  • Morphological Peculiarities of Fruits of the Rare Species Iris Halophila Pall, I. Pumila L. and I. Hungarica Waldst. Et Kit
    Plant Introduction, 85/86, 85–92 (2020) https://doi.org/10.46341/PI2020007 UDC 581.47:582.579.2(477-25) RESEARCH ARTICLE Morphological peculiarities of fruits of the rare species Iris halophila Pall, I. pumila L. and I. hungarica Waldst. et Kit.

Gryshko National Botanical Garden, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Timiryazevska str. 1, 01014 Kyiv, Ukraine; [email protected] Received: 27.01.2020 | Accepted: 23.05.2020 | Published: 30.06.2020 Abstract The objective of this study was to analyze the morphological structure and to reveal common and distinguishing features of the fruit in rare steppe species Iris halophila, I. pumila and I. hungarica introduced in conditions of meadow-steppe cultural phytocenosis in the M.M. Gryshko National Botanical Garden, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (NBG). Material and methods. Fruits of I. halophila, I. pumila and I. hungarica were collected on the botanical- geographical plot “Steppes of Ukraine” of NBG during 2015–2019. Fruit parameters were measured using a regular ruler. Morphological terms are provided, according to Artyushenko & Fedorov (1986). Colors were determined by Bondartsev’s (1954) scale. Results. In all analyzed species, the fruit is a trimeric and trilocular loculicidal capsule with multi-seeded locules. This capsule is erect, straight, leathery, glabrous, opening by dehiscence from top to bottom along the dorsal veins of carpels. The morphological peculiarities of the fruits, which may be additional diagnostic characters of these species, are established. In particular, in I. halophila capsule is cylindrical, with the upper part elongated into the apical spout (long, thin, bent to the side).

  • Cappadocia Wildlife Tour Report Turkey Botanical Birdwatching
    Hatay to Cappadocia Flowers, Birds & Ancient Sites of Turkey A Greentours Trip Report 12th to 23rd May 2012 Led by Seda Soylu and Phil Benstead The following report is from the itinerary we did in 2012. The 2013 tour differs in that instead of visiting the Hatay region in 2013 we’ll be starting the tour in Konya and Kulu Golu in the centre of Anatolia and the rest of the tour will be done in reverse of the 2012 order. So the most relevant days are days 5-12 in this report, and these correspond to days 4-11 (but in reverse order!) in the 2013 itinerary. Daily report written by Phil Benstead and Seda Soylu Day 1 Saturday 12th May arrival We all converged on the airport at Istanbul by different routes, negotiating the visa buying process and the march across to the domestic terminal. The deciding game between Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe in the Turkish Championship took place in Istanbul during the evening and even the airport departure area was caught up in the excitement. Very atmospheric. We eventually all met up at the gate for our late night onward flight and then dozed through the short journey to Hatay and were soon being met by a smiling Seda and whisked off in the minibus to the hotel. Day 2 Sunday 13th May the road to Yayladağı A leisurely start to the day was required this morning after the late (early?) arrival at the hotel last night. Breakfasted we headed for the van and drove south towards Syria on the road to Yayladağ ı.

  • Karyological Studies on Iris Japonica Thunb. and Its Allies1) 2) by K
    180 Cytologia 10 Karyological Studies on Iris japonica Thunb. and Its Allies1) 2) By K. Yasui Tokyo Imperial University (With 8 text figures) Receic ed MTV 28, 1939 Introduction There are several karyological investigations on Iris japonica. KAZAO (1928) considered the sporophyte of this species as an auto triploid having 54 chromosomes. But SIMONET (1932, 1934) re ported I. japonica as a diploid plant with 34 chromosomes in its root-tip cells, and considered I. japonica var aphrodite as a hyper triploid and interpreted the chromosome constitution as 2n=51+3, the latter 3 chromosomes being considered as derived from 3 of 51 chromosomes in I. japonica by fragmentation which occurred att their median constrictions. The karyological investigation in I. japonica and the other 2 allied species, which were kindly put at my deposal by Dr. S. IMA MURA of Kyoto Imp. University, gave me some results different from those of the previous authors as is described below. Material and Method In the fixing of the root-tip cells both NAVASHIN's and LEWITSKY's solutions were used. When fixed in the latter, the chromosomes were found longer and slender than when fixed in the former solution, but there was no essential difference in the distribu tion of chromosomes in the equatorial plate. NEWTON'S gentian violet staining was generally adopted. Materials for the study of meiosis were fixed mostly with NAVASHIN'S fluid and stained with HEIDENHAIN'S iron-alum haematoxylin. Acetocarmine smears were also tried in the study of the pollen mother cells. Drawings were made with a camera lucida.

  • Flowering Plants of South Norwood Country Park
    Flowering Plants Of South Norwood Country Park Robert Spencer Introduction South Norwood Country Park relative to its size contains a wide range habitats and as a result a diverse range of plants can be found growing on site. Some of these plants are very conspicuous, growing in great abundance and filling the park with splashes of bright colour with a white period in early May largely as a result of the Cow Parsley, this is followed later in the year by a pink period consisting of mainly Willow herbs. Other plants to be observed are common easily recognisable flowers. However there are a great number of plants growing at South Norwood Country Park that are less well-known or harder to spot, and the casual observer would likely be surprised to learn that 363 species of flowering plants have so far been recorded growing in the park though this number includes invasive species and garden escapes. This report is an update of a report made in 2006, and though the site has changed in the intervening years the management and fundamental nature of the park remains the same. Some plants have diminished and some have flourished and the high level of diversity is still present. Many of these plants are important to other wildlife particularly in their relationship to invertebrate pollinators, and some of these important interactions are referenced in this report. With so many species on the plant list there is a restriction on how much information is given for each species, with some particularly rare or previously observed but now absent plants not included though they appear in the index at the back of the report including when they were last observed.

Plants of the genus Iris L. can be used in gardening, for landscaping, flower bed decoration, including early in spring, it is also used to create floristic compositions and for distillation by certain dates. These are some of the most beautiful bulbous plants that adorn shade compositions that have high decorative qualities, in some regions of the country which is a rare species. The word “Iris” in translation from Greek means “rainbow”. A plant whose flower embodies the beautiful natural phenomenon-a rainbow. Plants of the genus Iris L. can multiply both by seeds and vegetative. The vegetative way is traditional for them. reproduction. Numerous techniques are being developed to accelerate the rate of vegetative reproduction. But, the possibilities of vegetative breeding is still limited. Features of seed reproduction These cultures are poorly studied and require further study. The coefficient of seed reproduction of plants is several times higher than the vegetative one. Also, with seed reproduction, it is possible to combine various signs and *Corresponding author: Tashpulatov in consequence of obtaining hybrids.
