  • A Molecular Phylogeny of the Genus Scadoxus Raf. (Amaryllidaceae)
    Fireball lilies of Africa: a molecular phylogeny of the genus Scadoxus Raf. (Amaryllidaceae) Kine Hals Bødker Master of Science Thesis Natural History Museum, University of Oslo Centre for Ecological and Evolutionary Synthesis, Department of Biosciences, University of Oslo June 15th 2020 © Kine Hals Bødker 2020 Fireball lilies of Africa: a molecular phylogeny of the genus Scadoxus Raf. (Amaryllidaceae) Kine Hals Bødker http://www.duo.uio.no/ Print: Reprosentralen, University of Oslo II Illustration: Aasne Aarhus, 1976. III IV Acknowledgements It has been an exciting journey working with the most beautiful plant genus of this world. There are many people I would like to thank for being a part of this journey. First and foremost, I want to thank my wonderful supervisors for all their help and support over the past two years. I could not have had a better team. My main supervisor, Charlotte - for your enthusiasm, knowledge, support and the most amazing field trips. In the 1970’s, before I was even born, Inger (and colleagues) worked with Scadoxus, which set the stage for this master thesis. I would like to thank Inger for being my additional supervisor and ultimately giving me this opportunity, and helping me understand more of Scadoxus morphology. Anne – for helping with the analyses, and especially for the incredibly helpful checking of spelling, grammatical errors and also helping me discourse my occasionally overwhelming results. Prof. Clemence Zimudzi and Dr. Tesfaye Awas – for fantastic field work experiences in Zimbabwe and Ethiopia, respectively. I would also like to thank the little kids in Ethiopia who helped us find Scadoxus specimens in places we never would have found without them.

  • Networks in a Large-Scale Phylogenetic Analysis: Reconstructing Evolutionary History of Asparagales (Lilianae) Based on Four Plastid Genes
    Networks in a Large-Scale Phylogenetic Analysis: Reconstructing Evolutionary History of Asparagales (Lilianae) Based on Four Plastid Genes Shichao Chen1., Dong-Kap Kim2., Mark W. Chase3, Joo-Hwan Kim4* 1 College of Life Science and Technology, Tongji University, Shanghai, China, 2 Division of Forest Resource Conservation, Korea National Arboretum, Pocheon, Gyeonggi- do, Korea, 3 Jodrell Laboratory, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, Richmond, United Kingdom, 4 Department of Life Science, Gachon University, Seongnam, Gyeonggi-do, Korea Abstract Phylogenetic analysis aims to produce a bifurcating tree, which disregards conflicting signals and displays only those that are present in a large proportion of the data. However, any character (or tree) conflict in a dataset allows the exploration of support for various evolutionary hypotheses. Although data-display network approaches exist, biologists cannot easily and routinely use them to compute rooted phylogenetic networks on real datasets containing hundreds of taxa. Here, we constructed an original neighbour-net for a large dataset of Asparagales to highlight the aspects of the resulting network that will be important for interpreting phylogeny. The analyses were largely conducted with new data collected for the same loci as in previous studies, but from different species accessions and greater sampling in many cases than in published analyses. The network tree summarised the majority data pattern in the characters of plastid sequences before tree building, which largely confirmed the currently recognised phylogenetic relationships. Most conflicting signals are at the base of each group along the Asparagales backbone, which helps us to establish the expectancy and advance our understanding of some difficult taxa relationships and their phylogeny.

Box 524, Auckland Park 2006, South Africa Abstract A broad review is presented of recent developments in the commercialization of southern Africa indigenous flora for the cut flower trade, in- cluding potted flowers and foliages (“greens”). The botany, horticultural traits and potential for commercialization of several indigenous plants have been reported in several publications. The contribution of species indigenous and/or endemic to southern Africa in the development of cut flower crop plants is widely acknowledged. These include what is known in the trade as gladiolus, freesia, gerbera, ornithogalum, clivia, agapan- thus, strelitzia, plumbago and protea. Despite the wealth of South African flower bulb species, relatively few have become commercially important in the international bulb industry. Trade figures on the international markets also reflect the importance of a few species of southern African origin. The development of new research tools are contributing to the commercialization of South African plants, although propagation, cultivation and post-harvest handling need to be improved. A list of commercially relevant southern African cut flowers (including those used for fresh flowers, dried flowers, foliage and potted flowers) is presented, together with a subjective evaluation of several genera and species with perceived potential for the development of new crops for the florist trade.
