The high similarity of species’ morphological characteristics complicates the identification accuracy, leading to potential risks in herbal efficacy and medical safety. In this study, we tested the applicability of four single loci, namely, rbcL, psbA-trnH, internal transcribed spacer (ITS), and ITS2, and their combinations as DNA barcodes to identify 37 Epimedium species on the basis of the analyses, including the success rates of PCR amplifications and sequencing, specific genetic divergence, distance-based method, and character-based method. Among them, character-based method showed the best applicability for identifying Epimedium species. As for the DNA barcodes, psbA-trnH showed the best performance among the four single loci with nine species being correctly differentiated.

Received: 24 June 2019; Accepted: 14 August 2019; Published: 16 August 2019 Abstract: Epimedium wushanense (Berberidaceae) is recorded as the source plant of Epimedii Wushanensis Folium in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. However, controversies exist on the classification of E. wushanense and its closely related species, namely, E. pseudowushanense, E. chlorandrum, E. mikinorii, E. ilicifolium, and E. borealiguizhouense. These species are often confused with one another because of their highly similar morphological characteristics. This confusion leads to misuse in the medicinal market threatening efficiency and safety. Here, we studied the plastid genomes of these Epimedium species.

R. China * Authors for correspondence: E-mails: [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract Three species of Epimedium (Berberidaceae), E. reticulatum, E. shuichengense and E. truncatum, are controversial based on flower characteristics. In this paper, the descriptions of their flower characters of these three species are revised based on our extensive studies in herbaria and observations in the field and cultivation. E. reticulatum is transferred from ser. Brachycerae to ser. Campanulatae, and E. shuichengense is recognized as a member of ser. Davidianae. The holotype and isotypes of E. reticulatum represent two species, E. reticulatum and E. membranaceum, and the type material of E. truncatum has been lost. Here we lectotypy E. reticulatum and neotypify E. truncatum. Key words: Epimedium, flower characters, revision, lectotype, neotype Introduction Epimedium Linnaeus (1753: 117) is the largest herbaceous genus of Berberidaceae, with about 58 species distributed disjunctly and very unevenly in temperate hilly or montane regions from Algeria in North Africa to Japan in Asia (Stearn 2002; Ying et al. 2011). China is the diversity center of Epimedium, and possesses about 48 species of the genus which are all endemics except Epimedium koreanum Nakai (1936: 63).

Native Americans, according Jeffersonia diphylla to author D. E. Moerman, used this plant to treat a range of ailments, from dropsy to urinary problems and diarrhea, and applied it as a poultice for sores and ulcers. .. WheretoSee Jeffersonia diphylla Twinleaf grows in moist, deciduous woods or on partially rocky slopes and outcrops, typically on calcareous substrates at relatively low elevations. It is native from western New York and southern Ontario to Minnesota and south to Alabama and Georgia. It is indigenous, but not common, over the western two-thirds of Virginia, but absent from the coastal plain. It flowers in late March and early April in Virginia southward and late April to early May in the more northern parts of its range. JEFFERSONIA DIPHYLLA ( L.)

Phylogeny and Wood Anatomy of Nandina
PHYLOGENY AND WOOD ANATOMY OF NANDINA by YU-FENGSHEN Nqndina is a monotypic genus of great botanical interest. Its only species, Nan dina domestica Tbunb. is an upright shrub of central China. It is commonly cultivated in China, known as Tien-chu (~~) or Heavenly bamboo, and is chiefly valued for its evergreen graceful foliage and its large panicle of bright red fruits. Taxonomically it is of disputable position. It is generally included in the Berberi daceae. Aside from a few herbaceous genera, such as Podophyllum, jejJersonia, Diphylleia, Achlys, the only woody genera of the family are Berberis, Mahonia, and Nandina. These genera are sometimes considered as constituting two subfamilies: Podophylloideae which comprise the above mentioned herbaceous genera and Berberi oideae, which comprise Berberis, Malwnia, Nandina as well as other herbaceous genera like Epimedium and Le01ltice (Rendle 1925). The two subfamilies are considered by some authers as representing distinct families (Kumazawa 1930, 1938). Berberis and Mahonia are closely related. Actually they differ from each other only in the leaves being always simple in the former and simple pinnate in the latter. Some authors express the opinion that the two should be treated as a single genus. Among all berberidaceous genera, the genus Nandina is .generally considered as deviate farthest phylogenetically. The aerial stem of this plant elongates monopodially until it terminates in as inflorescence, producing two to four foliar and one to three scales each year. As the monopodial stem terminates in an inflorescence, the axillary bud elongates to form a new axis which in turn terminates in an inflorescence in the following year.

An Overview of Epimedium
Epimedium ‘Amber Queen’ is one of the new generation of floriferous hybrids This increased dramatically to 54 in the updated edition (Stearn 2002) that he completed just before his death in 2001. Even as late as the early 1990s only a handful of the known species were in cultivation. Recently introduced species Few genera of plants have seen such a dramatic increase in new species, primarily thanks to the work of Mikinori Ogisu of Japan and Darrell Probst of Massachusetts. Most of the Epimedium species discovered and introduced in the 1990s were due to the work of the tireless Ogisu. His discoveries include E. campanul atum, E. chlorand rum, E. dolichostemon, E. fangii, E. flavum, E. franchetii, E. ilicifol ium, E. latisepalum, E. ogisui, E. mikinorii, E. rhizomatosum and previously named species that were not in culti vation such as E. brevicornu, E. ecalcarat um, E. fargesii, E. lish ihchenii, E. pauciflorum and E. platypetalum. Probst’s introduct ions include An stated unless Nursery, Plant Delights All photographs: E. brachyrrhizum, E. dewuense, E. epsteinii, E. myria nthum and the previously described E. sutchuenense. overview Many yet to be published species from his work are in the pipeline.
