Invasive Plants: Ecological Effects, Status, Management Challenges in Tanzania and the Way Forward

Ngondya*, Anna C. Treydte, Patrick A. Ndakidemi, Linus K. Munishi 1Department of Sustainable Agriculture, Biodiversity and Ecosystem Management, School of Life Sciences and Bio-Engineering. The Nelson Mandela African Institution of Science and Technology, Arusha, Tanzania Article published on March 31, 2017 Key words: Competition, Allelopathy, Weeds, IPM, Mowing Abstract Over decades invasive plants have been exerting negative pressure on native vascular plant’s and hence devastating the stability and productivity of the receiving ecosystem. These effects are usually irreversible if appropriate strategies cannot be taken immediately after invasion, resulting in high cost of managing them both in rangelands and farmlands. With time, these non-edible plant species will result in a decreased grazing or browsing area and can lead to local extinction of native plants and animals due to decreased food availability. Management of invasive weeds has been challenging over years as a result of increasingly failure of chemical control as a method due to evolution of resistant weeds, higher cost of using chemical herbicide and their effects on the environment. While traditional methods such as timely uprooting and cutting presents an alternative for sustainable invasive weeds management they have been associated with promotion of germination of undesired weeds due to soil disturbance. The fact that chemical and traditional methods for invasive weed management are increasing failing nature based invasive plants management approaches such as competitive facilitation of the native plants and the use of other plant species with allelopathic effects can be an alternative management approach. -
Chromosome Numbers in Compositae, XII: Heliantheae
SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO BOTANY 0 NCTMBER 52 Chromosome Numbers in Compositae, XII: Heliantheae Harold Robinson, A. Michael Powell, Robert M. King, andJames F. Weedin SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION PRESS City of Washington 1981 ABSTRACT Robinson, Harold, A. Michael Powell, Robert M. King, and James F. Weedin. Chromosome Numbers in Compositae, XII: Heliantheae. Smithsonian Contri- butions to Botany, number 52, 28 pages, 3 tables, 1981.-Chromosome reports are provided for 145 populations, including first reports for 33 species and three genera, Garcilassa, Riencourtia, and Helianthopsis. Chromosome numbers are arranged according to Robinson’s recently broadened concept of the Heliantheae, with citations for 212 of the ca. 265 genera and 32 of the 35 subtribes. Diverse elements, including the Ambrosieae, typical Heliantheae, most Helenieae, the Tegeteae, and genera such as Arnica from the Senecioneae, are seen to share a specialized cytological history involving polyploid ancestry. The authors disagree with one another regarding the point at which such polyploidy occurred and on whether subtribes lacking higher numbers, such as the Galinsoginae, share the polyploid ancestry. Numerous examples of aneuploid decrease, secondary polyploidy, and some secondary aneuploid decreases are cited. The Marshalliinae are considered remote from other subtribes and close to the Inuleae. Evidence from related tribes favors an ultimate base of X = 10 for the Heliantheae and at least the subfamily As teroideae.

The purpose of a 5-year review is to evaluate whether or not the species’ status has changed since it was listed (or since the most recent 5-year review). Based on the 5-year review, we recommend whether the species should be removed from the list of endangered and threatened species, be changed in status from endangered to threatened, or be changed in status from threatened to endangered. Our original listing as endangered or threatened is based on the species’ status considering the five threat factors described in section 4(a)(1) of the Act. -

San Martín 4453, 1417, Buenos Aires, Argentina; e-mail: [email protected] (corresponding author), [email protected] 2 Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas (CONICET) Abstract Tagetes pauciloba, a species previously included in the synonymy of T. filifolia, is reinstated as a distinct species, and T. mendocina is placed in the synonymy of T. pauciloba. An epitype of T. pauciloba is designated. A revised morphological description of T. pauciloba is presented, including the presence of gemmiferous roots noted for the first time in Argentinian species of Tagetes. Distribution of T. pauciloba and T. filifolia in Argentina is mapped. A key to distinguish T. pauciloba from its Argentinian congeners with perennial habit is provided. Keywords: Asteraceae; Tageteae; Tagetes; Taxonomy Introduction Tagetes Linnaeus (1753: 887) is an American genus with a continuous distribution from southwestern United States to central Chile and northern Patagonia in Argentina (Neher 1966, Gutiérrez & Stampacchio 2015, Schiavinato et al. 2017). According to Soule (1996), its greatest species richness was recorded in Mexico; however, there is another diversity center in Argentina, were 12 species occur (Gutiérrez & Stampacchio 2015, Schiavinato et al. 2017). Tagetes filifolia Lagasca (1816: 28) was originally described as an annual herb from Mexico. -

Here the antibacterial activity of spent substrate of Pleurotus ostreatus combined with medicinal plants was evaluated. We designed six mixtures (barley straw, barley straw/Chenopodium ambrosioides L., barley straw/Mentha piperita L., barley straw/Rosmarinus officinalis L., barley straw/Litsea glaucescens Kunth and barley straw/Tagetes lucid Cav) to be used as a substrate of cultivation of mushroom. -
