We found 46 of the 358 described cycad species had at least one element reported to date. The only genus that was missing from the data was Microcycas. Many of the species reports contained concentrations of one to several macronutrients and no other elements. The cycad leaves contained greater nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations than the reported means for plants throughout the world. Magnesium was identified as the macronutrient that has been least studied.

Abdel Kawy, Waly; Yehia M. Abdel Fattah and Ali A. Shoman Department of Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, Suez Canal University, Ismailia, Egypt. Received: 28/10/2018 Abstract: Ponytail palm (Beaucarnea recurvet Lem.; Family Asparagaceae) is one of the most important plants in the internal and external coordination. This work was carried out to study the effect of media type (MS, B5 and WPM) and Benzylaminopurine BAP at 0, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6 mg/l during multiplication stage. The shoot tips were collected from in vitro seedlings cultured on MS medium without growth regulators. B5 medium supplemented with 0.4 mg/l (BAP) increased number of shoots (3.40 shoots/clump) and number of leaves (24) plant compared with other treatments. The B5 medium is preferable within mass production and featured commercial. The BAP Concentration 0.4 mg/l promotes shoots initiation and development with B5 medium more than MS and WPM. Keywords: Ponytail palm, Beaucarnea recurvata, tissue culture, micropropagation, BAP, media type, MS, B5, WPM INTRODUCTION MATERIALS AND METHODS Beaucarnea (Asparagaceae) is a Mexican and This study was carried out in the plant tissue Guatemalan genus that inhabits dry tropical areas.

Proliferated Megasporangiate Strobili of Zamia Furfuracea (Zamiaceae, Cycadales) and Its Possible Evolutionary Implications for the Origin of Cycad-Megasporophylls
Palaeodiversity 6: 135–147; Stuttgart, 30 December 2013. 135 Proliferated megasporangiate strobili of Zamia furfuracea (Zamiaceae, Cycadales) and its possible evolutionary implications for the origin of cycad-megasporophylls VEIT MARTIN DÖRKEN & BRIGITTE ROZYNEK Abstract At a 30-years-old individual of Zamia furfuracea (Zamiaceae, Cycadales) cultivated in the Botanic Garden Bo- chum (Germany), several proliferated megasporangiate strobili were found. The morphology of normal and prolif- erated strobili was compared. Within the proliferated strobili the sequence of megasporophylls, cataphylls, tropho- phyll-like leaves, followed again by a flush of cataphylls, was similar to those developed at the stems of extant Cycas species. However, all proliferated megasporangiate strobili were sterile. Within the proliferated strobili the pinnate trophophyll-like leaves that were replacing the terminal megasporophylls can be regarded as an atavism possibly reflecting the primitive character of megasporophylls in cycads. Thus, the results of the morphological examinations and also the comparison with fossil taxa may deliver new data supporting the idea that pinnate cycad-megasporo- phylls are a plesiomorphic feature within cycads. Keywords: Zamia, Cycadales, strobilus, megasporophyll, proliferation. 1. Introduction often wedge-shaped with a hexagonal outer face.

This project was focused on populations at the extreme northeast and northwest of the reported range of the species, both of which were not yet represented in living collections. Documented localities were visited, as well as other accessible sites with suitable habitat. The westernmost known population (Taylor County, FL), was located, surveyed, documented and collected. In addition, a small population even further to the west was also discovered, further extending the known range of this species. The northeasternmost location (Glynn County, GA), documented only once in 1971, was re-surveyed. This population was not found. Zamia integrifolia Project Report: Page 1 of 11. A unique lineage Zamia integrifolia L.f. is the only cycad native to the continental United States. It has great ornamental appeal and is also of great interest to science, coming from the most ancient lineage of extant seed plants. It is quite variable in habit and morphology throughout its range, from forms with narrow leaflets and few leaves in the south of its range to large specimens with wider leaflets and holding many leaves in the north-central part of its range and many other variants in between.

We propose a method for seed shape quantification based on the comparison of the bi-dimensional images of the seeds with geometric figures. J index is the percent of similarity of a seed image with a figure taken as a model. Models in shape quantification include geometrical figures (circle, ellipse, oval ::: ) and their derivatives, as well as other figures obtained as geometric representations of algebraic equations. The analysis is based on three sources: Published work, images available on the Internet, and seeds collected or stored in our collections. Some of the models here described are applied for the first time in seed morphology, like the superellipses, a group of bidimensional figures that represent well seed shape in species of the Calamoideae and Phoenix canariensis Hort. ex Chabaud.

Abstract Zamia acuminata has remained an obscure, poorly understood species for over a century due to possibly misinterpreted or erroneous locality data on the unicate sterile type specimen, a very brief protologue description, the misidentification of the plants from El Valle de Antón in Panama as Z. acuminata, and the erroneous determinations of plants of Z. acuminata from Costa Rica as Z. fairchildiana. Recently collected material from San José Province in Costa Rica is here determined to be identical to the single sterile leaf material of the holotype of Zamia acuminata. We consider Z.

Corregido 15-I-2014. Aceptado 13-II-2014. Abstract: Floral structure of two species of Trachycarpeae (Arecaceae). Copernicia and Washingtonia are two genera of the Trachycarpeae for which no subtribal classification has been proposed, mainly because of the lack of resolution in phylogenetic studies. Morphology and anatomy of flowers whithin Coryphoideae have proven useful for taxa delimitation and supporting relationships among their members. A description of the morphological and anatomical structure of flowers of C. tectorum and W. filifera is presented in order to explore reproductive characters that may clarify their classification within the subfamily and to contribute with floral biology studies. Flowers of cultivated specimens of both taxa and developing fruits of C. tectorum were fixed in FAA, dissected for morphological analysis, and parafin-embedded flowers and fruits were serially sectioned for obtaining permanent slides, using conventional techniques and safranin-fast green staining. All procedures were carried out in the Laboratory of Morpho-Anatomy, Agronomy Faculty of the Universidad Central de Venezuela (UCV). Both species have hermaphroditic flowers. C. tectorum flowers have a thick and pubescent perianth, six stamens with filaments forming a tube fused to the corolla, with rounded projections and an acute apex where the anthers are inserted.
