0 NATALIE DO VALLE CAPELLI ULTRASTRUCTURE AND CHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF OSMOPHORES IN APOCYNACEAE SÃO PAULO 2017 0 NATALIE DO VALLE CAPELLI ULTRASTRUCTURE AND CHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF OSMOPHORES IN APOCYNACEAE ULTRAESTRUTURA E ANÁLISE QUÍMICA DE OSMÓFOROS EM APOCYNACEAE Dissertação apresentada ao Instituto de Biociências da Universidade de São Paulo, para a obtenção do título de Mestre em Ciências, na área de Botânica. Orientação: Prof. Dr. Diego Demarco São Paulo 2017 1 Abstract Apocynaceae presents the flowers with the highest degree of synorganization among the eudicots and highly elaborated pollination mechanisms associated with the high diversity of glands. The osmophore stands out as responsible to produce a floral scent which attracts pollinators and, despite its fundamental relevance for pollination, its structure and mechanism of production and release of the perfume is essentially unknown in Apocynaceae. This present work aims to characterize morphologically and ultrastructurally the osmophores of Apocynaceae, besides chemically identifying the compounds that constitute the floral scent. Species from two subfamilies were selected to describe the diversity of osmophores and types of scent in the family. The osmophores were firstly located histochemically and, later, this region was processed for transmission electron microscopy. Micromorphological analysis was performed by scanning electron microscopy, and the identification of volatile oils made by GC-MS. Osmophores are located on the adaxial surface of the free portion of the petals. They varied in the shape of epidermal cells, striation of the cuticle and presence of trichomes. This gland is mostly formed by secretory epidermis and parenchyma, except in Plumeria, where the osmophores are exclusively epidermal. The secretory cells presented thick walls in the Asclepiadoideae and secretion produced by plastids and SER in all species. -

A Molecular Phylogeny of the Solanaceae
TAXON 57 (4) • November 2008: 1159–1181 Olmstead & al. • Molecular phylogeny of Solanaceae MOLECULAR PHYLOGENETICS A molecular phylogeny of the Solanaceae Richard G.

A phylogeny of Solanaceae is presented based on the chloroplast DNA regions ndhF and trnLF. With 89 genera and 190 species included, this represents a nearly comprehensive genus-level sampling and provides a framework phylogeny for the entire family that helps integrate many previously-published phylogenetic studies within So- lanaceae. The four genera comprising the family Goetzeaceae and the monotypic families Duckeodendraceae, Nolanaceae, and Sclerophylaceae, often recognized in traditional classifications, are shown to be included in Solanaceae. The current results corroborate previous studies that identify a monophyletic subfamily Solanoideae and the more inclusive “x = 12” clade, which includes Nicotiana and the Australian tribe Anthocercideae. These results also provide greater resolution among lineages within Solanoideae, confirming Jaltomata as sister to Solanum and identifying a clade comprised primarily of tribes Capsiceae (Capsicum and Lycianthes) and Physaleae. -
Biodiversity Summary: Port Phillip and Westernport, Victoria
Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List What is the summary for and where does it come from? This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available. For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are notnot included included in in the the list. list. • The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect. All species names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all species locations. -

New England Peppermint (Eucalyptus Nova-Anglica) Grassy
Advice to the Minister for Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities from the Threatened Species Scientific Committee on an Amendment to the List of Threatened Ecological Communities under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) 1. Name of the ecological community New England Peppermint (Eucalyptus nova-anglica) Grassy Woodlands This advice follows the assessment of two public nominations to list the ‘New England Peppermint (Eucalyptus nova-anglica) Woodlands on Sediment on the Northern Tablelands’ and the ‘New England Peppermint (Eucalyptus nova-anglica) Woodlands on Basalt on the Northern Tablelands’ as threatened ecological communities under the EPBC Act. The Threatened Species Scientific Committee (the Committee) recommends that the national ecological community be renamed New England Peppermint (Eucalyptus nova-anglica) Grassy Woodlands. The name reflects the fact that the definition of the ecological community has been expanded to include all grassy woodlands dominated or co-dominated by Eucalyptus nova-anglica (New England Peppermint), in New South Wales and Queensland. Also the occurrence of the ecological community extends beyond the New England Tableland Bioregion, into adjacent areas of the New South Wales North Coast and the Nandewar bioregions. Part of the national ecological community is listed as endangered in New South Wales, as ‘New England Peppermint (Eucalyptus nova-anglica) Woodland on Basalts and Sediments in the New England Tableland Bioregion’ (NSW Scientific Committee, 2003); and, as an endangered Regional Ecosystem in Queensland ‘RE 13.3.2 Eucalyptus nova-anglica ± E. dalrympleana subsp. heptantha open-forest or woodland’ (Qld Herbarium, 2009). 2. Public Consultation A technical workshop with experts on the ecological community was held in 2005. -

Even when a system has been formed, there is still something to add, to alter, or to reject. Every generation enjoys the use of a vast hoard bequeathed to it by antiquity, and transmits that hoard, augmented by fresh acquisitions, to future ages. In these pursuits, therefore, the first speculators lie under great disadvantages, and, even when they fail, are entitled to praise.” Macaulay's “Essay on Milton” Sydney William Applegate Gullick, Government Printer 1917 Part 21 CXIII.
