The primary objective of our research, which is supported by U.S. Agency for International Development Grant No. LAC-0605-G-SS- 7037-00, is to prepare a manual on Amazonian Ecuador's useful plants. This reference will incorporate data from our fieldwork, herbarium studies, and ethnobotanical publications. This data is vital if Ecuador and other tropical countries are to develop sustainable agricultural programs and fully benefit from the tropical rain forest's diversity. A second objective, nearing completion, is a study of the useful plants of the Shuar. Other goals are to prepare a preliminary database, train Ecuadorian students, and to assist Ecuadorian research organizations. FIELDWORK. Dr. Bradley C. Bennett (IEB and MECN), Srta. Patricia Gomez (CONACYT) and Sr. Efrain Freire (MECN) travelled to the Shuar Centro Yukutais in February 1990. They collected 130 species in primary, montane forest near Yukutais. Most of these were previously uncollected. This brings the total number of plants collected in Yukutais to more than 1000. Informants knew the names of about 80% of the recently collected plants and provided uses for more than half of these. We've not completely sampled the flora of Yukutais. Nonetheless, the February trip was our last major collecting trip for this project. We could USEFUL PLANTS OF AMAZONIAN ECUADOR - 2 continue fieldwork for several years but we feel obligated to complete a preliminary report on the useful plants from this region. This precludes additional fieldwork in the immediate future. SHUAR MANUSCRIPT. We've completed most of a manuscript on Shuar ethnobotany. Within the next year we will receive determinations of the plant voucher specimens and proceed with the publication of this document. Based on the determinations that we have received to date, we have information on the following number of taxa. FAMILIES ........................................ 118 TAXA IDENTIFIED TO DIVISION ......................... 34 FAMILY .......................... 223 GENUS ........................... 257 ..........................................................SPECIES ......................... 307 NUMBER OF TERMINAL TAXA ............................. 821 Some of the 821 taxa not yet identified to species will no doubt be duplicates of already-collected species. We estimate that the 821 terminal taxa represent about 725 species. The Shuar manuscript appears in Appendix A. MANUAL PREPARATION. At present we have common names and usages for 1855 taxa representing 152 plant families. Of the 1855 taxa 450 have not yet been identified to species. We therefore estimate that the manual will include about 1750 good species. The number of taxa is shown below. A list of the taxa USEFTJL PLANTS OF AMAZONIAN ECUADOR - 3 to be treated in the manual appears in Appendix B. FAMILIES ............................................ 152 TAXA IDENTIFIED TO FAMILY GENUS ........................... 372 ..........................................................SPECIES ........................ 1405 NUMBER OF TERMINAL TAXA ............................ 1855 Dioscorides has offered a contract to publish the manual (Appendix C). Bennett asked 10 ethnobotanical and taxonomical authorities for their comments on a sample description from the manual (Appendix D). None of the authorities felt that the descriptions were excessive. Nonetheless, wefre looking for places to reduce the manuscriptfs length so that the published version will be more affordable. Dioscorides has requested an $11,000 supplement to lower the final price of the book. We presently have only $4000 allocated for publication costs. The 69 illustrations prepared to date are included in Appendix E. Alejandro Suarez is preparing additional illustrations. About 200 of these will appear in the manual. CLASSIFICATION. A classification of the useful plants is presented in Appendix F. There are 18 major categories; the more important ones are divided into one or two levels of subcategories. Indices based on these categories will help users of the manual quickly find information. RELATED WORK. In February Bennett presented a paper entitled "Variation in plant names and uses among the Shuarw at USEFUL PLANTS OF AMAZONIAN ECUADOR - 4 the First Ecuadorian Ethnobotany and Economic Botany Symposium in Ecuador. He also participated in a panel discussion on the future of ethnobotany and socioeconomic development in Ecuador. His paper on the Shuar research and contribution to the panel discussion, lvEconomicand Sociologic aspects of Ethnob~tany~~will be published in the proceedings from the conference. These papers appear in Appendices G and H. Bennett also presented a summary of the u:S. A. I. D. supported research at the United Nations Development Program meeting in Quito. With the help of Douglas McMeekin, an environmental consultant working in Ecuador, Bennett arranged a collaborative project with Unocal. Unocal will provide the logistic support for botanists to work out of the company's Tiguino base camp in the Pastaza Province. U.S. and Ecuadorian scientists will collect plant voucher specimens and plant material for chemical analyzes at oil well sites being cleared by Unocal. RELATIONSHIP WITH MUSE0 ECUATORIANO DE CIENCIAS NATURALES. We continue to build a cooperative relationship with the Ecuadorian Museum of Natural Sciences (MECN). We provided six months of the salary for a herbarium technician and money to buy supplies. The Museum recently named Dr. Bradley Bennett a honorary assistant curator of the National ~erbarium. We are presently looking for additional cooperative projects with the Museum. FINANCES. Through the careful use of research funds and supplements from other grants we have money remaining at the end USEFUL PLANTS OF AMAZONIAN ECUADOR - 5 of the grant's original two year tenure. A one year no-cost extension was recently approved by Washington. The original grant allocated $12,000 for training of Ecuadorian students. A previous U.S. A.I.D. grant to the New York and St. Louis Botanical Gardens also allocated money for student training. Twc 1 students were brought to the U.S., one studied at New York and the other at St. Louis. Both returned to Ecuador but are no longer working directly in botany. We therefore thought it more prudent to give broader training to more students. Dr. Bennett taught an ethnobotany course for the School for Field Studies last summer. U.S. students paid $2000 each for tuition and room and board. Four Ecuadorian students attended the class at no cost. Bennett will teach the course again this summer and has invited 8 Ecuadorians to attend. Ecuadorian students will therefore receive $24,000 of training at no cost. In addition, three students have received field and herbarium training for periods of at least six months. F'UTURE PROJECTS. Our immediate goal is to complete the Shuar study and the Manual on Ecuador's Useful Plants. Because of lowland Ecuador's incredible diversity this manual will be an incomplete one. We hope to continue documenting the uses of plants by Ecuador's native people and will seek funding to do this. In addition we have four other projects we 'd like to consider for Ecuador. Our data does little good unless we can find ways to implement its use. The four projects we would like to consider are: USEFUL PLANTS OF AMAZONIAN ECUADOR - 6 1.

Historical Setting of the Guianan Plant Heritage The Guianas are embedded high in the green shoulder of northern South America, an area once known as the "Wild Coast". They are the only non-Latin American countries in South America, and are situated just north of the Equator in a configuration with the Amazon River of Brazil to the south and the Orinoco River of Venezuela to the west. The three Guianas comprise, from west to east, the countries of Guyana (area: 83,000 square miles; capital: Georgetown), Surinam (area: 63, 037 square miles; capital: Paramaribo) and French Guiana (area: 34, 740 square miles; capital: Cayenne). Perhaps the earliest physical contact between Europeans and the present-day Guianas occurred in 1500 when the Spanish navigator Vincente Yanez Pinzon, after discovering the Amazon River, sailed northwest and entered the Oyapock River, which is now the eastern boundary of French Guiana.

  • A Molecular Taxonomic Treatment of the Neotropical Genera
    An Intrageneric and Intraspecific Study of Morphological and Genetic Variation in the Neotropical Compsoneura and Virola (Myristicaceae) by Royce Allan David Steeves A Thesis Presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Botany Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Royce Steeves, August, 2011 ABSTRACT AN INTRAGENERIC AND INTRASPECIFIC STUDY OF MORPHOLOGICAL AND GENETIC VARIATION IN THE NEOTROPICAL COMPSONEURA AND VIROLA (MYRISTICACEAE) Royce Allan David Steeves Advisor: University of Guelph, 2011 Dr. Steven G. Newmaster The Myristicaceae, or nutmeg family, consists of 21 genera and about 500 species of dioecious canopy to sub canopy trees that are distributed worldwide in tropical rainforests. The Myristicaceae are of considerable ecological and ethnobotanical significance as they are important food for many animals and are harvested by humans for timber, spices, dart/arrow poison, medicine, and a hallucinogenic snuff employed in medico-religious ceremonies. Despite the importance of the Myristicaceae throughout the wet tropics, our taxonomic knowledge of these trees is primarily based on the last revision of the five neotropical genera completed in 1937. The objective of this thesis was to perform a molecular and morphological study of the neotropical genera Compsoneura and Virola. To this end, I generated phylogenetic hypotheses, surveyed morphological and genetic diversity of focal species, and tested the ability of DNA barcodes to distinguish species of wild nutmegs. Morphological and molecular analyses of Compsoneura. indicate a deep divergence between two monophyletic clades corresponding to informal sections Hadrocarpa and Compsoneura. Although 23 loci were tested for DNA variability, only the trnH-psbA intergenic spacer contained enough variation to delimit 11 of 13 species sequenced.

Analysis of chloroplast DNA sequences representing most genera of Cucurbitaceae, including Fevillea with four of its seven species, supports placing the new species in Fevillea despite its small (10–11.5 × 7.5–10 mm, 2–3 mm thick), flattened, and highly sculptured seeds, which are unusual in the genus. The molecular phylogeny also revealed that the recent sinking of the monotypic genus Anisosperma into Fevillea is not justified. Resumen— Se ilustra y describe Fevillea anomalsperma , una nueva especie de los boques semi-deciduos del noroeste de Bolivia. Aunque las hojas y las flores son típicas de Fevillea , las semillas pequeñas (10–11.5 x 7.5–10 mm, 2–3 mm de grueso), aplanadas y muy esculpidas de esta nueva especie no lo son. La posición de esta nueva especie dentro de Fevillea ha sido apoyado por análisis filogenéticos de secuencias de ADN del cloroplasto, en los cuales se ha incluido representantes de la mayoría de los géneros de Cucurbitaceae, junto con quatro especies de Fevillea .

Box 50007, SE-104 05 Stockholm, Sweden Phylogenetic interrelationships in the enlarged order Ericales were investigated by jackknife analysis of a combination of DNA sequences from the plastid genes rbcL, ndhF, atpB, and the mitochondrial genes atp1 and matR. Several well-supported groups were identi®ed, but neither a combination of all gene sequences nor any one alone fully resolved the relationships between all major clades in Ericales. All investigated families except Theaceae were found to be monophyletic. Four families, Marcgraviaceae, Balsaminaceae, Pellicieraceae, and Tetrameristaceae form a monophyletic group that is the sister of the remaining families. On the next higher level, Fouquieriaceae and Polemoniaceae form a clade that is sister to the majority of families that form a group with eight supported clades between which the interrelationships are unresolved: Theaceae-Ternstroemioideae with Ficalhoa, Sladenia, and Pentaphylacaceae; Theaceae-Theoideae; Ebenaceae and Lissocarpaceae; Symplocaceae; Maesaceae, Theophrastaceae, Primulaceae, and Myrsinaceae; Styr- acaceae and Diapensiaceae; Lecythidaceae and Sapotaceae; Actinidiaceae, Roridulaceae, Sarraceniaceae, Clethraceae, Cyrillaceae, and Ericaceae.

TTV is highly prevalent in populations from around the world. TTV isolates have been classified into five main phylogenetic groups (1-5) showing a large genetic distance between them. The presence of TTV has been detected in feces. However, whether all five TTV genogroups are excreted in feces and the frequency of these events are presently unknown. The presence of TTV DNA was assessed in feces from 135 Brazilian (0-90 years old) patients with gastroenteritis by using three PCR methods, including real-time PCR. One hundred and twenty one (91.1%) samples were positive with at least one method. Using a genogroup-specific assay, it was shown that all genogroups were present. Thirty-seven (27.4%), 27 (20.0%), 57 (42.2%), 29 (21.5%) and 33 (24.4%) fecal samples contained TTV isolates belonging to genogroups 1 to 5, respectively. Coinfections with two, three, four and five TTV genogroups were found in 23 (17.0%), 15 (11.1%), 7 (5.2%) and 7 (5.2%) fecal samples, respectively.
