Although anthocyanins were thought to be responsible for the color variations among varieties, their distribution and metabolite changes in petals that might be affected by anthocyanins color during flowering were not clear. The petals were analyzed by matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Metabolites extracted from sequential disc cut samples from petal tissue showed that the metabolites, including anthocyanins, were not uniformly distributed in petals and their distribution changed during flowering Keywords: Anthocyanin; Biotyping; Blue morning glory (Ipomoea reports that used imaging analyses for plant tissues has been increasing indica); Matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass [12-14].

Gann, Executive Director Submitted to CarolAnn Sharkey Key West Botanical Garden 5210 College Road Key West, Florida 33040 and Kate Marks Heritage Preservation 1012 14th Street, NW, Suite 1200 Washington DC 20005 Introduction The Key West Botanical Garden (KWBG) is located at 5210 College Road on Stock Island, Monroe County, Florida. It is a 7.5 acre conservation area, owned by the City of Key West. The KWBG requested that The Institute for Regional Conservation (IRC) conduct a floristic evaluation of its natural areas and grounds and to provide recommendations. Study Design On August 9-10, 2005 an inventory of all vascular plants was conducted at the KWBG. All areas of the KWBG were visited, including the newly acquired property to the south. Special attention was paid toward the remnant natural habitats. A preliminary plant list was established. Plant taxonomy generally follows Wunderlin (1998) and Bailey et al. (1976). Results Five distinct habitats were recorded for the KWBG. Two of which are human altered and are artificial being classified as developed upland and modified wetland. In addition, three natural habitats are found at the KWBG. They are coastal berm (here termed buttonwood hammock), rockland hammock, and tidal swamp habitats. Developed and Modified Habitats Garden and Developed Upland Areas The developed upland portions include the maintained garden areas as well as the cleared parking areas, building edges, and paths.

  • Evolutionary History of the Tip100 Transposon in the Genus Ipomoea
    Genetics and Molecular Biology, 35, 2, 460-465 (2012) Copyright © 2012, Sociedade Brasileira de Genética. Printed in Brazil www.sbg.org.br Research Article Evolutionary history of the Tip100 transposon in the genus Ipomoea Ana-Paula Christoff1, Elgion L.S. Loreto2 and Lenira M.N. Sepel2 1Curso de Ciências Biológicas, Centro de Ciências Naturais e Exatas, Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, Santa Maria, RS, Brazil. 2Departamento de Biologia, Centro de Ciências Naturais e Exatas, Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, Santa Maria, RS, Brazil. Abstract Tip100 is an Ac-like transposable element that belongs to the hAT superfamily. First discovered in Ipomoea purpurea (common morning glory), it was classified as an autonomous element capable of movement within the genome. As Tip100 data were already available in databases, the sequences of related elements in ten additional species of Ipomoea and five commercial varieties were isolated and analyzed. Evolutionary analysis based on sequence diver- sity in nuclear ribosomal Internal Transcribed Spacers (ITS), was also applied to compare the evolution of these ele- ments with that of Tip100 in the Ipomoea genus. Tip100 sequences were found in I. purpurea, I. nil, I. indica and I. alba, all of which showed high levels of similarity. The results of phylogenetic analysis of transposon sequences were congruent with the phylogenetic topology obtained for ITS sequences, thereby demonstrating that Tip100 is re- stricted to a particular group of species within Ipomoea. We hypothesize that Tip100 was probably acquired from a common ancestor and has been transmitted vertically within this genus. Key words: hAT, transposable elements, Ac-Ds, Ipomoea, genome evolution, ITS.

    Recognising and managing environmental weeds in Boroondara Contents Introduction 1 Weed control strategies 4 Weedy trees 7 Weedy shrubs 12 Weedy creepers and climbers 17 Weedy grasses and herbs 25 Further information and contacts 36 Definitions • Indigenous species are native plants that occur naturally in the local area. • Environmental weeds are plants that aggressively invade natural bushland and displace native flora and fauna. • Noxious weeds are plant species declared under state legislation that cause environmental or economic harm or have the potential to cause such harm. • Naturalised species are exotic or alien species that have established self-sustaining populations outside gardens, farms or plantations. Photos: Thanks to Ian Moodie, and RG & FJ Richardson weedinfo.com.au Introduction Environmental weeds pose the most significant threat to local biodiversity Environmental weeds are plants that invade natural ecosystems such as bushlands, waterways and native grasslands. They may be native or introduced species and are often common garden plant ‘escapees’ that produce prolific seed and establish easily. This booklet contains information on the most serious environmental weeds that are currently threatening local biodiversity. It includes descriptions and photos of each of the weeds, strategies for removing them and suggests a replacement species. How environmental weeds affect local biodiversity Environmental weeds compete with local plants for light, nutrients, water, space and pollinators. They can shade, smother, and crowd local plants, filling natural gaps that are required for native plant regeneration. They generally provide poor habitat for local wildlife. 1 Introduction How weeds spread Plants have evolved many specialised ways of successfully reproducing and spreading to ensure their establishment and survival.

MELVIN USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service Central National Technology Support Center 501 W. Felix Street, Bldg. 23 Fort Worth, Texas 76115-3404 ABSTRACT The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) administers the National Wetland Plant List (NWPL) for the United States (U.S.) and its territories. Responsibility for the NWPL was transferred to the Corps from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) in 2006. From 2006 to 2012 the Corps led an interagency effort to update the list in conjunction with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the FWS, and the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), culminating in the publication of the 2012 NWPL. In 2013 and 2014 geographic ranges and nomenclature were updated. This paper presents the fourth update of the list under Corps administration. During the current update, the indicator status of 1689 species was reviewed. A total of 306 ratings of 186 species were changed during the update.

All species are grown as ornamentals, and thus horticulture is considered the most possible pathway for their introduction. Nevertheless, in the case of Physalis angulata, the occurrence might have originated in the remains of picnic meals. In order to defi ne the alien status of these species, monitoring is needed, and thus we propose including the species on the National List of Indicators in environmental protection. Special attention should be paid to the species with invasive potentials: Solidago canadensis, Ipomoea indica and Physalis angulata.

  • SCREENING of SEED OILS from FOUR SPECIES of GENUS IPOMOEA IJCRR Section: Healthcare Sci
    Research Article SCREENING OF SEED OILS FROM FOUR SPECIES OF GENUS IPOMOEA IJCRR Section: Healthcare Sci. Journal Impact Factor Mohammed Taufeeque, Abdul Malik, M. R. K. Sherwani 4.016 Natural Product Lab., Department of Chemistry, J.N.V. University, Jodhpur-342001, Rajasthan, India. ABSTRACT Background: India depends upon world market to fulfill their industrial and domestic demand of oil, account huge foreign exchange. Since agriculture in India depend upon monsoon, causes uncertainty. In last few decades, there is rapid increase in demand of oil and their oleo chemicals in industries like plasticizers, lubricants, pharmaceuticals, organic pesticides, agro products etc. Aim: The aim of this study is to explore non-traditional oil sources in order to establish them for various purposes. Methodology: Seeds from four plant species of genus Ipomoea (I. indica, I. nil, I. pestigridis and I. quamoclit) belonging to convol- vulaceae family were subjected to various analytical technique to evaluate their physico-chemical properties. Fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) were analyzed using chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques to evaluate their fatty acid compositions. Results: The results show that the oil yields from the seeds varied from 7.84% to 14.71%. Linoleic and oleic acids were found major fatty acids in all four seed oils. They show high iodine and saponification values. The all four seed oil show high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and P/S index more than 1. Conclusion: Fair oil%, high saponification value and P/S index more than 1, indicated us to use these parameters to establish them as alternate oil sources for various domestic and industrial applications.
