This family—division Magnoliophyta, class Magnoliopsida (dicots), subclass Dilleniidae, order Salicales—includes the familiar genera Populus (poplars, cottonwoods, and aspens) and Salix (willows, sallows, and osiers)1. Together Populus and Salix comprise 400 to 500 species (Table 2-1), although there is no agreement among taxonomists as to the exact number. Added to those numbers are countless subspecies, varieties, hybrids, and cultivars that together encompass a diversity of morphological forms that, although bordering on the incomprehensible, is beautiful and wonderful nonetheless.

  • Genome-Wide Comparative Analyses of GATA Transcription Factors Among 19 Arabidopsis Ecotype Genomes: Intraspecifc Characteristics of GATA Transcription Factors
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Genome‑wide comparative analyses of GATA transcription factors among seven Populus genomes Mangi Kim1,2, Hong Xi1,2, Suhyeon Park1,2, Yunho Yun1,2 & Jongsun Park1,2* GATA transcription factors (TFs) are widespread eukaryotic regulators whose DNA‑binding domain is a class IV zinc fnger motif (CX2CX17–20CX2C) followed by a basic region. We identifed 262 GATA genes (389 GATA TFs) from seven Populus genomes using the pipeline of GATA‑TFDB. Alternative splicing forms of Populus GATA genes exhibit dynamics of GATA gene structures including partial or full loss of GATA domain and additional domains. Subfamily III of Populus GATA genes display lack CCT and/ or TIFY domains. 21 Populus GATA gene clusters (PCs) were defned in the phylogenetic tree of GATA domains, suggesting the possibility of subfunctionalization and neofunctionalization. Expression analysis of Populus GATA genes identifed the fve PCs displaying tissue‑specifc expression, providing the clues of their biological functions. Amino acid patterns of Populus GATA motifs display well conserved manner of Populus GATA genes. The fve Populus GATA genes were predicted as membrane‑ bound GATA TFs. Biased chromosomal distributions of GATA genes of three Populus species. Our comparative analysis approaches of the Populus GATA genes will be a cornerstone to understand various plant TF characteristics including evolutionary insights. A transcription factor (TF) is a protein that controls the rate of transcription by binding to specifc DNA sequences, including promoter regions. TF can also combine and interact with cis-acting elements in the pro- moter region as well as interact with other proteins to regulate the start site of transcription1.

    Nutrient Cycling and the Role of Arbuscular Mycorrhizae in Created and Natural Wetlands of Central Ohio DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Katie Hossler, B.S., M.S. Environmental Science Graduate Program The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Professor Virginie Bouchard, Co-Advisor Professor Robert J. Gates, Co-Advisor Professor Siobhan Fennessy Professor Dawn Gibas Ferris Professor Richard Moore c Copyright by Katie Hossler 2010 ABSTRACT This dissertation details a comprehensive study of the ecology and development of the soil and carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus cycles in freshwater marshes. Beyond broadening our understanding of wetland development and ecology, this work intents to enlighten evaluation of wetland mitigation policy, as well as facilitate the success of wetland creation projects. Ten created and five natural freshwater marshes of central Ohio are the focus throughout the study. One of the central chapters (Ch. 3) compares structure and function between created and natural wetlands. The most important finding is that there are significant differences between created and natural wetland soils; this leads to smaller nutrient stocks and slower nutrient cycles in the created wetlands. Time-to-equilibrium estimates for the development of soil and nutrient-related functions are explored in Ch. 4. It is determined that overcoming these differences will require more time than is acceptable for most mitigation policies. The final two chapters explore the habit and ecology of arbuscular mycorrhizae (AM) in created and natural marshes. The presence of AM was high in both created and natural wetlands and across created wetland age.

    Poplars and Willows Trees for Society and the Environment This volume is respectfully dedicated to the memory of Victor Steenackers. Vic, as he was known to his friends, was born in Weelde, Belgium, in 1928. His life was devoted to his family – his wife, Joanna, his 9 children and his 23 grandchildren. His career was devoted to the study and improve- ment of poplars, particularly through poplar breeding. As Director of the Poplar Research Institute at Geraardsbergen, Belgium, he pursued a lifelong scientific interest in poplars and encouraged others to share his passion. As a member of the Executive Committee of the International Poplar Commission for many years, and as its Chair from 1988 to 2000, he was a much-loved mentor and powerful advocate, spreading scientific knowledge of poplars and willows worldwide throughout the many member countries of the IPC. This book is in many ways part of the legacy of Vic Steenackers, many of its contributing authors having learned from his guidance and dedication. Vic Steenackers passed away at Aalst, Belgium, in August 2010, but his work is carried on by others, including mem- bers of his family.

In this study, we investigated the flora of Gwang- deoksan Mt. from April of 2015 to October of 2017. Through 20 independent field investigations, we identified and tallied a total of 428 species, 9 subspecies, 30 varieties, and a forma in 287 genera and 97 families. Of a total of 468 taxa, 128 taxa in 112 genera and 58 families were found to be Korean endemic species (7 taxa), floristic regional indicator species (45 taxa), rare or endangered species (3 taxa), species subject to the approval of out- bound transfer (73 taxa), and alien or ecosystem disturbing species (32 taxa). The flora of Gwangdeoksan Mt. can be divided into four distinct floristic subregions, with higher diversity in the north-facing subregion. The complex flora of Gwangdeoksan Mt., emerging at the edge of two floristic regions of the Korean peninsula, may represent a significant conservation priority and a topic for future ecological and geographical studies.

  • STRESS TOLERANCE and HORTICULTURAL EVALUATION of the GENUS SALIX DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requiremen
    STRESS TOLERANCE AND HORTICULTURAL EVALUATION OF THE GENUS SALIX DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Yulia A.Kuzovkina-Eischen, M.S. ***** The Ohio State University 2003 Dissertation Committee: Professor Martin F.Quigley, Adviser Approved by Professor Michael Knee Professor Steven Still ______________________ Professor Davis Sydnor Adviser Horticulture and Crop Science ABSTRACT The objectives of this study were to investigate the adaptability of the genus Salix to stressful conditions and to promulgate its ornamental potential. This research has focused on Salix’s tolerance of natural and anthropogenic stresses, including flooded soils, soil compaction, heavy metals, and ozone pollution; all are common conditions in urban environments. I found that neither soil compaction nor flooding caused a significant reduction in the growth of willows, but that anaerobic conditions rapidly triggered a wide range of morphological adaptations. The copper and cadmium uptake study, conducted in a greenhouse hydroponic system, revealed a general tolerance of willows of increased metal in the solution and the translocation of metal into plant aerial organs; copper appears to be more toxic to plants and less mobile than cadmium. The response of Salix species to acute ozone exposure was studied in a fumigation chamber and it revealed marked interspecific differences; both ozone-sensitive and ozone-tolerant species were documented. The ornamental qualities of cut branches from twenty species and cultivars of shrubby willows were evaluated and described in detail, focusing on those attributes, and phenological sequence, important for the floral industry. More than fifty promising willow species for alpine and small urban gardens were selected based on multi-year observations.
