Many different kinds of insects function as pollinators; often these involve very different floral characteristics: Bees, butterflies, etc.: 1) flowers showy, with brightly colored petals 2) flowers usually with some food reward, two common ones are: pollen - protein rich reward nectar - rich in nutrients (e.g., amino acids and sugars) 3) flowers often with strong favorable scent during the day 4) flowers often with ultraviolet markings visible only to the insects (not to humans) Animal Pollination Syndromes Carrion flies (Blowflies): 1) flowers purple or brown or greenish-brown 2) flowers often close to the ground 3) scent strong and foul (like dead animal) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amorphophallus Animal Pollination Syndromes Moths: 1) flowers often white 2) flowers open and scent released in the evening or at night 3) nectar reward 4) flowers often long and tubular to limit access only to long tongued moths http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angraecum_sesquipedale http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angraecum_sesquipedale Animal Pollination Syndromes Birds often pollinate flowers, too: Hummingbirds (found in North and South America only): 1) flowers with long tubular corollas 2) flowers usually red 3) nectar reward in large quantity, rich in sugars (few other nutrients) 4) flowers often dangle away from plant so that bird can reach it while hovering In other parts of the world different birds, including honeycreepers (Hawaii), honeyeaters (Australia) and sunbirds (S. Africa) act as pollinators. Flowers adapted to these birds differ from those adapted for hummingbirds by having a “landing platform” for the birds to perch on, because they cannot hover. The flowers still have long tubular corollas and lots of sugar-rich nectar. Diana Bradshaw Freitas & Sazima 2006 Wind Pollination Syndrome 1) Flowers appear before leaves are out, or flowers extend above the rest of the plant. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2365/2454884258_84354011c0.jpg Wind Pollination Syndrome 2) Often unisexual flowers, separate male and female flowers.

NHESP is responsible for the conservation and protection of hundreds of species that are not hunted, fished, trapped, or commercially harvested in the state. The Program's highest priority is protecting the 176 species of vertebrate and invertebrate animals and 259 species of native plants that are officially listed as Endangered, Threatened or of Special Concern in Massachusetts. Endangered species conservation in Massachusetts depends on you! A major source of funding for the protection of rare and endangered species comes from voluntary donations on state income tax forms.

This complexity is primarily due to high variability of pollutants, contaminants and related parameters. The macrophytes are plausible bio-indicators of the pollution load and level of metals within the aquatic systems than the wastewater or sediment analyses. The potential ability of aquatic macrophytes in natural water bodies receiving municipal sewage from Solapur city was assessed. Data from the studies on macrophytes exposed to a mixed test bath of metals and examined to know their potentialities to accumulate heavy metals for judging their suitability for phytoremediation technology

The national park was F E R N S established in 1968. In 1994, a cooperative agreement with the California Department of Parks and Recreation added Del Norte Coast, Prairie Creek, Athyriaceae – Lady Fern Family and Jedediah Smith Redwoods state parks to form a single administrative Athyrium filix-femina var. cyclosporum • northwestern lady fern unit. Together they comprise about 133,000 acres (540 km2), including 37 miles of coast line. Almost half of the remaining old growth redwood forests Blechnaceae – Deer Fern Family are protected in these four parks.

  • Proceedings of the Workshop on the Creation of Channels and Ponds Within Cattail Marshes on the Bay of Quinte, and a Conceptual Plan
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE WORKSHOP ON THE CREATION OF CHANNELS AND PONDS WITHIN CATTAIL MARSHES ON THE BAY OF QUINTE, AND A CONCEPTUAL PLAN. PREPARED BY ANDY SMITH BAY OF QUINTE REMEDIAL ACTION PLAN JANUARY, 1995 PREFACE On August 17 and 18, 1994 a workshop was held to bring together scientists and members of , , the Bay of Quinte Implementation Advisory Committee (formally the Public Advisory Committee) to discuss enhancing Quinte wetlands by dredging channels and ponds in dense cattail stands. The goals for the workshop were to review the impacts of this technique, discuss its advantages and disadvantages, and design a new channel/pond system. This report is a summary of the workshop and a conceptual plan for a project based on recommendations from the workshop. If implemented this experimental/demonstration project will be studied to determine the effectiveness of creating open water areas within dense cattail stands for providing habitat for variety of species.

Field, Carnegie Institution of Washington, Stanford, CA, and approved October 3, 2008 (received for review July 24, 2008) Chance events such as seed dispersal determine the potential canopy: Hyeronima alchorneoides, Cedrela odorata, and Cordia composition of plant communities, but the eventual assemblage is alliodora; 1 alien palm, Euterpe oleracea, which has a native determined in large part by subsequent interactions among spe- congener; and 1 native, giant perennial herb, Heliconia imbricata cies. Postcolonization sorting also affects the ultimate composition (all species are referred to hereafter by genus). The intent was of communities assembled by people for restoration, horticulture, to encompass some of the variability within the broad category or conservation. Thus, knowledge of the mechanisms controlling of canopy-tree life form while holding the identity of the interspecific interactions in plant communities is important for monocots (palm and herb) constant. Among other differences, explaining patterns observed in nature and predicting success or Hyeronima (like the 2 monocots) is never leafless whereas the failure of utilitarian combinations. Relationships among species, other 2 tree species are deciduous after attaining age 5–7 yr, especially those from studies of biological diversity and ecosystem Cedrela in the dry season and Cordia in the wet season.

  • GENOME EVOLUTION in MONOCOTS a Dissertation
    GENOME EVOLUTION IN MONOCOTS A Dissertation Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School At the University of Missouri In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy By Kate L. Hertweck Dr. J. Chris Pires, Dissertation Advisor JULY 2011 The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the dissertation entitled GENOME EVOLUTION IN MONOCOTS Presented by Kate L. Hertweck A candidate for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy And hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. Dr. J. Chris Pires Dr. Lori Eggert Dr. Candace Galen Dr. Rose‐Marie Muzika ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am indebted to many people for their assistance during the course of my graduate education. I would not have derived such a keen understanding of the learning process without the tutelage of Dr. Sandi Abell. Members of the Pires lab provided prolific support in improving lab techniques, computational analysis, greenhouse maintenance, and writing support. Team Monocot, including Dr. Mike Kinney, Dr. Roxi Steele, and Erica Wheeler were particularly helpful, but other lab members working on Brassicaceae (Dr. Zhiyong Xiong, Dr. Maqsood Rehman, Pat Edger, Tatiana Arias, Dustin Mayfield) all provided vital support as well. I am also grateful for the support of a high school student, Cady Anderson, and an undergraduate, Tori Docktor, for their assistance in laboratory procedures. Many people, scientist and otherwise, helped with field collections: Dr. Travis Columbus, Hester Bell, Doug and Judy McGoon, Julie Ketner, Katy Klymus, and William Alexander. Many thanks to Barb Sonderman for taking care of my greenhouse collection of many odd plants brought back from the field.
