The mpI ortance of Geographic and Biological Variables in Predicting the Naturalization of Non-Native Woody Plants in the Upper Midwest Abstract The es lection, introduction, and cultivation of non-native woody plants beyond their native ranges can have great benefits, but also unintended consequences. Among these consequences is the tendency for some species to naturalize and become invasive pests in new environments to which they were introduced. In lieu of lengthy and costly field trials, risk-assessment models can be used to predict the likelihood of naturalization.

Molecular Phylogenetic Analyses Reveal a Close Evolutionary Relationship Between Podosphaera (Erysiphales: Erysiphaceae) and Its Rosaceous Hosts
Persoonia 24, 2010: 38–48 www.persoonia.org RESEARCH ARTICLE doi:10.3767/003158510X494596 Molecular phylogenetic analyses reveal a close evolutionary relationship between Podosphaera (Erysiphales: Erysiphaceae) and its rosaceous hosts S. Takamatsu1, S. Niinomi1, M. Harada1, M. Havrylenko 2 Key words Abstract Podosphaera is a genus of the powdery mildew fungi belonging to the tribe Cystotheceae of the Erysipha ceae. Among the host plants of Podosphaera, 86 % of hosts of the section Podosphaera and 57 % hosts of the 28S rDNA subsection Sphaerotheca belong to the Rosaceae. In order to reconstruct the phylogeny of Podosphaera and to evolution determine evolutionary relationships between Podosphaera and its host plants, we used 152 ITS sequences and ITS 69 28S rDNA sequences of Podosphaera for phylogenetic analyses. As a result, Podosphaera was divided into two molecular clock large clades: clade 1, consisting of the section Podosphaera on Prunus (P. tridactyla s.l.) and subsection Magnicel phylogeny lulatae; and clade 2, composed of the remaining member of section Podosphaera and subsection Sphaerotheca. powdery mildew fungi Because section Podosphaera takes a basal position in both clades, section Podosphaera may be ancestral in Rosaceae the genus Podosphaera, and the subsections Sphaerotheca and Magnicellulatae may have evolved from section Podosphaera independently. Podosphaera isolates from the respective subfamilies of Rosaceae each formed different groups in the trees, suggesting a close evolutionary relationship between Podosphaera spp. and their rosaceous hosts. However, tree topology comparison and molecular clock calibration did not support the possibility of co-speciation between Podosphaera and Rosaceae. Molecular phylogeny did not support species delimitation of P. aphanis, P.

Plant Material List
Town of Garner Plant Material List Prepared by the Planning Department Last update: April 2008 PLANT MATERIAL Purpose and Intent Purpose The plant material list contained in this Manual provides a suggested selection of plants that will both enhance the native landscape of Garner and minimize water consumption. Intent To ensure that appropriate plants are selected for use in the Town of Garner. The tables offer species suggestions, with some provided performance characteristics. If offers a guide for the type of plant material the Town of Garner wishes to see used to satisfy the requirements of the landscape ordinance. Plants with more exacting growing condition or those with less certainty of success should be reserved for minor accent or specialty use. The suggested list emphasizes drought tolerant plants. Non-drought tolerant plants may be used if non-public water sources are used for irrigation, if the planting area is naturally wet, or the planting area is to be used for bioretention. The suggested plant list of this manual generally does not include named hybrids and variously named species subtypes such as subspecies, varieties and cultivars due to the requirement to list such a large number of names if all suitable plants were to be included. Even though hybrids and named species subtypes are note listed, the Town of Garner anticipates the use of such plants, and even encourages their use in situations where they are expected to perform significantly better than species types. However, it must be recognized that plant hybrids or named species subtypes may differ greatly in habit, size and other characteristics from that of the parent species or other genetically related hybrids or subtypes.
