Vietnam’s conifer flora has approximately 34 species that are indigenous to the country, making up about 5% of conifers known worldwide. Although conifers represent only less than 0.3% of the total number of higher vascular plant species of Vietnam, they are of great ecological, cultural and economic importance. Most conifer wood is prized for its high value in house construction, furniture making, etc. The decline of conifer populations in Vietnam has caused serious concern among scientists. Threats to conifer species are substantial and varied, ranging from logging (both commercial and subsistence), land clearing for agriculture, and forest fire. Over the past twelve years (1995-2006), Vietnam Botanical Conservation Program (VBCP), a scientific cooperation between the Missouri Botanical Garden in Saint Louis and the Institute of Ecology and Biological Resources in Hanoi, has conducted various studies on this important group of plants in order to gather baseline information necessary to make sound recommendations for their conservation and sustainable use.

  • The Convention on Biological Diversity Plant Conservation Report a Review of Progress in Implementing the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation (GSPC) Foreword
    The Convention on Biological Diversity Plant Conservation Report A review of progress in implementing the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation (GSPC) Foreword t is a pleasure for me to contribute a foreword for this important report documenting the progress that has been made worldwide towards the achievement of the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation (GSPC). The adoption by the Convention on Biological Diversity of the Strategy in 2002 was a major achievement Ifor biodiversity conservation worldwide. It provided much needed and urgent recognition not only of the importance of plants for humanity but also of the critical threats faced by tens of thousands of plant species throughout the world. The unique importance of plants as essential renewable natural resources and as the basis for most terrestrial ecosystems demanded that such a strategy was required to help halt the loss of plant diversity and raise new awareness of the threats faced by plants. The Strategy was also an extremely innovative advance fo r the Convention too as it incorporated for the first time a series of targets for biodiversity conservation, aimed at achieving measurable plant conservation outcomes by 2010. The catalytic role of the Strategy in stimulating new programmes and initiatives at all levels has been significant too, linking a wide range of organisations and institutions in support of the Strategy. It is clear that much new plant conservation action has been encouraged and supported by the GSPC to date, including the generation of substantial new resources for biodiversity conservation that would not otherwise have become available without the Strategy. This report shows that substantial progress has been made towards reaching some of the GSPC targets, although for others it has been limited and will require renewed effort by the international community if they are to be achieved.

  • Nootkatensis, Secondary Metabolites, Biological Activities, and Chemical Ecology
    Journal of Chemical Ecology (2018) 44:510–524 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10886-018-0956-y REVIEW ARTICLE Yellow-Cedar, Callitropsis (Chamaecyparis) nootkatensis, Secondary Metabolites, Biological Activities, and Chemical Ecology Joseph J. Karchesy1 & Rick G. Kelsey2 & M. P. González-Hernández3 Received: 22 December 2017 /Revised: 26 March 2018 /Accepted: 28 March 2018 /Published online: 14 April 2018 # This is a U.S. government work and its text is not subject to copyright protection in the United States; however, its text may be subject to foreign copyright protection 2018 Abstract Yellow-cedar, Callitropsis nootkatensis, is prevalent in coastal forests of southeast Alaska, western Canada, and inland forests along the Cascades to northern California, USA. These trees have few microbial or animal pests, attributable in part to the distinct groups of biologically active secondary metabolites their tissues store for chemical defense. Here we summarize the new yellow-cedar compounds identified and their biological activities, plus new or expanded activities for tissues, extracts, essential oils and previously known compounds since the last review more than 40 years ago. Monoterpene hydrocarbons are the most abundant compounds in foliage, while heartwood contains substantial quantities of oxygenated monoterpenes and oxygenated sesquiterpenes, with one or more tropolones. Diterpenes occur in foliage and bark, whereas condensed tannins have been isolated from inner bark. Biological activities expressed by one or more compounds in these groups include fungicide, bactericide, sporicide, acaricide, insecticide, general cytotoxicity, antioxidant and human anticancer. The diversity of organisms impacted by whole tissues, essential oils, extracts, or individual compounds now encompasses ticks, fleas, termites, ants, mos- quitoes, bacteria, a water mold, fungi and browsing animals.

    Zhu et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology (2018) 18:137 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12862-018-1258-2 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Phylogenomic evidence for ancient recombination between plastid genomes of the Cupressus-Juniperus-Xanthocyparis complex (Cupressaceae) Andan Zhu1,2,3†, Weishu Fan1,2,3†, Robert P. Adams4 and Jeffrey P. Mower1,2* Abstract Background: Phylogenetic relationships among Eastern Hemisphere cypresses, Western Hemisphere cypresses, junipers, and their closest relatives are controversial, and generic delimitations have been in flux for the past decade. To address relationships and attempt to produce a more robust classification, we sequenced 11 new plastid genomes (plastomes) from the five variously described genera in this complex (Callitropsis, Cupressus, Hesperocyparis, Juniperus,and Xanthocyparis) and compared them with additional plastomes from diverse members of Cupressaceae. Results: Phylogenetic analysis of protein-coding genes recovered a topology in which Juniperus is sister to Cupressus, whereas a tree based on whole plastomes indicated that the Callitropsis-Hesperocyparis-Xanthocyparis (CaHX) clade is sister to Cupressus. A sliding window analysis of site-specific phylogenetic support identified a ~ 15 kb region, spanning the genes ycf1 and ycf2, which harbored an anomalous signal relative to the rest of the genome. After excluding these genes, trees based on the remainder of the genes and genome consistently recovered a topology grouping the CaHX clade and Cupressus with strong bootstrap support. In contrast, trees based on the ycf1 and ycf2 region strongly supported a sister relationship between Cupressus and Juniperus. Conclusions: These results demonstrate that standard phylogenomic analyses can result in strongly supported but conflicting trees. We suggest that the conflicting plastomic signals result from an ancient introgression event involving ycf1 and ycf2 that occurred in an ancestor of this species complex.

  • Xanthocyparis Vietnamensis It Is Ten Years Since the First Introductions of This Conifer Were Made to Cultivation
    Xanthocyparis vietnamensis It is ten years since the first introductions of this conifer were made to cultivation. TOM CHRISTIAN assesses its performance in the United Kingdom and Ireland in this time. The Vietnamese yellow cypress caused a small sensation when it was first described to science in 2002. True, it didn’t have the same extraordinary PR machine and marketing behind it as the Wollemi pine, but never the less it has been a source of great interest and intrigue to all who know of it. The discovery of this new conifer is well documented, for example by Farjon (2008) and the ensuing nomenclatural disputes are, for the brave, outlined in Grimshaw & Bayton (2009). However this short article is concerned neither with the issue of Xanthocyparis vs. Cupressus vs. Callitropsis nor of lengthy botanical descriptions, but of what the last ten years have taught us about growing this enigmatic new conifer. The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh’s International Conifer Conservation Programme (ICCP) first introduced this species to cultivation in the UK through cuttings. These cuttings were excess from experiments conducted in Vietnam as part of the ‘Northern Vietnam First Darwin Expedition’ – an international collaboration – and were brought to Edinburgh under full 50 permission and permits in November 2002. More cutting material followed in 2003, and RBGE horticulturists began to bulk up the collections through vegetative propagation. Like so many other members of the Cupressaceae, X. vietnamensis was found to come relatively easily from cuttings. Semi-ripe heel cuttings of the adult foliage, taken in the autumn and dusted with a medium-strength rooting hormone powder will usually root within three months when placed in a 50:50 mix of coir and perlite in a fogging unit or on a mist bench with gentle bottom heat.
