Sustainable Landscape Practices Garden Virginia Tech Hampton Roads Agricultural Research & Extension Center 1444 Diamond Springs Rd., Virginia Beach, VA Sustainable landscaping can also be called low maintenance, green, environmentally friendly, or conservation landscaping. Sustainable Concepts • biological diversity – using many different plants promotes beneficial insects, provides food & habitat for animals, & reduces pest impact • resource conservation – using existing topography, water, plants, & views in the design reduces costs & disturbance to the environment • long term planning – planning for mature plant sizes & the long-term look & use of the landscape reduces costs & minimizes plant crowding & maintenance • low impact / input – disturbing the site as little as possible & using healthy, well- adapted plants reduce maintenance & pesticide & fertilizer use • water conservation – grouping plants with similar water needs, using rain sensors, rain chains, rain barrels, & rain gardens/swales to collect runoff, help to conserve valuable water resources Sustainable Practices Used in this Landscape • Rain chains • Long term planning • Rain sensors • Correct planting • Rain barrel • Minimal site disturbance • Landscaped swales • Grasscycling • Permeable paving • Recycled products • Ground covers • Resource conservation • Mulches • Promote beneficial insects • Compost • Low input lawn • Canopy layering • Reduced fertilizers • Passive solar • Zero pesticides heating/cooling • Solar lights • Plant diversity • Soil testing • Plant selection • Fertilizer placement • Drip irrigation • Storm drain protection • Watering bags • Minimal deadheading • Healthy soil Products Used in this Landscape Mulches Cedar Mulch Clam/Oyster Shells Cypress Mulch Lava Rock Pinebark Nuggets Pinestraw Red-colored Mulch Rosetta Chip Gravel Rubber Mulch

    Appendix Color Plates of Solanales Species

    Appendix Color Plates of Solanales Species The first half of the color plates (Plates 1–8) shows a selection of phytochemically prominent solanaceous species, the second half (Plates 9–16) a selection of convol- vulaceous counterparts. The scientific name of the species in bold (for authorities see text and tables) may be followed (in brackets) by a frequently used though invalid synonym and/or a common name if existent. The next information refers to the habitus, origin/natural distribution, and – if applicable – cultivation. If more than one photograph is shown for a certain species there will be explanations for each of them. Finally, section numbers of the phytochemical Chapters 3–8 are given, where the respective species are discussed. The individually combined occurrence of sec- ondary metabolites from different structural classes characterizes every species. However, it has to be remembered that a small number of citations does not neces- sarily indicate a poorer secondary metabolism in a respective species compared with others; this may just be due to less studies being carried out.

LAWSON, MARY N. DAVIS, CAROLYN BRAZELL – Biology Department WILLIAM N. SETZER – Mentor – Chemistry Department Overview Antibiotic and antifungal resistance is a growing concern. Novel anti-tumor compounds are continuously sought after. If a novel phytochemical can be discovered with high specificity for certain types of cancer cells, then this could be an invaluable aid to oncological medicine. Plant-based drugs (phyto-pharmaceuticals) have always made up a considerable portion of our known medicines. The search for these plant medicines often begins with anthropological/ ethnobotanical research, as was the case here.

Received: September 16, 2019; Published: September 30, 2019 Abstract Begomoviruses (family Geminiviridae, genus Begomovirus) that infect sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas) are known as sweepovi- ruses and are a major constraint to sweetpotato production. To date, the known distribution of sweepoviruses in Africa has been limited to Kenya, Uganda, South Africa, Sudan and Tanzania. Weeds can act as sources or reservoirs for important crop pathogens, but their role in crop plant diseases in Africa has not been well documented. Begomoviruses infect a wide range of dicotyledonous plants, including cultivated crops and weeds. Sweetpotato plants and weeds from Burkina Faso exhibiting severe leaf curling, suggesting the presence of begomoviruses, were tested and characterized using rolling circle amplification followed by cloning and sequencing.

    Nested Whole-Genome Duplications Coincide with Diversification And

    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-17605-7 OPEN Nested whole-genome duplications coincide with diversification and high morphological disparity in Brassicaceae Nora Walden 1,7, Dmitry A.

Koch 1 1234567890():,; Angiosperms have become the dominant terrestrial plant group by diversifying for ~145 million years into a broad range of environments. During the course of evolution, numerous morphological innovations arose, often preceded by whole genome duplications (WGD). The mustard family (Brassicaceae), a successful angiosperm clade with ~4000 species, has been diversifying into many evolutionary lineages for more than 30 million years. Here we develop a species inventory, analyze morphological variation, and present a maternal, plastome-based genus-level phylogeny. We show that increased morphological disparity, despite an apparent absence of clade-specific morphological innovations, is found in tribes with WGDs or diversification rate shifts. Both are important processes in Brassicaceae, resulting in an overall high net diversification rate. Character states show frequent and independent gain and loss, and form varying combinations. Therefore, Brassicaceae pave the way to concepts of phy- logenetic genome-wide association studies to analyze the evolution of morphological form and function. 1 Centre for Organismal Studies, University of Heidelberg, Im Neuenheimer Feld 345, 69120 Heidelberg, Germany. 2 GYDLE, 1135 Grande Allée Ouest, Québec, QC G1S 1E7, Canada. 3 Department of Botany, Faculty of Science, Charles University, Benátská 2, 128 01, Prague, Czech Republic.
