ABSTRACT [The taxonomy of the old genus Acacia Mill., based on cluster analysis of wood characters]. Cluster analysis performed with wood characters of 25 species of the old genus Acacia (Fabaceae: Mimosoideae) allows the separation of the same in the current genera Acacia Mill., Senegalia Raf. and Vachellia Wight & Arn., in accordance with the segregation approved by the International Botanical Congress in 2005. Key words: Acacia Mill., Senegalia Raf., Vachellia Wight & Arn., wood anatomy, wood taxonomy.

    Proceedings of the International Academy of Ecology and Environmental Sciences, 2017, 7(2): 30-46 Article A contemporary assessment of tree species in Sathyamangalam Tiger Reserve, Southern India M. Sathya, S. Jayakumar Environmental Informatics and Spatial Modeling Lab, Department of Ecology and Environmental Sciences, School of Life Sciences, Pondicherry University, Puducherry 605014, India E-mail: [email protected] Received 28 December 2016; Accepted 5 February 2017; Published online 1 June 2017 Abstract Tree species inventory was carried out in five forest types of Sathyamangalam Tiger Reserve (STR). The forest type was divided into homogenous vegetation strata (HVS) based on the altitude, temperature, precipitation and forest types. A total of 8 ha area was sampled using 0.1 ha (20m 50m) plot and all tree species ≥ 1cm girth at breast height (gbh) within the plot were enumerated. In all, 4614 individuals were recorded that belonged to 122 species representing 90 genera and 39 families. Fabaceae, Euphorbiaceae, Rubiaceae, and Combretaceae were the species-rich families. The mean stand density of STR was 577 ha-1, but it varied from 180 ha-1 to 779 ha-1. Similarly, the mean basal area of the STR was 14.51 m2ha-1 which ranged between 8.41 m2 ha-1 and 26.96 m2 ha-1. The stem count was low at the lowest girth class (1-10 cm gbh) and high at 20-30 cm gbh in all the forest types. Anogeissus latifolia was the dominant species in the semi- evergreen and deciduous forest types while Chloroxylon swietenia was dominant in the thorn forest.

  • A Review of Pharmacological Activities of Acacia Nilotica (Linn) Willd W.S.R to Osteoporosis Kamini Kaushal 1 Abstract
    Review Article A Review of Pharmacological Activities of Acacia nilotica (Linn) willd W.S.R to Osteoporosis Kamini Kaushal 1 Abstract Medicinal plants have been utilized for the treatment of diseases since creation of earth or before it; in traditional medicine, they still play an important role as effective and have natural origin. Acacia nilotica commonly known as babul belongs to the family Fabaceae and is widely distributed all over India, SriLanka, and Sudan; Egypt is the native country of this plant. Useful parts such as root, bark, leaves, flower, gum, pods, etc., are used in medicines. Different parts of the plant like leaves and fruit contain tannin; flower contains stearic acid, kaempferol-3-glucoside, isoquercetin, leucocyanidin; pod contains tannin, polyphenolic compounds, gum Contains arabic acid combined with calcium, magnesium and potassium. In traditional medicine, it is used for bleeding diseases, prolapsed, leucorrhoea, antihypertensive, antispasmodic, antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant activity, etc. The present review is an attempt to explore and comprehensively highlight use for osteoporosis, phytochemical properties and pharmacological uses of A. nilotica reported till date. Keywords: Acacia arabica; Acacia nilotica , Pharmacological study, Tannin, Arabic acid, Uses Introduction More than 30% healthcare industry from all over the world relies on medicinal plants. In India, traditional system of medicine such as Ayurveda since ancient times is root of medicine. About 750 species are being utilized in Ayurveda system of medicine and in modern medicine around 30 species only.1 Medicinal plants are playing continuously essential part of Indian system of medicine. Acacia genus belongs to shrubs and trees, subfamily Mimosoideae, 2,3 of the family Fabaceae (Leguminosae).4,5 The species name is nilotica/arebica/scorpioides.

The objectives of this study paper were (1) evaluate the growth, biomass and survival of different woody plant species established through direct seeding in a semi-arid degraded land; (2) identify woody plant species that could be further used for restoration of degraded lands. To achieve the objectives eight woody plant species seeds were gathered, their seeds were sown in a degraded land, in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) (n=4). Data on germination, growth and survival of the different woody plants were collected at regular intervals during an eleven-month period. At the end of the study period, the remaining woody plants' dry biomasses were assessed. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used for the data analysis and mean separation was performed using Fisher’s least significant difference (LSD) test (p=0.05). The result revealed significant differences on the mean heights, root length, root collar diameters, root to shoot ratio, dry root biomasses and dry shoot biomasses of the different species (p < 0.05).

  • Checklist of the Vascular Alien Flora of Catalonia (Northeastern Iberian Peninsula, Spain) Pere Aymerich1 & Llorenç Sáez2,3
    BOTANICAL CHECKLISTS Mediterranean Botany ISSNe 2603-9109 https://dx.doi.org/10.5209/mbot.63608 Checklist of the vascular alien flora of Catalonia (northeastern Iberian Peninsula, Spain) Pere Aymerich1 & Llorenç Sáez2,3 Received: 7 March 2019 / Accepted: 28 June 2019 / Published online: 7 November 2019 Abstract. This is an inventory of the vascular alien flora of Catalonia (northeastern Iberian Peninsula, Spain) updated to 2018, representing 1068 alien taxa in total. 554 (52.0%) out of them are casual and 514 (48.0%) are established. 87 taxa (8.1% of the total number and 16.8 % of those established) show an invasive behaviour. The geographic zone with more alien plants is the most anthropogenic maritime area. However, the differences among regions decrease when the degree of naturalization of taxa increases and the number of invaders is very similar in all sectors. Only 26.2% of the taxa are more or less abundant, while the rest are rare or they have vanished. The alien flora is represented by 115 families, 87 out of them include naturalised species. The most diverse genera are Opuntia (20 taxa), Amaranthus (18 taxa) and Solanum (15 taxa). Most of the alien plants have been introduced since the beginning of the twentieth century (70.7%), with a strong increase since 1970 (50.3% of the total number). Almost two thirds of alien taxa have their origin in Euro-Mediterranean area and America, while 24.6% come from other geographical areas. The taxa originated in cultivation represent 9.5%, whereas spontaneous hybrids only 1.2%. From the temporal point of view, the rate of Euro-Mediterranean taxa shows a progressive reduction parallel to an increase of those of other origins, which have reached 73.2% of introductions during the last 50 years.
