    Carmona retusa Carmona Boraginaceae Forest Starr, Kim Starr, and Lloyd Loope United States Geological Survey--Biological Resources Division Haleakala Field Station, Maui, Hawai'i January, 2003 OVERVIEW Carmona retusa is a popular ornamental plant cultivated in Hawai'i as a hedge or specimen plant. On Maui, C. retusa is observed in residential plantings, mostly in low elevation neighborhoods, such as Kahului, Wailuku, Lahaina, Paia, Haiku, and Kihei. Seedlings and naturalized plants are also commonly observed in landscaping areas and wild semi-wild areas nearby plantings. In one area in Waiehu, C. retusa forms a dense shrubby understory in a kiawe (Prosopis pallida) forest. This plant is fairly widespread on Maui and is probably beyond the eradication stage. Future efforts should be aimed at monitoring, preventing infestations in natural areas, and educating the public about harmful plants that spread beyond the confines of the garden. TAXONOMY Family: Boraginaceae (Heliotrope family) (Lorence et al. 1995, Wagner et al. 1999). Latin name: Carmona retusa (Vahl) Masamune (Lorence et al. 1995, Wagner et al. 1999). Synonyms: C. microphylla (Lam.) Don; Ehretia microphylla Lam.; Ehretia buxifolia Roxb.; Cordia retusa Vahl (Lorence et al. 1995; Bailey and Bailey 1976; GRIN 2001). Common names: Carmona, Philippine tea (Bailey and Bailey 1976), Fukien tea (Caine and Zane 2001). Taxonomic notes: The genus Carmona, also commonly known as Ehretia, is comprised of about 50 species of evergreen or deciduous shrubs and trees of tropical and subtropical regions of both the New and Old World (Bailey and Bailey 1976). Related species in Hawai'i: Neal (1965) lists Ehretia acuminata R.

  • Rosary Pea Abrus Precatorius (L.) Fabaceae
    InvasiveInvasive SpeciesSpecies ManagementManagement PlansPlans forfor FloridaFlorida Rosary Pea Abrus precatorius (L.) Fabaceae INTRODUCTION Rosary pea has been widely used in Florida as an ornamental plant for many years. The native range of rosary pea is India and parts of Asia, where this plant is used for various purposes. The roots of this plant are used to induce abortion and relieve abdominal discomfort. The seeds of this plant are so uniform in size and weight that they are used as standards in weight measurement. The seeds can also be used to make jewelry. Interestingly, one of the most deadly plant toxins, abrin, is produced by rosary pea (Abrus precatorius). Studies have shown that as little as 0.00015% of toxin per body weight will cause fatality in humans (a single seed). Interestingly, birds appear to be unaffected by the deadly toxin as they have been shown to readily disperse rosary pea seed. DESCRIPTION Rosary pea is a small, high climbing vine with alternately compound leaves, 2-5 inches long, with 5 to 15 pairs of oblong leaflets. A key characteristic in identifying rosary pea is the lack of a terminal leaflet on the compound leaves. The flowers are small, pale, and violet to pink, clustered in leaf axils. The fruit is characteristic of a legume. The pod is oblong, flat and truncate shaped, roughly 1½ - 2 inches long. This seedpod curls back when it opens, revealing the seeds. The seeds are small, brilliant red with a black spot. These characteristics give the plant another common name of crab’s eyes. IMPACTS Rosary pea is found throughout central and southern Florida, including Marion, Lake, Palm Beach, and Manatee counties.

    Paragraph Reference Number CONSERVATION, AQUIFER RECHARGE AND DRAINAGE ELEMENT INTRODUCTION 1. The environmental sensitivity of Miami-Dade County is underscored by the fact that the urban developed area of the County portion lies between two national parks, Everglades and Biscayne National Parks, and the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary. The close relationship of tourism to the preservation of Miami-Dade County's unique native plants, fish, wildlife, beaches and near shore water quality is closely related to the continued success of the County’s tourism industry. and as such preservation So, natural resource preservation in Miami-Dade County has been recognized as an economic as well as environmental issue. The close proximity of an expanding urbanized area to national and State resource-based parks, and over 6,000 acres of natural areas within County parks, presents a unique challenge to Miami-Dade County to provide sound management. In addition, many experts suggest that South Florida will be significantly affected by rising sea levels, intensifying droughts, floods, and hurricanes as a result of climate change. As a partner in the four county Southeast Florida Regional Climate Change Compact, Miami-Dade has committed to study the potential negative impacts to the County given climate change projections, and is working to analyze strategies to adapt to these impacts and protect the built environment and natural resources. 2. The County has addressed this is also working to address these challenges by in several ways including working closely with other public and private sector agencies and groups to obtain a goal of sustainability. The close relationship of tourism to the preservation of Miami-Dade County's unique native plants and wildlife has been recognized as an economic as well as environmental issue.

  • Molecular Evolutionary Analysis of Plastid Genomes in Nonphotosynthetic Angiosperms and Cancer Cell Lines
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School Department or Biology MOLECULAR EVOLUTIONARY ANALYSIS OF PLASTID GENOMES IN NONPHOTOSYNTHETIC ANGIOSPERMS AND CANCER CELL LINES A Dissertation in Biology by Yan Zhang 2012 Yan Zhang Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Dec 2012 The Dissertation of Yan Zhang was reviewed and approved* by the following: Schaeffer, Stephen W. Professor of Biology Chair of Committee Ma, Hong Professor of Biology Altman, Naomi Professor of Statistics dePamphilis, Claude W Professor of Biology Dissertation Adviser Douglas Cavener Professor of Biology Head of Department of Biology *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT This thesis explores the application of evolutionary theory and methods in understanding the plastid genome of nonphotosynthetic parasitic plants and role of mutations in tumor proliferations. We explore plastid genome evolution in parasitic angiosperms lineages that have given up the primary function of plastid genome – photosynthesis. Genome structure, gene contents, and evolutionary dynamics were analyzed and compared in both independent and related parasitic plant lineages. Our studies revealed striking similarities in changes of gene content and evolutionary dynamics with the loss of photosynthetic ability in independent nonphotosynthetic plant lineages. Evolutionary analysis suggests accelerated evolution in the plastid genome of the nonphotosynthetic plants. This thesis also explores the application of phylogenetic and evolutionary analysis in cancer biology. Although cancer has often been likened to Darwinian process, very little application of molecular evolutionary analysis has been seen in cancer biology research. In our study, phylogenetic approaches were used to explore the relationship of several hundred established cancer cell lines based on multiple sequence alignments constructed with variant codons and residues across 494 and 523 genes.
