Katia Masias Brocker UNIVERSIDAD NACIONAL AGRARIA LA MOLINA Facultad de Ciencias Forestales Caracterización de las propiedades tintóreas del extracto de nogal (Juglans neotropica Diels) proveniente de la cuenca alta del río Zaña Tesis para optar el Título de INGENIERO FORESTAL Katia Masias Brocker Lima- Perú 2007 RESUMEN En los últimos años se observa un incremento en la demanda de los colorantes naturales, destacándose el uso del nogal (Juglans neotropica Diels ), del cual es posible obtener una amplia variedad de matices para teñir telas a partir del colorante de hojas, fruto y corteza. A pesar de la importancia del colorante obtenido de nogal, la información técnica existente es únicamente a nivel artesanal, no habiendo información sobre las propiedades fisicas químicas y rendimientos para su caracterización y aceptación. El presente estudio evaluó las propiedades tintóreas (porcentaje sólidos, índice refracción, pH y absorción luz ultravioleta) de extractos obtenidos de hoja, fruto y corteza de tres clases diamétricas, así mismo evaluó la calidad de tinción y los colores obtenidos en función al tipo de tela teñida. El área de estudio se ubico en la parte alta de la cuenca del Zaña en la provincia de San Miguel, región de Cajamarca. Para el estudio se recolectaron muestras de hojas, frutos y corteza de 15 árboles de diferentes clases diamétricas. Los resultados del análisis estadístico demostraron que el porcentaje de sólidos y el pH varían en función a la parte del árbol utilizada sin embargo no varían en función a la clase diamétrica; y el índice de refracción es utilizado como control del proceso. La absorción de luz varía en función a la clase diamétrica y la parte del árbol. Asimismo, la solidez del colorante a la luz varía en función a la parte del árbol y al tipo de tela usado. A partir de los resultados se concluyo que es preferible utilizar las hojas de nogal para la obtención de colorante y la lana de oveja para la tinción. V ÍNDICE Página l.

The most important family was Asteraceae with 22 species, followed by Fabaceae s.l. with 11, and Solanaceae with eight. More than 90 general medicinal indications were recorded to treat a wide range of illnesses and ailments. The highest number of species and applications were reported for digestive system disorders (stomach ailments and liver problems), musculoskeletal body system (rheumatism and the complex of contusions, luxations, sprains, and swellings), kidney and other urological problems, and gynecological disorders. Some medicinal species had magic connotations, e.g. for cleaning and protection against ailments, to bring good luck, or for Andean offerings to Pachamama, ‘Mother Nature’. In some indications, the separation between medicinal and magic plants was very narrow. Most remedies were prepared from a single species, however some applications were always prepared with a mixture of plants, e.g.

The achievement of this work would not have been possible for me without the provided PhD research fellowship. The field trip to South America was kindly supported by the DAAD. For the provision of the topic I would like to thank my supervisor Pierre L. Ibisch wholeheartedly. I benefited tremendously from his kind support and friendly advice just like his enthusiasm for Fosterella and Bolivia has infected me. My sincere thanks to my supervisor Kurt Weising for support and confidence throughout the whole project. I want to thank all further colleagues involved in the Fosterella project for the reliable cooperation: Georg Zizka and Katharina Schulte (Research Institute Senckenberg, Frankfurt/M.), Christoph Nowicki (University of Applied Sciences, Eberswalde), Martina Rex and Natascha Wagner (University of Kassel). Special thanks go to Christoph Nowicki for help with the distribution maps. We are very grateful to our longtime cooperation partners abroad, without whom the whole Fosterella project could not have been hardly that successful: Roberto Vásquez (Sociedad Boliviana de Botánica, Santa Cruz, Bolivia), Stephan G.

P. H. Dorsett and W. J, Morse during this period sent from the Orient more than 1,700 strains of soybeans, besides a collection of Japanese persim- mon varieties {Diospyroa kaki, Nos. 83707-83711, 83783-83792, 85698-85722, 85811-85834), and smaller quantities of forage crops and ornamentals. From Persia and Turkestan W. E. Whitehouse sent in a collection of seeds and scions of peaches (Amygdalus spp., No. 82646-82648, 86284-86302), plums (Prunus spp., 82672-82679, 83751, 83752, 86380-86390), and pistache {Pistacia vera, Nos. 83734-83750, 85906-85928, 86368-86379). He also sent in a collec- tion of watermelon seeds (Citrullus vulgaris, Nos. 82560-82569, 86311-86321), and melon seeds (Cucumis melo, Nos. 86323-86338), which will be used for experimental purposes. R. K. Beattie sent in his last shipment of Japanese chestnuts (Oastanea crenata, Nos. 85767-85804, 85969-85979) before leaving the Orient. H. Ii.

  • Impact of Climate Change on Extinction Risk of Montane Tree Species
    IMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON EXTINCTION RISK OF MONTANE TREE SPECIES NATALIA TEJEDOR GARAVITO Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Bournemouth University In collaboration with Botanic Gardens Conservation International AUGUST 2014 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognize that its copyright rests with its author and due acknowledgement must always be made of the use of any material contained in, or derived from, this thesis. 2 Impact of climate change on extinction risk of montane tree species Natalia Tejedor Garavito Abstract The potential impacts of climate change on many species worldwide remains unknown, especially in those tropical regions that are centers of endemism and are highly biodiverse. This thesis provides an insight into the extinction risk of selected tree species using different species distribution modelling techniques and reviewing the current conservation status on montane forest in the Tropical Andes. Starting with a global analysis, the potential impacts of climate change on montane ecoregions is investigated, by identifying those that are more vulnerable to the expected changes in temperature and precipitation, from global predictions under different climate change scenarios. It then gives an insight on the current and potential threats to biodiversity in the Andean region, including the identification of those that are most likely to be responsible for increasing the extinction risk of the species. With the use of the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria, selected tree species were assessed to identify their extinction risk. Information on the species’ current distribution was collated and used to estimate their potential distribution under climate change, by using different modelling techniques.

En este proceso de dispersión antropocórica, las distribuciones geográficas de varias de estas especies fueron notablemente ampliadas en Eurasia, y al mismo tiempo se seleccionaron especies y variedades de plantas productoras de semillas con características más favorables al consumo humano. Diseminación de semillas grandes en florestas paleárticas La región paleártica, que engloba gran parte de Eurasia, África septentrional y el norte de la península arábiga, abriga diferentes tipos de florestas que pueden ser categorizadas de muy diversas formas según el criterio que se aplique.
