  • The Developmental and Genetic Bases of Apetaly in Bocconia Frutescens
    Arango‑Ocampo et al. EvoDevo (2016) 7:16 DOI 10.1186/s13227-016-0054-6 EvoDevo RESEARCH Open Access The developmental and genetic bases of apetaly in Bocconia frutescens (Chelidonieae: Papaveraceae) Cristina Arango‑Ocampo1, Favio González2, Juan Fernando Alzate3 and Natalia Pabón‑Mora1* Abstract Background: Bocconia and Macleaya are the only genera of the poppy family (Papaveraceae) lacking petals; how‑ ever, the developmental and genetic processes underlying such evolutionary shift have not yet been studied. Results: We studied floral development in two species of petal-less poppies Bocconia frutescens and Macleaya cordata as well as in the closely related petal-bearing Stylophorum diphyllum. We generated a floral transcriptome of B. frutescens to identify MADS-box ABCE floral organ identity genes expressed during early floral development. We performed phylogenetic analyses of these genes across Ranunculales as well as RT-PCR and qRT-PCR to assess loci- specific expression patterns. We found that petal-to-stamen homeosis in petal-less poppies occurs through distinct developmental pathways. Transcriptomic analyses of B. frutescens floral buds showed that homologs of all MADS-box genes are expressed except for the APETALA3-3 ortholog. Species-specific duplications of other ABCE genes inB. frute- scens have resulted in functional copies with expanded expression patterns than those predicted by the model. Conclusions: Petal loss in B. frutescens is likely associated with the lack of expression of AP3-3 and an expanded expression of AGAMOUS. The genetic basis of petal identity is conserved in Ranunculaceae and Papaveraceae although they have different number of AP3 paralogs and exhibit dissimilar floral groundplans.

  • Museum Futures, Creating Entry Level Press Images: Routes Into the Sector
    Press release Final group of museums announced for Museum Futures, creating entry level Press images: https://bit.ly/3fbPxvY routes into the sector A British Museum initiative to invest in a diverse generation of museum professionals has announced the third and final cohort of partner museums for 2021 across the UK. Museum Futures, a three-year programme supported by The National Lottery Heritage Fund and managed by the British Museum, gives 18–24-year olds from a range of backgrounds the opportunity to receive year-long paid training. This training enables applicants without degrees or prior museum experience to pursue a career in the museum and heritage sector that might have otherwise been unattainable. Focusing on digital skills, trainees receive on-the-job training at UK partner museums, and also work towards a Level 3 diploma in Cultural Heritage to boost their learning throughout the year. Trainees further benefit from support of a trained mentor working within the sector, monthly training sessions at the partner museums and experience working on digital skills-based projects related to museum collections. Partner museums participating in Museum Futures 2021 are: Museum of East Anglian Life, South West Heritage Trust, Fitzwilliam Museum: University of Cambridge Museums, National Football Museum, The Atkinson, Museum of Cardiff, Culture Perth and Kinross and the British Museum. Currently in its second year of a three-year programme, Museum Futures will benefit a total of 25 trainees by its end in 2021. Successful projects from 2019 ranged from 3D imaging and projections at York Museums Trust, editing the official podcast at the British Museum to launching a new software to help digitally preserve archives in Somerset.

  • Isolation and Identification of Alkaloids from Macleaya Microcarpa by UHPLC–Q-TOF-MS and Their Cytotoxic Activity in Vitro, An
    Sai et al. BMC Chemistry (2020) 14:5 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13065-020-0660-1 BMC Chemistry RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Isolation and identifcation of alkaloids from Macleaya microcarpa by UHPLC– Q-TOF-MS and their cytotoxic activity in vitro, antiangiogenic activity in vivo Chunmei Sai1,2, Jian’an Wang1, Binjie Li3, Lin Ding1, Huiyun Wang1, Qibao Wang1, Huiming Hua3, Fangpeng Zhang2 and Qiang Ren1* Abstract Background: Extensive bioactivities of alkaloids from the genus Macleaya (Macleaya cordata (Willd.) R. Br. and Macleaya microcarpa (Maxim.) Fedde) have been widely reported, as well as more and more concerned from the sci- entifc communities. However, systematic research on the phytochemical information of M. microcarpa is incomplete. The aim of this study was to rapidly and conveniently qualitative analyze alkaloids from M. microcarpa by ultra-perfor- mance liquid chromatography/quadrupole-time-of-fght mass spectrometry (UHPLC–Q-TOF-MS) using accurate mass weight and characteristic fragment ions, furthermore separate and identify the main alkaloids, test antitumor activity in vitro and antiangiogenic activity in vivo. Results: A total of 14 alkaloids from fruits of M. microcarpa were identifed by UHPLC–Q-TOF-MS, including 5 pro- topines, 2 benzophenanthridines, 1 dimer, 1 dihydrobenzophenanthridines and 5 unknown structure compounds. Two major alkaloids were isolated by various column chromatographic methods. Their structures were determined by NMR data and related literatures. The two major alkaloids were evaluated for intro cytotoxic activities against HL-60, MCF-7, A-549, and in vivo antiangiogenic activity using transgenic zebrafsh. Conclusions: Current qualitative method based on UHPLC–Q-TOF-MS technique provided a scientifc basis for isola- tion, structural identifcation, and in vitro or in vivo pharmacological further study of alkaloids from M.

  • The Garden Museum Education Fund the Garden Museum Is Britain’S Only Museum Dedicated to the Art, History and Design of Gardens
    The Garden Museum Education Fund The Garden Museum is Britain’s only museum dedicated to the art, history and design of gardens. ‘Helping Father’, artist unknown, poster, c.1930 The Museum preserves what we value in gardens; whether it is the secret Edens of childhood and family, or the green public spaces which are so vital to life in the modern city. Situated in the medieval St-Mary-at-Lambeth church, we offer an educational experience unlike any other in the centre of London. The City is rich in history and community but its residents face all the pressures of modern city life; for many children a visit to the Museum is the first time they have seen a worm, or dug their hands in the soil. We need your help to educate and inspire the next generation of gardeners. Redevelopment The Garden Museum reopened in 2017 after an eighteen month redevelopment which saw the building of two new education spaces: the Clore Learning Space and the Learning Studio. These new spaces allow us to work with more schools, families and neighbours than ever before. We need your to help to bring these spaces to life by supporting the activities within them. Members of our local community making sweet treats with fresh ingredients A nutrition and cooking session for families in our new Our Clore Learning Space will be equipped for botanical Learning Studio kitchen science lessons for primary, GCSE and A-level students The Garden Museum is the burial ground of 17th-century plant hunter and Britain’s first gardener, John Tradescant.

  • Classification of Mosquitoes in Tribe Aedini 925
    FORUM Classification of Mosquitoes in Tribe Aedini (Diptera: Culicidae): Paraphylyphobia, and Classification Versus Cladistic Analysis HARRY M. SAVAGE Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, P.O. Box 2087, Fort Collins, CO 80522 J. Med. Entomol. 42(6): 923Ð927 (2005) Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/jme/article/42/6/923/886357 by guest on 29 September 2021 ABSTRACT Many mosquito species are important vectors of human and animal diseases, and others are important nuisance species. To facilitate communication and information exchange among pro- fessional groups interested in vector-borne diseases, it is essential that a stable nomenclature be maintained. For the Culicidae, easily identiÞable genera based on morphology are an asset. Major changes in generic concept, the elevation of 32 subgenera within Aedes to generic status, and changes in hundreds of species names proposed in a recent article demand consideration by all parties interested in mosquito-borne diseases. The entire approach to Aedini systematics of these authors was ßawed by an inordinate fear of paraphyletic taxa or Paraphylyphobia, and their inability to distinguish between classiÞcation and cladistic analysis. Taxonomists should refrain from making taxonomic changes based on preliminary data, and they should be very selective in assigning generic names to only the most important and well-deÞned groups of species.

  • Additions to the New Flora of Vermont
    Gilman, A.V. Additions to the New Flora of Vermont. Phytoneuron 2016-19: 1–16. Published 3 March 2016. ISSN 2153 733X ADDITIONS TO THE NEW FLORA OF VERMONT ARTHUR V. GILMAN Gilman & Briggs Environmental 1 Conti Circle, Suite 5, Barre, Vermont 05641 [email protected] ABSTRACT Twenty-two species of vascular plants are reported for the state of Vermont, additional to those reported in the recently published New Flora of Vermont. These are Agrimonia parviflora, Althaea officinalis , Aralia elata , Beckmannia syzigachne , Bidens polylepis , Botrychium spathulatum, Carex panicea , Carex rostrata, Eutrochium fistulosum , Ficaria verna, Hypopitys lanuginosa, Juncus conglomeratus, Juncus diffusissimus, Linum striatum, Lipandra polysperma , Matricaria chamomilla, Nabalus racemosus, Pachysandra terminalis, Parthenocissus tricuspidata , Ranunculus auricomus , Rosa arkansana , and Rudbeckia sullivantii. Also new are three varieties: Crataegus irrasa var. irrasa , Crataegus pruinosa var. parvula , and Viola sagittata var. sagittata . Three species that have been reported elsewhere in 2013–2015, Isoetes viridimontana, Naias canadensis , and Solidago brendiae , are also recapitulated. This report and the recently published New Flora of Vermont (Gilman 2015) together summarize knowledge of the vascular flora of Vermont as of this date. The New Flora of Vermont was recently published by The New York Botanical Garden Press (Gilman 2015). It is the first complete accounting of the vascular flora of Vermont since 1969 (Seymour 1969) and adds more than 200 taxa to the then-known flora of the state. However, the manuscript for the New Flora was finalized in spring 2013 and additional species are now known: those that have been observed more recently, that have been recently encountered (or re-discovered) in herbaria, or that were not included because they were under study at the time of finalization.
