  • Creation and Carnivory in the Pitcher Plants of Nepenthaceae and Sarraceniaceae
    OPEN ACCESS JCTS Article SERIES B Creation and Carnivory in the Pitcher Plants of Nepenthaceae and Sarraceniaceae R.W. Sanders and T.C. Wood Core Academy of Science, Dayton, TN Abstract The morphological adaptations of carnivorous plants and taxonomic distributions of those adaptations are reviewed, as are the conflicting classifications of the plants based on the adaptations, reproductive morphology, and DNA sequences. To begin developing a creationist understanding of the origin of plant carnivory, we here focus specifically on pitcher plants of Nepenthaceae and Sarraceniaceae because their popularity as cultivated curiosities has generated a literature resource amenable to baraminological analysis. Hybridization records were augmented by total nucleotide differences to assess species similarities. Nonhybridizing species falling within the molecular range of hybridizing species were included in the monobaramin of the hybridizing species. The combined data support each of the three genera of the Sarraceniaceae as a monobaramin, but the three could not be combined into a larger monobaramin. With the Nepenthaceae, the data unequivocally place 73% of the species in a single monobaramin, strongly suggesting the whole genus (and, thus, family) is a monobaramin. The lack of variation in the carnivorous habit provides no evidence for the intrabaraminic origin of carnivory from non-carnivorous plants. An array of fascinating symbiotic relationships of pitchers in some species with unusual bacteria, insects, and vertebrates are known and suggest the origin of carnivory from benign functions of the adaptive structures. However, these symbioses still do not account for the apparent complex design for carnivory characteristic of all species in the two families. Editor: J.W.

    BLUMEA 50: 357–365 Published on 14 July 2005 http://dx.doi.org/10.3767/000651905X623021 ANCISTROCLADUS BENOMENSIS (ANCISTROCLADACEAE): A NEW SPECIES FROM PENINSULAR MALAYSIA H. RISCHER1,2,5, G. HEUBL3, H. MEIMBERG3, M. DREYER2, H.A. HADI 4 & G. BRINGMANN1,5 SUMMARY Ancistrocladus benomensis Rischer & G. Bringmann, a new species from Gunung Benom, Malaysia is described and illustrated. Diagnostic notes concerning morphology, occurrence of specific naphthyl­ isoquinoline alkaloids, and support from molecular analyses are provided. Key words: Ancistrocladus benomensis, Ancistrocladaceae, Gunung Benom, Malaysia. INTRODUCTION The monotypic genus Ancistrocladus Wall. (Ancistrocladaceae) comprises approxi­ mately 20 species (Gereau, 1997) and is characterized by a disjunct distribution in the palaeotropics with two areas of speciation, one in tropical West and Central Africa and one in South East Asia. All taxa are scandent shrubs or woody lianas with tendril­ like modified shoots provided with characteristic circinate woody hooks as climbing devices. Recently a synoptic revision of the African taxa of the genus Ancistrocladus has been presented by Cheek (2000), with an identification key and detailed information concerning taxonomy, distribution, and ecology of the 13 species recognized. For the Asian taxa an equivalent comprehensive study is still lacking and there is much uncertainty in the delimitation of taxa as well as on ecological preferences, seed set, pollination, and flowering rhythm. Concerning taxonomy one has to refer to a synopsis presented by Gilg (1925) and to an annotated checklist of species which was compiled by Gereau (1997) based on a survey of local floras. In this latter overview a detailed account on the typification for 25 binominals is presented, including 12 valid species recognized by the author for South East Asia: A.

  • Caryophyllales: a Key Group for Understanding Wood
    Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2010, 164, 342–393. With 21 figures Caryophyllales: a key group for understanding wood anatomy character states and their evolutionboj_1095 342..393 SHERWIN CARLQUIST FLS* Santa Barbara Botanic Garden, 1212 Mission Canyon Road, Santa Barbara, CA 93110, USA Received 13 May 2010; accepted for publication 28 September 2010 Definitions of character states in woods are softer than generally assumed, and more complex for workers to interpret. Only by a constant effort to transcend the limitations of glossaries can a more than partial understanding of wood anatomy and its evolution be achieved. The need for such an effort is most evident in a major group with sufficient wood diversity to demonstrate numerous problems in wood anatomical features. Caryophyllales s.l., with approximately 12 000 species, are such a group. Paradoxically, Caryophyllales offer many more interpretive problems than other ‘typically woody’ eudicot clades of comparable size: a wider range of wood structural patterns is represented in the order. An account of character expression diversity is presented for major wood characters of Caryophyllales. These characters include successive cambia (more extensively represented in Caryophyllales than elsewhere in angiosperms); vessel element perforation plates (non-bordered and bordered, with and without constrictions); lateral wall pitting of vessels (notably pseudoscalariform patterns); vesturing and sculpturing on vessel walls; grouping of vessels; nature of tracheids and fibre-tracheids, storying in libriform fibres, types of axial parenchyma, ray anatomy and shifts in ray ontogeny; juvenilism in rays; raylessness; occurrence of idioblasts; occurrence of a new cell type (ancistrocladan cells); correlations of raylessness with scattered bundle occurrence and other anatomical discoveries newly described and/or understood through the use of scanning electron microscopy and light microscopy.

In response to the Call for Case Studies on Benefit Sharing Arrangements by the Convention on Biological Diversity, and in accordance with Decisions III/11, III/14, III/15, and III/18, the United Nations Environment Programme commissioned the development of two case studies on benefit sharing arrangements. 2. The case studies analyze the access and benefit-sharing issues and give policy conclusions and recommendations using the indicative outline for case studies on benefit sharing arrangements prepared by the Secretariat to the Convention on Biological Diversity. 3. Case Study 1 examines the US National Cancer Institute (NCI)’s development of the anti-HIV compound michellamine B which is derived from Ancistrocladus korupensis. A. korupensis is a rainforest liana which is locally endemic, but spans the border between Cameroon and Nigeria. Original collections were conducted within the Korup National Park in Cameroon. The case study analyzes the process benefits provided by the NCI’s investment in a domestication and cultivation program for A. korupensis within Cameroon. The case study also analyzes the legal issues surrounding the negotiations between the NCI, the Government of Cameroon, and other domestic stakeholders which spurred the inclusion of access and benefit sharing provisions within Forestry Law No.

These studies focus on species discovery and conservation through the Tropical Important Plant Areas programme. Methods – Normal practices of herbarium taxonomy have been applied to study the material collected. The relevant collections are stored in the Herbarium of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, London and at the Limbe Botanic Garden, Limbe, and the Institute of Research in Agronomic Development – National Herbarium of Cameroon, Yaoundé. Key results – New species to science continue to be discovered from Mt Cameroon. Most of these species are rare, highly localised, and threatened by habitat destruction. These discoveries increase the justification for improved conservation management of surviving habitat.

Stephen A. Smith WGDs have been associated with advantages such as superior colonization, various adapta- Tel: +1 734 615 5510 tions, and increased effective population size. However, the lack of a comprehensive mapping Email: [email protected] of WGDs within a major plant clade has led to uncertainty regarding the potential association Received: 30 May 2017 of WGDs and higher diversification rates. Accepted: 28 July 2017 Using seven chloroplast and nuclear ribosomal genes, we constructed a phylogeny of 5036 species of Caryophyllales, representing nearly half of the extant species. We phylogenetically New Phytologist (2017) mapped putative WGDs as identified from analyses on transcriptomic and genomic data and doi: 10.1111/nph.14772 analyzed these in conjunction with shifts in climatic occupancy and lineage diversification rate. Thirteen putative WGDs and 27 diversification shifts could be mapped onto the phylogeny. Key words: Caryophyllales, climatic occupancy, diversification rates, duplications, Of these, four WGDs were concurrent with diversification shifts, with other diversification phylogenomics.
