Recent findings based on molecular methods led to revision of its volume. However, most of these studies lacked species from Eurasia, where a lot of previous taxonomic treatments of the subtribe exist. In this study we used molecular phylogenetics methods with internal transcribed spacer (ITS) as a marker to resolve evolutionary relations between representatives of the subtribe Asterinae from Siberia, Kazakhstan, and the European part of Russia. Our reconstruction revealed that a clade including all Asterinae species is paraphyletic. Inside this clade, there are species with unresolved basal positions, for example Erigeron flaccidus and its relatives. Moreover, several well-supported groups exist: group of the genera Galatella, Crinitaria, Linosyris, and Tripolium; group of species of North American origin; and three related groups of Eurasian species: typical Eurasian asters, Heteropappus group (genera Heteropappus, Kalimeris), and Asterothamnus group (genera Asterothamnus, Rhinactinidia).

Yongyangbo wetlands have been designated as protected areas. A field survey was conducted across five sessions between April 2019 and August of 2019. A total of 248 taxa were identified during the survey, including 72 families, 163 genera, 230 species, 4 subspecies, and 14 varieties. Their life-forms were Th (therophytes) - R5 (non-clonal form) - D4 (clitochores) - e (erect form), with a disturbance index of 33.8%. Three taxa of rare plants were detected: Silene capitata Kom. and Polygonatum stenophyllum Maxim. known to be endangered species, and Aristolochia contorta Bunge, a least-concern species. S. capitata is a legally protected species designated as a Class II endangered species in South Korea. A total of 26 taxa of naturalized plants were observed, with a naturalization index of 10.5%. There was one endemic plant taxon (Salix koriyanagi Kimura ex Goerz). In terms of floristic target species, there was one taxon in class V, one taxon in Class IV, three taxa in Class III, five taxa in Class II, and seven taxa in Class I.

Vernon, MO 65712 Sam Gibson Department of Biology (retired) Missouri Southern State University, Joplin, MO 64801 Nels J. Holmberg 530 W Whiskey Creek Rd, Washington, MO 63090 Woods Prairie is a scenic and rare refuge of unplowed native tallgrass prairie on the northwestern fringe of the Ozarks bioregion in southwestern Missouri. This isolated 40-acre prairie remnant near the town of Mt. Vernon was part of a 1,700-acre homestead settled in 1836 by John Blackburn Woods of Tennessee. For four generations, the Woods family carefully managed the prairie while protecting it from the plow as all other nearby prairies were destroyed. By 1999, less than 40 acres of the original vast prairie remained, and John’s great granddaughter, Mary Freda (Woods) O’Connell, sold it to the Ozark Regional Land Trust (ORLT, Carthage, MO), to be protected in perpetuity as a nature reserve for public study and enjoyment. ORLT, a non-profit conservation organization founded in 1984 to protect the unique natural features of the Ozarks, completed the purchase on May 27, 1999 through a unique, complex scheme detailed in Thomas and Galbraith (2003).

  • How Faster to Master the Aster Disaster: a Primer on the Changing Nomenclature of Missouri Asters
    26 Missouriensis, Volume 25 2004 [2005] HOW FASTER TO MASTER THE ASTER DISASTER: A PRIMER ON THE CHANGING NOMENCLATURE OF MISSOURI ASTERS George Yatskievych Flora of Missouri Project Modern plant systematists are botanical genealogists. Their work is often expressed as cladistic phylogenies (cladograms), which are branched diagrams that detail the relationships among taxonomic groups as lineages derived from hypothetical ancesters. The concept of a “natural” taxonomic group has come to mean a hypothesis that two or more taxa have a direct shared common ancestry. The tools used to develop these phylogenies are broad and often involve some combination of data from morphological, anatomical, cytological, phytochemical, and molecular studies. Phylogenetic systematists tend to operate under a set of basic assumptions that may not be intuitive to those outside the field. The technical term for a phylogenetically “natural group” is “mono- phyletic,” which means that a given lineage is discrete and ultimately can be traced back to a single originating branchpoint. A taxonomic group (such as a genus) that can be shown to have been derived directly as a specialized portion within some other lineage renders that lineage “paraphyletic” and should be reclassified as a subgroup of that lineage (or the whole thing should be split up into a series of discrete monophyletic groups). Taxonomic groups that include members of two or more distantly related lineages are categorized as “polyphyletic” and are not tolerated. In large taxonomic groups, like the Asteraceae, the basic units (tribes, genera, and species) may be more or less recognizable morph- ologically based upon one or several unusual features.

  • A Comparative Analysis of the Complete Chloroplast Genomes of Three Chrysanthemum Boreale Strains
    A comparative analysis of the complete chloroplast genomes of three Chrysanthemum boreale strains Swati Tyagi1, Jae-A Jung2, Jung Sun Kim1 and So Youn Won1 1 Genomics Division, National Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Rural Development Administration, Jeonju, Republic of Korea 2 Floriculture Research Division, National Institute of Horticultural and Herbal Science, Rural Development Administration, Wanju, Republic of Korea ABSTRACT Background: Chrysanthemum boreale Makino (Anthemideae, Asteraceae) is a plant of economic, ornamental and medicinal importance. We characterized and compared the chloroplast genomes of three C. boreale strains. These were collected from different geographic regions of Korea and varied in floral morphology. Methods: The chloroplast genomes were obtained by next-generation sequencing techniques, assembled de novo, annotated, and compared with one another. Phylogenetic analysis placed them within the Anthemideae tribe. Results: The sizes of the complete chloroplast genomes of the C. boreale strains were 151,012 bp (strain 121002), 151,098 bp (strain IT232531) and 151,010 bp (strain IT301358). Each genome contained 80 unique protein-coding genes, 4 rRNA genes and 29 tRNA genes. Comparative analyses revealed a high degree of conservation in the overall sequence, gene content, gene order and GC content among the strains. We identified 298 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 106 insertions/ deletions (indels) in the chloroplast genomes. These variations were more abundant in non-coding regions than in coding regions. Long dispersed repeats and simple sequence repeats were present in both coding and noncoding regions, with greater frequency in the latter. Regardless of their location, these repeats can be used for molecular marker development. Phylogenetic analysis revealed the evolutionary Submitted 13 March 2020 relationship of the species in the Anthemideae tribe.
