Name: ___________________________________ Due: Wednesday, July 11th BROMELIACEAE (Bromeliad family) • 51 genera; 1520 species • Herbs, often epiphytic • Hairs as water-absorbing peltate scales, or occasionally stellate • Leaves alternate, often forming water ‘tanks’ at leaf base, simple, entire to sharply serrate, with parallel venation, water storage tissue, sheathing leaf bases; stipules absent • Flowers bisexual, actinomorphic; sepals 3, free or connate; petals 3, free or connate, often with paired appendages at base; stamens 6; filaments free or connate, sometimes epipetalous; carpels 3, connate; ovary superior to inferior, with axile placentation; stigmas 3, usually spirally twisted; ovules numerous • Fruit a capsule or berry; seeds often winged or with tuft of hair • Examples: Ananas comosus (pineapple), Guzmania, Tillandsia (spanish moss), Vriesia Greenhouse If you have time there’s lots of cool orchids in Room 2, but if you’re here only for the Bromeliads head down to Room 5. Room 5 As you walk in the wall on the right holds many epiphytic bromeliads, mostly Tillandsia (spanish moss). Does it look familiar? Note the orchid blooming on the table in front of you, hanging above the sign 5-1. Follow along the wall of Tillandsia to the back of the room. Note the bromeliads on your left as you walk. You should see Neoregelia, with some red leaves amidst the mainly green ones. Note how the infloresence is in the shallow depression holding water at the center of the plant. There may be a few flowers actually opening. Be sure to stop and look at the pineapple (Ananas comosus), it’s in fruit now, we’ve missed the flowers. Before reaching the end of Row-1, check out the pink inflorescence of Aechmea fasciata. All I could see are pinkish bracts, but purplish flowers will eventually emerge from above each bract. Near the end of the row is a big bromeliad with a pinkish flag stuck in the pot. This is Vriesea hieroglyphica, look at the label (please don’t remove it or touch it, you can easily read the label in its current position). What is the number in the top, right corner? ___________ (2 pts) If you have time you should take a look around the room, there are many orchids currently in flower.

E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Bromeliads grow almost exclusively in the New World tropics and subtropics, mainly in South America in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest (ca. 1200 species). Within the last few decades, their beautiful shapes and colors, low maintenance and easy adaptability to small gardens have brought bromeliads into worldwide use as ornamental plants. While the ornamental bromeliad trade could make significant contributions to household economies in rural areas, the trade may represent a significant threat in some of the bromeliad biodiversity hotspot countries such as Brazil, Bolivia and Colombia.

Biodiversidade Brasileira Número Temático Manejo Do Fogo Em Áreas Protegidas Editorial
Editorial 1 Biodiversidade Brasileira Número Temático Manejo do Fogo em Áreas Protegidas Editorial Katia Torres Ribeiro1, Helena França2, Heloísa Sinatora Miranda3 & Christian Niel Berlinck4 Neste segundo número de Biodiversidade Brasileira trazemos ampla e variada discussão sobre o manejo do fogo em áreas protegidas. Abrimos assim a segunda linha editorial da revista, que visa à publicação dos resultados técnico-científicos do processo de avaliação do estado de conservação das espécies bem como, na forma de números temáticos, a discussão, entre pesquisadores de diversas áreas e gestores, de temas críticos relacionados à conservação e ao manejo. A dimensão alcançada pelos incêndios em áreas naturais, rurais e urbanas do Brasil no ano de 2010 explicitou à sociedade, mais uma vez, a situação dramática e quase cotidiana em grande parte do país, no que diz respeito ao fogo. É claro que a situação pregressa e a atual não são admissíveis. No entanto, tem-se cada vez maior clareza de que a resposta ao emprego do fogo no Brasil, com sua tamanha complexidade, não pode se pautar apenas na proibição do seu uso e no combate aos focos que ocorrerem. A situação é mais complexa – o fogo é ainda ferramenta importante em muitas áreas rurais, do ponto de vista sócio-econômico, mesmo considerando o investimento em novas tecnologias, além de ser uma expressão de conflitos diversos. Seu uso pode ser, em alguns contextos, eventualmente preferível em comparação com outras opções acessíveis de trato da terra, e há ainda situações em que seu emprego intencional pode ser recomendável como ferramenta de manejo de áreas protegidas. É preciso investir na consolidação da informação, disseminação do conhecimento e discussão para que possamos, como sociedade e governo, ter uma visão mais completa do fenômeno ‘fogo’ no país, considerando a complexidade de ecossistemas, paisagens, e contextos sócio-econômicos, de modo a construir boas estratégias de manejo.

Australia - 0448188899 some thoughts on the Aesthetics of Bromeliads Lloyd Godman http://www2.estrellamountain.edu/faculty/farabee/BIOBK/ BioBookPS.html 30/5/2015 Introduction Responding to colour, and form, humans are créatures visuelles. It is no surprise then that the wildly diverse variations of leaf colour, shape and structural form in plants from the family Bromeliaceae (Bromeliads) for many admirers prove irre- sistibly intriguing and captivating. A little research reveals that this amazing family of plants are indeed credited with offering the widest range of variation of colour and shape within any plant family. This is not only witnessed this in the leaf, but also in the colours and shapes of the appendages associated with flowering. Beyond the seductive visuals, an understanding of the fascinating biology Brome- liads have evolved, reveals complex systems far advanced from the first plants that emerged on land during the Ordovician period, around 450 million years ago. In fact, even the earliest examples within the family are very recent arrivals to the 1 kingdom plantea appearing but 70-50 million years ago with many of the 3,000 species evolving just 15 million years ago; about the same time as primates began to populate the planet.

Dra. Ana Paula Gelli de Faria. Juiz de Fora - MG Maio de 2013 II III IV AGRADECIMENTOS Em primeiro lugar gostaria de chamar a atenção a esta seção, pois é onde a verdadeira metodologia da pesquisa aparece, a metodologia das parcerias, amizades e colaborações que fazem a ciência acontecer. Não afirmo que as teorias, técnicas e referências não sejam importantes, mas o que permitiu, de verdade, a idealização, realização e a atual conclusão do presente trabalho, aparece aqui. Agradeço em primeiro lugar a Deus, que refrigera a alma nos momentos difíceis, que com certeza me segurou em algumas pirambeiras, que distraiu algumas cobras, que desviou meus olhos de muitos acúleos e permitiu que eu encontrasse todas essas outras pessoas. Agradeço aos meus pais e toda a minha família. Este MUITO OBRIGADA não é só pelo carinho, pela ajuda no cotidiano pessoal, apoio moral e à minha formação (o que não é pouca coisa), mas também pela contribuição significativa aos resultados alcançados.
