  • The British Forms of Tuberaria Guttata (L.) Fourreau
    THE BRITISH FORMS OF TUBERARIA GUTTATA (L.) FOURREAU By M. C. F. PROCTOR Department of Botany, University of Exeter ABSTRACT An account is given of the variation in British Tuberaria guttata, and of its previous taxonomic treat­ ment: the taxonomic value of various characters is examined. Most of the Welsh and Irish plants includ­ ing the type population of Helianthemum breweri Planch. differ from T. guttata as it occurs in the Channel Isles and northern France in their shorter stature, the more common presence of bracts and other characters. All the characters said to distinguish breweri intergrade continuously with those of typical guttata in both herbarium and cultivated material, and are only loosely correlated. The more compact Welsh and Irish plants appear to be comparable with plants in similar exposed coastal habitats in north-west France. It is concluded that T. guttata shows ecotypic differentiation in relation to exposure on the Atlantic coast of Europe, and that the populations combining short diffuse habit and numerous bracts may be of polytopic origin. It is suggested that they should not be given formal taxonomic recognition. 1. INTRODUCTION Like a number of other widespread Mediterranean species, Tuberaria guttata extends northwards up the west coast of Europe to a northern limit in the British Isles. Up to the north coast of France its distribution is more or less continuous, and the Channel Islands lie on the northern fringe of this essentially continuous area. But north of the English Channel its range is disjunct, and it occurs only in widely separated colonies on the coasts of north Wales and western Ireland.

    Cercis: The Redbuds by KENNETH R. ROBERTSON One of the few woody plants native to eastern North America that is widely planted as an ornamental is the eastern redbud, Cercis canadensis. This plant belongs to a genus of about eight species that is of interest to plant geographers because of its occurrence in four widely separated areas - the eastern United States southwestward to Mexico; western North America; south- ern and eastern Europe and western Asia; and eastern Asia. Cercis is a very distinctive genus in the Caesalpinia subfamily of the legume family (Leguminosae subfamily Caesalpinioi- - deae). Because the apparently simple heart-shaped leaves are actually derived from the fusion of two leaflets of an evenly pinnately compound leaf, Cercis is thought to be related to -~auhinic~, which includes the so-called orchid-trees c$~~ cultivated in tropical regions. The leaves of Bauhinia are usu- ally two-lobed with an apical notch and are made up of clearly ~ two partly fused leaflets. The eastern redbud is more important in the garden than most other spring flowering trees because the flower buds, as well as the open flowers, are colorful, and the total ornamental season continues for two to three weeks. In winter a small bud is found just above each of the leaf scars that occur along the twigs of the previous year’s growth; there are also clusters of winter buds on older branches and on the tree trunks (Figure 3). In early spring these winter buds enlarge (with the excep- tion of those at the tips of the branches) and soon open to re- veal clusters of flower buds.

  • Pollen Flora of Pakistan -Lxi. Violaceae
    Pak. J. Bot., 41(1): 1-5, 2009. POLLEN FLORA OF PAKISTAN -LXI. VIOLACEAE ANJUM PERVEEN AND MUHAMMAD QAISER* Department of Botany, University of Karachi, Karachi, Pakistan *Federal Urdu University of Arts, Science and Technology, Karachi, Pakistan. Abstract Pollen morphology of 5 species of the family Violaceae from Pakistan has been examined by light and scanning electron microscope. Pollen grains are usually radially symmetrical, isopolar, colporate, sub-prolate to prolate-spheroidal. Sexine slightly thicker or thinner than nexine. Tectum mostly densely punctate rarely psilate. On the basis of exine pattern two distinct pollen types viz., Viola pilosa–type and Viola stocksii-type are recognized. Introduction Violaceae is a family with 20 genera and about 800 species (Mabberley, 1987). In Pakistan it is represented by one genus and 17 species (Qaiser & Omer, 1985). Plant perennial herbs, or shrubs leaves simple, alternate rarely opposite, flowers bisexual, zygomorphic or actinomorphic, calyx 5, corolla of 5 petals, anterior petal large and spurred. Androecium of 5 stamens. Gynoecium a compound pistil of 3 united carpels, ovules superior, fruit capsule. The family is of little economic importance except for the garden favorite, Violets, Violas and Pansies. Pollen morphology of the family has been examined by Erdtman (1952), Lobreau- Callen (1977), Moore & Webb (1978) and Dojas et al., (1993). Moore et al., (1991) examined pollen morphology of the genus Viola. Kubitzki (2004) examined the pollen morphology of the family Violaceae. There are no reports on pollen morphology of the family Violaceae from Pakistan. Present investigations are based on the pollen morphology of 5 species representing a single genus of the family Violaceae by light and scanning electron microscope.

    Spanish Pyrenees 15 – 22 June 2016 Participants Sue and Peter Burge Elonwy and Peter Crook Helen and Malcolm Crowder Jackie and Ray Guthrie Ann Stearns Leader Chris Gibson, who also wrote this report. Our hosts: Melanie and Peter Rich at Casa Sarasa www.casasarasa.com Photos by Chris Gibson (CG), Helen Crowder (HC) and Peter Crook (PC), all taken during this holiday. At the end of this report there are photos of some of the non-British moths seen during the week. Front cover: enjoying Aisa valley (CG). Below: eating outside on the last evening (CG) and the green pastures of the upper Hecho valley (HC). This holiday, as for every Honeyguide holiday, also puts something into conservation in our host country by way of a contribution to the wildlife that we enjoyed, in this case for La Sociedad Española de Ornitología (SEO), the Spanish Ornithological Society, and its work in Aragón. The conservation contribution this year of £40 per person was supplemented by gift aid through the Honeyguide Wildlife Charitable Trust, leading to a total of £440 This donation brings the total given to SEO since the first Honeyguide holiday in Spain in 1991 to £16,745 (through all Honeyguide holidays, mostly the Spanish Pyrenees and Extremadura). As at July 2016, the total for all conservation contributions through Honeyguide since 1991 was £108,716. 2 DAILY DIARY Wednesday 15 June: The way there… What should have been a simple journey, Stansted to Biarritz then minibus to Berdún, had by 8pm turned out rather differently. After a series of delays due to thundery weather our flight eventually got onto French tarmac an hour late, where we were held on the plane because of the heavy rain, although any benefit from that was soon negated when we had to wait outside, in the continuing deluge, while another plane took off.

  • Tuberaria Guttata (L.) Fourr
    Tuberaria guttata (L.) Fourr Spotted Rock-rose Tuberaria guttata flowers from May to June and is best searched for on warm and sunny mornings when the bright yellow, purple- blotched petals open widely and are readily visible. Populations are known from northern Wales, western and south-western Ireland, the Channel Islands and western Scotland, although there are doubts about its provenance at the sole Scottish locality. It occurs at coastal locations in exposed, well-drained rocky outcrops on moderately acidic shallow peats, typically where there is sparse vegetation cover, making populations particularly vulnerable to the encroachment of more competitive vegetation. It is assessed as Near Threatened in Britain, but is of Least Concern in Wales. ©Joh n Crellin IDENTIFICATION HABITATS In flower T. guttata is unmistakable, with bright yellow petals In Britain and Ireland T. guttata grows on exposed rocky that have purple blotches and opposite leaves that are three- outcrops in bare open stony or peaty patches amongst species- v eined and turn reddish with age. Plants are variable in size, poor Calluna vulgaris-Scilla verna and C. vulgaris-Erica ranging from solitary flowers on short stems (1-2 cm) in cinerea heathland (NVC H7, H10), and more rarely Festuca exposed sites to much taller (to 20 cm) branched stems with ovina-Agrostis capillaris-Galium saxatile (NVC U4d) multiple flowers in more sheltered localities. grassland. Tuberaria guttata tends to be concentrated where there is a SIMILAR SPECIES sparse cov er of grasses, ericaceous shrubs and other small herbs, and often grows in a thin carpet of mosses and lichens.

  • Cotton Leaf Curl Disease – an Emerging Threat to Cotton Production Worldwide
    Journal of General Virology (2013), 94, 695–710 DOI 10.1099/vir.0.049627-0 Review Cotton leaf curl disease – an emerging threat to cotton production worldwide M. Naeem Sattar,1 Anders Kvarnheden,1 Muhammad Saeed2 and Rob W. Briddon2 Correspondence 1Department of Plant Biology and Forest Genetics, Uppsala BioCenter, Swedish University of Anders Kvarnheden Agricultural Sciences and Linnean Center for Plant Biology, Box 7080, SE-750 07 Uppsala, [email protected] Sweden 2National Institute for Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering, PO Box 577, Jhang Road, Faisalabad, Pakistan Cotton leaf curl disease (CLCuD) is a serious disease of cotton which has characteristic symptoms, the most unusual of which is the formation of leaf-like enations on the undersides of leaves. The disease is caused by whitefly-transmitted geminiviruses (family Geminiviridae, genus Begomovirus) in association with specific, symptom-modulating satellites (betasatellites) and an evolutionarily distinct group of satellite-like molecules known as alphasatellites. CLCuD occurs across Africa as well as in Pakistan and north-western India. Over the past 25 years, Pakistan and India have experienced two epidemics of the disease, the most recent of which involved a virus and satellite that are resistance breaking. Loss of this conventional host–plant resistance, which saved the cotton growers from ruin in the late 1990s, leaves farmers with only relatively poor host plant tolerance to counter the extensive losses the disease causes. There has always been the fear that CLCuD could spread from the relatively limited geographical range it encompasses at present to other cotton-growing areas of the world where, although the disease is not present, the environmental conditions are suitable for its establishment and the whitefly vector occurs.
