Novel Habitats, Rare Plants and Roots Traits A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Applied Science at Lincoln University by Paula Ann Greer Lincoln University 2017 Abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Applied Science. Abstract Novel habitats, rare plants and root traits. by Paula Ann Greer The loss of native plant species through habitat loss has been happening in NZ since the arrival of humans. This is especially true in Canterbury where less than 1% of the lowland plains are believed to be covered in remnant native vegetation. Rural land uses are changing and farm intensification is creating novel habitats, including farm irrigation earth dams. Dam engineers prefer not to have plants growing on dams. Earth dams are consented for 100 years, they could be used to support threatened native plants. Within the farm conversion of the present study dams have created an average of 1.7 hectares of ‘new land’ on their outside slope alone, which is the area of my research. -

Mentha Atrolilacina (Lamiaceae), a New Species from South Australia
Telopea 12(4) 521–524 Mentha atrolilacina (Lamiaceae), a new species from South Australia Barry J. Conn1 and Daniel J. Duval2 1National Herbarium of New South Wales, Mrs Macquaries Road, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia Email: [email protected] 2SA Seed Conservation Centre, Botanic Gardens of Adelaide, North Terrace, Adelaide SA 5000, Australia Email: [email protected] Abstract The new species Mentha atrolilacina B.J.Conn and D.J.Duval (Lamiaceae) from south-eastern South Australia is here described. This species is morphologically similar to M. diemenica Sprengel, but can be distinguished by its flowers with a dark lilac corolla (cf. M. diemenica often purple to pale purple); corolla short, 3–3.5 mm long (cf. M. diemenica 4–7 mm long); anthers included (cf. M. diemenica ± distinctly exserted); petioles short, 0.8–1.5 mm long (cf. M. diemenica c. 3 mm long). Introduction The genus Mentha L. (Lamiaceae) consists of mostly perennial herbs and subshrubs in the tribe Mentheae (Harley in Harley et al. 2004). The genus comprises about 20 species in damp, open habitats, especially in the Mediterranean and Australasian regions (Harley in Harley et al. 2004). Prior to the discovery of M. atrolilacina, four species were recognised as naturally occurring in Australia, with an additional six species introduced and regarded as naturalised (Conn 1992, 1999). Mentha atrolilacina B.J.Conn and D.J.Duval sp. nov. a M. diemenica R.Br. corollis brevioribus (3–3.5 mm longis) atrolilacinis, antheris inclusis differt.

SPECIES SELECTION for PHYTOREMEDIATION of 36Cl/35Cl USING ANGIOSPERM PHYLOGENY and INTER-TAXA DIFFERENCES in UPTAKE
International Journal of Phytoremediation, 7:295–306, 2005 Copyright C Taylor & Francis Inc. ISSN: 1522-6514 print / 1549-7879 online DOI: 10.1080/16226510500327152 SPECIES SELECTION FOR PHYTOREMEDIATION OF 36Cl/35Cl USING ANGIOSPERM PHYLOGENY AND INTER-TAXA DIFFERENCES IN UPTAKE Neil Willey and Kathy Fawcett Centre for Research in Plant Science, Faculty of Applied Sciences, University of the West of England, Bristol, United Kingdom High concentrations of 35Cl and the radioisotope 36Cl (produced naturally by cosmic radia- tion and anthropogenically by U fission and the use of neutron sources) can be problematic in soil, but are potentially amenable to phytoremediation if appropriate plants can be found. Here, results are reported that might aid the selection of plants with unusually high or low uptake of 36Cl. A residual maximum likelihood analysis was used to estimate, from 13 experiments, relative 36Cl uptake by 106 species across the angiosperm phylogeny. Nested analysis of variance, coded using a recent angiosperm phylogeny, showed that there were significant inter-species differences in 36Cl uptake and that species behavior was not inde- pendent, but linked through their phylogeny. Eudicots had significantly higher 36Cl uptake than Monocots and related clades and, in particular the Orders Caryophyllales, Apiales, and Cucurbitales had high uptake while the Poales, Liliales, Brassicales, and Fabales had low uptake. Overall, 35% of the inter-taxa variation in 36Cl was attributed to the taxonomic ranks of Order and above, a significant phylogenetic effect compared with other elements for which similar analyses have been published. The implications of these findings for selecting plants for phytoremediation of soil contaminated with 35/36Cl are discussed. -
