April 26, 2019
April 26, 2019 Theodore Payne Foundation’s Wild Flower Hotline is made possible by donations, memberships, and the generous support of S&S Seeds. Now is the time to really get out and hike the trails searching for late bloomers. It’s always good to call or check the location’s website if you can, and adjust your expectations accordingly before heading out. Please enjoy your outing, and please use your best flower viewing etiquette. Along Salt Creek near the southern entrance to Sequoia National Park, the wildflowers are abundant and showy. Masses of spring flowering common madia (Madia elegans) are covering sunny slopes and bird’s-eye gilia (Gilia tricolor) is abundant on flatlands. Good crops of owl’s clover (Castilleja sp.) are common in scattered colonies and along shadier trails, woodland star flower (Lithophragma sp.), Munz’s iris (Iris munzii), and the elegant naked broomrape (Orobanche uniflora) are blooming. There is an abundance of Chinese houses (Collinsia heterophylla) and foothill sunburst (Pseudobahia heermanii). This is a banner year for the local geophytes. Mountain pretty face (Tritelia ixiodes ssp. anilina) and Ithuriel’s spear (Triteliea laxa) are abundant. With the warming temperatures farewell to spring (Clarkia cylindrical subsp. clavicarpa) is starting to show up with their lovely bright purple pink floral display and is particularly noticeable along highway 198. Naked broom rape (Orobanche uniflora), foothill sunburst (Pseudobahia heermanii). Photos by Michael Wall © Theodore Payne Foundation for Wild Flowers & Native Plants, Inc. No reproduction of any kind without written permission. The trails in Pinnacles National Park have their own personality reflecting the unusual blooms found along them. -

Advancement in Medicinal Plant Research Vol. 9(1), pp. 1-10, January 2021 ISSN: 2354-2152 Review Mirabilis jalapa: A review of ethno and pharmacological activities Farjana Islam Liya, Mt. Farzana Yasmin, Nargis Sultana Chowdhury*, Tasnia Khasru Charu and Ismat Benta Fatema Department of Pharmacy, Manarat International University, Ashulia Model Town, Khagan, Ashulia, Dhaka, Bangladesh. Accepted 4 January, 2021 ABSTRACT Plants have been used for thousands of years to treat, prevent, and control a variety of diseases throughout the world. The initial benefits of using plant-derived medicine are that they are relatively safer than artificial alternatives. Mirabilis jalapa Linn. (Nyctaginaceae) is one of the plants that used for health care and medicinal purposes for several thousands of years. It is a perennial bushy herb promulgate by flowers or leaves, a native of America and commonly known as ‘four-o-clock’. It has traditionally been used in the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders, muscle pain, abdominal colic, and diarrhea in ancient Mexico, Japan, China and Brazil. The literature review revealed that M. jalapa is widely used as anti-oxidant, anti- inflammatory, anti-microbial, anti-diabetic, cytotoxic, antinociceptive, and several other’s medicines. In aerial parts of the M. jalapa, triterpene and flavonoids are found. Flowers mostly contain anthocyanins and flavonoids. Carbohydrate, resin and alkaloids are found in roots. Tricosan-12-one, n-hexacosanal, β- sitosterol, and tetracosanoic were isolated from the leaves of the M. jalapa. Seeds contain β-sitosterol, β- amyrin and β-sitosterol-D-glucoside. The presence of various bioactive compounds validates the whole plant for different medicinal practitioners. -

T"-"""'••••"•""• Ioannis Panagopoulos TtthwrtrtiMi Effaces of ultraviolet radiation on Hibiscus rosa-sinensis, Beta vulparis and Helianthus annuus ' It is believed that increased levels of ultraviolet-B radiation (UV-B; 280-320 nm) will result in serious , threat to plants. In the present study the effects of UV (particularly UV-B) were studied on chlorophyll fluorescence, ultraweak luminescence (UL) and plant growth. Parameters related to light emission were ' determined, and the effects of UV-B on hypocotyl elongation and levels of free IAA were examined. Hibiscus rosa-sinensis L, Beta vulgaris L. and Helianthus annuus L. were used as material. They were - grown in greenhouse or in grc *th chambers and exposed to short or long term UV-B simulating different levels of ozone depletion, abort exposure of Hibiscus leaves to UV resulted in a gradual increase in both : UL and peroxidase activity followed by a decline after 72 h and a decrease in variable chlorophyll fluorescence. The action of UV-B on sugar beet plants depended on light quality and irradiance and : infection by Cercospora beticola Sacc. The interaction between UV-B and the disease resulted in a large ; reduction of dry weight and enhanced UL The lowest Chi a and growth was found in plants grown under 1 low irradiance and exposed to UV-B supplemented with UV-A (320-400 nm). -
197 Section 9 Sunflower (Helianthus
SECTION 9 SUNFLOWER (HELIANTHUS ANNUUS L.) 1. Taxonomy of the Genus Helianthus, Natural Habitat and Origins of the Cultivated Sunflower A. Taxonomy of the genus Helianthus The sunflower belongs to the genus Helianthus in the Composite family (Asterales order), which includes species with very diverse morphologies (herbs, shrubs, lianas, etc.). The genus Helianthus belongs to the Heliantheae tribe. This includes approximately 50 species originating in North and Central America. The basis for the botanical classification of the genus Helianthus was proposed by Heiser et al. (1969) and refined subsequently using new phenological, cladistic and biosystematic methods, (Robinson, 1979; Anashchenko, 1974, 1979; Schilling and Heiser, 1981) or molecular markers (Sossey-Alaoui et al., 1998). This approach splits Helianthus into four sections: Helianthus, Agrestes, Ciliares and Atrorubens. This classification is set out in Table 1.18. Section Helianthus This section comprises 12 species, including H. annuus, the cultivated sunflower. These species, which are diploid (2n = 34), are interfertile and annual in almost all cases. For the majority, the natural distribution is central and western North America. They are generally well adapted to dry or even arid areas and sandy soils. The widespread H. annuus L. species includes (Heiser et al., 1969) plants cultivated for seed or fodder referred to as H. annuus var. macrocarpus (D.C), or cultivated for ornament (H. annuus subsp. annuus), and uncultivated wild and weedy plants (H. annuus subsp. lenticularis, H. annuus subsp. Texanus, etc.). Leaves of these species are usually alternate, ovoid and with a long petiole. Flower heads, or capitula, consist of tubular and ligulate florets, which may be deep purple, red or yellow. -

ATOLL RESEARCH BULLETIN NO. 503 THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF MAJURO ATOLL, REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS BY NANCY VANDER VELDE ISSUED BY NATIONAL MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION WASHINGTON, D.C., U.S.A. AUGUST 2003 Uliga Figure 1. Majuro Atoll THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF MAJURO ATOLL, REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS ABSTRACT Majuro Atoll has been a center of activity for the Marshall Islands since 1944 and is now the major population center and port of entry for the country. Previous to the accompanying study, no thorough documentation has been made of the vascular plants of Majuro Atoll. There were only reports that were either part of much larger discussions on the entire Micronesian region or the Marshall Islands as a whole, and were of a very limited scope. Previous reports by Fosberg, Sachet & Oliver (1979, 1982, 1987) presented only 115 vascular plants on Majuro Atoll. In this study, 563 vascular plants have been recorded on Majuro. INTRODUCTION The accompanying report presents a complete flora of Majuro Atoll, which has never been done before. It includes a listing of all species, notation as to origin (i.e. indigenous, aboriginal introduction, recent introduction), as well as the original range of each. The major synonyms are also listed. For almost all, English common names are presented. Marshallese names are given, where these were found, and spelled according to the current spelling system, aside from limitations in diacritic markings. A brief notation of location is given for many of the species. The entire list of 563 plants is provided to give the people a means of gaining a better understanding of the nature of the plants of Majuro Atoll. -

It is a well known ornamental plant as the flowers of different colours can be found simultaneously on the same plant or an individual flower can be splashed with different colours. The colour-changing phenomenon is one of the unique characteristics of M. jalapa as it can display flowers with different colour when it matures. Apart from its ornamental value, it has also earned its place in herbal medicine practices around the world. Its array of biological activities continues to support its use worldwide for control of viruses, fungi and yeast. In this study, callus culture was initiated from the leaf explants of M. jalapa. The suitable strength of MS (Murashige and Skoog) nutrient media was determined and the effects of different types of auxins [4-amino-3,5,6-trichloro picolinic acid (picloram), 2,4- dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), -naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA)] and cytokinin [6-benzyl amino purine (BAP)] at 0.0 2.5, 5.0, 7.5, 10.0, and 20.0 M were investigated in order to determine the suitable callus induction and maintenance media. -
