DOCUMENTATION Sandalwood MARKETING DOCUMENTATION Sandalwood oil Family: Santalaceae Specie: Santalum spitacum Common names: Australian Sandalwood BOTANY The genus Santalum, represented by 16 species, belongs to the family Santalaceae. Its natural distribution is broad ranging from India (Santalum album), through Indonesia, Australia (Santalum spicatum), New Zealand, Polynesia (Santalum austrocaledonicum) eastwards to the Hawaiian Islands (Santalum ellipticum), and the Juan Fernandez Islands. Sandalwood is naturally found in the southern part of Western Australia, where this land is home to over 161 million hectares of the native trees Santalum spitacum, making it the largest natural Sandalwood resource in the world. Large plantations of Indian Sandalwood have also been established in northern part of Western Australia, expecting to supplement the wild supply in the future. Together with a strict regulation of tree’s harvesting, It exists their a 150 year Resource Management Plan to preserve native Sandalwood. As an example, 12 seeds are planted for every Sandalwood tree harvested. 30 – 40% of these are expected to survive beyond 10 years, and 1 kilogram of seeds (≈ 400) is planted for every 1 tonne of dead Sandalwood collected.

The main host species is Acacia acuminata which is used in plantations which sustains a 15 to 30 year long term host species in loamy sands over clay duplex soils. Rock sheaok Allocasuarina huegeliana, wodjil Acacia resinimarginea and mulga Acacia aneura are also used. Sandalwood has a shrubby to small tree habit, but can grow to 6 metres and is tolerant of drought and salt. The foliage is grey-green in colour. The fruit of S. spicatum is spherical, about 3 cm in diameter and is orange. An edible kernel with a hard shell forms the bulk of the fruit; the shell is smoother than S. acuminatum's deeply pitted surface. Germination occurs during warm and moist conditions. Sandalwood cannot persist in moist, dense forest types due to its poor tolerance of high shade levels. Sandalwood species generally have a broad edaphic range, usually with a preference for well drained neutral to slightly alkaline soils. They grow more quickly in fertile soils but are more at risk of being shaded out by taller, faster growing trees on such sites. Sandalwoods have a good regeneration potential and ability to colonize/invade nearby suitable sites. So long as some mature fruit-bearing trees are retained, birds will spread the fruit. Their invasive potential is seldom considered a drawback due to the exceptionally high value of their heartwood. Furthermore, their small stature and susceptibility to being shaded out means they never become dominant and/or substantially modify or replace existing plant communities. The foliage shows wide variation. Leaves are opposite, usually in one plane, decussate on erect new growth, simple, entire, glabrous, dark green, and shiny on top and dull light green to glaucous underneath. The shape of the leaf is initially long and thin becoming shorter and broader in older plants. The fruit is a subglobose or ellipsoid, one-seeded drupe (7–20 mm long by 10–15mm diameter), green and firm, ripening red and turning purplish black and thinly fleshy when mature. Fruits have four longitudinal ridges and a square calyx scar at the apex. The kernels consist of a hard (woody), smooth or slightly rough, light- coloured endocarp enclosing a single seed. The primary advantages of sandalwoods are their ability to produce a high-value, non-perishable product (heartwood) that can provide cash income to nearby living people and communities. China, Taiwan, Singapore, Korea, and Japan, with no natural resources of sandalwood, are the main markets, together with India, which has its own production capability. Production of sandalwood heartwood from the South Pacific is highly variable, experiencing periods of boom and bust since exploitation commenced in the early 1800s.

Wood from sandalwood was traditionally used in the South Pacific for carvings, cultural uses, medicine, and burnt as an insect repellent. However, it is rarely used nowadays because of its scarcity and cash value. The grated wood was traditionally used to a limited extent to scent coconut oil (for application to the hair and body) and cultural artifacts such as tapa cloth.

    E R N V M E O N G T Forest E O H F T Products W A E I S L T A Commission E R R N A U S T WESTERN AUSTRALIA Guide to growing sandalwood plantations in Western Australia There are around 25 species of sandalwood found globally. Western Australia’s naturally growing species is Santalum spicatum, more commonly known as WA sandalwood. This guide has been developed WA sandalwood is one of Western Australia’s oldest export industries, with the wood first leaving the State to help landowners understand in 1845. the key considerations when Today the oils produced within the heartwood of sandalwood trees are highly valued internationally and establishing a WA sandalwood are used in a range of products, including perfumes, soaps and cosmetics. The scented wood is also prized and is plantation. often powdered to make incense sticks or carved to create ornaments. Growing sandalwood in plantations is complex, because it is a root hemiparasite. Sandalwood trees photosynthesize, but are also dependent on host trees for water and certain nutrients. Sandalwood can be successfully grown near a range of host species, but performs well when near nitrogen-fixing trees, especially within the genus Acacia. WA sandalwood can be grown using a variety of methods but the aim of this grower’s guide is to describe one commonly used approach that has been successful in a range of locations in the Wheatbelt and south west of Western Australia. It will include site selection, host species, establishment, thinning, host-to-sandalwood ratio, grazing, fire, seed production and rotation length.

    Elsevier Editorial System(tm) for Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution Manuscript Draft Manuscript Number: MPE-15-437R1 Title: Integration of complete chloroplast genome sequences with small amplicon datasets improves phylogenetic resolution in Acacia Article Type: Research Paper Keywords: integrative systematics; whole chloroplast genome; Acacia; ExaBayes; RAxML Corresponding Author: Ms. Anna Williams, Corresponding Author's Institution: Kings Park and Botanic Garden First Author: Anna Williams Order of Authors: Anna Williams; Joseph T Miller; Ian Small; Paul G Nevill; Laura M Boykin Abstract: Combining whole genome data with previously obtained amplicon sequences has the potential to increase the resolution of phylogenetic analyses, particularly at low taxonomic levels or where recent divergence, rapid speciation or slow genome evolution has resulted in limited sequence variation. However, the integration of these types of data for large scale phylogenetic studies has rarely been investigated. Here we conduct a phylogenetic analysis of the whole chloroplast genome and two nuclear ribosomal loci for 65 Acacia species from across the most recent Acacia phylogeny. We then combine this data with previously generated amplicon sequences (four chloroplast loci and two nuclear ribosomal loci) for 508 Acacia species. We use several phylogenetic methods, including maximum likelihood bootstrapping (with and without constraint) and ExaBayes, in order to determine the success of combining a dataset of 4,000 bp with one of 189,000 bp. The results of our study indicate that the inclusion of whole genome data gave a far better resolved and well supported representation of the phylogenetic relationships within Acacia than using only amplicon sequences, with the greatest support observed when using a whole genome phylogeny as a constraint on the amplicon sequences.

  • Flora and Vegetation of the Eastern Goldfields Ranges: Part 5
    Journal of the Royal Society of Western Australia, 84:129-142, 2001 Flora and vegetation of the Eastern Goldfields ranges: Part 5. Hunt Range, Yendilberin and Watt Hills N Gibson & M N Lyons Science Division, Department of Conservation and Land Management, Wildlife Research Center, PO Box 51 Wanneroo, WA 6065 email: [email protected]; [email protected] (Manuscript received May 2001; accepted August 2001) Abstract A study was undertaken of the flora and plant communities of the Watt and Yendilberin Hills and the Hunt Range on Jaurdi Station. The area has a complex geology which includes Archaean mafics, ultramafics and banded ironstones, and Tertiary laterites. A total flora of 287 taxa and one hybrid was recorded from the uplands, of which 273 were native and 15 were weeds. Fifty three quadrats were established along the range system and used to define seven community types, which were most highly correlated with soil chemistry and an inferred soil moisture gradient. None of the Bungalbin vegetation system is presently in any National Park or Nature Reserve, although the northern section of the Hunt Range has been recommended for inclusion into the Mt Manning Range Nature Reserve. Mining activity in the study area has the potential to severely impact on the restricted breakaway community type. Impacts of past wood harvesting for mining operations and for the water pipeline boilers are still evident decades after these operations ceased. Keywords: flora, vegetation, Goldfields, Hunt Range, Yendilberin Hills, Watt Hills Introduction of uplands of contrasting geologies which include mafic and ultramafic ridges (these formations are commonly Greenstone and banded ironstone ranges are common termed greenstones), banded ironstones and extensive landforms of the Eastern Goldfields and extend from the Tertiary laterites.

    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Guide to Users Background What is the summary for and where does it come from? This summary has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. It highlights important elements of the biodiversity of the region in two ways: • Listing species which may be significant for management because they are found only in the region, mainly in the region, or they have a conservation status such as endangered or vulnerable. • Comparing the region to other parts of Australia in terms of the composition and distribution of its species, to suggest components of its biodiversity which may be nationally significant. The summary was produced using the Australian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups.
