  • 2010 the Michigan Botanist 73
    2010 THE MICHIGAN BOTANIST 73 NOMENCLATURE OF THE THICKET CREEPER, PARTHENOCISSUS INSERTA (VITACEAE) James S. Pringle Royal Botanical Gardens P.O. Box 399 Hamilton, Ontario, Canada L8N 3H8 ABSTRACT Parthenocissus inserta (A. Kern.) Fritsch, rather than P. vitacea (Knerr) Hitchc., is the correct name for the thicket creeper, a species related to the Virginia creeper, P. quinquefolia . KEY WORDS: Parthenocissus , Vitaceae Two species of Parthenocissus are native to eastern and central North Amer - ica. One of these, to which the common name Virginia creeper is more appropri - ately applied, is P. quinquefolia (L.) Planch. Its natural range extends from Mex - ico probably to southern Maine, southern Ontario, and southern Minnesota, although it has escaped from cultivation farther north. The other species, the nomenclature of which is discussed here, has a more northern and western range, from Pennsylvania, Texas, and California north to ca. 50°N in Ontario and Man - itoba. “False Virginia creeper,” “thicket creeper,” and “grape-woodbine” have been proposed as vernacular names for the northern species, but none of these names has become widely used. Because of their abundance and the size of the plants, these species are ecologically important, influencing succession and pro - viding cover and food for wildlife. They are widely cultivated as ornamental vines in North America and Europe, although they may sometimes become a problem, as when shrubs or specimen trees are engulfed. Until early in the twentieth century few botanists distinguished between these species, and the assumption that “the” Virginia creeper is Parthenocissus quin - quefolia continues to result in reports of P. quinquefolia from localities north of its true range.

  • Plants That Weren't Tough Enough
    University of Alaska Fairbanks School of Natural Resources and Extension Georgeson Botanical Notes No. 82 (1996) - Revised 2014 Plants that Weren’t Tough Enough by Pat Holloway and Pat Wagner Any researcher working in the Far North is well aware of the beneficial attributes of snow as an insulating blanket for both plants and small animals. We learned in graphic detail just how important snow is in Alaska this past winter. The total accumu- lation of snow through January 1996 was only 6 inches (15.2 cm). During that time the minimum winter air temperature at the Garden reached -43oF (-42oC) in December and -48oF (-44oC) in January. Thirty-three percent of the experimental plants in the Garden were killed by this low snowfall. Damage could have been caused by extreme desiccation, frost heaving or an inability to tolerate low temperature extremes. Whatever the cause, the plants are dead, and we will have lots of room next season for new experiments. Some of the plants were heartbreaking losses such as the lilies, tulips, columbines and grape hyacinths. Some grape hyacinths finally emerged in mid summer, but it was quite obvious the damage was severe. Other plants such as tansy, we won’t miss at all because of its invasive nature. Nearly all of the plants that were growing well prior to last winter will be tested again at a later date. One thing is for certain, all the plants listed below will now come with a warning - needs snow cover to survive! Even more remarkable than this list is the one showing the plants that endured this severe winter.

NeoBiota 56: 1–25. https://doi.org/10.3897/neobiota.56.34261 Abstract The woody vine Celastrus orbiculatus (Celastraceae), Oriental bittersweet, is an alien species that recently has been found to be spreading in Europe. Many aspects of its biology and ecology are still obscure. This study evaluates the distribution and habitats, as well as size and age of stands of C. orbiculatus in Lithuania. We investigated whether meteorological factors affect radial stem increments and determined seedling recruit- ment in order to judge the plant’s potential for further spread in Europe. We studied the flower gender of C. orbiculatus in four populations in Lithuania and found that all sampled individuals were monoecious, although with dominant either functionally female or male flowers. Dendrochronological methods enabled us to reveal the approximate time of the first establishment of populations of C. orbiculatus in Lithuania.

  • Structural Changes of Adhesive Discs During Attachment of Boston Ivy
    pISSN 2287-5123·eISSN 2287-4445 http://dx.doi.org/10.9729/AM.2014.44.4.111 Structural Changes of Adhesive Discs during Attachment of Boston Ivy InSun Kim* Department of Biology, College of Natural Sciences, Keimyung University, Daegu 704-701, Korea This study investigates the developmental pattern of adhesive discs (ADs) to highlight the ontogeny and structural changes that occur during the growth of Boston ivy. Initiation to postmortem features of ADs were examined through light and scanning electron microscopy. The study also reveals a new finding of the dislocation of peripheral tissues of adaxial origin. Four phases of attachment are suggested with regards to its climbing behavior: 1) pre-attachment, 2) upon attachment, 3) after attachment, and 4) final attachment. During initiation, several ADs originate from tendril primordia without epidermal differentiation. However, different growth rates in the epidermis results in completely different ADs. ADs were discerned by size, shape, and color during expansion, but cells in the adaxial surface remained alive longer than the other side. Upon contact, the ADs demonstrate simultaneous growth and deterioration, but once attachment is *Correspondence to: established the latter process subdues to final stages.

  • Toxicodendron Risk Assessment
    Common Name Latin Name MN NWAC Risk Porcelain Berry, Ampelopsis brevipedunculata (Maxim.) Trautv. Assessment Worksheet (04-2011) Porcelain Ampelopsis, Porcelain- (synonyms: Ampelopsis glandulosa & var. vine, Amur Peppervine, Wild Grape brevipedunculata, var. glandulosa, and var. heterophylla, Ampelopsis sinica, and Vitis heterophylla) Reviewer Affiliation/Organization Date (mm/dd/yyyy) James Calkins Minnehaha Creek Watershed District 07/21/2014 Porcelain berry (Ampelopsis brevipedunculata) is a vigorous, deciduous, woody vine in the grape family (Vitaceae). Plants have variable, occasionally simple, cordate (heart-shaped), but most often maple/grape-like, 3- to 5-lobed, alternately arranged, toothed leaves (shiny on undersides with minute hairs along the veins). Plants have a fairly loose, rambling habit, are relatively fast growing, and climb by branched tendrils (modified leaves) attached opposite the leaves; plants can reach a height of 10-25 feet or more. Native to temperate Asia (China, Korea, Japan, and eastern Russia), porcelain berry was introduced as a landscape plant in 1870 and has since escaped cultivation and become naturalized in parts of the eastern United States. The flowers are perfect and borne in loose cymes from July until frost (September) in Minnesota and are greenish in color and small and insignificant; plants flower on new growth and are insect pollinated. The fruit is a shiny, 1- to 4-seeded berry that matures in September and October in Minnesota. As they mature, the fruits in a single cluster may be variously pale green to creamy yellow, lilac-pink, lavender, sky blue, purple and indigo-blue; mature fruits are various shades of blue and purple. The distinctively-colored fruits develop a speckled to mottled pattern that resembles the crackled appearance of porcelain which gives rise to the common name porcelain berry.

  • Checklist of Montana Vascular Plants
    Checklist of Montana Vascular Plants June 1, 2011 By Scott Mincemoyer Montana Natural Heritage Program Helena, MT This checklist of Montana vascular plants is organized by Division, Class and Family. Species are listed alphabetically within this hierarchy. Synonyms, if any, are listed below each species and are slightly indented from the main species list. The list is generally composed of species which have been documented in the state and are vouchered by a specimen collection deposited at a recognized herbaria. Additionally, some species are included on the list based on their presence in the state being reported in published and unpublished botanical literature or through data submitted to MTNHP. The checklist is made possible by the contributions of numerous botanists, natural resource professionals and plant enthusiasts throughout Montana’s history. Recent work by Peter Lesica on a revised Flora of Montana (Lesica 2011) has been invaluable for compiling this checklist as has Lavin and Seibert’s “Grasses of Montana” (2011). Additionally, published volumes of the Flora of North America (FNA 1993+) have also proved very beneficial during this process. The taxonomy and nomenclature used in this checklist relies heavily on these previously mentioned resources, but does not strictly follow anyone of them. The Checklist of Montana Vascular Plants can be viewed or downloaded from the Montana Natural Heritage Program’s website at: http://mtnhp.org/plants/default.asp This publication will be updated periodically with more frequent revisions anticipated initially due to the need for further review of the taxonomy and nomenclature of particular taxonomic groups (e.g. Arabis s.l ., Crataegus , Physaria ) and the need to clarify the presence or absence in the state of some species.

  • Vitaceae) Based on Three Chloroplast Markers1
    American Journal of Botany 93(2): 278–287. 2006. PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS OF THE GRAPE FAMILY (VITACEAE) BASED ON THREE CHLOROPLAST MARKERS1 AKIKO SOEJIMA2 AND JUN WEN3,4 2Department of Biological Science, School of Science, Osaka Prefecture University, Sakai, Osaka 599-8531, Japan; 3Department of Botany, National Museum of Natural History, MRC166, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20013-7012 USA; and Laboratory of Systematic and Evolutionary Botany, Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Nanxinchun 20, Xiangshan, Beijing 100093, P. R. China Seventy-nine species representing 12 genera of Vitaceae were sequenced for the trnL-F spacer, 37 of which were subsequently sequenced for the atpB-rbcL spacer and the rps16 intron. Phylogenetic analysis of the combined data provided a fairly robust phylogeny for Vitaceae. Cayratia, Tetrastigma, and Cyphostemma form a clade. Cyphostemma and Tetrastigma are each monophyletic, and Cayratia may be paraphyletic. Ampelopsis is paraphyletic with the African Rhoicissus and the South American Cissus striata nested within it. The pinnately leaved Ampelopsis form a subclade, and the simple and palmately leaved Ameplopsis constitutes another with both subclades containing Asian and American species. Species of Cissus from Asia and Central America are monophyletic, but the South American C. striata does not group with other Cissus species.
