WHAT ARE BACTERIA? Bacteria are microscopic single-cell organisms that repro­ duce by dividing in half. This process may occur as often as once every 20 minutes, or it may take several hours. In some of the faster multiplying species, a single bacterium can pro­ duce over 47 million descendants in 12 hours. Approximately 170 species of bacteria can cause disease on foliage plants. Bacteria cannot penetrate directly into plant tissue, but must enter through wounds or natural openings such as stomata (pores for air exchange) in leaves. CONDITIONS FAVORABLE FOR THE GROWTH AND MULTIPLICATION OF BACTERIA Bacteria are normally present on plant surfaces but will only cause problems when conditions are favorable for their growth and multiplication. These conditions include high hu­ midity, crowding, and poor air circulation around plants. Figure 1.

The genus contains polyhydroxy alkaloids that exhibit the glycosidase inhibitor activity. This paper reports a phytochemical screening of in vitro Aglaonema simplex plantlets and the potential compounds as alternatives of SR-B1 ligand that plays a role in reducing atherosclerosis. The phytochemical screening was conducted using Thin Layer Chromatography and Attenuated Total Reflectance-Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy on methanol crude extracts of leaves, stems and roots. SR-B1 ligand activities were tested on HepG2 cell line stably transfected with SR-B1 promoter. The results showed that the extracts contained secondary metabolites belonging to the terpenoids, steroids, phenolics, alkaloids and glycosides. Luciferase assay suggested that the stem and root extracts increased the expression of SR-B1 at 1.61- and 1.72-fold higher than the control, respectively. Thus, Aglaonema simplex is one of the potential sources of the phytochemicals for the treatment of atherosclerosis. The tissue culture technology may be applicable for sustainable production of the identified compounds from the plant.

PRYCHID and PAULA J. RUDALL Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, Richmond, Surrey, TW9 3DS, UK Received: 11 May 1999 Returned for Revision: 23 June 1999 Accepted: 16 August 1999 Three main types of calcium oxalate crystal occur in monocotyledons: raphides, styloids and druses, although intermediates are sometimes recorded. The presence or absence of the different crystal types may represent ‘useful’ taxonomic characters. For instance, styloids are characteristic of some families of Asparagales, notably Iridaceae, where raphides are entirely absent. The presence of styloids is therefore a synapomorphy for some families (e.g. Iridaceae) or groups of families (e.g. Philydraceae, Pontederiaceae and Haemodoraceae). This paper reviews and presents new data on the occurrence of these crystal types, with respect to current systematic investigations on the monocotyledons. # 1999 Annals of Botany Company Key words: Calcium oxalate, crystals, raphides, styloids, druses, monocotyledons, systematics, development. 1980b).
