  • Two New Taxa of Verticordia (Myrtaceae: Chamelaucieae) from South-Western Australia

Nuytsia 20: 309–318 (2010). Verticordia mitchelliana subsp. implexior A.S.George & M.D.Barrett and Verticordia setacea A.S.George are described and discussed. Verticordia setacea belongs with V. gracilis A.S.George in section Platandra, previously a monotypic section. Introduction The genus Verticordia DC. (Myrtaceae: tribe Chamelaucieae) is a charismatic group of shrubs found mainly in south-western Australia, with several species in adjacent arid regions and three in tropical Australia (George 1991; George & Pieroni 2002). Verticordia is currently defined solely on the possession of divided calyx lobes, but the limits between Verticordia and the related genera Homoranthus A.Cunn. ex Schauer, Chamelaucium Desf. and Darwinia Rudge are difficult to define conclusively, and other characteristics such as anther morphology suggest conflicting relationships (Bentham 1867; Craven & Jones 1991; George 1991). A recent analysis using a single chloroplast gene, with limited sampling of Verticordia taxa (Ma et al. 2002), suggests that Verticordia may be polyphyletic.

  • Variation in Seed Production and Germination in 22 Rare and Threatened Western Australian Verticordia (Myrtaceae)

Considerable inter- and intra-specific variation in both seed production and germinability was demonstrated for the majority of taxa. The seed to flower ratio, or “seed set”, ranged from 0% to 68% with an overall mean of 21% in 82 accessions representing seed from 48 populations of the 22 taxa. Percentage germination ranged from 7% to 100% with an average of 49% for 68 accessions. The precariously low annual reproductive capacity of some of the more restricted and critically endangered taxa threatens their survival and unexpected disturbance events may result in population decline or even localised extinction. Mitigation measures such as the reintroduction of plant material into new sites and the enhancement of existing populations through additional plantings may be warranted for many of Western Australia’s rare and threatened Verticordia. Keywords: Verticordia, seed production, germination Introduction prominently displayed feathery flowers are borne singly but appear as heads or spikes and are generally brightly Verticordia (family Myrtaceae, sub-family coloured, ranging from yellow to red to purple.

  • Chapter 1: General Introduction
    THE CHEMOTAXONOMY, PHYLOGENY AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY OF THE GENUS ERIOCEPHALUS L. (ASTERACEAE) Elizabeth Wanjiku Njenga A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Health Sciences, University of the Witwatersrand, in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree Of Doctor of Philosophy Johannesburg, 2005. i DECLARATION I declare that this thesis is my own work. It is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg. It has not been submitted for any degree or examination at any other university. The abstracts and copies of paper(s) included are part of this work. Signature Date ii DEDICATION To Joy, Shalom and George, my lifetime friends, for their love, courage, strength and prayers that inspired me to face all the challenges… iii ABSTRACT The genus Eriocephalus commonly known as ‘wild rosemary’, ‘Cape snow bush’, or ‘kapokbos’ is a member of the family Asteraceae (tribe Anthemideae). The genus is endemic to southern Africa, with the highest concentration of species in the Western and Northern Cape. The genus comprises 32 species and a total of 42 taxa, which are distributed in South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, and Lesotho. The characters used in species delimitation are purely based on morphological variation in floral and foliar parts and are highly homoplastic due to phenotypic plasticity. In many cases these features are not sufficiently distinctive, as some taxa tend to exhibit dimorphism in some character states such as the presence of opposite and alternate leaves. In some species there is extensive intergrading of the major diagnostic characters leading to uncertainty in species delimitation.

  • The Vase Life of Waxflower (Chamelaucium Desf.) Is Affected by the Weight Ratio of Flowers to Stem
    FOLIA HORTICULTURAE Folia Hort. 28/2 (2016): 201-207 Published by the Polish Society DOI: 10.1515/fhort-2016-0024 for Horticultural Science since 1989 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Open access http://www.foliahort.ogr.ur.krakow.pl The vase life of waxflower Chamelaucium( Desf.) is affected by the weight ratio of flowers to stem Cao D. Dung1*, Kevin Seaton2, Zora Singh3 1 Potato, Vegetable and Flower Research Center Thai phien village, Ward 12, Da Lat, Lam Dong, Vietnam 2 Department of Agriculture and Food Western Australia 3 Baron-Hay Court, South Perth, WA 6151, Australia 3 Department of Environment and Agriculture Curtin University Kent St., Bentley, Perth, WA 6102, Australia ABSTRACT The effect of flower weight on changes in the vase life of flowers and leaves of waxflowers was studied by evaluating the arranged flower weight of cultivars derived from theChamelaucium uncinatum, Chamelaucium megalopetalum and Verticordia species. Competition for water and carbohydrates between flowers and leaves influenced vase life. The removal of flowers had at least four times the effect on leaf vase life as the removal of leaves on flower vase life. Supplying exogenous sucrose to satisfy the demand for carbohydrates negated this effect, indicating that flowers depend on carbohydrates being supplied from leaves to maintain vase life. Cultivars with a greater proportion of flowers (on a weight basis) improved the vase life of flowers at the expense of the leaves. Cultivars with large flowers or many small flowers or a greater weight ratio of flowers to stem appeared to draw more carbohydrates and water from the leaves, giving them a longer vase life and decreasing the vase life of the leaves.

  • Staff Assessment Report APP203667: an Application to Import
    EPA advice for APP203667 Staff Assessment Report APP203667: An application to import and release the moth plant beetle (Freudeita confer cupripennis) as a biological control agent for the weed moth plant (Araujia hortorum). Purpose An application to import and release the moth plant beetle, Freudeita cf. cupripennis, as a biological control agent for the weed moth plant, Araujia hortorum Application number APP203667 Application type Notified, Full Release Applicant Waikato Regional Council Date formally received 17 January 2019 1 EPA advice for APP203667 Executive Summary and Recommendation In January 2019, Waikato Regional Council submitted an application to the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) seeking pre-approval to release the moth plant beetle, Freudeita cf. cupripennis, as a biological control agent (BCA) for the weed moth plant, Araujia hortorum. The application was publicly notified. The EPA received 53 submissions, 23 submissions supported the application, four submissions neither supported nor opposed and 26 submissions opposed the application. The EPA assessed the risks, costs and benefits of the release of F. cf. cupripennis in the context of the environment, market economy, people and communities, public health and on the relationship of Māori and their culture and traditions with their ancestral lands, water, sites, wāhi tapu, valued flora and fauna, and other taonga. The EPA assessed that there are no direct or tangible risks to public health from the release of the moth plant beetle and this was not considered in the assessment. Regarding the environment, we assessed the benefits from the release of the moth plant beetle and found that the BCA is unlikely to reduce the use of chemicals since only a small quantity of herbicide gel is used and that broad spectrum-herbicides would continue to be used to treat other weeds.
