  • Characterization of the Wild Trees and Shrubs in the Egyptian Flora
    10 Egypt. J. Bot. Vol. 60, No. 1, pp. 147-168 (2020) Egyptian Journal of Botany http://ejbo.journals.ekb.eg/ Characterization of the Wild Trees and Shrubs in the Egyptian Flora Heba Bedair#, Kamal Shaltout, Dalia Ahmed, Ahmed Sharaf El-Din, Ragab El- Fahhar Botany Department, Faculty of Science, Tanta University, 31527, Tanta, Egypt. HE present study aims to study the floristic characteristics of the native trees and shrubs T(with height ≥50cm) in the Egyptian flora. The floristic characteristics include taxonomic diversity, life and sex forms, flowering activity, dispersal types,economic potential, threats and national and global floristic distributions. Nine field visits were conducted to many locations all over Egypt for collecting trees and shrubs. From each location, plant and seed specimens were collected from different habitats. In present study 228 taxa belonged to 126 genera and 45 families were recorded, including 2 endemics (Rosa arabica and Origanum syriacum subsp. sinaicum) and 5 near-endemics. They inhabit 14 habitats (8 natural and 6 anthropogenic). Phanerophytes (120 plants) are the most represented life form, followed by chamaephytes (100 plants). Bisexuals are the most represented. Sarcochores (74 taxa) are the most represented dispersal type, followed by ballochores (40 taxa). April (151 taxa) and March (149 taxa) have the maximum flowering plants. Small geographic range - narrow habitat - non abundant plants are the most represented rarity form (180 plants). Deserts are the most rich regions with trees and shrubs (127 taxa), while Sudano-Zambezian (107 taxa) and Saharo-Arabian (98 taxa) was the most. Medicinal plants (154 taxa) are the most represented good, while salinity tolerance (105 taxa) was the most represented service and over-collecting and over-cutting was the most represented threat.

  • Combined Phylogenetic Analyses Reveal Interfamilial Relationships and Patterns of floral Evolution in the Eudicot Order Fabales
    Cladistics Cladistics 1 (2012) 1–29 10.1111/j.1096-0031.2012.00392.x Combined phylogenetic analyses reveal interfamilial relationships and patterns of floral evolution in the eudicot order Fabales M. Ange´ lica Belloa,b,c,*, Paula J. Rudallb and Julie A. Hawkinsa aSchool of Biological Sciences, Lyle Tower, the University of Reading, Reading, Berkshire RG6 6BX, UK; bJodrell Laboratory, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, Richmond, Surrey TW9 3DS, UK; cReal Jardı´n Bota´nico-CSIC, Plaza de Murillo 2, CP 28014 Madrid, Spain Accepted 5 January 2012 Abstract Relationships between the four families placed in the angiosperm order Fabales (Leguminosae, Polygalaceae, Quillajaceae, Surianaceae) were hitherto poorly resolved. We combine published molecular data for the chloroplast regions matK and rbcL with 66 morphological characters surveyed for 73 ingroup and two outgroup species, and use Parsimony and Bayesian approaches to explore matrices with different missing data. All combined analyses using Parsimony recovered the topology Polygalaceae (Leguminosae (Quillajaceae + Surianaceae)). Bayesian analyses with matched morphological and molecular sampling recover the same topology, but analyses based on other data recover a different Bayesian topology: ((Polygalaceae + Leguminosae) (Quillajaceae + Surianaceae)). We explore the evolution of floral characters in the context of the more consistent topology: Polygalaceae (Leguminosae (Quillajaceae + Surianaceae)). This reveals synapomorphies for (Leguminosae (Quillajaceae + Suri- anaceae)) as the presence of free filaments and marginal ⁄ ventral placentation, for (Quillajaceae + Surianaceae) as pentamery and apocarpy, and for Leguminosae the presence of an abaxial median sepal and unicarpellate gynoecium. An octamerous androecium is synapomorphic for Polygalaceae. The development of papilionate flowers, and the evolutionary context in which these phenotypes appeared in Leguminosae and Polygalaceae, shows that the morphologies are convergent rather than synapomorphic within Fabales.

MSc. Sarina Veldman, Department of Organismal Biology, Systematic Biology, Uppsala University, Sweden. Dr. Joseph Otieno, Institute for Traditional Medicine, Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciencies (MUHAS), Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Mödrar, marknader och medicin Hanna Lindh Traditionell medicin är den sjukvård, som majoriteten av Tanzanias befolkning använder sig av i första hand. Tanzania har en flora på omkring 11000 växtarter. Av dem används upp till 2500 för medicinska syften. Landet rymmer flera sårbara naturområden. I många fall är det där medicinalväxter finns. I och med människans ökade utbredning krymper dessa områden i storlek. Befolkningen växer och fler flyttar in till städerna. Detta resulterar i en kommersialisering av den traditionella medicinen. Medicinalväxter säljs på marknader i bland annat storstaden Dar es Salaam. Skördemetoderna kan bestå av ringbarkning och uppgrävda rötter och i och med att efterfrågan växer får inte växterna någon möjlighet att återhämta sig. Flera medicinalväxter har minskat i antal och listas som sårbara eller hotade. Naturvårdsåtgärder krävs för att Tanzanias befolkning även framöver ska kunna använda sig av traditionell medicin. För att kunna genomföra naturvårdsprogram krävs det att det finns information om vilka växtarter som används.

Les relations intergénériques et interspécifiques entre les espèces de ces trois genres ne sont pas résolues ce qui limite la vérification d’hypothèses taxonomiques, mais également biogéographiques concernant la dispersion de plantes depuis ou vers Madagascar. Une meilleure compréhension des relations évolutives et biogéographiques entre ces espèces menacées d’extinction permettrait une plus grande efficacité quant à leur conservation. L’objectif de ce mémoire est de reconstruire la phylogénie des espèces à l’aide de régions moléculaires des génomes chloroplastique et nucléaire, d’identifier les temps de divergences entre les espèces et de reconstruire l’aire géographique ancestrale pour chacun des groupes. Ce projet démontre que le genre Delonix n’est pas soutenu comme étant monophylétique et qu’une révision taxonomique s’impose.
