    Dubravka Dujmović Purgar i sur.; Rasprostranjenost roda Rubus u Hrvatskoj Rasprostranjenost roda Rubus u Hrvatskoj Distribution of genus Rubus in Croatia Dubravka Dujmović Purgar, Zoran Šindrak, Sandra Voća, Ivica Šnajder, Aleš Vokurka, Boris Duralija SAŽETAK Zahvaljujući klimatskim uvjetima i zemljopisnom položaju, Hrvatska flora je bogata biljnim vrstama. Među njima postoji velik broj samoniklih voćnih vrsta, zanimljivih zbog natprosječne kakvoće svojih plodova. Podaci iz postojeće literature kao i oni vlastitih istraživanja uspoređeni su s popisom svojti rasprostranjenih u Europi. Zbog jednostavnog međuvrsnog križanja svojti roda Rubus, postoji velika genetska raznolikost unutar roda koja je u prošlosti korištena za izravni odabir iz prirodnih populacija i stvaranje brojnih sorti. Neke od tih vrsta mogu se rabiti i u budućim oplemenjivačkim programima. Ključne riječi: Rubus, flora, prirodne populacije, genetska raznolikost, Hrvatska ABSTRACT Thanks to its climatic conditions and geographic location, Croatian flora is rich in plant species. Among existing plants there is a distinct number of autochthonous edible fruit species interesting for their outstanding fruit quality. Data from existing Croatian literature and data from our own investigations were compared with the list of Rubus spp. plant taxa that grow in Europe. Easy interspecific hybridization of Rubus species is responsible for high genetic variety of Rubus spp., which was in the past used for direct selection in natural populations and breeding of various cultivars all over the world. It could also be used in future fruit breeding programmes, practically without limitations. Key words: Rubus, flora, natural populations, genetic variety, Croatia UVOD Vaskularna flora Hrvatske je među bogatijima u Europi s 5593 vrste koje su rasprostranjene u svim njenim regijama (Nikolić 2006).

Leaves Mirosława Chwil*, Mikołaj Kostryco Mirosława Chwil* Department of Botany, University of Life Sciences in Lublin, Akademicka 15, 20-950 Lublin, Poland, e - mail: [email protected] *Mirosława Chwil - Corresponding author Mikołaj Kostryco Department of Botany, University of Life Sciences in Lublin, Akademicka 15, 20-950 Lublin, Poland, e - mail: [email protected] Abstract: Leaves of Rubus idaeus are a raw material, ingredients of herbal blend and a source of antioxidants. There are no data concerning histochemistry of trichomes and little is known about the leaves structure of this species. The aim of this study was to determine the histochemistry of active compounds and the structure of glandular trichomes, micromorphology, anatomy and ultrastructure of leaves as well as content of elements. To determine the histochemistry of glandular trichomes different chemical compounds were used. The leaves structure was analysed using light, scanning, and transmission electron microscopes. The content of elements was determined with atomic absorption spectrometry and the microanalysis of the epidermis ultrastructure was carried out with transmission electron microscope equipped with a digital X-ray analyser. In glandular trichomes: polyphenols, terpenes, lipids, proteins, and carbohydrates were identified. The main elements in the ultrastructure of the epidermis were: Na, S, Ca, Mg, B, Mo, and Se. In dry matter of leaves K, Mg, Ca, P, and Fe were dominant. Infusions from leaves are safe for health in terms of the Cd and Pb concentrations.

  • F3.1B Temperate Rubus Scrub
    European Red List of Habitats - Heathland Habitat Group F3.1b Temperate Rubus scrub Summary This habitat comprises deciduous or sometimes evergreen subscrub dominated by various Rubus spp. mostly in the Atlantic and subatlantic regions, and elsewhere in locally cool conditions. It develops in ungrazed open landscapes and forest clear-cuts as part of succession, but can be a more or less persistent features of cultural landscapes such as forest margins, as hedgerows and along road verges. There is great genetic diversity among the Rubus itself (including many endemics) and the associated floras can be varied. The most important threats are related to intensification of the rural landscape, like removal of hedges, eutrophication and spread of invasive species and the habitat is replaced by scrub and forest in succession. Maintaining the diversity and dynamism of lowland landscapes is essential for conservation. Synthesis The data for assessment of trends in extent cover less than 40% of the area of the type. Although the provided data for some of the Red List criteria indicate a Least Concern status for the habitat, the overall conclusion is Data Deficient, because of the many knowledge gaps, especially for trends in quantity. Overall Category & Criteria EU 28 EU 28+ Red List Category Red List Criteria Red List Category Red List Criteria Data Deficient - Data Deficient - Sub-habitat types that may require further examination As the species composition differs largely in different regions, due to many regional endemic Rubus species, many different subhabitats may be distinguished that need further examination. In general relatively stable, "old" stands (like in forest edges or stands on former old forest localities) and stands are relatively richer in endemics than more recently developed stands developing in heathlands.

  • Retamoid Scrubs of the Cytisetea Scopario-Striati in the Netherlands: a New Approach to Classify Marginal Associations

Schaminée2 1Central Government Real Estate Agency, Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations, P.O. Box 47, 6700 AA Wageningen, The Netherlands; 2Alterra-WUR, Wageningen University and Research, P.O. Box 47, 6700 AA Wageningen, The Netherlands *Corresponding author, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract Marginal associations, i.e. floristically impoverished associations at the margin of the distribution area of a higher syntaxon, form a problem in vegetation classification, because true character species are lacking. We propose a new approach for the classification of such marginal associations, making use of the notion of 'chorological tension zones'. In the absence of true character species, the species from other syntaxa of the same formation can be used as such. Our proposal is to use the species group from every formation-true class only once within every marginal alliance, to limit the number of possi- ble marginal associations. This approach is illustrated in a classification of the retamoid thickets in the Netherlands. On the basis of a numerical-subjective classification of the relevant species in the scrub layer and the evaluation of relevant literature, we conclude that the broom and gorse thickets in the Netherlands can be assigned to the Cytisetea scopario-striati Rivas-Mart.

  • Vegetation Classification As a Mirror of Evolution? Thoughts on the Syntaxonomy and Management of Bramble Scrubs of the Prunetalia (Rhamno-Prunetea)
    Biologia (2019) 74:395–404 https://doi.org/10.2478/s11756-019-00199-x ORIGINAL ARTICLE Vegetation classification as a mirror of evolution? Thoughts on the syntaxonomy and management of bramble scrubs of the Prunetalia (Rhamno-Prunetea) Rense Haveman1,2 & Iris de Ronde1 Received: 3 October 2018 /Accepted: 25 January 2019 /Published online: 15 March 2019 # The Author(s) 2019 Abstract In Germany and the Netherlands, many bramble scrub associations are distinguished on the basis of the occurrence of Rubus species. The associations belonging to the Prunetalia spinosae Tüxen 1952 are usually assigned to the Pruno-Rubion radulae Weber Osnabr Naturwiss Mitt 3:143–150, 1974, but published tables show inconsistencies in the occurrence of alliance character species. In this paper, we compare synoptic tables from different sources from the Netherlands and Germany. From this comparison, it is concluded that the associations can be divided over two alliances, the Pruno-Rubion radulae in central Europe, and the Pruno-Rubion sprengelii Weber Osnabr Naturwiss Mitt 3:143–150, 1974 in northwest Europe (excluding the UK). The differential species of both these alliances coincide to a considerable degree with the indicator species of the phyto- geographical Rubus territories as defined by Haveman et al. (J Biogeogr 43:1360-1371, 2016). As can be deduced from recent molecular studies (Sochor et al. Mol Phylogenet Evol 89:13-27, 2015), these territories have an evolutionary background. This is an effect of the unsaturated distribution areas of a large portion of the very young Rubus agamospecies. The same holds true for the two alliances: although they have a different ecology, we argue that their current distribution areas are not a reflection of this ecology, but both their ecology and distribution area are caused by different evolutionary developments.

The Rubus flora of northern Wielkopolska (Greater Poland) is not yet fully discovered, but the re- cent studies on the genus Rubus suggest that it is clearly not as rich as in case of southern Wielkopolska. The results of the field observations show that the area of the Durowo Forest District contains 14 representa- tives of the genus Rubus, out of which the presence of four taxa has already been reported and confirmed. Only Rubus czarnunensis, species endemic to Poland and mentioned in this area in the early 20th century, was not rediscovered. The presence of two species, previously unknown in this area, R. nemoralis and R. seeber­ gensis, have shifted their range limits by 16 km and 30 km to the north, respectively.

A select number of these have become globally important domesticated crops, including maize, beans, cotton, and sunflower. Many other native and also naturalized species have potential for use, either directly or as genetic resources for breeding agricultural crops. However, despite increasing recognition of their potential value, deficiencies in information, conservation, and access to the diversity in these plants hinder their further use.

  • Rare Plant Register
    1 BSBI RARE PLANT REGISTER Berkshire & South Oxfordshire V.C. 22 MICHAEL J. CRAWLEY FRS UPDATED APRIL 2005 2 Symbols and conventions The Latin binomial (from Stace, 1997) appears on the left of the first line in bold, followed by the authority in Roman font and the English Name in italics. Names on subsequent lines in Roman font are synonyms (including names that appear in Druce’s (1897) or Bowen’s (1964) Flora of Berkshire that are different from the name of the same species in Stace). At the right hand side of the first line is a set of symbols showing - status (if non-native) - growth form - flowering time - trend in abundance (if any) The status is one of three categories: if the plant arrived in Britain after the last ice age without the direct help of humans it is defined as a native, and there is no symbol in this position. If the archaeological or documentary evidence indicates that a plant was brought to Berkshire intentionally of unintentionally by people, then that species is an alien. The alien species are in two categories ● neophytes ○ archaeophytes Neophytes are aliens that were introduced by people in recent times (post-1500 by convention) and for which we typically have precise dates for their first British and first Berkshire records. Neophytes may be naturalized (forming self-replacing populations) or casual (relying on repeated introduction). Archaeophytes are naturalized aliens that were carried about by people in pre-historic times, either intentionally for their utility, or unintentionally as contaminants of crop seeds. Archaeophytes were typically classified as natives in older floras.
