10. HUŢANU Mariana CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE FLORISTIC RESEARCH IN SOME SYNANTHROPIC MEADOWS ECOSYSTEMS OF THE MOLDAVIAN PLAIN CERCETĂRI FLORISTICE ÎN UNELE ECOSISTEME PRATICOLE ANTROPIZATE DIN CÂMPIA MOLDOVEI HUŢANU Mariana University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Iasi, Romania Abstract. In the recent years we made some comparative studies about the biodiversity preservation in some synanthropic meadows of the Moldavian Plain. The investigations and observations on site were developed in 6 illustrative biotopes from Botoşani and Iaşi county. From all the species of cormophytes from the studied forest-steppe meadows, 46 are sporadical or rare, and 11 there are in the red lists of the vascular plants of Romania. Key words: phytodiversity, the Moldavian Plain (Romania). Rezumat. În ultimii ani s-au efectuat unele studii comparative privind conservarea biodiversităţii în unele pajisti antropizate din Câmpia Moldovei. Cercetările şi observaţiile efectuate în teren s-au derulat în 6 staţiuni ecologice reprezentative din judeţele Iaşi şi Botoşani. Din totalul speciilor de cormofite identificate în pajiştile de silvostepă studiate, 46 sunt sporadice sau rare, iar 11 specii se găsesc în listele roşii ale plantelor vasculare din România. Cuvinte cheie: fitodiversitate, Câmpia Moldovei (România). INTRODUCTION Within a research contract, we performed a series of studies on the synantropic meadows of the Moldavian Plain. The studies and the observations on site were made in the next ecological stations, that will be numbered as follows: 1 - Sărata-Româneşti (the Botoşani county), 2 – Deleni, 3 - Vulturi-Popricani, 4 – Horleşti, 5 - Valea lui David, 6 - Uricani-Leţcani (the Radio Station), all from the Iaşi county. C. Burduja and collab. have published in 1976 year some aspects of the vegetation from Vulturi-Popricani (Iaşi). Other contributions on the flora and vegetation of the hayfield near Vulturi were published by Mariana Huţanu in 2004 year. The Rezervation Valea lui David near Iaşi was studied by C. Burduja in 1959 year and by D. Mititelu and collab., that published a paper about its flora and vegetation in 1969. Another study, about some characteristics of this meadow was published in 1970, by A. Grâneanu and collab. 55 MATERIAL AND METHOD The plant species have been identified and then put into a floristic list. The percentage of bioformes and phytogeographic elements was calculated. Afterwards, the plant species were integrated into vegetal associations according to the Braun- Blanquet method. In the following we will enumerate just the more interesting species of the floristic list. Cormophytes (the scientific names after V. Ciocârlan, 2000). Apiaceae: Pastinaca graveolens Bieb.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS The floristic list includes 192 taxa of cormophytes (183 species and 9 subspecies), that belongs to 136 genus and 40 botanic families (fig. 1). From all species, 46 are sporadical and rare, the other been frequent (V. Ciocârlan, 2000). The families with the most species are: Asteraceae (25 species), Fabaceae (19 species), Brassicaceae (17 species), Lamiaceae (16 species), Poaceae (14 species), Rosaceae (12 species), Boraginaceae (11 species), Apiaceae and Ranunculaceae, with 9 species each of them. Thus, 9 plants families totalize 132 species, that represents 72.5% from all of them. 11 species are find in the red lists of the vascular plants from Romania (M. Oltean, G. Negrean and collab., 1994; I. Sârbu & T. Chifu, 2003): Amygdalus nana (R), Crambe tatarica (R), Hierochloë repens (R), Iris brandzae (R), Lathyrus pannonicus (R), Mercurialis ovata (R), Plantago schwarzenbergiana (R), Rumex tuberosus (R), Silaum silaus (R), Sisymbrium polymorphum (R), Stemmacantha serratuloides (V). 56 102 90 90 70 46 40 Sarata-Romanesti Deleni Vulturi Horlesti Valea lui David Uricani-Letcani Fig. 1 – The number of the cormophytes species From the life formes, there prevail the hemicryptophytes, the therophytes and the hemitherophytes, beside a low percent of geophytes and phanerophytes (fig. 2). 2% 7% 5% 17% 55% 14% H. Ht. T. G. Ph. Ch. Fig. 2 – The percentage of the life formes (%). 57 We find that in some meadows (for example, Vulturi, Horleşti) there are some forest plants, that also find protection under bushes, which proves that such meadows remained after forest retreat, even in recent times. From the phytogeographic elements, there prevail the Eurasian and European species. The cosmopolites and adventive species are in low number, that means the anthrop pressure is low enough. Nevertheless, there are some ruderal and field-weeds species too, but they do not have a considerable influence over the general flora composition. These forest-steppe meadows have a various number of plant species, but surfaces they occupy are reduced more and more under the assault of man. A specific note is given by the Pontic, Pontic-Mediterranean and Pontic-Panonic species, into a significant percent, also some Pontic-Panonic-Balkan species (fig. 3). This mixture is very interesting, proving a varies provenance of the cormophyte species of these ecosystems, that, although looking alike, group together very diverse plants, which also means various environment conditions. A high diversity also means a high stability of these types of ecosystems, as they are very well defined phytocenotically. The vegetation. In our sites, the main vegetal groups identified belong to 8 vegetal associations and a subassociation, integrated into the following coenosystem: Festuco-Brometea Br.-Bl. et R.

The coast hayfields are generally well maintained,only sporadically we find patches of halophyte vegetation or some ruderal plants. The vegetation coverage is generally maximal and there is a significant number of fodder plants, which jeans higher productivity. It is not to be neglected their attractive aspect in the landscape, mostly for the vernal and summery flowers. At Uricani (the Radio Station), there are at least two different species, that need protection: Stemmacantha serratuloides (vulnerable) and Plantago schwarzenbergiana (rare), both species prevailingly halophyle, which participate in the building of typical associations of wet and salty areas.

    Hop and Medicinal Plants, Year XXIV, No. 1-2, 2016 ISSN 2360 – 0179 print, ISSN 2360 – 0187 electronic NEW PERSPECTIVES ON MEDICINAL PROPERTIES AND USES OF IRIS SP. CRIŞAN Ioana, Maria CANTOR* Faculty of Horticulture, University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, Manastur Street 3-5, 400372 Cluj-Napoca, Romania *corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract. Rhizomes from various Iris species have been used in traditional medicine to treat a variety of ailments since ancient times and many constituents isolated from different Iris species demonstrated potent biological activities in recent studies. All research findings besides the increasing demand for natural ingredients in cosmetics and market demand from industries like alcoholic beverages, cuisine and perfumery indicate a promising future for cultivation of irises for rhizomes, various extracts but most importantly for high quality orris butter. Romania is situated in a transitional continental climate with suitable conditions for hardy iris species and thus with good prospects for successful cultivation of Iris germanica, Iris florentina and Iris pallida in conditions of economic efficiency. Key words: Iris, medicinal plant, orris butter, rhizomes Introduction The common word “iris” that gave the name of the genus, originates from Greek designating “rainbow” presumably due to the wide variety of colors that these flowers can have (Cumo, 2013). The genus reunites about 300 species (Wang et al., 2010) with rhizomes or bulbs (Cantor, 2016). In Romanian wild flora can be met both naturalized and native species, some enjoying special protection, like Iris aphylla ssp. hungarica (Marinescu and Alexiu, 2013) that can be seen on the hills nearby Cluj-Napoca (Fig.

Vasile Pârvan, nr. 4, Timişoara, Romania * Author for correspondence (e-mail: [email protected]) Abstract: This paper inquires into the questions related to endangered habitats and species, as well as that of factors threatening biodiversity, in Romania, by analysing existing opinions of biodiversity institutional stakeholders. The research applies a combination of qualitative social science (participatory) approaches and quantitative tools as a means for understanding biodiversity related issues in Romania. Heterogeneity of opinions of biodiversity institutional stakeholders, concerning endangered biodiversity and its threats, are analysed. Stakeholders' perspectives are identified through characterization of opinion groups and discursive analysis. Key factors influencing the attitudinal diversity are examined. Research outputs reveal the diversity of existing stakeholders’ views.

  • Fritillaria Meleagroides in Romania
    Acta Horti Bot. Bucurest. 2015, 42: 41-55 DOI: 10.1515/ahbb-2015-0005 FRITILLARIA MELEAGROIDES IN ROMANIA OPREA Adrian1, SÎRBU Culiţă2*, PEREGRYM Mykyta3 Abstract: The presence in the spontaneous flora of Romania of the species Fritillaria meleagroides is reported in this paper. It was identified in the North of the village Cotu Morii (Popricani Commune, Iaşi County), on (meso-) hygrophilous, slightly halophilous meadows, placed on the both sides of an old meander of the Jijia river. This place is at the western limit of natural area of F. meleagroides, which stretches from the Central Asia to the Eastern Europe (European Russia, Ukraine and Bulgaria). Since F. meleagroides is an endangered species in large part of its natural range, we consider that urgent actions to protect its populations from Romania are necessary. Keywords: botanical description, identification key, marginal populations, new records, vascular flora Received 26 November 2015 Accepted 05 December 2015 Introduction The vascular flora of Romania has been studied of approx. two centuries by numerous botanists. However, the research of the flora still can give us nice surprises and new recordings of species, both indigenous and adventive, have been done in the last decades, increasing the inventory of the vascular flora of Romania (Oprea 2005, Ciocârlan 2009, Sârbu et al. 2013). One of the genera from the vascular flora of Romania is Fritillaria L. (Liliaceae) (Zahariadi 1966, Ciocârlan 2009, Sârbu et al. 2013). This genus comprises between 100 and 160 species (depending on the points of view of different authors), occurring in most temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere (Zahariadi 1966, Rønsted et al.

    ADUMITRESEI LIDIA J. Plant Develop. 19(2012): 165-170 ROCKERY AREA FROM BIOLOGICAL SECTION OF “ANASTASIE FĂTU” BOTANICAL GARDEN ADUMITRESEI LIDIA1 Abstract: Rockery theme area from Biological Section groups a large variety of plants which are originating from different parts of the world and with different environmental requirements. There are presented both species with significant result during last years and those species which were not accustomed to physical and geographical conditions. Keywords: casmophyte, rockery, Biological Section Introduction Rockery is one of the most attractive area both for public and teaching interests of Botanical Garden because it representing a space used for “ex situ” preservation. Rockery from Biological Section has the main theme to illustrate some aspects of plants evolution which is an important subject because of scientific and aesthetic reasons. Materials and methods In according to the original theme (established during the '70s), we keep the collections that were well acclimatized to the local environment conditions of this place. During the last years, our concerns were focused on the improvement of plant funds both from quantitatively and especially qualitatively point of view. The fossiliferous calcareous grit stones from Middle Sarmatian Age, from Repedea (Iaşi County) are populated with plants which illustrating aspects of the flower evolution from actinomorphic to zygomorphic symmetry plan or from dialipetalous to gamopetalous flowers. In the group of rockeries, located near by the garden axis consists of sedimentary rocks from the quarry Mold (Câmpulung Moldovenesc – Suceava County), are presented few evidences of morphological evolution for some plants (roots, stems and metamorphosed leaves, progressive and regressive metamorphoses of flowers) and typical plant species for rockery areas (Plate I – a, b, c).
