  • Ecophysiology of Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM)
    Annals of Botany 93: 629±652, 2004 doi:10.1093/aob/mch087, available online at www.aob.oupjournals.org INVITED REVIEW Ecophysiology of Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM) ULRICH LUÈ TTGE* Institute of Botany, Technical University of Darmstadt, Schnittspahnstrasse 3±5, D-64287 Darmstadt, Germany Received: 3 October 2003 Returned for revision: 17 December 2003 Accepted: 20 January 2004 d Background and Scope Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM) as an ecophysiological modi®cation of photo- synthetic carbon acquisition has been reviewed extensively before. Cell biology, enzymology and the ¯ow of carbon along various pathways and through various cellular compartments have been well documented and dis- cussed. The present attempt at reviewing CAM once again tries to use a different approach, considering a wide range of inputs, receivers and outputs. d Input Input is given by a network of environmental parameters. Six major ones, CO2,H2O, light, temperature, nutrients and salinity, are considered in detail, which allows discussion of the effects of these factors, and combinations thereof, at the individual plant level (`physiological aut-ecology'). d Receivers Receivers of the environmental cues are the plant types genotypes and phenotypes, the latter includ- ing morphotypes and physiotypes. CAM genotypes largely remain `black boxes', and research endeavours of genomics, producing mutants and following molecular phylogeny, are just beginning. There is no special development of CAM morphotypes except for a strong tendency for leaf or stem succulence with large cells with big vacuoles and often, but not always, special water storage tissues. Various CAM physiotypes with differing degrees of CAM expression are well characterized. d Output Output is the shaping of habitats, ecosystems and communities by CAM.

Summary LETZ R. & MARHOLD K. 1998: Multivariate morphometric study of the Semper- vivum montanum group in the West Carpathians. - Phyton (Horn, Austria) 38 (2): 323-336, 8 figures. - English with German summary. Multivariate morphometric study of the Sempervivum montanum group based on material from the West Carpathians is presented. Methods used include principal components analysis, cluster analysis and discriminant analysis. The study con- firmed the possibility to recognise two taxa on the subspecific level in the area studied. The correct names of these taxa, both different from S. montanum L. s. str., depend on the acceptance of the proposal to reject the name S. carpathicum WETTST. ex PRODAN. Therefore we treat them at present under informal designations, as "lowland" and "upland" taxon. The proposed subspecies differ in respect of the size of rosettes and rosette leaves and the colour of leaves.

  • Blooming Succulents? by Deborah Hager UCCE Master Gardener of El Dorado County
    August, 16, 2017 Blooming Succulents? By Deborah Hager UCCE Master Gardener of El Dorado County Succulents are blooming in my garden. However, this succulent species has never flowered in the past and now seven plants are all blooming at the same time. The succulents are all species of sempervivum, more commonly known as hens and chicks or houseleeks. Sempervivums are not known for their flowers. Summer is here and it is very startling to see a familiar garden plant begin to grow in an unfamiliar way. The center of the plant, which is a rosette, pushes up and up as it turns into a flower stalk. The leaves on the end of the stalk peel back to reveal a cluster of buds that bloom into small star shaped flowers. The flower stalk may grow an inch or more than a foot. Blooms are typically pink, but can be red, pale yellow or white. Sempervivum is a genus of hardy, monocarpic alpine succulents that survive in cold, harsh environments - perfect for El Dorado County. Monocarpic means each rosette can only ever flower once and then dies. Semper is Latin for always and vivum means alive. Why would the name of a plant that dies after flowering once mean always alive or live- forever? Sometimes, sempervivum will grow for four years or more without flowering. During those years of growing, the plant continues to produce offsets or “chicks.” Once a plant does bloom and die, it has usually produced many, many offsets to replace it, giving the appearance that it lives forever.
