  • Appendix Color Plates of Solanales Species
    Appendix Color Plates of Solanales Species The first half of the color plates (Plates 1–8) shows a selection of phytochemically prominent solanaceous species, the second half (Plates 9–16) a selection of convol- vulaceous counterparts. The scientific name of the species in bold (for authorities see text and tables) may be followed (in brackets) by a frequently used though invalid synonym and/or a common name if existent. The next information refers to the habitus, origin/natural distribution, and – if applicable – cultivation. If more than one photograph is shown for a certain species there will be explanations for each of them. Finally, section numbers of the phytochemical Chapters 3–8 are given, where the respective species are discussed. The individually combined occurrence of sec- ondary metabolites from different structural classes characterizes every species. However, it has to be remembered that a small number of citations does not neces- sarily indicate a poorer secondary metabolism in a respective species compared with others; this may just be due to less studies being carried out.

Accepted 1 October, 2015 The allelopathic potential of extracts and residue of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) Lam. plant clone 'CEMSA 78-354' on weeds seeds germination was examined. Plant residues inhibited the weed emergence and weed seeds germination. The negative Response Index indicated that monocot weeds were less sensitive than dicot weeds. I. batatas plant parts extracts inhibited seed germination and stimulate radicle length of P. olerasea and A. spinosus . Many phytochemicals (fatty acids, triterpenes, steroids, alkaloids, quinones, phenols, tannins, flavonoids, saponins etc.) with allelochemical potential were detected in I. batatas plant.

A 122 d experiment was conducted to assess the effects of water spinach Ipomoea aquatica cultivation in floating beds on water quality, and growth performance and eco- nomic return of P. sinensis cultured in ponds. Two treatments, each in triplicate, with and without I. aquatica cultivation were designed. Results showed that the levels of total ammonia nitrogen (TAN), total nitrogen (TN), total phosphorus (TP), chlorophyll a (chl a) and turbidity in treatments with I. aquatica cultivation (IAC) were significantly (p < 0.05) lower than those in treatments with- out I. aquatica (control). Mean TN and TP concentrations in the IAC treatment were 27.9 and 42.5%, respectively, lower than in the control treatment at the end of the experiment. The pres- ence of I. aquatica also has a positive effect on the performance of P.

  • Larvicide of Aedes Aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) from Ipomoea Pes-Caprae (Solanales: Convolvulaceae) Musri Musman, Sofyatuddin Karina, Said Almukhsin
    AACL BIOFLUX Aquaculture, Aquarium, Conservation & Legislation International Journal of the Bioflux Society Larvicide of Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) from Ipomoea pes-caprae (Solanales: Convolvulaceae) Musri Musman, Sofyatuddin Karina, Said Almukhsin Department of Marine Science, Marine and Fisheries Coordinatorate, Syiah Kuala University, Darussalam-Banda Aceh, Indonesia. Corresponding author: M. Musman, [email protected] Abstract. This research aimed to evaluate larvicidal candidate of the extracts of whole parts (roots, stems, leaves, flowers, and seeds) of Ipomoea pes-caprae (L.) R. Br. on Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus, 1762) larvae. The criteria applied to select larvicidal candidate were (1) the concentration of the extract solution must be ≤ 50 ppm, and (2) the larval mortality due to administration of the extract should be reached ≥ 75%. The I. pes-caprae parts were extracted with methanol and water solvents. Refer to the criteria, the methanol extract of the I. pes-caprae leaf was selected as the larvicidal candidate of the A. aegypti larvae. The 3rd instar of A. aegypti larvae was tested with five kinds of concentration of an aqueous solution of I. pes-caprae leaf extracts by completely random design with four replications. The methanol extract of I. pes-caprae leaf showed a very strong larvicide (LC50 was 12.60 ppm) of A. aegypti larvae. Key Words: larvae, Aedes aegypti, Ipomoea pes-caprae, instar, larvicidal candidate, methanol extract. Introduction. Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a disease spread by the Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus, 1762) mosquito with a rapid rate of transmission and occurs in tropical regions, subtropical, and temperate in the whole world. DHF is one health problem in the world which the number of sufferers have been gradually increasing in quantity (Rao et al 2011).

    Insert as an Additional Taxa For Ardisia japonica: Ardisia crenata J. Sims Coralberry (Ardisia crenulata) C This is species is also known as Spiceberry; Coralberry is a larger version of A. japonica forming a rounded woody evergreen shrub 3N to 5N(6N) tall; the 4O to 6O(8O) long elliptic-lanceolate to oblanceolate lustrous dark green leaves have crenate-undulate margins; the foliage tends to be bunched toward the ends of the stems; the specific epithet refers to these crenate leaves. C Plants have small ¼O long white to pink inverted urn-shaped flowers in cymes in spring to summer; however, the species’ primary asset is the massed clusters of bright shiny red fruits; they are extremely showy, contrasting handsomely with the dark green foliage, ala a holly mimic. C Originating from Japan and Southeast Asia, this species has limited cold tolerance, but good heat tolerance’ it is effective in USDA zones 8(7) to 10 landscapes; plants are prolific seed producers and have naturalized extensively in eastern portions of the Gulf Coast; they are often found along woodland edges, but can tolerate full sun where adequate moisture is available; growth is best in well drained, moist, fertile, acidic to neutral soils; unfortunately, A. crenata can become weedy in favorable environments. C Ardisia crispa (C. Thunberg) A.P. de Candolle, Coral Ardisia, is a similar, but less cold hardy groundcover sometimes encountered along the Gulf Coast in South Texas or as an interiorscape plant.

Threats: • Conversion of habitat to pine plantations (bedding, dense tree spacing, etc.) • Residential and commercial development • Fire exclusion, allowing invasion of habitat by woody species • Hydrologic alteration directly (e.g. ditching) and indirectly (fire suppression allowing higher tree density and more large-diameter trees) Beneficial Management Practices: • Thinning (during very dry periods), targeting off-site species such as loblolly and slash pines for removal • Prescribed burning, establishing a regime consisting of mostly growing season (May-June) burns Rare Plants of Louisiana LA River Basins: Pearl, Pontchartrain, Mermentau, Calcasieu, Sabine Side view of flower.

  • Nutritional Value of Cambodian Crops
    Nutritional Value of Common Fruits & Vegetables Grown in Cambodia Note: Recent research in Cambodia and other developing countries shows that the most common micro-nutrient deficiencies (especially among women and children) are: anemia (lack of iron), night blindness (lack of enough Vitamin A), and goiter/iodine deficiency (although in Cambodia they are promoting iodized salt, and a lot of people now use it). Additionally, protein deficiency is always a leading factor in severe malnutrition. See page 8 for recommended daily intakes. Nutritional value of foods is based on the USDA database. Note that this is the value per 100 grams of raw, uncooked foods (unless otherwise noted); keep in mind that most vegetables lose nutrients the longer you cook them.
