Lizeth Swart Thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Agriculture at the University of Stellenbosch Supervisor: Prof. P. W. Crous Decem ber 1999 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za DECLARATION 1, the undersigned, hereby declare that the work contained in this thesis is my own original work and has not previously in its entirety or in part been submitted at any university for a degree. SIGNATURE: DATE: Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za PATHOGENS ASSOCIATED WITH DISEASES OF PROTEA, LEUCOSPERMUM ANDLEUCADENDRONSPP. SUMMARY The manuscript consists of six chapters that represent research on different diseases and records of new diseases of the Proteaceae world-wide. The fungal descriptions presented in this thesis are not effectively published, and will thus be formally published elsewhere in scientific journals. Chapter one is a review that gives a detailed description of the major fungal pathogens of the genera Protea, Leucospermum and Leucadendron, as reported up to 1996. The pathogens are grouped according to the diseases they cause on roots, leaves, stems and flowers, as well as the canker causing fungi. In chapter two, several new fungi occurring on leaves of Pro tea, Leucospermum, Telopea and Brabejum collected from South Africa, Australia or New Zealand are described. The following fungi are described: Cladophialophora proteae, Coniolhyrium nitidae, Coniothyrium proteae, Coniolhyrium leucospermi,Harknessia leucospermi, Septoria prolearum and Mycosphaerella telopeae spp. nov. Furthermore, two Phylloslicla spp., telopeae and owaniana are also redecribed. The taxonomy of the Eisinoe spp. -

University of Cape Town Abstract Rhodocoma gigantea and Rhodocoma foliosus have been recognised by earlier authors as separate species on the basis of perianth length and shape. Linder (1985) .s perficially lumped these two species under Rhodocoma gigantea arguing that the difference between the two appear to be brought by ecological gradient. Numerical phenetic analyses of 19 quantitative floral morphological characters investigated from 33 herbarium specimens reveal that Rhodocoma gigantea complex consists of two groups. One group correspon(Jo Rhodocoma gigantea, having longer and wider spikelets, perianth segments and bracts, while the other correspond to Rhodocoma foliosus having shorter and thinner female spikelets, bracts and perianth segments than the former. Minimum spanning tree also reveal the two groups are geographically isolated. The former group occur in the western part of the south coast along the Langeberg in Swellendam and Riversdale districts and the latter is widely distributed on the Outeniekwaberg, Tsitsikama mountains to Zuurberg with outliers reaching as far as Uitenhage. 8ritz river appears to be the geographical barrier between these two species. -

ran Forestry Department Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations GLOBAL FOREST RESOURCES ASSESSMENT COUNTRY REPORTS OUTH FRICA S A FRA2005/004 Rome, 2005 FRA 2005 – Country Report 004 SOUTH AFRICA The Forest Resources Assessment Programme Sustainably managed forests have multiple environmental and socio-economic functions important at the global, national and local scales, and play a vital part in sustainable development. Reliable and up- to-date information on the state of forest resources - not only on area and area change, but also on such variables as growing stock, wood and non-wood products, carbon, protected areas, use of forests for recreation and other services, biological diversity and forests’ contribution to national economies - is crucial to support decision-making for policies and programmes in forestry and sustainable development at all levels. FAO, at the request of its member countries, regularly monitors the world’s forests and their management and uses through the Forest Resources Assessment Programme. This country report forms part of the Global Forest Resources Assessment 2005 (FRA 2005), which is the most comprehensive assessment to date. More than 800 people have been involved, including 172 national correspondents and their colleagues, an Advisory Group, international experts, FAO staff, consultants and volunteers. Information has been collated from 229 countries and territories for three points in time: 1990, 2000 and 2005. The reporting framework for FRA 2005 is based on the thematic elements of sustainable forest management acknowledged in intergovernmental forest-related fora and includes more than 40 variables related to the extent, condition, uses and values of forest resources. -

A phylogeny for the African Restionaceae and new perspectives on morphology's role in generating complete species phylogenies for large clades Abstract Difficulties with obtaining complete species-level phylogenies include (1) the accurate identification and sampling of species, (2) obtaining a complete species sampling, and (3) resolving relationships among closely related species.We addressed these in a study of 317 species and subspecies of the African Restionaceae. -
