Sch. and their antibacterial activity. Vinay SP1, Chandrashekar N1*, and Chandrappa CP2. 1Research and Development center, Department of Chemistry, Sridevi Institute of Engineering and Technology, Sira Road, Tumkur-572106, Karnataka, India. 2Department of Biotechnology, Shridevi Institute of Engineering and Technology, Sira Road, Tumkur- 572106, Karnataka, India. ABSTRACT Green synthesis is one of the rapid, reliable, and best methods for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles at ambient temperature without application of hazardous agents. The present study described the formation of silver nanoparticles by the flower extracts of Tabebuia argentea. Synthesized silver nanoparticles were characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy, Scaning electron microscopy and X-Ray diffraction studies. Silver nanoparticles synthesized have shown significant antibacterial effect and the outcome of our study propose that the produced silver nanoparticles bestow superior substitutes in drug development. Keywords: Tabebuia argentea, flower extract, UV-vis, SEM, XRD, antibacterial. *Corresponding author July–August 2017 RJPBCS 8(4) Page No. 527 ISSN: 0975-8585 INTRODUCTION Nanoparticles are the particles of size between 1 and 100 nanometers. Nanoparticles are more active and exhibit unexpected properties because of high surface to volume ratio and quantum size effect. Nanoparticles (NP’s) of metals like Ag and Cu are found to exhibit enhanced optical and catalytic activity due to the quantum size effect. They have distinct physical, chemical, electronic, electrical, mechanical, magnetic, thermal, dielectric, optical and biological properties [1]. Metal NP’s are considered as building blocks for the next generation optoelectronics [2], electronics [3], and various chemical and biochemical sensors [4] as they have advantages over bulk materials.

    Systematic Botany (2007), 32(3): pp. 660–670 # Copyright 2007 by the American Society of Plant Taxonomists Taxonomic Revisions in the Polyphyletic Genus Tabebuia s. l. (Bignoniaceae) SUSAN O. GROSE1 and R. G. OLMSTEAD Department of Biology, University of Washington, Box 355325, Seattle, Washington 98195 U.S.A. 1Author for correspondence ([email protected]) Communicating Editor: James F. Smith ABSTRACT. Recent molecular studies have shown Tabebuia to be polyphyletic, thus necessitating taxonomic revision. These revisions are made here by resurrecting two genera to contain segregate clades of Tabebuia. Roseodendron Miranda consists of the two species with spathaceous calices of similar texture to the corolla. Handroanthus Mattos comprises the principally yellow flowered species with an indumentum of hairs covering the leaves and calyx. The species of Handroanthus are also characterized by having extremely dense wood containing copious quantities of lapachol. Tabebuia is restricted to those species with white to red or rarely yellow flowers and having an indumentum of stalked or sessile lepidote scales. The following new combinations are published: Handroanthus arianeae (A. H. Gentry) S. Grose, H. billbergii (Bur. & K. Schum). S. Grose subsp. billbergii, H. billbergii subsp. ampla (A. H. Gentry) S.

Departamento de Ciências Naturais, Campus Três Lagoas, UFMS, C.P. 210, CEP 79600-000, Três Lagoas, MS, Brazil Correspondence to: José Ragusa-Netto, Departamento de Ciências Naturais, Campus Três Lagoas, UFMS, C.P. 210, CEP 79600-000, Três Lagoas, MS, Brazil, e-mail: [email protected] Received August 4, 2003 – Accepted October 21, 2003 – Distributed May 31, 2005 (With 1 figure) ABSTRACT Neotropical parrots forage for various food items such as seeds, fruit pulp, flowers, young leaves, and even arthropods. While foraging, many species wander over large areas that include both open and closed habitats. In this study, I examined parrot foraging activity during a brief synchronous and massive flowering in August 1998 in a tecoma savanna (dominated by Tabebuia aurea) in the southern Pantanal. Six parrot species, ranging from the small Brotogeris chiriri to the large Amazona aestiva, foraged for T. aurea nectar, but Nandayus nenday was by far the major nectar consumer, and the results of each of their visits, like those of the other species, was damage of a substantial proportion of the existing flower crop. Parrots foraged mostly during the afternoon, when nectar concentration tended to be higher. Nevertheless, compared to bird-pollinated flowers, which produce copious nectar, T. aurea had a smaller mean nectar volume per flower. Hence, presumably the amount of damage wreaked by these parrots resulted from their efforts to obtain part of their daily energy and water requirements.

Califano, E. M. del Castillo, M. A. Quiroga & E. C. Lozano. 2009. Native and exo- tic species of Tabebuia and Handroanthus (Tecomeae, Bignoniaceae) in Argentina. Darwiniana 47(1): 185-220. The most recent studies about the genus Tabebuia and Handroanthus recognize two and six native species in Argentina, and one exotic cultivated species of Handroanthus in urban streets. Nevertheless, the genera are not completely understood, because some taxonomic conflicts are mentioned for the NW of Argentina (NWA). New collections made in Salta and Jujuy, and the revision of an important number of herbarium samples have confirmed a very high variability among the populations of the NWA region, and the subsistence of conflictive situations that prevented the correct identification of the species. Consequently, we considered it was necessary to make the revision of the genus analizing comprehensive material including all the phenological phases, in order to study most characters of every plant organ (young leaves, mature leaves, inflorescences, flowers, fruits and seeds). Our results indicate that the number of native taxa of Handroanthus is seven, including a new variety, and two of Tabebuia. Besides, another cultivated species of Tabebuia was identified, so there are two exotic taxa.

ABSTRACT: The region of Curaçá was one of the first regions of the Brazilian northeast to be ornithologically explored, and is known as the type locality and last stronghold of the Spix’s Macaw (Cyanopsitta spixii), now extinct in the wild. The region of Curaçá has been considered of high conservation importance, particularly for holding some of the last relicts of Caraíba (Tabebuia caraiba) gallery forest in the Caatinga, and for representing the most obvious place to start a reintroduction program for C. spixii. Despite international interest in the plight of the macaw and frequent visits by ornithologists in the last 30 years, no general avian survey has been undertaken in the region.

GAVALI* Gujarat Ecology Society, Synergy House, Subhanpura, Vadodara – 390023, Gujarat, India Abstract Garden biodiversity is an integral part of the urban ecosystem and play an important role in improving green infrastructure and aid in climate change adaptations. Little research is available on the floral diversity of the parks and gardens. The present study is an attempt to document the floral diversity of 77 gardens in Vadodara city and elucidate trends based on the size of the gardens. Study indicated presence of 217 species belonging to 72 families from the gardens of Vadodara city. The floristic data revealed that around 53% of the species represented indigenous species and 47% belonged to exotic species. Paper concluded that diversity is more in the small gardens as compared to large sized garden, where plantation of few species in undertaken. Species suitable to the semi-arid climate with low water requirement dominated the gardens indicative of better management practices and adapt to climate change. Keywords: Garden; Urban ecosystem; Exotic species; Plant Diversity, Gujarat; Introduction Parks and gardens are an important part of urban ecology, and this supports the ecological integrity of cities and protects the health of the urban dwellers.

  • Genetic Variability in Three Amazon Parrot Species
    Genetic variability in three Amazon parrot species Lopes, IF.a, Del Lama, MA.a* and Del Lama, SN.a aDepartamento de Genética e Evolução, Universidade Federal de São Carlos – UFSCar, Rodovia Washington Luiz, Km 235, CEP 13565-905, São Carlos, SP, Brazil *e-mail: [email protected] Received August 16, 2007 – Accepted October 5, 2007 – Distributed December 1, 2007 Abstract Parrots of the genus Amazona are among the most threatened species of the Order Pscittaciformes. This work describes allozyme polymorphisms in three Amazon parrot species - the Blue-fronted Amazon (Amazona aestiva), the Orange- winged Amazon (Amazona amazonica), and the Festive Amazon (Amazona festiva) -, and provides useful data for the evaluation of their genetic variability. We electrophoretically analyzed blood samples from 68 wild-caught individu- als, maintained in captivity in three Brazilian zoos. Eight of the ten studied enzyme loci exhibited polymorphism. Glucosephosphate isomerase (Gpi) proved to be a diagnostic locus for the identification of these Amazon species. The expected average heterozygosity of the Blue-fronted Amazon (0.060) differed significantly from the expected heterozygosities of the Orange-winged Amazon and the Festive Amazon (0.040 and 0.039, respectively). This result was discussed as a consequence of hybridization between two geographic A. aestiva subspecies, and alternatively as a particular trait of this species. Genetic variability of the Blue-fronted Amazon compared to birds in general is not low on a species-wide level, despite the fact that this parrot is one of the most illegally traded species. Allozyme analysis proved to be an useful tool in monitoring the genetic variation within the genus Amazona and can be applied in the management program of other threatened species of this genus.
