However, where acknowledging these two species as separate (following Irwin and Barneby 1982), in terms of their agronomic importance and control, there is probably little difference between S. obtusifolia and S. tora, and both are included together for the purpose of this datasheet. Thus, whereas S. tora (and C. tora) are included here as non-preferred scientific names, they are not strictly synonyms. Binggeli updated 2005 Crop Protection Compendium - Senna obtusifolia (L.)

    Plant Pathology Circular No. 171 Fla. Dept. Agr. & Consumer Serv. October 1976 Division of Plant Industry CERCOSPORA LEAF SPOT OF CRAPE MYRTLE, LAGERSTROEMIA INDICA S. A. Alfieri, Jr. Crape myrtle, Lagerstroemia indica L., is a deciduous shrub, attaining a height of 10 to 20 ft, with smooth brown bark and white, pink, or red flowers occurring in clusters. It is found as an introduction in the American tropics and in the southeastern United States but is native to Asia and northern Australia. The genus Lagerstroemia contains approximately 30 species in south and east Asia and Australia (1). Cercospora lythracearum Heald & Wolf is the causal fungus of a leaf spot on Lager- stroemia indica (2,3). In Florida the leaf spot disease was severe in 1976, es- pecially on the pink-flowering variety 'Near East'. Of the 3 flowering varieties Fig. 1. Cercospora leaf spot of crape myrtle beginning as tiny flecks on lower surface of 4 uppermost leaves and large irregular, brown spots coalescing and causing distortion of the larger lower leaves on the right. Contribution No. 422, Bureau of Plant Pathology, P. O. Box 1269, Gainesville, FL 32602. utilized in landscape plantings in Gainesville, it was noted that 'Near East' was the most susceptible in terms of greatest leaf infection and defoliation. The red or lavender variety was less susceptible, and the white flowering variety or 'Far East' least susceptible with only a very few Cercospora lesions on the leaves. Heavy infections with Cercospora can cause severe defoliation with a debilitating effect on the plant. SYMPTOMS. The leaf spots incited by Cercospora lythracearum are distinct, dark brown, irregular, and up to 5 mm in diameter with no yellow margin.

  • Crapemyrtle Scientific Name: Lagerstroemia Indica Order
    Common Name: Crapemyrtle Scientific Name: Lagerstroemia indica Order: Myrtales Family: Lythraceae Description Crapemyrtle is a popular deciduous ornamental plant chosen for its thin, delicate, crinkled petals, which bloom quite largely in pinnacles and come in shades of white, purple, lilac, pink, and (true) red. The bark of this favorable woody plant has a smooth texture, and is the base of beautiful thick foliage composed of leaf blades measuring from 2-4 inches in length in opposite arrangement and pinnate venation. They are oval shaped and green during the summer and change to orange, red, and yellow in fall months. Crapemyrtle produces a small fruit, less than .5 inches, which is hard, tan/brown, and round in shape. Growth Habit Crapemyrtles can be used as a shrub or a small tree. They can come in a variety of sizes from 18 inches to around 30 feet. Hardiness Zone(s) Crapemyrtle can grow in the USDA zones 7 through 9. It is native to southern China, Japan, and Korea, but has been introduced mainly to the southern United States. They need plenty of heat to bloom, thus most start blooming between the middle of May and early June when the weather is consistently warm, flowering for 90-120 days. Culture Crapemyrtles require full sun, at least 8 hours of sun a day, to grow to their best potential. They are heat tolerant, and bloom well in the summer heat, and continue into fall. As well as being heat tolerant, they are also drought resistant, growing best in moist, well-drained soil. Overwatering is often detrimental to the crapemyrtle, especially when planted in the summer.

  • Morphology and Vascular Anatomy of the Flower of Lagerstroemia Indica L
    © Landesmuseum für Kärnten; download www.landesmuseum.ktn.gv.at/wulfenia; www.biologiezentrum.at Wulfenia 15 (2008): 51–62 Mitteilungen des Kärntner Botanikzentrums Klagenfurt Morphology and vascular anatomy of the fl ower of Lagerstroemia indica L. (Lythraceae) with some phylogenetic implications Anastasiya Odintsova Summary: The main patterns of the fl oral vascular system and the structure of the syncarpous gynoecium of one of the most primitive members of Lythraceae, Lagerstroemia indica, have been studied. The vascular system of the fl ower consists of a vascular cylinder, in which consequently closed gaps with diverged traces to fl oral organs or composed vascular stands appear. The histological diff erentiation and vascular anatomy confi rm the prevalence of appendicular features in the fl oral tube of Lagerstroemia indica. The syncarpous gynoecium of Lagerstroemia indica is composed of fertile synascidiate and symplicate structural zones without an apocarpous zone. The most characteristic features of the gynoecium are a secretory epidermis on a massive placenta and on incomplete septa, prominent dorsal ridges inside the locules, and continuation of septal bundles into the style. Keywords: Lagerstroemia indica, Lythraceae, Myrtales, fl ower morphology, vascular anatomy, hypanthium, gynoecium Lythraceae, with 31 genera and 585 species, the third largest family of the Myrtales, are distributed worldwide and show a relatively great range of morphological variation (Conti et al. 1997). It is the only non-monotypic family within Myrtales with a superior ovary (Eichler 1878) and a multicellular archesporium in ovule (Tobe & Raven 1983) – both rather primitive characters for Myrtales. In contrast to most families of the Myrtales, in Lythraceae developmental studies of the fl owers are rare (Cheung & Sattler 1967; Ronse Decraene & Smets 1991), and vascular-anatomical data are incomplete: they concern certain problems of comparative fl oral morphology, e.g.

Lagerstroemia (crape myrtle) are famous ornamental plants with large pyramidal racemes, long flower duration, and diverse colors. However, little is known about the genetic structure and diversity of germplasm in Lagerstroemia. We genotyped 81 L. indica cultivars, five other species ofLagerstroemia , and 10 interspecific hybrids using 30 simple sequence repeat markers; 275 alleles were generated with a mean of nine alleles per locus. The mean polymorphism information content value, a measure of gene diversity, was 0.63, with a range from 0.25 to 0.86. The mean observed heterozygosity (0.51) tended to be lower than the mean expected heterozygosity (0.67). The mean F-statistics (FST, FIS, and FIT) were 0.05, 0.20, and 0.24, respectively, indicating a high level of genetic variation among cultivars. Clustering analysis based on genetic distance divided the 96 genotypes into three distinct groups, which corresponded with their genetic backgrounds and geographic regions.

  • Some Botanical Highlights in the Gardens at the Moment
    Some botanical highlights in the Gardens at the moment The numbers refer to the gardens as shown on your map. There is plenty of colour in the Garden this month but our flagship plants, which are at their very best, are the giant Echiums. You will notice them throughout the Garden but the best show is in the Mediterranean Garden (10). Our Echiums are endemic plants from Macronesia, the groups of islands in the north Atlantic off the coast of Europe and north Africa. Giant Echiums (Echium pinnianum) have impressive towering blue spires of flowers. They come from the Canary Islands where they grow in the native laurel forests and are endangered by habitat loss. There are many species of woody Echium on the Canaries, often confined to single islands or isolated mountain tops. At one time we grew many different species in the Garden but they have a tendency to hybridise with each other. The cold weather in March of this year killed off most of the tender species and we are left with a hybrid swarm of plants with flower colours varying from pale blue, bright blue, mauve and pink. Some are single stemmed and others form branched woody plants. This explains why, if you look closely, you will see a range of flower colour and growth form in the plants. Meanwhile, here are some other plants to look out for on your tour of the Garden. There is plenty of colour in the Garden at the moment. Just after passing through the Fig Pergola, if you turn right and walk to the commemorative seating area, you will find an unusual shrub in flower bearing yellow pom-pom flowers.

  • Laurisilva of Madeira Portugal
    LAURISILVA OF MADEIRA PORTUGAL The Laurisilva of Madeira is the largest surviving relict of a virtually extinct laurel forest type once widespread in Europe. It is still 90% primary forest and is a centre of plant diversity, containing a unique suite of rare and relict plants and animals, especially endemic bryophytes, ferns, vascular plants, animals such as the Madeiran long-toed pigeon and a very rich invertebrate fauna. COUNTRY Portugal NAME Laurisilva of Madeira NATURAL WORLD HERITAGE SITE 1999: Inscribed on the World Heritage List under Natural Criteria ix and x. STATEMENT OF OUTSTANDING UNIVERSAL VALUE The UNESCO World Heritage Committee adopted the following Statement of Outstanding Universal Value at the time of inscription: Brief Synthesis The Laurisilva of Madeira, within the Parque Natural da Madeira (Madeira Natural Park) conserves the largest surviving area of primary laurel forest or "laurisilva", a vegetation type that is now confined to the Azores, Madeira and the Canary Islands. These forests display a wealth of ecological niches, intact ecosystem processes, and play a predominant role in maintaining the hydrological balance on the Island of Madeira. The property has great importance for biodiversity conservation with at least 76 vascular plant species endemic to Madeira occurring in the property, together with a high number of endemic invertebrates and two endemic birds including the emblematic Madeiran Laurel Pigeon. Criterion (ix): The Laurisilva of Madeira is an outstanding relict of a previously widespread laurel forest type, which covered much of Southern Europe 15-40 million years ago. The forest of the property completely covers a series of very steep, V-shaped valleys leading from the plateau and east-west ridge in the centre of the island to the north coast.
