Nitrogen Containing Volatile Organic Compounds
DIPLOMARBEIT Titel der Diplomarbeit Nitrogen containing Volatile Organic Compounds Verfasserin Olena Bigler angestrebter akademischer Grad Magistra der Pharmazie (Mag.pharm.) Wien, 2012 Studienkennzahl lt. Studienblatt: A 996 Studienrichtung lt. Studienblatt: Pharmazie Betreuer: Univ. Prof. Mag. Dr. Gerhard Buchbauer Danksagung Vor allem lieben herzlichen Dank an meinen gütigen, optimistischen, nicht-aus-der-Ruhe-zu-bringenden Betreuer Herrn Univ. Prof. Mag. Dr. Gerhard Buchbauer ohne dessen freundlichen, fundierten Hinweisen und Ratschlägen diese Arbeit wohl niemals in der vorliegenden Form zustande gekommen wäre. Nochmals Danke, Danke, Danke. Weiteres danke ich meinen Eltern, die sich alles vom Munde abgespart haben, um mir dieses Studium der Pharmazie erst zu ermöglichen, und deren unerschütterlicher Glaube an die Fähigkeiten ihrer Tochter, mich auch dann weitermachen ließ, wenn ich mal alles hinschmeissen wollte. Auch meiner Schwester Ira gebührt Dank, auch sie war mir immer eine Stütze und Hilfe, und immer war sie da, für einen guten Rat und ein offenes Ohr. Dank auch an meinen Sohn Igor, der mit viel Verständnis akzeptierte, dass in dieser Zeit meine Prioritäten an meiner Diplomarbeit waren, und mein Zeitbudget auch für ihn eingeschränkt war. Schliesslich last, but not least - Dank auch an meinen Mann Joseph, der mich auch dann ertragen hat, wenn ich eigentlich unerträglich war. 2 Abstract This review presents a general analysis of the scienthr information about nitrogen containing volatile organic compounds (N-VOC’s) in plants. -

Stephen A. Smith WGDs have been associated with advantages such as superior colonization, various adapta- Tel: +1 734 615 5510 tions, and increased effective population size. However, the lack of a comprehensive mapping Email: [email protected] of WGDs within a major plant clade has led to uncertainty regarding the potential association Received: 30 May 2017 of WGDs and higher diversification rates. Accepted: 28 July 2017 Using seven chloroplast and nuclear ribosomal genes, we constructed a phylogeny of 5036 species of Caryophyllales, representing nearly half of the extant species. We phylogenetically New Phytologist (2017) mapped putative WGDs as identified from analyses on transcriptomic and genomic data and doi: 10.1111/nph.14772 analyzed these in conjunction with shifts in climatic occupancy and lineage diversification rate. Thirteen putative WGDs and 27 diversification shifts could be mapped onto the phylogeny. Key words: Caryophyllales, climatic occupancy, diversification rates, duplications, Of these, four WGDs were concurrent with diversification shifts, with other diversification phylogenomics. -

Applicant: Rothamsted Research, West Common, Harpenden Hertfordshire, AL5 2JQ UK 2. The title of the project. Study of aphid, predator and parasitoid behaviour in wheat producing aphid alarm pheromone PART II Information relating to the parental or recipient plant 3. The full name of the plant - (a) family name, Poaceae (b) genus, Triticum (c) species, aestivum (d) subspecies, N/A (e) cultivar/breeding line, Cadenza (f) common name. Common wheat/ bread wheat 4. Information concerning - (a) the reproduction of the plant: (i) the mode or modes of reproduction, (ii) any specific factors affecting reproduction, (iii) generation time; and (b) the sexual compatibility of the plant with other cultivated or wild plant species, including the distribution in Europe of the compatible species. ai) Reproduction is sexual leading to formation of seeds. Wheat is approximately 99% autogamous under natural field conditions; with self-fertilization normally occurring before flowers open. Wheat pollen grains are relatively heavy and any that are released from the flower remain viable for between a few minutes and a few hours. Warm, dry, windy conditions may increase cross- pollination rates on a variety to variety basis (see also 6 below). -

Wildflower Hot Spots of the Eastern Sierra Welcome to the Eastern Sierra…
Wildflower Hot Spots of the Eastern Sierra Welcome to the Eastern Sierra… THE EASTERN SIERRA truly is a land of superlatives: Elevations you will visit using this guide range from the oldest living trees on the planet (bristlecone pines); 3,300 feet (1,005 meters) at Fossil Falls to 10,200 feet the highest peak in the contiguous United States (Mt. (3,100 meters) at the Mosquito Flat trailhead in Rock Whitney); the youngest mountain range in North Creek. Many of the peaks around you soar to more than America (Mono Craters); one of the oldest lakes in 13,000 feet, and a side trip into Death Valley will plunge North America (Mono Lake). All of these and more are you down to below sea level at Badwater. within an easy day’s drive of each other. The spectacular landscapes of this area draw a worldwide audience, and with good reason. The elevation range combined with the diverse geologic environment results in a wide variety of vegetation communities. Three major biotic provinces—the Mojave Geology field classes often visit the area for the Desert, Great Basin, and Sierra Nevada—all converge in relatively easy access to a wide variety of geologic this area. Dozens of plant communities and thousands formations and rock types. Volcanic craters, basalt flows, of plant species occur here, many of them unique to layers of ash and pumice, carbonate formations, and the Eastern Sierra. This guide is an introduction to the granite peaks, walls, and spires all can be seen here. botanical gems to be encountered here. -
