This challenge is most serious in tribe Caryophylleae since the supposed genera seem to be highly artificial, and the available morphological evidence cannot effectively be used for delimitation and exact determination of taxa. The main goal of the present study was to re-assess the monophyly of the genera currently recognized in this tribe using molecular phylogenetic data. We used the sequences of nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and the chloroplast gene rps16 for 135 and 94 accessions, respectively, representing all 16 genera currently recognized in the tribe Caryophylleae, with a rich sampling of Gypsophila as one of the most heterogeneous groups in the tribe.

Pollen of seven species were determined from Turkey and reported for the first time. Pollen shape has two different ornamentation at genus Bolanthus as prolate-spheroidal and oblate-spheroidal. Pollen grains are polipantoporate and isopolar symmetrical. The pollen ornamentation is scabrate-perforate. Pollen diameter, pore diameter, pore numbers, exine thickness, operculum diameter, distance between two pores, spinule numbers, punctum numbers are varying characters between Bolanthus species.

Gypsophila Perfoliata (Caryophyllaceae) in Poland
Polish Botanical Journal 61(2): 257–262, 2016 e-ISSN 2084-4352 DOI: 10.1515/pbj-2016-0030 ISSN 1641-8190 GYPSOPHILA PERFOLIATA (CARYOPHYLLACEAE) IN POLAND Wacław Bartoszek & Alina Stachurska-Swakoń1 Abstract. Gypsophila perfoliata L. is a maritime sand-dune species naturally occurring in Asia and southeastern Europe. In Eu- rope it also is found in ruderal habitats rarely, mainly along railway lines. In Poland the species was first recorded in the 1950s; it was found only at railway stations where iron ore was offloaded from the Kryvyi Rih region, Ukraine. Recently it was found in a new type of habitat: the roadside of a main road in the Carpathians. The paper characterizes the current status, distribution and habitat spectrum of this alien species in Poland. Key words: alien species, distribution, Gypsophila perfoliata, habitat, Poland, synanthropization Wacław Bartoszek & Alina Stachurska-Swakoń, Institute of Botany, Jagiellonian University, Kopernika 27, 31-501 Kraków, Poland; e-mail: [email protected] & [email protected] Introduction The appearance of alien species in local floras is region in Ukraine.

Email: [email protected] Abstract The research presented in this paper had the purpose of Key words inventory and knowledge of spontaneous and subspontaneous plant species of Botanical Garden "Vasile Fati" Jibou, Salaj, Romania. Following systematic Jibou Botanical Garden, investigations undertaken in the botanical garden a large number of spontaneous flora, spontaneous taxons were found from the Romanian flora (650 species of adventive and vascular plants and 20 species of moss). Also were inventoried 38 species of subspontaneous plants, adventive plants, permanently established in Romania and 176 vascular plant floristic analysis, Romania species that have migrated from culture and multiply by themselves throughout the garden. In the garden greenhouses were found 183 subspontaneous species and weeds, both from the Romanian flora as well as tropical plants introduced by accident. Thus the total number of wild species rises to 1055, a large number compared to the occupied area. Some rare spontaneous plants and endemic to the Romanian flora (Galium abaujense, Cephalaria radiata, Crocus banaticus) were found. Cultivated species that once migrated from culture, accommodated to environmental conditions and conquered new territories; standing out is the Cyrtomium falcatum fern, once escaped from the greenhouses it continues to develop on their outer walls. Jibou Botanical Garden is the second largest exotic species can adapt and breed further without any botanical garden in Romania, after "Anastasie Fătu" care [11].

Monthly Weed Post Baby's Breath (Gypsophila Paniculata)
1 Monthly Weed Post May 2015 Baby’s breath (Gypsophila paniculata) History: Baby’s breath is native to Eurasia and was introduced to North America as an ornamental. It is a showy plant that is still used as an ornamental in some parts of the United States and is popular in the cut flower industry. The first recorded introduction of this species was in the Canadian province of Manitoba in 1887, and in 1953 its weedy attributes were noted in Saskatchewan. It is now widespread across Canada and the northern U.S. Identification: A member of the Pink (Caryophyllaceae) family, baby’s breath is a multi-branched, perennial forb that can grow up to 3’ tall; often the plant appears globe-like in shape due to it branching nature (Fig. 1). Leaves are opposite, lance-shaped and arise at swollen nodes (a characteristic of the Pink family) (Fig. 2). The number of leaves decreases with increasing plant height and during flowering. Sweetly- Figure 1. Plant, demonstrating globe-like growth form. scented flowers are small and white with 5 sepals and 5 petals (Fig. 3). Fruits occur as small capsules that contain 2 to 5 black, kidney-shaped seeds. It has a taproot. Impacts: Baby’s breath can form dense stands and displace desirable grasses and forbs. Because of the large taproot and ability to produce millions of seeds, this plant is difficult to remove once established. It is reportedly mildly toxic to cats and dogs due to the toxin gyposenin, which causes irritation to the gastrointestinal tract. On a positive note, baby’s breath has been associated with an increase in arthropod abundance and diversity, livestock can eat baby’s breath in the vegetative phase, and there are reports that saponins found in the root system may increase the efficacy of cancer drugs.

Biodivers Conserv (2009) 18:1441–1458 DOI 10.1007/s10531-008-9488-z ORIGINAL PAPER Alpine–subalpine species richness of the Romanian Carpathians and the current conservation status of rare species Gheorghe Coldea Æ Ilie-Adrian Stoica Æ Mihai Pus¸cas¸ Æ Tudor Ursu Æ Adrian Oprea Æ The IntraBioDiv Consortium Received: 26 February 2008 / Accepted: 18 September 2008 / Published online: 7 October 2008 Ó Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2008 Abstract In the context of global warming, alpine–subalpine plant species are some of the most threatened. The distribution of these species in the Romanian Carpathians is centralized and analyzed for the ﬁrst time. A network with 472 grid cells of 12.5 9 11.5 km (60 lati- tude 9 100 longitude) has been used to register the distribution of 550 selected high mountain taxa. The analysis starts with a brief description of the most important determinants of alpine– subalpine species richness, continues with a comparison between the different sub groups of the Romanian Carpathians and a discussion of their particularities. The purpose of the paper is to identify areas in need of protection as well as rare and vulnerable species outside the network of protected areas. A description of the current network of protected areas from the Romanian Carpathians is provided, with ideas for improvement.

One invasive plant that is of concern to the Great Lakes system is Gypsophila paniculata L. (perennial baby’s breath). The presence of G. paniculata negatively impacts native species and has the potential to alter ecosystem dynamics. Our research goals were to (1) estimate the genetic structure of invasive G. paniculata along the Michigan dune system and (2) identify landscape features that influence gene flow in this area. We analyzed 12 populations at 14 nuclear and two chloroplast microsatellite loci. We found strong genetic structure among populations (global FST = 0.228), and pairwise comparisons among all populations yielded significant FST values. Results from clustering analysis via STRUCTURE and discriminant analysis of principal components (DAPC) suggest two main genetic clusters that are separated by the Leelanau Peninsula, and this is supported by the distribution of chloroplast haplotypes.
