It is not intended to cover conditional releases. 2.1 Give a short summary statement of the purpose of this application to be used on ERMA New Zealand’s public register – Maximum 255 characters (including spaces and punctuation) Briefly describe the organism(s) to be imported for release or released from containment and the purpose(s) for which you wish to release the organism(s). Note: An organism is „released‟ when it is not required to be held in a containment facility registered by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry. Once released it is no longer considered a new organism. >Approval is sought by Forest Research to release the new organism Cleopus japonicus Wingelmüller (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) from containment. This leaf-feeding weevil has been identified as one of several insect species that show promise as biological control agents for the increasingly serious weed buddleia (Buddleja davidii). 2.2 Provide a brief description of the background and aims of the proposal suitable for lay readers Describe in less than one page the rationale for the proposal to release these organisms, including the potential use for the organism(s), so that people not directly connected with the application can understand the reasons for the release. >Buddleia (scientific name Buddleja davidii Franchet) is a garden escape that is spreading in New Zealand, and is an environmental and economic threat. It is the most serious weed of new pine plantations in eastern central North Island, and its impact is likely to spread. It germinates and grows better on gravely areas than any of its native competitors. As a result, it is pushing out the flora and fauna of stream beds and margins in places such as Te Urewera National Park, and even threatens iconic lakeside and river landscapes around Queenstown. In most places buddleia is too far out of control for conventional control measures to be practical on their own. The leaf-feeding weevil Cleopus japonicus has been identified as the most promising of several insect species that could help to suppress damage from the weed biologically. The weevil is from China, where buddleia is its natural host plant. Buddleia leaf weevil was imported from China into containment at Rotorua in 1993, and its suitability for release has been under evaluation since then. All risks posed by the proposed release of the buddleia leaf weevil, including those of particular importance to Māori, have been identified and assessed. Experiments have been carried out in China and New Zealand to 20 Customhouse Quay, Cnr Waring Taylor & Customhouse Quay PO Box 131, Wellington Phone: 04-916 2426 Fax: 04-914 0433 Email: [email protected] Website: www.ermanz.govt.nz Application for approval to import for release or release FORM NOR from containment any new organism including a genetically modified organism but excluding conditional Page 5 release and rapid assessment, under section 34 of the Hazardous Substances and New Organisms Act 1996 estimate the range of plants on which this weevil can feed and lay eggs. These experiments showed that the weevil could attack other Buddleja species in New Zealand, but not B. salvifolia, a useful plant for bees. The studies also conclude that the risk to other environmentally and economically important plants in New Zealand from introducing the weevil is low.

  • Towards Resolving Lamiales Relationships
    Schäferhoff et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology 2010, 10:352 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/10/352 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Towards resolving Lamiales relationships: insights from rapidly evolving chloroplast sequences Bastian Schäferhoff1*, Andreas Fleischmann2, Eberhard Fischer3, Dirk C Albach4, Thomas Borsch5, Günther Heubl2, Kai F Müller1 Abstract Background: In the large angiosperm order Lamiales, a diverse array of highly specialized life strategies such as carnivory, parasitism, epiphytism, and desiccation tolerance occur, and some lineages possess drastically accelerated DNA substitutional rates or miniaturized genomes. However, understanding the evolution of these phenomena in the order, and clarifying borders of and relationships among lamialean families, has been hindered by largely unresolved trees in the past. Results: Our analysis of the rapidly evolving trnK/matK, trnL-F and rps16 chloroplast regions enabled us to infer more precise phylogenetic hypotheses for the Lamiales. Relationships among the nine first-branching families in the Lamiales tree are now resolved with very strong support. Subsequent to Plocospermataceae, a clade consisting of Carlemanniaceae plus Oleaceae branches, followed by Tetrachondraceae and a newly inferred clade composed of Gesneriaceae plus Calceolariaceae, which is also supported by morphological characters. Plantaginaceae (incl. Gratioleae) and Scrophulariaceae are well separated in the backbone grade; Lamiaceae and Verbenaceae appear in distant clades, while the recently described Linderniaceae are confirmed to be monophyletic and in an isolated position. Conclusions: Confidence about deep nodes of the Lamiales tree is an important step towards understanding the evolutionary diversification of a major clade of flowering plants. The degree of resolution obtained here now provides a first opportunity to discuss the evolution of morphological and biochemical traits in Lamiales.

Raja Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Background Buddleja asiatica is a deciduous shrub traditionally used as an antipyretic, antimalarial and abortifacient. The present study was designed to perform physicochemical standardization and to examine the presence of various phytoconstituents by phytochemical screening and gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy method. Methods Evaluation of organoleptic characters and physicochemical parameters were carried out according to WHO guidelines. Various extracts (petroleum ether, chloroform, ethyl acetate and methanol) were subjected to standard phytochemical screening methods. Different phytoconstituents in the extracts were analyzed by thin layer chromatography (TLC). Further, gas chromatography mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) study of ethanol extract was performed in Scion 436-GC Bruker instrument. Results The values of standardization parameters were found to be 19.25 ± 0.33% w/w, 07.36 ± 0.07 % w/w, 03.35 ± 0.06 % w/w, 25.75±1.13% w/w and 01.85± 1.12 % w/w for loss on drying, total ash, acid insoluble ash, water soluble extractive and swelling index respectively. In phytochemical screening, petroleum ether extract revealed the presence of saponins, steroids and terpenoids whereas chloroform extract confirmed the presence of alkaloids and saponins.

Payn • A. Paquette • J. A. Parrotta Received: 9 November 2011 / Accepted: 15 February 2013 / Published online: 13 March 2013 Ó Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2013 Abstract Nearly 4 % of the world’s forests are plantations, established to provide a variety of ecosystem services, principally timber and other wood products. In addition to such services, plantation forests provide direct and indirect benefits to biodiversity via the provision of forest habitat for a wide range of species, and by reducing negative impacts on natural forests by offsetting the need to extract resources. There is compelling evidence that climate change is directly affecting biodiversity in forests throughout the world. These impacts occur as a result of changes in temperature, rainfall, storm frequency and mag- nitude, fire frequency, and the frequency and magnitude of pest and disease outbreaks. However, in plantation forests it is not only the direct effects of climate change that will impact on biodiversity. Climate change will have strong indirect effects on biodiversity in plantation forests via changes in forest management actions that have been proposed to mitigate the effects of climate change on the productive capacity of plantations. These include changes in species selection (including use of species mixtures), rotation length, thinning, pruning, extraction of bioenergy feedstocks, and large scale climate change S. M.

Each original is also photographed in one exposure and is included in reduced form at the back of the book. Photographs included in the original manuscript have been reproduced xerographically in this copy. Higher quality 6” x 9” black and white photographic prints are available for any photographs or illustrations appearing in this copy for an additional charge. Contact UMI directly to order.
