  • Contributions to the Solution of Phylogenetic Problem in Fabales
    Research Article Bartın University International Journal of Natural and Applied Sciences Araştırma Makalesi JONAS, 2(2): 195-206 e-ISSN: 2667-5048 31 Aralık/December, 2019 CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE SOLUTION OF PHYLOGENETIC PROBLEM IN FABALES Deniz Aygören Uluer1*, Rahma Alshamrani 2 1 Ahi Evran University, Cicekdagi Vocational College, Department of Plant and Animal Production, 40700 Cicekdagi, KIRŞEHIR 2 King Abdulaziz University, Department of Biological Sciences, 21589, JEDDAH Abstract Fabales is a cosmopolitan angiosperm order which consists of four families, Leguminosae (Fabaceae), Polygalaceae, Surianaceae and Quillajaceae. The monophyly of the order is supported strongly by several studies, although interfamilial relationships are still poorly resolved and vary between studies; a situation common in higher level phylogenetic studies of ancient, rapid radiations. In this study, we carried out simulation analyses with previously published matK and rbcL regions. The results of our simulation analyses have shown that Fabales phylogeny can be solved and the 5,000 bp fast-evolving data type may be sufficient to resolve the Fabales phylogeny question. In our simulation analyses, while support increased as the sequence length did (up until a certain point), resolution showed mixed results. Interestingly, the accuracy of the phylogenetic trees did not improve with the increase in sequence length. Therefore, this study sounds a note of caution, with respect to interpreting the results of the “more data” approach, because the results have shown that large datasets can easily support an arbitrary root of Fabales. Keywords: Data type, Fabales, phylogeny, sequence length, simulation. 1. Introduction Fabales Bromhead is a cosmopolitan angiosperm order which consists of four families, Leguminosae (Fabaceae) Juss., Polygalaceae Hoffmanns.

By Arno King ften we concentrate on growing perfect, robust and healthy plants. Sometimes we focus our horticultural skills on those diffi cult or very rare plants. OOften we are just grateful that anything grows in a diffi cult spot, be it dry shade, shallow soils over rock or windy locations near the sea. However, it is the way each plant works with its neighbour and how they contribute together to create a stunning picture, viewed from many directions and in a sequence, that makes a truly memorable garden.

Present investigation was undertaken to obtain information on the phenology, pollination and breeding system of A. nobilis growing in Thiruvananthapuram district. It flowers between November-April with maximum flowering during February and March. The flowers were large, bisexual, odourless, crimson red and arranged in long pendulous racemes. The flowers were highly protandrous as anthers dehisced in buds much prior to stigma receptivity. The anthers were versatile and produced large quanity of pollen/flower (86759±447.77) showing only 29±5% viability by FDA test and 35% in vitro germination in B&K medium,while only 25% germinate on stigmatic surface. Anthers are bithecous, versatile and dehisce longitudinally. Maximum fruit (24.1 plant) and seed-set was recorded in open pollinated plants. There were 4±1 ovules/flower and the pollen-ovule ratio was 21689.75:1. Production of large number of pollen by versatile anthers and high pollen-ovule ratio indicate anemophilous nature of A.

  • Effect of Silver Nanoparticles Synthesized Using Aqueous Leaf Extract of Amherstia Nobilis on Marine Biofilms
    Plant Archives Vol. 18 No. 1, 2018 pp. 251-256 ISSN 0972-5210 EFFECT OF SILVER NANOPARTICLES SYNTHESIZED USING AQUEOUS LEAF EXTRACT OF AMHERSTIA NOBILIS ON MARINE BIOFILMS Meenakshi K., Pracheta Salunkhe and Indu A.G.* *Department of Life Sciences, University of Mumbai, Kalina Campus, Vidyanagari, Santacruz (E), Mumbai (Maharashtra) India Abstract The present study emphasized the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (SNP) from silver nitrate through bioreduction method using Amherstia nobilis leaf extract and evaluation of anti-marine biofilm activity of the synthesized particles. The phytosynthesis of silver nanoparticles was demonstrated firstly by visual observation and then by spectral methods : UV- Visible absorption spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Dynamic Light Scattering technique (DLS). The Energy dispersive X-ray spectrum of the colloidal solution confirmed the presence of an elemental silver signal. Transmission Electron Microscopy analysis revealed that the nanoparticles were mostly spherical in shape and the particle size ranges from 3.74nm to 40.43nm. The stability of the silver nanoparticles was checked by ξ-potential measurements. It is found that silver nanoparticles synthesized by aqueous leaf extract of A. nobilis were effective against biofilm formation of microbes such as marine B. subtilis and marine E. coli. Key words: SNP, A. nobilis, Green synthesis, marine biofilm, E. coli, B. subtilis the synthesis of nanoparticles. The living plants are Introduction considerably preferred for biosynthesis of silver Silver nanoparticles (SNPs) have attracted intensive nanoparticles due to their rich diversity of phytochemicals research interest because of their important applications that have strong antioxidant properties.
