Box 577, Gualala, CA 95445 i $5.00 per year, non-members Volume 2013 NovNov----DecDec ‘13‘13‘13 Printed on recycled paper The CALYPSO NEWSLETTER OF THE DOROTHY KING YOUNG CHAPTER CALIFORNIA NATIVE PLANT SOCIETY Annual Potluck and Program: Sunday, December 15, 2013 is the date for the annual DKY Potluck, from noon to about 2:00 p.m., at the Greenwood Community Center in Elk. Bring a dish to share, your own liquid refreshment, and dishes and utensils. Lunch starts at noon, with the annual meeting at 1 p.m. held to elect the 2014 slate of officers: President: Nancy Morin, Vice-President: Mario Abreu, Secretary: Lori Hubbart, Treasurer: Mary Hunter. The program starts soon after the meeting and there will be native plants for sale as well as books and posters. This year’s speaker is Nancy Morin, our chapter president and nationally known botanist, who will give a program about rare plants of the Mendocino Coast. Nancy is currently Vice-President for Business and Development at the Flora of North America (FNA) and she was Convening Editor of FNA for sixteen years until 1999. More recently, she served as the Executive Director of the Mendocino Coast Botanical Garden and, at present, she is collaborating with a faculty member of Northern Arizona University on a phylogenetic analysis of the genus Nemacladus . LOCAL RARE PLANTS, WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT THEM? a program by Nancy Morin The Mendocino/northern Sonoma coast is home to fascinating rare plant communities and rare plant species. Some of them have originated fairly recently, some are quite ancient. Some are spectacular—think of Coast Lily, Lilium maritimum , and others are extremely inconspicuous—think of short- leaved evax, Hesperevax sparsiflora var. brevifolia . But what is actually known about the evolutionary history, relationships, and biology of our rare plants? This talk will Hesperevax sparsiflora var. brevifolia photographed in coastal bluff scrub near look at some of the patterns Fort Bragg, CA © Aaron Arthur 2013. that are seen in rare plants generally, give case studies of some of our better known rare species, and consider some of the intriguing sightings of rare plants that might be worth a concerted effort to relocate. our rare Horkelias described in the article p. 5, PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE are relicts from much larger earlier populations. by Nancy Morin There were close to 300 excited plant lovers at The Dorothy King Young Chapter this Southern California Botanists meeting and it of CNPS has had two extremely was both mentally stimulating and a lot of fun. successful and fun Fall Plant Sales.

  • Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
    Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page. Basal Angiosperms (ANITA grade) Amborellales Amborellaceae, sole family, the earliest branch of flowering plants, a shrub native to New Caledonia – Amborella Nymphaeales Hydatellaceae – aquatics from Australasia, previously classified as a grass Cabombaceae (water shield – Brasenia, fanwort – Cabomba) Nymphaeaceae (water lilies – Nymphaea; pond lilies – Nuphar) Austrobaileyales Schisandraceae (wild sarsaparilla, star vine – Schisandra; Japanese

In Oregon, it includes all or portions of Curry, Douglas, Jackson, and Josephine counties. The region is the home of 215 endemics. No family of vascular plants is endemic here. Kalmiopsis is endemic to Oregon, Howellanthus to California, and Bensoniella to both states. There are 103 taxa restricted to northwestern California; 38 taxa to southwestern Oregon; and 74 taxa endemic to the region in both states. We have excluded taxa that are based on suspect far-out- of-range collections, presumed extinct, or that were otherwise anomalous.

Systematics and polyploid evolution in Potentilleae (Rosaceae). This thesis comprises studies of the phylogenetic relationships in the flowering plant clade Potentilleae in Rosaceae. The relationships were elucidated by using DNA sequence data from the nuclear genome as well as from the plastid genome. In particular, the focus of the studies was the investigation of allopolyploidy, i.e. speciation as a result of hybridization and subsequent chromosome doubling. A phylogenetic method was used for identifying allopolyploidy through comparison of trees resulting from the analyses of different DNA sequences. Five sub-clades were investigated. First, both the sister clades that together contain all of Potentilleae: Fragariinae and Potentilla. Secondly, three subclades of Fragariinae, namely Alchemilla in wide sense, Sibbaldia and relatives, and Fragaria. The aim was to unravel the phylogenetic relationships, including instances of allopolyploidy. Classification issues were discussed in relation to the phylogenetic results. The split between Potentilla (=Potentillinae) and Fragariinae received better support than in previous studies. The phylogeny of Fragariinae was found to be consistent with classifying ten genera: Alchemilla in wide sense (incl.

  • Potentilla Using DNA Sequences of Nuclear Ribosomal Internal Transcribed Spacers (ITS), and Implications for the Classification of Rosoideae (Rosaceae)
    --Plant Pl. Syst. Evol. 211:155-179 (1998) Systematics and Evolution © Springer-Verlag 1998 Printed in Austria Phylogenetic analysis of Potentilla using DNA sequences of nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacers (ITS), and implications for the classification of Rosoideae (Rosaceae) TORSTEN ERIKSSON, MICHAEL J. DONOOHUE, and MALIN S. HIBBS Received December 17, 1996; in revised version March 18, 1997 Key words: Rosaceae, Rosoideae, PotentilIa, Fragaria, Duchesnea. - Phylogeny, classification, phylogenetic nomenclature, ribosomal DNA, ITS. Abstract: The circumscription of Potentilla has varied widely. To investigate the monophyly of Potentilla and the phylogenetic relationships of associated genera we used nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) DNA sequences. Fourteen species of Potentilla (sensu WOLF 1908) were included, some of which represent proposed segregate genera (such as Argentina, Comarum, Drymocallis, Duchesnea, Pentaphylloides, and Sibbaldiopsis), and 17 other genera of Rosoideae, using Prunus as outgroup. Out most parsimonious tree strongly implies that Potentilla is not monophyletic. Forcing the monophyly of Potentilla yields distinctly longer trees. Several morphological features appear to have evolved several times independently, including the swollen receptacle ("strawberry") and temate leaves. In order to minimise nomenclatural change and to name only well supported clades, Potentilla should be split into several genera, while other previously recognised genera such as Duchesnea, Horkelia, and Ivesia are best included in Potentilla. We suggest, however, that a phylogenetic nomenclature (sensu DE QuEraoz & GAUTHIEU 1994) might be a better solution. Potentilla L. is a rather large genus (c. 200-500 species) of herbaceous or some- what woody perennials distributed mainly in the Northern Hemisphere. Species diversity is highest in northern Eurasia.

Summary. A new system of subtribe Potentillinae J. Presl down to the rank of sections is presented. The Fragari- astrum and Tormentilla groups of the genus Potentilla L. is classified here as distinct genera, supported by results of molecular studies and morphological differences. Most of species of these groups formerly included in Potentilla are transferred to the separate genera Fragariastrum Heist. ex Fabr. and Tormentilla L. New combinations in Argentina Hill, Horkelia Cham. et Schltdl., and Potentilla are also validated; some sections of these genera are lectotypified. The need of a new typification of Potentilla with subsequent conservation of the name in order to avoid nomenclatural instability is briefly discussed; finally, five new sections withinArgentina are described.
