Schinus Molle (California Pepper Tree) Levi Rynearson ENH 101 Family: Anacardiaceae Scientific name: Schinus molle Common Names: American pepper, Peruvian peppertree, False pepper, escobilla, and Peppercorn tree. Was not originally found in the U.S. and brought over by franciscans who needed shade trees that were drought tolerant. Originates from the Andes mountains in Peru. The molle portion of the name comes from the Quechua word for tree ‘molli’ Form: Single orMulti-trunk/ weeping formation Pinnate compound leaves with linear shape Axilary flowers with off white color Fruit is a deep red to brown color with a strong pepper scent Bark starts out grey as juvenile becoming red as tree matures. Sun: Full sun reflected heat Water/ Soil: drought tolerant when established. Needs good drainage and regular irrigation when establishing. Useful as centerpiece plant in a landscape Good for low water conditions Prefers sandy soils Plant away from walkways due to shallow roots Roots can be brittle making it prone to being blown over Susceptible to scale and psyllid damage Can be prone to root rot if soil is not well aerated Hosts black scale which can be damaging to citrus species. Can be carefully ground to make a juice, or dried to make a syrup. Was used in the Andes as an ingredient for making a fermented alcoholic beverage. Leaves are poisonous to poultry, pigs and young children. Good pest control tree Can be used as an ingredient in Antiperspirant, toothache, and rheumatism medicine. http://lh2treeid.blogspot.com/2010/03/schinus-molle-california- pepper-tree.html http://ag.arizona.edu/pima/gardening/aridplants/Schinus_moll e.html http://www.monrovia.com/plant- catalog/plants/2084/california-pepper-tree.php .

Pierre ex Pax seeds treatments influence on the q Year 2004 Source title Rivista Italiana delle Sostanze Grasse Reference 81(5): 299-303 Abstract The effects of heating Ricinodendron heudelotii seeds on the quality of the oil extracted was studied. The seeds were preheated by dry and wet methods at three temperatures (50, 70 and 90 degrees C) for 10, 20, 30 and 60 minutes. The oil was extracted using the Soxhlet method with hexane. The results showed a significant change in oil acid value when heated at 90 degrees C for 60 minutes, with values of 2.76+or-0.18 for the dry method and 2.90+or-0.14 for the wet method. Heating at the same conditions yielded peroxide values of 10.70+or-0.03 for the dry method and 11.95+or-0.08 for the wet method. Author A. L. Khandare, U. Kumar P, R. G. Shanker, K. Venkaiah and N.

Elias Professor of Food Science Thesis Co-Advisor Michela Centinari Associate Professor of Viticulture Robert F. Roberts Professor of Food Science Head of the Department of Food Science iii ABSTRACT It is often said that high quality grapes must be used in order to create high quality wines. This production begins in the vineyard and is impacted by viticultural and environmental conditions that may or may not be able to be controlled. Weather conditions are among these uncontrollable factors, and the influence of weather conditions on final grape and wine quality has been the subject of investigation in both research and industry for many years. Many studies have determined that factors such as rainfall, sunlight exposure, and temperature play an important role in the development of phenolic and aromatic compounds and their precursors in berries, which ultimately affects wine aroma, taste, and flavor. Examination of weather conditions and climate in wine regions have been the subject of studies not only to understand impacts on wine quality attributes, but also to determine if regional trends exist for particular areas. The concept of regionality, or the particular style of wine that a growing region produces, is a new area of study for the Eastern United States, including Pennsylvania, which is the focus of this study.

    Recommended Street Tree Species List San Francisco Urban Forestry Council Updated May 2014 The Urban Forestry Council annually reviews and updates this list of trees, in collaboration with public and non-profit urban forestry stakeholders, including San Francisco’s Department of Public Works Urban Forestry Division and Friends of the Urban Forest. It’s impottant to carefully match the conditions of your site with the tree you choose. Please note that while this list contains recommendations that are known to do well in many locations in San Francisco, no tree is perfect for every potential tree planting location. This list should be used as a guideline for choosing which street tree to plant, but should not be used without the help of a tree professional. Section 1: Tree species, varieties, and cultivars that do well in most locations in the San Francisco.

Schinus molle L. (1753: 388) is a cultivated ornamental tree in Australia, California, Mexico, the Canary Islands, the Mediterranean, and elsewhere (US Forest Service 2015). In Hawaii, Florida, South Africa, Mascarene Islands, and Australia, Schinus terebinthifolia Raddi (1820: 399) is an aggressively invasive pest plant, costing governments millions of dollars in damages and control (Ferriter 1997). Despite being an important and widely known genus, the gender of the genus name is a source of tremendous nomenclatural confusion, if one judges from the orthographic variants of the species epithets. Of the 38 accepted species and infraspecific taxa on The Plant List (theplantlist.org, ver. 1.1), one is a duplicated name, 18 are masculine epithets (but ten of these are substantive epithets honoring men and are thus properly masculine [Nicolson 1974]), 12 are feminine epithets (one of which, arenicola, is always feminine [Stearn 1983]), and seven have epithets that are the same in any gender (or have no gender, as in the case of S.

  • Landmark Trees
    LANDMARK TREES City of Fremont L A N D M A R K T R E E S OF THE C ITY OF F REMONT Printed: August 2012 Landscape Architecture Division Community Services Department L A N D M A R K T R E E S introduction Drawings: Phillip Eaker In May of 1966, the City of Fremont, sponsored by the City Beautiful Committee, adopted a tree preservation ordinance to encourage and promote the preservation of trees. In August of 1970, the City Beautiful Committee received approval by the city council to conduct a survey of specimen trees for the final selection of outstanding landmark trees. The survey indicated the findings of 124 landmark trees to be preserved under resolution no. 3027, adopted in May 16, 1972. Several locations of the original 124 trees were inaccessible or hidden from public view. As a result, the list was reduced to sixty.1 The first publication containing the sixty landmark trees was published in 1973. The pages were black and white and each tree had beautifully hand-drawn sketches for visual reference. Since then, the publication has been a living encyclopedia of Fremont’s natural heritage. New trees were given landmark status by City Council over the years, but the publication remained the same. Almost 40 years later, in August 2010, the City’s landmark trees were revisited. Several did not survive the test of time and some suffered from urbanization. However, the majority of the orig- inal sixty still exists today and continues to tower above Fremont’s changed landscape.

Several volatiles components were identified by GC-MS. The major compound detected in leaves and fruits essential oils, was bicyclogermacrene (35.58 % and 23.56 %, respectively). Schinus terebinthifolius fruits essential oil showed lower total phenolic and flavonoids content but higher antiradical activity than the leaves one. This antioxidant activity characterizing Schinus terebinthifolius essential oils was high enough to consider the plant as a new and natural source of antioxidants. Keywords: Schinus terebinthifolius, essential oil, GC-MS, total phenolic content, antioxidant activity. 1. Introduction as well as in Chilean wines.

These kinds of materials make sure the protection of individuals from the mosquitoes and the mosquito-borne diseases like intestinal sickness, filariasis and dengue fever. In this investigationSchinus molle (Pepper Tree) seed oil was utilized as mosquito repellent completion. The investigation concentrated on the entrance of mosquito repellent completion in textile applications just as nature-based options in contrast to commercial synthetic mosquito anti-agents in the market. Appropriate techniques and materials to accomplish mosquito repellency are talked about and brought up. Cotton sample was treated within the sight of acrylic copolymer cover for better obsession. Schinus molle Seed Oil demonstrated very inspiring repellency to mosquitoes without causing much impact on the mass properties of the texture like quality, solidifies and bowing length. Be that as it may, the absorption was altogether diminished.
