Abstract: Melaleuca cajuputi essential oil (MCEO) from Pulau Buru (PBR), Indonesia, has been used as a functional flavor on Cajuputs Candy for years. Our recent study has explored thirteen other alternative MCEO sources to be developed as food flavor. However, not all of the MCEO had similarities to PBR MCEO both in their sensory and volatile profiles. This study aimed to identify the aroma-active compounds which would affect the overall aroma perception of the most- and the least-liked MCEO as a flavor ingredient based on the nasal impact frequency (NIF) method. Initial screening was performed to evaluate the overall liking of thirteen MCEO on Cajuputs Candy through a hedonic test, conducted by seventy-eight untrained panelists. The sample obtained from Mojokerto (MOJ) was the most-liked alternatives MCEO in a similar degree of liking to the currently used PBR, while Belu (BEL) was the least-liked.

  • Local Native Plant Species for Superb Fairy-Wren Habitat
    Suggested local native plant species for Superb Fairy-wren habitat Extract from the report, Superb Fairy-Wren Habitat in Glebe and Forest Lodge, S. Stevens, The Glebe Society, Sydney, 2008. The plants listed are thought to have been indigenous to inner-western Sydney prior to white settlement. Emphasis in this list is on plants that should be fairly easily obtainable, but a few that may be difficult to obtain at present, such as Epacrids and some Peas, and plants such as Epacrids have traditionally been difficult to propagate, have been included to indicate the variety of plants that are suitable for Superb Fairy-wren habitat, and with a view that these plant species may be available in the future. Indeed, highlighting them as suitable small bird habitat may influence some nurseries to add them to their stocklists.

  • Morphology and Vascular Anatomy of the Flower of Angophora Intermedia
    © Landesmuseum für Kärnten; download www.landesmuseum.ktn.gv.at/wulfenia; www.biologiezentrum.at Wulfenia 13 (2006): 11–19 Mitteilungen des Kärntner Botanikzentrums Klagenfurt Morphology and vascular anatomy of the fl ower of Angophora intermedia DC. (Myrtaceae) with special emphasis on the innervation of the fl oral axis Sergey A. Volgin & Anastasiya Stepanova Summary: A peculiar receptacle structure in Angophora intermedia DC. (Myrtaceae) has been determined by a vascular-anatomical method. The vascular system of the fl ower of A. intermedia consists of numerous ascending bundles and girdling bundles in the hypanthium and the inferior ovary wall. In the central column of the trilocular ovary we found a dense conical plexus of vascular bundles supplying the placentae (infralocular plexus). It is connected with ascending bundles of the receptacle in the ovary base. In its central part it contains “hanged” bundles and blind bundles, so it seems to be a residual stele of a rudimentary fl oral apex. Thus, the receptacle ofA. intermedia is toroidal at the level of fl oral organs and conical above the carpel node. Keywords: Angophora intermedia, Myrtaceae, fl ower morphology, vascular system, fl oral axis, innervation, anatomy The fl oral development in different species of Myrtaceae has been studied precisely to elucidate the homology of the inferior ovary, hypanthium, operculate perianth and stamens of the polymerous androecium (PAYER 1857; MAYR 1969; BUNNIGER 1972; DRINNAN & LADIGES 1988; RONSE DECRAENE & SMETS 1991; ORLOVICH et al. 1996). Developmental and histogenetical studies have shown, that the receptacle in the fl ower of Myrtaceae is cup-like and take part to certain extent in the formation of the inferior ovary wall and the hypanthium (PAYER 1857; BUNNIGER 1972; RONSE DECRAENE & SMETS 1991).

We found records at seven localities in two of the nine provinces of South Africa, with naturalised populations at two sites — ~300 plants were discovered over 0.3ha in a confined-seep on a mountain slope, while at an old arboretum 12 large, planted trees and 9 naturalised trees were found. An additional herbarium record from Mozambique suggests that this global invader is present at other sites within the sub-region, and so while the extirpation of populations in South Africa is recommended and looks feasible, further work is required to determine the status and evaluate whether eradication from the sub-region as a whole is possible.
