Department of Planning and Zoning Subject: Howard County Landscape Manual Updates: Recommended Street Tree List (Appendix B) and Recommended Plant List (Appendix C) - Effective July 1, 2010 To: DLD Review Staff Homebuilders Committee From: Kent Sheubrooks, Acting Chief Division of Land Development Date: July 1, 2010 Purpose: The purpose of this policy memorandum is to update the Recommended Plant Lists presently contained in the Landscape Manual. The plant lists were created for the first edition of the Manual in 1993 before information was available about invasive qualities of certain recommended plants contained in those lists (Norway Maple, Bradford Pear, etc.). Additionally, diseases and pests have made some other plants undesirable (Ash, Austrian Pine, etc.). The Howard County General Plan 2000 and subsequent environmental and community planning publications such as the Route 1 and Route 40 Manuals and the Green Neighborhood Design Guidelines have promoted the desirability of using native plants in landscape plantings. Therefore, this policy seeks to update the Recommended Plant Lists by identifying invasive plant species and disease or pest ridden plants for their removal and prohibition from further planting in Howard County and to add other available native plants which have desirable characteristics for street tree or general landscape use for inclusion on the Recommended Plant Lists. Please note that a comprehensive review of the street tree and landscape tree lists were conducted for the purpose of this update, however, only

NATURAL DURABILITY of Cedrus Atlantica WOOD RELATED to the BIOACTIVITY of ITS ESSENTIAL OIL AGAINST WOOD DECAYING FUNGI
ISSN impresa 0717-3644 Maderas. Ciencia y tecnología 18(4): 567 - 576, 2016 ISSN online 0718-221X DOI: 10.4067/S0718-221X2016005000049 NATURAL DURABILITY OF Cedrus atlantica WOOD RELATED TO THE BIOACTIVITY OF ITS ESSENTIAL OIL AGAINST WOOD DECAYING FUNGI Abdelwahed Fidah1,4,♠, Noura Salhi1, Mohamed Rahouti1, Bousselham Kabouchi2, Mohsine Ziani3,Mohamed Aberchane4, Abderrahim Famiri4 ABSTRACT The Atlas cedar, Cedrus atlantica is a resinous species of Pinaceae originated from North Africa and well known for its noble timber. This work was conducted to assess the natural durability of its wood, to study the chemical composition of essential oil extracted from its sawdust wood and to test the bioactivity of this essential oil against four wood decaying fungi: Gloeophyllum trabeum, Oligoporus placenta, Coniophora puteana and Trametes versicolor. The assessment of natural durability of wood was conducted according to the methods described in the European standards, CEN/TS 15083-1 and NF EN 350-1. Mass losses of wood specimens, after 16 weeks of exposure to fungi attack, in laboratory test, showed that Cedrus atlantica wood is very durable to durable against wood decay fungi attack. The extraction of essential oil from sawdust by hydro-distillation yielded about 3,35% and the chemical analysis of this essential oil by GC-MS showed that E-γ-Atlantone (19,73%); E-α- Atlantone (16,86%), 5-Isocedranol (11,68%); 9-iso-Thujopsanone (4,45%); Cedranone (4,13%) and Z α- Atlantone (4,02%) were the main major identified components. The antifungal activity tested by the direct contact technique on agar medium showed a strong inhibition of wood decaying fungi, especially Gloeophyllum trabeum inhibited at 1/1000 v/v concentration.

GC-MS Analysis for Polyaromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH) in Moroccan Medicinal Tars

Trade and use of medicinal tars in Europe and North America is restricted due to potential carcinogenicity. The only presently allowed uses are as a fragrance substance in cosmetics. This study carried out semi-structured interviews with producers, herbalists and traditional midwives/healers (ferraga) in the High Atlas mountains of Morocco, to assess saliency of use, what species are used and how medicinal tar is used in the Marrakesh region. We found that Juniperus phoenicea and Juniperus oxycedrus are used most frequently for tar production. Frequent trade was reported by retailers, and the traditional herbal intermediaries (both herbalists and ferraga) report that tar is used most commonly for hair care, skin diseases and fumigation.

Cedrus Atlantica Glauca Blue Atlas Cedar
Cedrus atlantica Glauca Blue Atlas Cedar Cedrus atlantica are native to the Atlas mountains of Algeria and Morocco. The ‘Glauca Group’ December 2012 are one of the most striking in appearance of all the blue conifers. A large evergreen, which is conical as a young plant, later broadens with age into a spreading, flat topped tree. Ideally it needs to be grown in a large open area where it can properly develop its magnificent form and there is space for it to be admired. Identified by its short, silvery-blue needles which spiral around the stems and the barrel shaped cones it produces, Cedrus atlantica Glauca is a robust plant capable of growing in a range of soil types as long as wet soils are avoided. Blue Atlas Cedar 2.5-3.0m feathered plants Plant Profile Name: Cedrus atlantica Glauca Common Name: Blue Atlas Cedar Family: Pinaceae Height: 20m+ Demands: Does well on a wide range of soils but will not tolerate waterlogging Foliage: Evergreen with short, silvery-blue needles.

Collecting Rare Conifers in North Africa
Collecting Rare Conifers in North Africa ’ Robert G. Nicholson Conifer seeds gathered on mountain peaks in Morocco may yield varieties more cold-hardy than those now in cultivation As the cold came on, and as each more southern zone became fitted for the inhabitants of the north, these would take the places of the former inhabitants of the temperate regions.

(Cupressaceae), Cedrus atlantica Manetti (Pinaceae) and Marrubium vulgare L. ( Lamiaceae). Total flavonoid and flavonol contents in these extracts were determined using AlCl 3 method and their amount calculated as quercetin µEQ/mg. Synthetic antioxidants such as rutin and BHA were used as standard. The results of antioxidant activity by DPPH radical scavenging indicated better activities for Cedrus atlantica Manetti and Marrubium vulgare L. (IC 50 = 8.9 and 20.3 µg/ml respectively) than J. phoenicea L. and J. oxycedrus L (IC 50 = 403.8 and 481.3 µg/ml respectively) by comparison with the standards rutin and BHA (IC 50 = 1.38 and 1.87 µg/ml respectively). The results of the total flavonoid contents by AlCl 3 method showed that all these species contained relatively low amounts of flavonoids and that J.

Keywords: FTIR microspectroscopy, Raman microspectroscopy, Pinales, imaging, cell wall. 1 SUMMARY A detailed characterization of conifer (Pinales) pollen by vibrational microspectroscopy is presented. The main problems that arise during vibrational measurements were scatter and saturation issues in Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and fluorescence and penetration depth issues in Raman. Single pollen grains larger than approx. 15 µm can be measured by FTIR microspectroscopy using conventional light sources, while smaller grains may be measured by employing synchrotron light sources.

Naturally occurring on dry, calcareous mountain slopes in the Atlas mountains of north-western Africa. First the trunk is grey and smooth, but rougher in older trees. Later, the bark flakes off in small plates, revealing the reddish brown bark. The branches are fairly loose and open, twigs are first greyish green to greyish brown but turn grey in the second year. The needles, 2 - 2.5 cm long, grow in bundles of 20 - 40 together. Upright cones appear in autumn. Young cones are green but turn purplish brown to brown later.
