Zonas Aridas Nº10 1 Leyenda de la carátula Desierto costero a 2000 m de altitud, con Browningia candelaria con ramas ornamentadas en la parte superior. En el fondo, un ejemplar joven de columna ramificada y una ramifica- ción principiante en el primer plano. Las ramas superiores pueden presentar un desarrollo aún mayor que el de la Browningia adulta (derecha), perdiendo entonces su rígida regulari- dad y adquiriendo así formas variadas, movidas y onduladas. Figura extraída del libro, “El Continente de los Colibris” (2003) de Andreas Suchantke y que fuera incluida en el artículo “A través de la Costa Desértica hacia los Cardonales de los Andes Occidentales (2)” en Quepo Vol. 17-2003 (p. 52). Cover Legend Desert Coast at 2000 m altitude, with Browningia candelaria with ornamental branches at top. Towards the back, a young individual with ramified column; in front an initial ramifica- tion. The top branches can develop higher levels as that presented by the adult Browningia (right), loosing their rigid regularity and becoming of varied, motional and undulated forms. Figure extracted from the book “El Continente de los Colibris” (2003) by Andreas Suchantke included in the article “A través de la Costa Desértica hacia los Cardonales de los Andes Occiden- tales (2)” in Quepo Vol. 17-2003 (p. 52). 2 Zonas Áridas Publicada por el Centro de Investigaciones de Zonas Áridas (CIZA) Universidad Nacional Agraria La Molina Published by the Center for Arid Lands Research (CIZA) National Agrarian University La Molina Director/ Director MSc.

En los desiertos americanos, las plantas que pintan inmediatamente sus hermosos paisajes, son las cactáceas y las suculentas en general. A estos grupos está dedicado el presente número 10 de la Revista Zonas Áridas, conducido científicamente por nuestro editor invitado, el Dr. Carlos Ostolaza Nano, Presidente de la Sociedad Peruana de Cactus y Suculentas del Perú, quien desde la Dirección de la Revista “Quepo” nos muestra los avances logrados en la investigación de es- tas importantes familias botánicas, tanto a nivel nacional como internacional. Acompañaron a Carlos en este número, la editora Biol. Sonia González Molina y el Comité Editor conformado por la Dra. María de los Ángeles La Torre-Cuadros y el MSc. Reynaldo Linares-Palomino, quienes han marcado el ritmo de la revista durante esta segunda era de la publicación, que tiene 3 años consecutivos manteniendo su periodicidad anual. Otro elemento que caracteriza este número es la presencia explícita del arte, a través de un homenaje a la gran pintora mexicana Frida Kahlo, que sumado a la composición de los artículos científicos, es un homenaje a uno de los países, que como el nuestro, tiene una gran cultura del desierto, México. Los investigadores peruanos y mexicanos en este tema son una muestra más de los lazos que unen a nuestros antiguos pueblos del desierto y que hoy se proyectan a otros continentes hermanos como África.

  • Weller Final Paper
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE FINAL REPORT OF Stacey A. Weller for the degree of Master of Botany and Plant Pathology in the Professional Science Master’s Program presented on December 6, 2006. Title: Conservation and Land Management: Seeds of Success, New Mexico Internship conducted at: USDI Bureau of Land Management Las Cruces District Office 1800 Marquess Street Las Cruces, NM 88005 Supervisor: Michael O. Howard, BLM New Mexico State Botanist Dates of Internship: June 26, 2006 – November 24, 2006 Abstract approved: Aaron I. Liston The Seeds of Success (SOS) is a wildland seed collection program in support of the interagency Native Plant Materials Development Program (NPMP) and in partnership with the global conservation initiative, the Millennium Seed Bank Project of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. SOS collections follow a set protocol with consideration for the optimal genetic diversity of the sample, the future utility of the species, and the sustainability of the current population. These high-quality, well documented seed collections serve a dual purpose; they help land managers in meeting the many restoration, rehabilitation, and revegetation needs of degraded lands across the country and they also serve as ex situ conservation material in national and international seed banks for future research and development and the security of the world’s plant diversity at a time of mass extinction. My five-month internship with the Bureau of Land Management in Las Cruces, New Mexico, initiated the SOS program for the state and resulted in at least thirty-two collections for long-term banking, local restoration, and research and development by the USDA Agricultural Research Service.

Phylogenetic analyses of tribe Opuntieae DC., have in recent years, refined the way that we delimit Opuntia s.str. Seven segregate genera within tribe Opuntieae have been recognized based on previous morpho - logical studies, as well as results from phylogenetic data (i.e. Brasiliopuntia, Consolea, Miqueliopuntia, Opuntia, Salmiopuntia, Tacinga , and Tunilla ). Here we underscore the major clades of tribe Opuntieae, with a specific focus on the genus Opuntia , analyze morphological evolution throughout the clade, and discuss morphological synapomorphies of individual clades, when known. Polyploidy and hybridization have been major drivers of speciation within the Opuntieae, where polyploids account for nearly 61% of recognized species. Taxonomic implications regarding phylogenetic and cytological studies also are discussed. Introduction Tribe Opuntieae DC. consists of seven currently recognized genera, Brasiliopuntia A. Berger , Consolea Lem ., Miqueliopuntia Frič ex F. Ritter , Opuntia Mill., Salmiopuntia Frič , Tacinga Britton & Rose, and Tunilla D.R.
