  • Resolution of Deep Angiosperm Phylogeny Using Conserved Nuclear Genes and Estimates of Early Divergence Times
    ARTICLE Received 24 Mar 2014 | Accepted 11 Aug 2014 | Published 24 Sep 2014 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms5956 OPEN Resolution of deep angiosperm phylogeny using conserved nuclear genes and estimates of early divergence times Liping Zeng1, Qiang Zhang2, Renran Sun1, Hongzhi Kong3, Ning Zhang1,4 & Hong Ma1,5 Angiosperms are the most successful plants and support human livelihood and ecosystems. Angiosperm phylogeny is the foundation of studies of gene function and phenotypic evolution, divergence time estimation and biogeography. The relationship of the five divergent groups of the Mesangiospermae (B99.95% of extant angiosperms) remains uncertain, with multiple hypotheses reported in the literature. Here transcriptome data sets are obtained from 26 species lacking sequenced genomes, representing each of the five groups: eudicots, monocots, magnoliids, Chloranthaceae and Ceratophyllaceae. Phylogenetic analyses using 59 carefully selected low-copy nuclear genes resulted in highly supported relationships: sisterhood of eudicots and a clade containing Chloranthaceae and Ceratophyllaceae, with magnoliids being the next sister group, followed by monocots. Our topology allows a re-examination of the evolutionary patterns of 110 morphological characters. The molecular clock estimates of Mesangiospermae diversification during the late to middle Jurassic correspond well to the origins of some insects, which may have been a factor facilitating early angiosperm radiation. 1 State Key Laboratory of Genetic Engineering and Collaborative Innovation Center for Genetics and Development, Ministry of Education Key Laboratoryof Biodiversity Sciences and Ecological Engineering, Institute of Plant Biology, Institute of Biodiversity Science, Center for Evolutionary Biology, School of Life Sciences, Fudan University, 220 Handan Road, Yangpu District, Shanghai 200433, China. 2 Guangxi Institute of Botany, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Guilin 541006, China.

  • PINELLIA, ARISAEMA, ACORUS, and TYPHONIUM by Subhuti Dharmananda, Ph.D., Director, Institute for Traditional Medicine, Portland, Oregon
    PINELLIA, ARISAEMA, ACORUS, and TYPHONIUM by Subhuti Dharmananda, Ph.D., Director, Institute for Traditional Medicine, Portland, Oregon INTRODUCTION Pinellia, arisaema, acorus, and typhonium are Chinese herbs that all come from the Araceae family; they are the only members of this family that are used extensively in the Chinese medical system. Arisaema is the representative genus; in Chinese, the Araceae are known as the "tiannanxing" family, or the arisaema family. The underground portions (a corm-like rhizome) of each of the herbs are the parts used in medicine. All of these Chinese herbal medicines are characterized as being warming and phlegm-resolving. While each of the herbs have several uses, among the common applications is treatment of neurological disorders that are secondary to phlegm accumulation syndromes, such as epilepsy and post-stroke syndrome (see Table 1 for summary of actions and applications). The plants all produce toxic substances; some of these must be removed or counteracted by processing before using the medicinal part (in arisaema, pinellia, and typhonium). The leafy portions of all four plants, which are not used for internal medicine, are poisonous. TABLE 1: Summary of Actions and Sample Applications for the Araceae Herbs. The following information is obtained from Oriental Materia Medica (9), with slight editing of terms where it would clarify the meaning. Herbs Actions Applications harmonizes stomach, controls vomiting, cough and dyspnea, chest Pinellia vomiting, dries dampness, distention, stroke, phlegm-blockage

  • Molecular Identification of the Traditional Herbal Medicines, Arisaematis Rhizoma and Pinelliae Tuber, and Common Adulterants Via Universal DNA Barcode Sequences
    Molecular identification of the traditional herbal medicines, Arisaematis Rhizoma and Pinelliae Tuber, and common adulterants via universal DNA barcode sequences B.C. Moon, W.J. Kim, Y. Ji, Y.M. Lee, Y.M. Kang and G. Choi K-herb Research Center, Korea Institute of Oriental Medicine, Daejeon, Republic of Korea Corresponding author: B.C. Moon E-mail: [email protected] Genet. Mol. Res. 15 (1): gmr.15017064 Received August 10, 2015 Accepted October 6, 2015 Published February 19, 2016 DOI http://dx.doi.org/10.4238/gmr.15017064 ABSTRACT. Methods to identify Pinelliae Tuber and Arisaematis Rhizoma are required because of frequent reciprocal substitution between these two herbal medicines and the existence of several closely related plant materials. As a result of the morphological similarity of dried tubers, correct discrimination of authentic herbal medicines is difficult by conventional methods. Therefore, we analyzed DNA barcode sequences to identify each herbal medicine and the common adulterants at a species level. To verify the identity of these herbal medicines, we collected five authentic species (Pinellia ternata for Pinelliae Tuber, and Arisaema amurense, A. amurense var. serratum, A. erubescens, and A. heterophyllum for Arisaematis Rhizoma) and six common adulterant plant species. Maturase K (matK) and ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase large subunit (rbcL) genes were then amplified using universal primers. In comparative analyses of two DNA barcode sequences, we obtained 45 species-specific nucleotides sufficient to identify each species (except A. erubescens with matK) and 28 marker nucleotides for each species (except P. pedatisecta Genetics and Molecular Research 15 (1): gmr.15017064 ©FUNPEC-RP www.funpecrp.com.br B.C.

Through comparative analysis of PTA gene (pta) and its deduced amino acid sequence with those of other Araceae species, pta was found to encode a precursor lectin with signal peptide and to have extensive homology with those of other Araceae species. PTA was a heterotetrameric mannose-binding lectin with three mannose- binding boxes like lectins from other Araceae and Amaryllidaceae species. Southern blot analysis of the ge- nomic DNA revealed that pta belonged to a low-copy gene family. Northern blot analysis demonstrated that pta constitutively expressed in various plant tissues including root, leaf, stem and inflorescence. The pta cDNA sequence encoding for mature PTA protein was cloned into pET-32a plasmid and the resulting plasmid, pET- 32a-PTA containing Trx-PTA fusion protein, was investigated for the expression in E.

  • A Synopsis and a New Species of the E Asian Genus Pinellia (Araceae)
    Willdenowia 37 – 2007 503 GUANGHUA ZHU †, HENG LI & RONG LI A synopsis and a new species of the E Asian genus Pinellia (Araceae) Abstract Zhu, G. †, Li, H. & Li, R.: A synopsis and a new species of the E Asian genus Pinellia (Araceae).– Willdenowia 37: 503-522. – ISBN 0511-9618; © 2007 BGBM Berlin-Dahlem. doi:10.3372/wi.37.37209 (available via http://dx.doi.org/) The genus Pinellia is endemic to E Asia (China, Korea and Japan) with a centre of diversity in E China (Anhui, Zhejiang and Fujiang). Nine species are recognized, among which P. fujianensis is described as new to science. A key to the species, synonymies, descriptions, taxonomic notes, data on habitats and distribution are given and all species are illustrated. Key words: aroids, China, Korea, Japan. Introduction Pinellia Ten. is a small genus in the family Araceae, which contains 105 genera worldwide (Li 1986, Mayo & al. 1997). The genus is recognized by the present authors as having nine species, distributed in mainland China, Korea and Japan, with two species regionally naturalised in Eu- ropa, North America and Australia. The genus Pinellia was established in honour of Giovanni V. Pinelli (1535-1601) by M. Te- nore in 1839 based on P. tuberifera Ten., which is a superfluous name since Arum subulatum Desf. was cited as a synonym in the protologue. That latter name is a taxonomic synonym of Arum ternatum Thunb., which is the first known species now recognised as a member of Pinellia, namely P. ternata (Thunb.) Breitenb., and which was described by Thunberg (1784) from a plant collected in Japan between Iedo and Nagasaki.

A key for the identification of all Pinellia species in China, Korea and Japan is included. A detrended correspondence analysis identified 6 groups of taxa including the new species. From the 20 samples, analyzing 38 morphological characters. A discriminant function analysis was used to rigorously test the classification of specimens provided in the cluster analysis. DNA barcoding provided phylogenetic support using NJ and Bayesian methods to distinguish all six taxa including the putative new species.

MAO, C. Y. KANG and J. YANG, 2007. Rapid propagation of the medicinal plant Pinellia ternata by in vitro leaves culture. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 12: 01-06 Pinellia ternata (Thunb) Breit is an important medicinal plants. Its tubers,being called as Banxia in Chinese words, were a crude drug of traditional Chinese medicine and some pharma- ceutical products. For satisfying the demand of the drug market, some Chinese farmers began to cultivate this species in the field, and some breeders are work hard to domesticate this species into a crop. Dislike that of normal crops, the propagation rate of P. ternata is very low in nature condition. This study introduced a rapid propagation method by direct organogenesis of Pinellia ternata plantlets. This method used Pinellia ternata leaf as explants, and the regenerated in vitro plantlets obtained directly on the MS medium supplemented with the 0.5 mg/l benzyladenine and 0.5 mg/l α-naphthalene acetic acid. After transplanted into soil, the in vitro plantlets them- selves showed rapid growing and high nature propagation rate. In addition, the tubers of in vitro plants much less polluted by heavy mental such as plumbum, cadmium, hydrargyrum and arsenic, after a session growing in soil.

  • Herbal Treatment of Insomnia
    SEMINAR PAPER YK Wing Herbal treatment of insomnia !"#$ ○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ Insomnia is a common problem requiring appropriate recognition and management. Despite recent advances in the development of newer hypnotics in western medicine, a significant proportion of patients with insomnia, both locally and internationally, consume herbal hypnotics regularly. The safety and efficacy of these herbal remedies remains uncertain. In this paper, details of different herbs used in western and traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of insomnia are reviewed. Although current data suggests the use of some herbal treatments in insomnia may be efficacious, further laboratory and clinical studies are required. !"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<= !"#$%&'()*+,-./012 34+56789:; !"#$%&'()*+,-( ./0%&,12'34567 !"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;7< !"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;< !"#$%&'( Insomnia is very common The majority of studies indicate that insomnia affects between 10% and 30% of the population.
