Presentation The National Pantanal Research Institute (INPP) was created by Law Nº. 12,954, of February 5, 2014 and aims to integrate and articulate actions in the Pantanal region, promote new initiatives and provide the development of models and databases To integrate the transfer of knowledge generated in the region. It is based in the Campus of the University of Mato Grosso, in Cuiabá, because it is not yet fully regulated, it functions as an Advanced Campus of the Museu Paraense Emilio Goeldi, Research Unit directly to the Ministry of Science, Technology, Innovation and Communications. The Amazon and Pantanal have similar biotic and abiotic characteristics in several aspects such as biodiversity, land use pressure, water scarcity and urban explosion. The gathering of articles from researchers from both regions working on a theme as important as the conservation and sustainable use of resources in wetlands will provide new academic and scientific knowledge on the Amazon and the Pantanal. The Natural Resources Book in Wetlands: From Pantanal to Amazonia edited by the Museu Paraense Emilio Goeldi / National Pantanal Research Institute aims to promote the publication, dissemination and socialization in the national and international scope of the intellectual production on Biodiversity, Biotechnology and Innovation that deals exclusively with the Pantanal Biome and Amazon Biome through information on the biological diversity of populations and communities of animals, plants and microorganisms and their ecological patterns and processes; Development of technologies, patents and innovations, as well as biotechnological products and processes based on biodiversity. It contemplated researches carried out by teachers and Students of the Doctoral Program in Biodiversity and Biotechnology in Network/Regional North/Pará; Doctors and Students of the Doctoral Program in Network/Regional Center West (MT, MS, GO and DF) and Researchers of the National Institute of Science and Technology in Wetlands (INAU).

E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Studies evaluating the internal morphology and seed quality of native species are essential for successful conservation programs. Our aim was to verify the efficiency of X-ray imagery in evaluating cashew-tree-of-the-cerrado (Anacardium othonianum Rizz.) achene viability after desiccation. The achenes were collected at 12% water content (w.b.) and dried in silica gel until they reached 10, 8, 6, and 4% (w.b.). The fruit morphology and the quality of the seeds were evaluated by X-ray test together with vigor, electrical conductivity and emergence tests. Achenes with different water contents were exposed to an X- ray machine at 18 kV for 11 s and were thereafter submitted to emergence tests. The images were analyzed, and the achenes were classified based on internal morphology as completely full, malformed, or empty. These results were compared to those from the emergence tests.

Samson, [email protected] Abstract: The taxonomy of Aspergillus section Fumigati with its teleomorph genus Neosartorya is revised. The species concept is based on phenotypic (morphology and extrolite profiles) and molecular (β-tubulin and calmodulin gene sequences) characters in a polyphasic approach. Four new taxa are proposed: N. australensis N. ferenczii, N. papuaensis and N. warcupii. All newly described and accepted species are illustrated. The section consists of 33 taxa: 10 strictly anamorphic Aspergillus species and 23 Neosartorya species. Four other Neosartorya species described previously were not available for this monograph, and consequently are relegated to the category of doubtful species. Taxonomic novelties: Neosartorya australensis, N. ferenczii, N. papuaensis, N. warcupii. Key words: Aspergillus section Fumigati, extrolite profiles, Neosartorya, phylogenetics, polyphasic taxonomy.

Producido por: Edward Jimmy Alarcón Mozombite © Edward Jimmy Alarcón Mozombite [[email protected]] [fieldguides.fieldmuseum.org] [1083] versión 1 10/2018 Introducción La familia Annonaceae está muy bien representada en el Perú, especialmente en la Amazonía peruana, con especies silvestres y cultivadas. En el Perú existen alrededor de 238 especies de Annonaceae (Vásquez & Rojas, 2016), de las cuales 217 especies más 1 variedad son considerados árboles hasta el momento (Vásquez et al., 2018), pero este número irá ascendiendo por el descubrimiento de nuevas especies. Esta familia es ampliamente aprovechada por sus frutos, corteza, fuste y fácilmente reconocida por los “materos” y población que tiene cercanía a los bosques. Una forma de estudiar a esta familia es a través de la revisión de muestras depositadas en Herbarios, donde se registra datos de fenología, distribución, hábitat, usos y nombres vernaculares. Los frutos y semillas son estructuras que presentan ventajas que, al encontrarse secas, se hacen evidentes los surcos, formas, matices, fibras y porosidades que les permite diferenciarse entre especies. El presente trabajo aborda 91 especies, 2 variedades y 2 especímenes identificados a nivel de género para el Perú y 1 especie de Brasil, que equivale a casi el 40% de las especies de Annonaceas en el Perú, es una guía de reconocimiento por medio de las descripciones y fotografías que hacen más fácil su uso para el público en general y profesionales dedicados a la botánica, ciencias forestales, silvicultura, así como para la enseñanza e identificación en campo.

Academic Editor: Marcello Iriti Received: 13 August 2015 / Accepted: 25 September 2015 / Published: 9 October 2015 Abstract: Myrcia is one of the largest genera of the economically important family Myrtaceae. Some of the species are used in folk medicine, such as a group known as “pedra-hume-caá” or “pedra-ume-caá” or “insulina vegetal” (insulin plant) that it is used for the treatment of diabetes. The species are an important source of essential oils, and most of the chemical studies on Myrcia describe the chemical composition of the essential oils, in which mono- and sesquiterpenes are predominant. The non-volatile compounds isolated from Myrcia are usually flavonoids, tannins, acetophenone derivatives and triterpenes. Anti-inflammatory, antinociceptive, antioxidant, antimicrobial activities have been described to Myrcia essential oils, while hypoglycemic, anti-hemorrhagic and antioxidant activities were attributed to the extracts.

Most of the fungi sequenced were intertidal mangrove taxa and belong to members of 12 families in the Pleosporales: Aigialaceae, Didymellaceae, Leptosphaeriaceae, Lenthitheciaceae, Lophiostomataceae, Massarinaceae, Montagnulaceae, Morosphaeriaceae, Phaeosphaeriaceae, Pleosporaceae, Testudinaceae and Trematosphaeriaceae. Two new families are described: Aigialaceae and Morosphaeriaceae, and three new genera proposed: Halomassarina, Morosphaeria and Rimora.

    Evolutionary Consequences of Dioecy in Angiosperms: the Effects of Breeding System on Speciation and Extinction Rates

    EVOLUTIONARY CONSEQUENCES OF DIOECY IN ANGIOSPERMS: THE EFFECTS OF BREEDING SYSTEM ON SPECIATION AND EXTINCTION RATES by JANA C. HEILBUTH B.Sc, Simon Fraser University, 1996 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Department of Zoology) We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA July 2001 © Jana Heilbuth, 2001 Wednesday, April 25, 2001 UBC Special Collections - Thesis Authorisation Form Page: 1 In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and study.

The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada http://www.library.ubc.ca/spcoll/thesauth.html ABSTRACT Dioecy, the breeding system with male and female function on separate individuals, may affect the ability of a lineage to avoid extinction or speciate. Dioecy is a rare breeding system among the angiosperms (approximately 6% of all flowering plants) while hermaphroditism (having male and female function present within each flower) is predominant. Dioecious angiosperms may be rare because the transitions to dioecy have been recent or because dioecious angiosperms experience decreased diversification rates (speciation minus extinction) compared to plants with other breeding systems.
