  • Corydalis Incisa (Fumariaceae) in Bronx and Westchester Counties, New York

CORYDALIS INCISA (FUMARIACEAE) IN BRONX AND WESTCHESTER COUNTIES, NEW YORK DANIEL ATHA and JESSICA A. SCHULER The New York Botanical Garden Bronx, New York 10458 [email protected] SARAH LUMBAN TOBING NYC Parks Arsenal North 1234 Fifth Avenue, Room 229 New York, New York 10029 ABSTRACT Spontaneously growing plants of the East Asian Corydalis incisa (Thunb.) Pers. (Fumariaceae) are reported from Westchester Co., New York, for the first time. The species was previously only known from a small area along the Bronx River in Bronx Co., New York. The Westchester County plants documented here represent the second known wild population in North America. This discovery increases the number of Corydalis species in North America from ten to eleven and from four to five in the northeastern USA. It is the only spontaneous, purple- or white- flowered species in the Northeast. Corydalis incisa (Thunb.) Pers growing outside of cultivation in North America were first discovered on the floodplain of the Bronx River, near the Burke Avenue Bridge in Bronx Park, New York, by Michael Sundue during the 2005 Bronx River BioBlitz (Sundue, pers. comm). No voucher specimens were collected. Soon after, Steve Glenn collected the species at the same locality and noted "dozens" of individuals along both banks of the River, reported for the first time as naturalized in North America by Lamont et al. (2011). The population has since persisted and expanded. In 2014, a second population was discovered by the authors and is detailed below.

  • Major Lineages Within Apiaceae Subfamily Apioideae: a Comparison of Chloroplast Restriction Site and Dna Sequence Data1
    American Journal of Botany 86(7): 1014±1026. 1999. MAJOR LINEAGES WITHIN APIACEAE SUBFAMILY APIOIDEAE: A COMPARISON OF CHLOROPLAST RESTRICTION SITE AND DNA SEQUENCE DATA1 GREGORY M. PLUNKETT2 AND STEPHEN R. DOWNIE Department of Plant Biology, University of Illinois, Urbana, Illinois 61801 Traditional sources of taxonomic characters in the large and taxonomically complex subfamily Apioideae (Apiaceae) have been confounding and no classi®cation system of the subfamily has been widely accepted. A restriction site analysis of the chloroplast genome from 78 representatives of Apioideae and related groups provided a data matrix of 990 variable characters (750 of which were potentially parsimony-informative). A comparison of these data to that of three recent DNA sequencing studies of Apioideae (based on ITS, rpoCl intron, and matK sequences) shows that the restriction site analysis provides 2.6± 3.6 times more variable characters for a comparable group of taxa. Moreover, levels of divergence appear to be well suited to studies at the subfamilial and tribal levels of Apiaceae. Cladistic and phenetic analyses of the restriction site data yielded trees that are visually congruent to those derived from the other recent molecular studies. On the basis of these comparisons, six lineages and one paraphyletic grade are provisionally recognized as informal groups. These groups can serve as the starting point for future, more intensive studies of the subfamily. Key words: Apiaceae; Apioideae; chloroplast genome; restriction site analysis; Umbelliferae. Apioideae are the largest and best-known subfamily of tem, and biochemical characters exhibit similarly con- Apiaceae (5 Umbelliferae) and include many familiar ed- founding parallelisms (e.g., Bell, 1971; Harborne, 1971; ible plants (e.g., carrot, parsnips, parsley, celery, fennel, Nielsen, 1971).

  • Japanese Hedge Parsley
    v. August 9, 2010 Invasive Plants of Wisconsin Hedge-parsleys (Torilis sp.) Authors: Brendon Panke and Mark Renz1 Herbaceous biennials that establish as rosettes with parsley-like leaves. Plants flower in the 2nd year. Flowering stems are spreading, grooved, notably jointed, and covered in hair. Mature plants are typically 2-4’ tall. Legal Classification in WI: Japanese hedge-parsley Torilis japonica – Prohibited/Restricted Spreading hedge-parsley Torilis arvensis - Prohibited Leaves: Stem leaves are pinnately compound, alternate, fern-like, triangular, slightly hairy, and 2-5” long. Leaflets are pinnately divided and clasp the stem. Rosette leaves are similar to stem leaves. Flowers: Midsummer to late summer. White flowers found in small, loose, flat-topped umbels. Japanese hedge-parsley has two or more small bracts at the base of each umbel. Spreading hedge-parsley lacks bracts at the base of each umbel. Fruits & seeds: Each flower produces a pair of bristle-covered fruit that can attach to fur or clothing. Fruit are initially rosy or white-green, but become brown as they mature. Roots: Taproot. Similar species: Wild carrot (Daucus carota) is not as hairy and has larger, flatter, and denser umbels. Caraway (Carum carvi) is shorter, has dark, oblong seeds and leaves that are more finely divided than the hedge-parsleys. Sweet cicely (Osmorhiza) has leaves that are not as fern-like. Wild chervil (Anthriscus sylvestris) flowers in spring. The bristle-covered seed of the hedge-parsleys is a key characteristic to distinguish these two hedge-parsleys from other similar species. Ecological threat: Invades forest edges, fields, fencerows, roadsides, and disturbed areas.

Apart from the many synthetic chemical compounds, plant-based compounds could provide an Antiviral drug discovery array of \suitable candidates for testing against the virus. Studies have confirmedthe role of many plants against Antiviral drug development respiratory viruses when employed either as crude extracts or their active ingredients in pure form. The purpose Plant secondary metabolites of this review article is to highlight the importance of phytomedicine against COVID-19. The main aim is to SARS coronavirus review the mechanistic aspects of most important phytochemical compounds that have showed potential against coronaviruses. Glycyrrhizin from the roots of Glycyrrhiza glabra has shown promising potential against the previously epidemic coronavirus, SARS-CoV. Other important plants such as Artemisia annua, Isatis indigotica, Lindera aggregate, Pelargonium sidoides, and Glychirrhiza spp. have been employed against SARS-CoV.
