Abstract: Puccinia tanaceti in narrow sense is reported from British Columbia for the first time. Golovinomyces asterum var. solidaginis and G. macrocarpus are also new members for mycobiota of BC. New hosts are reported for rusts and powdery mildews in BC and Canada.

  • Native Or Suitable Plants City of Mccall
    Native or Suitable Plants City of McCall The following list of plants is presented to assist the developer, business owner, or homeowner in selecting plants for landscaping. The list is by no means complete, but is a recommended selection of plants which are either native or have been successfully introduced to our area. Successful landscaping, however, requires much more than just the selection of plants. Unless you have some experience, it is suggested than you employ the services of a trained or otherwise experienced landscaper, arborist, or forester. For best results it is recommended that careful consideration be made in purchasing the plants from the local nurseries (i.e. Cascade, McCall, and New Meadows). Plants brought in from the Treasure Valley may not survive our local weather conditions, microsites, and higher elevations. Timing can also be a serious consideration as the plants may have already broken dormancy and can be damaged by our late frosts. Appendix B SELECTED IDAHO NATIVE PLANTS SUITABLE FOR VALLEY COUNTY GROWING CONDITIONS Trees & Shrubs Acer circinatum (Vine Maple). Shrub or small tree 15-20' tall, Pacific Northwest native. Bright scarlet-orange fall foliage. Excellent ornamental. Alnus incana (Mountain Alder). A large shrub, useful for mid to high elevation riparian plantings. Good plant for stream bank shelter and stabilization. Nitrogen fixing root system. Alnus sinuata (Sitka Alder). A shrub, 6-1 5' tall. Grows well on moist slopes or stream banks. Excellent shrub for erosion control and riparian restoration. Nitrogen fixing root system. Amelanchier alnifolia (Serviceberry). One of the earlier shrubs to blossom out in the spring.

    Gredleriana Vol. 1 / 2001 pp. 9 – 81 Neue Erkenntnisse und Untersuchungen über die Roßkastanien-Miniermotte Cameraria ohridella Deschka & Dimic, 1986 (Lepidoptera, Gracillariidae)* Klaus Hellrigl** Abstract New Knowledge and Research on the Horse-Chestnut Leafminer Cameraria ohridella Deschka & Dimic, 1986. The present paper tries to give a comprehensive survey of the horse-chestnut-leafminer C. ohridella by interdisciplinary views and analysis of the host plant range (geography and system of plants) and special circumstances of the leafminer (distribution, affinity, parasitism, occurence of generations). The rapid expansion of C. ohridella in the various countries of central and Southern Europe is ex- plained; in Italy, where the introduction of the leafminer took place in 1994/95 via South Tyrol [central North] and Julian Venetia [North-East], the entire northern region (north of the 44th degree latitude) has already been attacked. The question of the host plants of C. ohridella is analysed and discussed: the leafminer attacks mainly the European horse-chestnut Aesculus hippocastanum, occasionally and to a much lower degree also the sycamore Acer pseudoplatanus; on the other hand, American buckeyes are largely attack-resistant. The relationship between the single species of Genus Aesculus and Genus Acer and their suitability as host-plants for Cameraria are discussed. By comparison of the structures of genitalia it is proved that there is a close relationship with a Cameraria species from Japan, C. niphonica Kumata, that lives on Acer spp. and must be regarded as a sister species of the South-East-European C. ohridella. On the other hand, there is no relationship with the North-American Cameraria species, not even with C.

  • De Novo Transcriptome Sequencing and Anthocyanin Metabolite
    Gao et al. BMC Genomics (2021) 22:383 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12864-021-07715-x RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access De novo transcriptome sequencing and anthocyanin metabolite analysis reveals leaf color of Acer pseudosieboldianum in autumn Yu-Fu Gao†, Dong-Hui Zhao†, Jia-Qi Zhang, Jia-Shuo Chen, Jia-Lin Li, Zhuo Weng and Li-Ping Rong* Abstract Background: Leaf color is an important ornamental trait of colored-leaf plants. The change of leaf color is closely related to the synthesis and accumulation of anthocyanins in leaves. Acer pseudosieboldianum is a colored-leaf tree native to Northeastern China, however, there was less knowledge in Acer about anthocyanins biosynthesis and many steps of the pathway remain unknown to date. Results: Anthocyanins metabolite and transcript profiling were conducted using HPLC and ESI-MS/MS system and high-throughput RNA sequencing respectively. The results demonstrated that five anthocyanins were detected in this experiment. It is worth mentioning that Peonidin O-hexoside and Cyanidin 3, 5-O-diglucoside were abundant, especially Cyanidin 3, 5-O-diglucoside displayed significant differences in content change at two periods, meaning it may be play an important role for the final color. Transcriptome identification showed that a total of 67.47 Gb of clean data were obtained from our sequencing results. Functional annotation of unigenes, including comparison with COG and GO databases, yielded 35,316 unigene annotations. 16,521 differentially expressed genes were identified from a statistical analysis of differentially gene expression. The genes related to leaf color formation including PAL, ANS, DFR, F3H were selected. Also, we screened out the regulatory genes such as MYB, bHLH and WD40.

    Small and Compact Ornamental Trees Small and Compact Ornamental What is considered a small Trees tree in the landscape? ❖ Generally, a small ornamental tree is considered to be from approximately 8-10 in height on the small end and 25-30 in height on the upper size end and growing with one stem or to a roughly equal multi-stemmed form. ❖ Taller growing shrubs may occasionally be pruned into small trees.

In Tsuga (hemlocks), species delimitation has been most challenging among northeastern Asian taxa, where the species are weakly marked morphologically and range in number from three to five in previous studies. Two low-copy nuclear four-coumarase-ligase (4CL) genes and morphology strongly support a clade of the Japanese endemic T. diversifolia and T. sieboldii from Japan and Ulleung island (Ulleungdo) in Korea.
