Principi Di Spontaneizzazione in Sicilia Di Talinum Paniculatum (Talinaceae)
Quad. Bot. Amb. Appl. 26 (2015): 23-26. Pubblicato online il 28.07.2017 Principi di spontaneizzazione in Sicilia di Talinum paniculatum (Talinaceae) F. SCAFIDI & F.M. RAIMONDO Dipartimento STEBICEF/ Sezione di Botanica ed Ecologia vegetale, Via Archirafi 38, I-90123 Palermo. ABSTRACT. – Record of Talinum paniculatum (Talinaceae) naturalized in Sicily. – The record in the urban context of Palermo (Sicily) of Talinum paniculatum, species native to Tropical America and mainly cultivated for ornamental purposes, is reported. It is the first case of naturalization in the Island of a species of Talinaceae family introduced to Palermo in 1984 from Argentina and cultivated in the Botanical Garden collections. Key words: Talinum, alien flora, Mediterranean plants, Sicily. PREMESSA Il genere Talinum Adans.

Subito dopo il suo inserimento nelle collezioni in vaso nelle regioni tropicali delle Americhe e in Sud Africa dell’Orto, all’interno del giardino, nelle aiuole e nei vasi da (MABBERLEY, 2008). Le specie riferite a questo genere – in collezione, cominciarono ad osservarsi diversi individui precedenza incluso nella famiglia Portulacaceae – sono per spontanei, indice di un’attiva capacità di spontaneizzazione lo più erbe e si distinguono per avere fusto e foglie succulenti della specie nel peculiare clima della Città di Palermo, (MENDOZA & WOOD, 2013).

Complete Peer review History: http://www.sdiarticle4.com/review-history/59495 Received 24 May 2020 Accepted 30 July 2020 Short Communication Published 08 August 2020 ABSTRACT Current research work comprises Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) study of two members of Portulaca Family namely, Portulaca pilosa & Portulaca quadrifida Linn. Portulaca pilosa is well known ornamental plant whereas Portulaca quadrifida Linn. is a weed. Both are known for their herbal importance and were grown in March last year in self-built herbal garden. In June last year, twigs of both herbs were plucked and kept under shade for drying. After one month, dry twigs were ground to fine powder and then analyzed using FTIR technique. Functional groups of phytochemicals were identified through FTIR spectral lines. Appropriate correlations of absorption peaks to medicinal compounds have been discussed. As a result, both herbs are found to be rich source of bioactive compounds like alkaloids, flavonoids, fatty acids, tannins, triterpenoids, amino acids and saponins. -

A Comparative Study on In Vitro Antibacterial Activity of Different Leaf Extracts of Medicinal Plant Talinum paniculatum Keywords: Talinum paniculatum, leaf extracts, antibacterial activity, in vitro ABSTRACT R.N.N. Gamage, K.B. Hasanthi, K.D.K.P. Kumari* There is an urgent need for the development of novel affordable plant based natural antibacterial agents in order to combat Department of Basic Sciences, Faculty of Allied Health against the emergence of antibiotic resistance, resulting from Sciences, General Sir John Kotelawala Defence the indiscriminate use of currently available antibiotics. Therefore, this study evaluated the in vitro antibacterial activity University, Ratmalana, Sri Lanka and minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of aqueous, methanol, acetone and hexane extracts of the leaf Talinum Submission: 22 September 2017 paniculatum against Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922) and Accepted: 3 October 2017 Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923). Agar well diffusion Published: 30 October 2017 method was performed to evaluate antibacterial activity of each leaf extract at concentrations of 100 mg/mL and 50 mg/mL. Additionally, broth dilution technique was used to determine MIC. The results revealed, for the first time, that each crude leaf extract exhibited antibacterial activity against both E. coli and S. aureus. The largest zones of inhibition against E. coli and S. aureus were observed for 100 mg/mL methanolic and www.ijppr.humanjournals.com aqueous leaf extracts, respectively. It is concluded that antibacterial potential of the leaf T. paniculatum is mediated primarily via its phytoconstituents, such as alkaloids, phenols, saponins, tannins, steroids, triterpenes and flavonoids. -

Full of Beans: a Study on the Alignment of Two Flowering Plants Classification Systems
Full of beans: a study on the alignment of two flowering plants classification systems Yi-Yun Cheng and Bertram Ludäscher School of Information Sciences, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA {yiyunyc2,ludaesch}@illinois.edu Abstract. Advancements in technologies such as DNA analysis have given rise to new ways in organizing organisms in biodiversity classification systems. In this paper, we examine the feasibility of aligning two classification systems for flowering plants using a logic-based, Region Connection Calculus (RCC-5) ap- proach. The older “Cronquist system” (1981) classifies plants using their mor- phological features, while the more recent Angiosperm Phylogeny Group IV (APG IV) (2016) system classifies based on many new methods including ge- nome-level analysis. In our approach, we align pairwise concepts X and Y from two taxonomies using five basic set relations: congruence (X=Y), inclusion (X>Y), inverse inclusion (X<Y), overlap (X><Y), and disjointness (X!Y). With some of the RCC-5 relationships among the Fabaceae family (beans family) and the Sapindaceae family (maple family) uncertain, we anticipate that the merging of the two classification systems will lead to numerous merged solutions, so- called possible worlds. Our research demonstrates how logic-based alignment with ambiguities can lead to multiple merged solutions, which would not have been feasible when aligning taxonomies, classifications, or other knowledge or- ganization systems (KOS) manually. We believe that this work can introduce a novel approach for aligning KOS, where merged possible worlds can serve as a minimum viable product for engaging domain experts in the loop. Keywords: taxonomy alignment, KOS alignment, interoperability 1 Introduction With the advent of large-scale technologies and datasets, it has become increasingly difficult to organize information using a stable unitary classification scheme over time. -

Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 44 p. Abstract Administered by the USDA Forest Service, the Kiowa and Rita Blanca National Grasslands occupy 230,000 acres of public land extending from northeastern New Mexico into the panhandles of Oklahoma and Texas. A mosaic of topographic features including canyons, plateaus, rolling grasslands and outcrops supports a diverse flora. Eight hundred twenty six (826) species of vascular plant species representing 81 plant families are known to occur on or near these public lands. This report includes a history of the area; ethnobotanical information; an introductory overview of the area including its climate, geology, vegetation, habitats, fauna, and ecological history; and a plant survey and information about the rare, poisonous, and exotic species from the area. A vascular plant checklist of 816 vascular plant taxa in the appendix includes scientific and common names, habitat types, and general distribution data for each species. This list is based on extensive plant collections and available herbarium collections. Authors Donald L.

Stalactite Development in the Exotesta Cell Walls of Amaranthus Retroflexus L

(Amaranthaceae): an unusual way of cell wall lysis Khalima Kh. Dzhalilova, Alexander C. Timonin & Tatiana D. Veselova Summary: The stalactites, unique structures that are specific for Amaranthaceae s. lat., are numerous cross-walled, smooth-contoured masses of precipitated tannic substances in the thickened outer cell wall of the exotesta cells. The stalactites strikingly differ from typical depositions of tannic and other non-crystalline substances in plant cell walls. The latter, unlike stalactites, are deposited in layers parallel to the cell wall or they evenly or gradually impregnate the cell wall. The stalactites are initially detected as isolated, closed, smooth-walled, globular cavities in the inner papillae of the cell wall at the heart embryo developmental stage. These cavities elongate inwards during cell wall differentiation and thickening. They are filled with insoluble tannic substances at the immature seed developmental stage. The stalactites are solid masses of tannic (and phytomelanin) substances, which fill pre-developed cross-walled cavities in the outer cell wall of the exotesta cells. These cavities are completely isolated by the cell wall layers from the plasma membrane at each stage of their development.
