Steele, K.P. and Wojciechowski, M.F. (2003). Phylogenetic analyses of tribes Trifolieae and Vicieae, based on sequences of the plastid gene, matK (Papilionoideae: Leguminosae). In: B.B.

PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSES OF TRIBES TRIFOLIEAE AND VICIEAE, BASED ON SEQUENCES OF THE PLASTID GENE matK (PAPILIONOIDEAE: LEGUMINOSAE) KELLY P. STEELE1* AND MARTIN F. WOJCIECHOWSKI2 1 Department of Applied Biological Sciences, Arizona State University East, Mesa, AZ85212, USA 2 Department of Plant Biology, Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ85287, USA Abstract Tribes Trifolieae and Vicieae along with Cicereae and Galega (Galegeae) form a monophyletic group that has been designated informally as the “vicioid clade”. There is good support from analyses of various molecular data for the clade itself, but relationships of genera within the clade are not fully understood nor has monophyly of the tribes and genera been fully tested. Sequences of the plastid gene matK from 84 members of the vicioid clade were analysed using maximum parsimony. Results presented here provide strong support for a monophyletic Vicieae that includes Vicia, Lathyrus, Pisum and Lens. Vicia is paraphyletic with regard to other genera of Vicieae, but there is support for monophyletic groups of species of Vicia. Pisum is sister to a monophyletic Lathyrus, and Lens is sister to a small group of species of Vicia. A monophyletic Trifolium is sister to the Vicieae, and together they form a moderately supported monophyletic group. Similarly, a monophyletic Ononis is sister to genera of tribe Trifolieae including Medicago, Trigonella and Melilotus. -

The current review highlighted the chemical constituents and pharmacological effects of Melilotus officinalis. Keywords: chemical constituents, pharmacology, Melilotus officinalis. I. INTRODUCTION: In the last few decades there has been an exponential growth in the field of herbal medicine. It is getting popularized in developing and developed countries owing to its natural origin and lesser side effects. Plants generally produce many secondary metabolites which are bio-synthetically derived from primary metabolites and constitute an important source of chemicals which are used as pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, flavours, fragrances, colours, biopesticides and food additives(1-35).

Genetic Characterization of Selected Trifolium Species As Revealed By
Plant Science 170 (2006) 859–866 www.elsevier.com/locate/plantsci Genetic characterization of selected Trifolium species as revealed by nuclear DNA content and ITS rDNA region analysis Liliana Vizˇintin, Branka Javornik, Borut Bohanec * University of Ljubljana, Biotechnical Faculty, Jamnikarjeva 101, 1111 Ljubljana, Slovenia Received 29 September 2005; received in revised form 12 December 2005; accepted 12 December 2005 Available online 18 January 2006 Abstract Thirty-one clover species with significant agronomic value, originating from Eurasia, Africa and America, were analyzed to reveal their nuclear DNA content and propidium iodide/4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (PI/DAPI) ratio. Chromosome numbers of the same accessions were determined for calculation of 1Cx genome size values, and the relationships between species were studied based on ITS-rDNA analysis. The nuclear DNA content of the majority of species was determined for the first time and revealed large variations among investigated species. The somatic nuclear DNA content ranged from 0.688 pg (T. ligusticum) to 7.375 pg (T. burchellianum), exhibiting a 10.7-fold difference. Since polyploidy is characteristic of several species of the genus Trifolium, 1Cx values provided the most informative measure of interspecific DNA content variation. Analysis of nuclear DNA content based on 1Cx-values within the Lotoidea section revealed that the basic genome size values of six African and American species were twice those of the six Eurasian species of the same section. Measurements of nuclear DNA content using propidium iodide/ DAPI staining highly correlated (r = 0.99), the average PI/DAPI ratio of 29 species was 1.043. Clustering based on ITS polymorphisms showed high relationship with botanical sections with the only exemption in the section Lotoidea, which was divided mainly according to its origin (American, African or Eurasian). -
White Sweetclover Melilotus Albus Medik
MN NWAC Risk Common Name Latin Name (Full USDA Nomenclature) Assessment Worksheet (04-2017) White Sweetclover Melilotus albus Medik. (from itis.gov) (synonyms: Melilotus alba Medik.) USDA Plants considers Melilotus albus to be part of Melilotus officinalis) Original Reviewer: Laura Van Riper Affiliation/Organization: Minnesota Original Review: (07/25/2017) Department of Natural Resources Species Description: • Sweetclover is being evaluated due to its invasiveness in natural areas. • Sweetclover invades and degrades native grasslands by overtopping and shading native sun-loving plants thereby reducing diversity. It grows abundantly on disturbed lands, roadsides and abandoned fields. • Native to Europe it was brought to the U.S. in the late 1600s and still used today as a forage crop and soil enhancer predominantly in the Great Plains and Upper Midwest. It is also popular with bee keepers. • Biennial herbaceous plant. First year plants do not bloom. Second year plants grow 3 - 7' high and are bush-like with white flowers. • Similar in appearance to yellow sweetclover (Melilotus officinalis). Yellow sweetclover has yellow flowers. • For more information see the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) sweetclover website or the Wisconsin DNR white sweetclover website.

SB133 1906 Alfalfa Seed: Its Adulterants, Substitutes, And
Alfalfa Seed: Its Adulterants, Substitutes and Impurities, and their Detection. No forage crop in the West is of as great and steadily growing importance to the agricultural interests as Medicago sativa, known in Europe as lucerne, and in America as alfalfa. The immense value of the alfalfa acreage to Kansas, and the high price of the seed, make it imperative that every precaution be taken to insure the purity of the commercial seed, and that every assistance pos- sible in this regard be rendered to the farmers of the State and to the seed merchants doing business in the West. Especially has this necessity been rendered evident within the last two years. Within this period, there has come to the attention of the Botanical Department of the Experiment Station, the fact of the presence, in numerous cases and sometimes in considerable quantities, of adulterants, substitutes and impurities which, from the close re- semblance of the spurious seeds to those of alfalfa, render them indistinguishable from the latter, to the eye of any average buyer. This introduction of spurious seed has, as a matter of fact, in some striking instances, gone so far as to amount to the total and com- plete substitution of a different species. The chief purpose and intent of this bulletin is to make as clear as possible the differ- ences which exist to distinguish alfalfa seed from its most fre- quently used adulterants and substitutes. The plant alfalfa belongs to the large botanical genus, Medicago, numbering some fifty species of annual or perennial herbaceous or occasionally woody plants which grow over central and south- ern Europe, and especially abundantly in the Mediterranean lit- toral, as also in Central and Farther Asia, and the Cape of Good Hope region. -
