(Strawberry tree) belongs to Ericaceae family, is an evergreen shrub or tree, mostly known around Mediterranean region in natural habitat, has valuable medicinal and aromatic properties. The plant is mainly used for its edible fruits. In addition, A. unedo have increasing importance in afforestration programmes, beekeeping facilities, ornamental purposes and elucidating plant physiology. Therefore, the species is seemingly a promising fruit plant. Orchards are very limited but increasing demand to the plant will result in initiations of establishment new fruit orchards with superior genotypes viz. tolerant to the abiotic stress, resistant to pests and diseases, rich contents in terms of valuable compounds, convenience to postharvest operations, being visually preferable and suitable to target climate. Plant breeding is an important component to overcome elimination of unwanted features and to reach admirable characters. The main steps in breeding are effective selection, succesfully adaptation and inheritance via transferring the features to subsequent generations.

  • Patterns in Ericaceae: New Phylogenetic Analyses
    BS 55 479 Origins and biogeographic patterns in Ericaceae: New insights from recent phylogenetic analyses Kathleen A. Kron and James L. Luteyn Kron, KA. & Luteyn, J.L. 2005. Origins and biogeographic patterns in Ericaceae: New insights from recent phylogenetic analyses. Biol. Skr. 55: 479-500. ISSN 0366-3612. ISBN 87-7304-304-4. Ericaceae are a diverse group of woody plants that span the temperate and tropical regions of the world. Previous workers have suggested that Ericaceae originated in Gondwana, but recent phy­ logenetic studies do not support this idea. The theory of a Gondwanan origin for the group was based on the concentration of species richness in the Andes, southern Africa, and the southwest Pacific islands (most of which are thought to be of Gondwanan origin). The Andean diversity is comprised primarily of Vaccinieae with more than 800 species occurring in northern South America, Central America, and the Antilles. In the Cape Region of South Africa the genus Erica is highly diverse with over 600 species currently recognized. In the southwest Pacific islands, Vac­ cinieae and Rhodoreae are very diverse with over 290 species of Rhododendron (sect. Vireya) and approximately 500 species of Vaccinieae (I)imorphanthera, Paphia, Vaccinium). Recent phyloge­ netic studies have also shown that the Styphelioideae (formerly Epacridaceae) are included within Ericaceae, thus adding a fourth extremely diverse group (approximately 520 species) in areas considered Gondwanan in origin. Phylogenetic studies of the family on a global scale, how­ ever, have indicated that these highly diverse “Gondwanan” groups are actually derived from within Ericaceae. Both Fitch parsimony character optimization (using MacClade 4.0) and disper- sal-vicariance analysis (DIVA) indicate that Ericaceae is Laurasian in origin.

Their isolation has given rise to many endemic species and subspecies, of which the great views of Tenerife Blue Chaffinch in perfect light were a highlight for many. We marvelled over the flora, so different to that of mainland Europe, and enjoyed the various species of lizards, plus the butterflies and other invertebrates we encountered. The day on La Gomera was a delight, not least for the numbers of Cory’s Shearwaters, whales and dolphins, plus the White-faced Storm Petrels we encountered. Lovely weather with plenty of sunshine, comfortable accommodation, good food and great company all made for an excellent week. Day 1 Saturday 23rd February Fly to Tenerife South – La Chafiras – Road to Vilaflor Fifteen tour group members met with Andrew and Jessica at Gatwick’s North Terminal for the 6.50am Easyjet flight to Tenerife South Airport.

  • Arbutus Canariensis Veill
    Arbutus canariensis Veill. in Duhamel (madroño) Por Francisco González Artiles Árbol endémico de Canarias, encontrándose ausente de Lanzarote y Fuerteventura. Se trata de una especie del monteverde seco, que requiere de humedad ambiental pero también de la influencia directa del sol. Resulta más abundante en Tenerife y El Hierro, menos frecuente en La Palma y La Gomera, y en Gran Canaria sólo está presente, de modo natural, en contadas localidades de la isla. Se trata de un árbol de porte variable, en función de las condiciones ambientales, pudiendo alcanzar hasta 18 metros, pero encontrándose normalmente entre los 4 y los 7 metros de altura. Como elemento destacado se encuentra su corteza, de tacto liso y color rojizo- anaranjado, que se desprende en placas muy delgadas. Las ramas jóvenes son de color verde y presenta un follaje compuesto por hojas largas (hasta 15 cm), lanceoladas y con el borde aserrado. Presenta flores hermafroditas, de color rosáceo y que forman racimos colgantes. El fruto es una baya de color anaranjado, con aspecto de una pequeña mandarina que cuenta con una pulpa interior de sabor dulce donde se localizan una gran cantidad de semillas diminutas. Al tratarse de un árbol endémico de fruto comestible, comparte con el mocán el haber sido utilizado como alimento por las primeras poblaciones humanas del archipiélago, así como la dispersión de sus semillas por las aves. En los trabajos de restauración ecológica, su condición heliófila hace que tengan un buen comportamiento, tanto en supervivencia como en crecimiento. Y su dispersión y expansión posterior se ve favorecida por las aves.

  • Erdbeerbäume Jennifer Markwirth & Hilke Steinecke
    Erdbeerbäume Jennifer Markwirth & Hilke Steinecke Abstract Te spherical, red-orange-coloured fruits of the strawberry trees (Arbutus) are reminiscent of strawberries, but are neither taste wise nor anatomically or systematically related with them. In the new and the old world there are a total of 11 Arbutus species, most of which occur in the Mediterranean region and Mexico. Tese are evergreen shrubs and trees with mostly conspicuous red bark that dissolves like scales from the trunk. Te Palmengarten cultivates quite large plants of the american strawberry tree (Arbutus menziesii) and the western strawberry tree (Arbutus unedo). Zusammenfassung Die kugeligen, rot-orange gefärbten Früchte der Erdbeerbäume (Arbutus) erinnern auf den ersten Blick an Erdbeeren, haben aber weder geschmacklich noch anatomisch oder systematisch etwas mit diesen gemein. In der Neuen sowie der Alten Welt gibt es ins- gesamt 11 Arbutus-Arten, die vor allem im Mittelmeerraum und Mexiko vorkommen. Es handelt sich um immergrüne Sträucher und Bäume mit meist aufällig roter Rinde, die sich schuppenartig vom Stamm löst.

(2002a) has been presented. For this palynological investigation, 275 taxa of 270 species representing 57 genera and 6 subfamilies were studied with light (LM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and 31 species with transmission electron microscopy (TEM).
