JOHN BECKNER Curator Orchid Identification Center, Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, 811 South Palm Ave., Sarasota, Florida 32667, USA. [email protected] ABSTRACT. Guarianthe Dressler & W.E.Higgins as a genus has found little favor with orchid growers. If these species are a distinct genus from Cattleya Lindl., under any name, the effects will be substantial. All taxa of this alliance are of considerable horticultural importance, as species and in the ancestry of thousands of garden hybrids. In any case, Guarianthe cannot be replaced by Epicladium Small, which was based on Epidendrum boothianum. RESUMEN. El nombre genérico Guarianthe Dressler & W.E.Higgins ha sido poco aceptado por los horticultores. Si se trata de un género diferente a Cattleya Lindl., este hecho es significativo. Todas las especies de Guarianthe tienen gran importancia hortícola y han dado origen a miles de híbridos artificiales. En todo caso, Guarianthe no puede ser reemplazado por Epicladium Small, el cual se basa en Epidendrum boothianum. Ambos nombres genéricos no son equivalentes.

Its chromo- some number was revealed to be 2n = 53, lending strong support for its hybridity and parental origin (S. calendulacea with 2n = 50 and S. trilobata with 2n = 56) as previously already confirmed by evidence from morphology and molecular data. Keywords: chromosome number, invasive species, parental origin Introduction Sphagneticola Hoffmann (1900: 36) (Asteraceae-Heliantheae) is a small genus of four species that are common at lower elevations in the tropical and subtropical regions of the world (though not known to occur in Africa), including S. brachycarpa (Baker 1884: 181) Pruski (1996: 411), S. calendulacea (Linnaeus 1753: 902) Pruski (1996: 411), S. gracilis (Richard 1807: 490) Pruski (1996: 412), and S. trilobata (Linnaeus 1759: 1233) Pruski (Pruski 1996: 412). Among them, the widespread Asian S. calendulacea is the only species native to China (Fujian, Guangong, Liaoning, Taiwan). Sphagneticola trilobata, native to the New World tropics but widespread in the Old World tropics, was originally cultivated as an ornamental ground cover in China but now has become an invasive species at least in Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, and Taiwan (Chen & Head 2011).

  • Impact of Sphagneticola Trilobata on Plant Diversity in Soils in South-East Viti Levu, Fiji
    Jun. 2013, Vol. 7, No. 6, pp. 635-642 Journal of Life Sciences, ISSN 1934-7391, USA D DAVID PUBLISHING Impact of Sphagneticola trilobata on Plant Diversity in Soils in South-East Viti Levu, Fiji Apaitia R. Macanawai Tropical Weed Research Unit, Plant Protection Section, Koronivia Research Station, Ministry of Agriculture, Nausori, Fiji Received: January 03, 2013 / Accepted: March 02, 2013 / Published: June 30, 2013. Abstract: Wedelia (Sphagneticola trilobata (L.) Pruski) has become one of the most dominant invasive plant species in Fiji. However, the soil seed bank of its monospecific stand and its ability to reproduce by seed is relatively unknown. A soil seed bank study was undertaken in a monospecific stand of S. trilobata in Sawani, Natavea and Wainivesi in south-east Viti Levu, Fiji in March 2012. The soil samples were collected from within 1.0 m2 quadrat taken at 10 spots in each of the study areas and spread thinly over a base of Yates Thrive Premium potting mix in seedling trays and placed in a glasshouse at Koronivia Research Station, Fiji. A total of 23, 26 and 33 plant species were found in the soil seed bank in Wainivesi, Sawani and Natavea respectively which may have succumbed to S. trilobata invasiability. There were ca. 3,800 (17%), 2,100 (11%) and 2,600 (6%) germinable S. trilobata seeds·m-2 in the soil seed bank in Wainivesi, Sawani and Natavea areas respectively. This study has demonstrated that S. trilobata seeds may have a role in the spread of the invasive species in Fiji and movement of soil to S.

Abstract Availability of comprehensive phylogenetic tree for flowering plants which includes many of the economically important crops and trees is one of the essential requirements of plant biologists for diverse applications. It is the first study on the use of chloroplast genome of 3265 Angiosperm taxa to identify evolutionary relationships among the plant species. Sixty genes from chloroplast genome was concatenated and utilized to generate the phylogenetic tree. Overall the phylogeny was in correspondence with Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG) IV classification with very few taxa occupying incongruous position either due to ambiguous taxonomy or incorrect identification. Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) were identified from almost all the taxa indicating the possibility of their use in various genetic analyses.

  • The Genus Encyclia (Hooker, Bot. Mag. 55: T. 2831 [1828]) Type: Encyclia Viridiflora [En-SEE-Clee-Ah Vi-Rid-I-FLOR-A]
    The Genus Encyclia (Hooker, Bot. Mag. 55: t. 2831 [1828]) Type: Encyclia viridiflora [en-SEE-clee-ah vi-rid-i-FLOR-a] There are 183 species and 16 natural hybrids (OrchidWiz [update Sep 2017]) that are mostly epiphytes that can be separated into two subgenera (not widely accepted but culturally convenient). Members of the subgenus Encyclia are principally found in seasonally dry forest at elevations from sea level to 1000 meters, while members of the subgenus Osmophytum are found in wet forest from sea level to 3,000 meters. Encyclias are distributed throughout the tropical Americas (including the West Indies, see distribution map below) with the center of distribution being in Mexico. These plants are highly variable, clump-forming, evergreen with the genus characterized by the presence of pseudobulbs; the apical inflorescence; the flowers not exceeding four centimeters in diameter; the lip free from the column for most of its length; the column without a foot; and the four hard pollinia attached to caudicles. The slender, often multibranched, numerous to few-flowered inflorescence, borne from the stem tip, has showy, wonderfully fragrant flowers found in a wide range of colors and shades of yellow, brown, green or rare pink. The flowers have similar sepals and petals. The widely varied, Encyclia viridiflora entire or trilobed lip encircles the stout or slender, footless column, but is never fully attached. These plants are best mounted on branches or tree fern plaques and generally do best in intermediate conditions. Encyclia is part of the Cattleya alliance and is often used in Cattleya alliance breeding.
