Although this year has thrown many obstacles our way, we feel that the “show must go on.” In response to the COVID-19 situation, this year will look a little different. For the safety of our members and our customers, this year will be an online pre-order only sale. Our mission stays the same: to support our community’s green spaces, and to educate our community in the areas of gardening, horticulture, conservation, and related topics. GCH members serve as volunteers, and our profits from the Bulb Mart are given back to WELCOME the community in support of our mission. In the last fifteen years, we have given back over $3.5 million in grants to the community!

Chapter 1: Introductio
CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Alpinia is a genus of over 250 species belonging to the family Zingiberaceae (Larsen et al.,1999). Most members of the genus are found in subtropical and tropical rain forests of Asia, Australia and Pacific Islands (Wu and Larsen, 2000; Smith, 1990). Some members of the genus are well known for ethnomedicinal importance, for example Alpinia mutica and Alpinia nutans while some are also utilised as spices, for example, Alpinia galanga (Larsen et al., 1999; Valkenburg and Bunyapraphatsara, 2001). Many botanists have described and recorded Alpinia species notably Roxburgh (1810), Schumann (1904), Ridley (1924), Holttum (1950) and Smith (1990). Currently, botanists refer to Smith’s (1990) infrageneric classification. In recent years, several researchers used molecular data to explore phylogenetic relationships within the genus Alpinia (Rangsiruji et al., 2000a; b and Kress et al., 2002; 2005a). However, neither the results of Rangsiruji et al. (2000a; b) nor Kress et al. (2005a) supported the classification of Alpinia proposed by Smith (1990). The phylogenetic analysis of Malaysian Alpinia is unsatisfactory because only two species from Malaysia were studied by Rangsiruji et al. (2000 a; b) and Kress et al. (2005a) namely Alpinia javanica and Alpinia rafflesiana although 25 species had been previously recorded in Peninsular Malaysia (Holtumm, 1950 and Lim, 2004; 2007). The Peninsular Malaysian Alpinia species were grouped under Smith’s 1990 section Alpinia (subsection Catimbium, Alpinia, Presleia and Cenolophon) and section Allughas (subsection Strobidia, Odontychium and Allughas) in Fig. 1.1. 1 Figure 1.1 Infrageneric classification of Alpinia adapted from Smith (1990). Insert shows Peninsular Malaysian species recorded by Holttum (1950).

Unlike current drugs, medicinal plants can have preventive and protective effects with less side effects. Given the great number of bioactive substances, plants from the Zingiberaceae Family have medicinal potential and currently are widely studied regarding its anti-Alzheimer's disease effects. The objective of this study was to provide an overview of advances in phytochemical composition studies, in vitro and in vivo pharmacological studies, and toxicological effects of the Zingiberaceae Family on Alzheimer's disease.

Forest Rehabilitation, Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services in Java, Indonesia

Without explicit authorisation, reproduction is only allowed in so far it is permitted by law or by agreement with a collecting society. PhD Thesis in Applied Ecology no (17) ISBN printed version: 978-82-8380-141-5 ISBN digital version: 978-82-8380-142-2 ISSN printed version: 1894-6127 ISSN online version: 2464-1286 Abstract Planting trees in deforested areas is regarded as important to increase the provision of ecosystem services, and enhancing biodiversity. Planting a desired tree species is termed rehabilitation. Biodiversity is the basis of ecosystem services, and as a rule, but not always, the two co-vary. The focus of forest restoration is changing from the provision of timber to a wider provisioning of different species of timber, various non-timber forest products and flood and erosion control. Biodiversity often increases with such wide-ranging service provision, although the resulting restored ecosystems do not include all species of primary forests. In Java, Indonesia, forests have been mainly rehabilitated by planting monocultures of exotic teak, Tectona grandis L.f., or mahogany, Swietenia macrophylla King. In this thesis, I investigate the effects of such rehabilitation on biodiversity components and ecosystem services and their changes over time since rehabilitation. Understory species richness, density, Shannon-Wiener diversity index, and the proportion of native plants, did not differ between the planted stand types or between them and the native forests.

Results of the study will provide baseline information for the local Government to develop management strategies and policies for the conservation of the forest resources, including the useful plants. The data was gathered through observation, interviews and focused group discussion with people which is strongly influenced in the communities. Data gathered included indigenous knowledge of plant use and others indigenous practices and perceptions pertaining to the use and management of the forest. There are 90 plant species belonging to 38 families that where identified that are used by the local communities primarily for food and beverages. Of which, 21 species that belong to Arecaceae are frequently used by the local communities. The plant parts utilized are usually the fruits and leaves.

Reinstatement and Revision of the Genus Adelmeria (Zingiberaceae) Endemic to the Philippines Rudolph Valentino A
TAXON 2019 Docot & al. • Reinstatement and revision of Adelmeria SYSTEMATICS AND PHYLOGENY Reinstatement and revision of the genus Adelmeria (Zingiberaceae) endemic to the Philippines Rudolph Valentino A. Docot,1,4 Cecilia I. Banag1,2,3 & Axel Dalberg Poulsen5 1 The Graduate School, Thomas Aquinas Research Center, University of Santo Tomas, España Boulevard, Sampaloc, Manila 1008, Philippines 2 Department of Biological Sciences, College of Science, Thomas Aquinas Research Center, University of Santo Tomas, España Boulevard, Sampaloc, Manila 1008, Philippines 3 Research Center for the Natural and Applied Sciences, Thomas Aquinas Research Center, University of Santo Tomas, España Boulevard, Sampaloc, Manila 1008, Philippines 4 Department of Biological Sciences, Institute of Art and Sciences, Far Eastern University, Nicanor Reyes Sr. Street, Sampaloc, Manila 1015, Philippines 5 Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, 20A Inverleith Row, Edinburgh EH3 5LR, Scotland, U.K. Address for correspondence: Rudolph Valentino A. Docot, [email protected] DOI https://doi.org/10.1002/tax.12071 Abstract In 1909, Ridley published Adelmeria characterized by its congested terminal inflorescence with large persistent floral bracts. All five species at some point placed in Adelmeria were synonymized in Alpinia by Loesener and subsequent authors. Several phylo- genetic studies revealed that Alpinia is highly polyphyletic, suggesting that it should be split into several genera. In the present study, we sampled all five species initially placed in Adelmeria plus additional ones with a similar morphology. The combined analysis of the ITS and trnK/matK regions showed that these species formed a strongly supported monophyletic group inside the Alpinia eubractea clade of the tribe Alpinieae. Although not completely diagnostic, the following morphological characters separate Adelmeria from most of the species currently inside the Alpinia eubractea clade: bilobed ligules; congested inflorescences; utricular bracteoles; sessile flowers; crestless anthers; obovoid fruits.
