THE ROYAL HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY The International RHODODENDRON REGISTER and CHECKLIST (2004) Consolidated Supplement 2003-2017 THE INTERNATIONAL RHODODENDRON REGISTER AND CHECKLIST (2004) Consolidated Supplement 2003-2017 The second edition of the International Rhododendron Register and Checklist included accounts of all plants whose names had been registered up to the end of December 2002. This Supplement deals with all names registered during the period 1 January 2003 to 31 December 2017. The layout of each entry follows the format adopted in the 2004 Register and Checklist and is explained there in detail on pages 7-10 of the Introduction. It may however be helpful to repeat here that the following abbreviations are employed: (a) = azalea (az) = azaleodendron cv. = cultivar G = grown to first flower by… gp = Group H = hybridised by… I = introduced by… N = named by… (r) = rhododendron R = raised by… REG = registered by… S = selected by… (s) = seed parent (v) = vireya Wherever possible colour references are given to the RHS Colour Chart (1966, 1986, 1995 & 2001) with the colour description being taken from A contribution towards standardization of color names in horticulture, by R.D. Huse and K.L. Kelly (ed. D.H. Voss), 1984. All raisers and introducers of new rhododendrons are urged to ensure that the names of their plants have been registered and are reminded that registration needs to be effected before the plant is introduced or the name appears in print. Registration forms can be obtained from the International Rhododendron Registrar (at the address given below), from the RHS website (www.rhs.org.uk/plants/plant-science/plant registration-forms/rhodoform) or from one of the national or regional registrars as follows: North America Mr Michael Martin Mills, 632 Burnham Road, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania PA19119-3510, USA Australia Mrs Lesley Eaton, PO Box 597, Snug, Tasmania 7054, Australia New Zealand Mr Brian J.

Dietary profile of Rhinopithecus bieti and its socioecological implications Abstract To enhance our understanding of dietary adaptations and socioecological correlates in colobines, we conducted a 20-mo study of a wild group of Rhinopithecus bieti (Yunnan snub-nosed monkeys) in the montane Samage Forest. This forest supports a patchwork of evergreen broadleaved, evergreen coniferous, and mixed deciduous broadleaved/ coniferous forest assemblages with a total of 80 tree species in 23 families. The most common plant families by basal area are the predominantly evergreen Pinaceae and Fagaceae, comprising 69% of the total tree biomass.

    Fungal Interactions with Vascular and Non-Vascular Plants: an Investigation of Mutualisms and Their Roles in Heathland Regeneration

    Fungal interactions with vascular and non-vascular plants: an investigation of mutualisms and their roles in heathland regeneration JILL KOWAL A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY, IMPERIAL COLLEGE LONDON, DEPARTMENT OF LIFE SCIENCES JUNE 16, 2016 1 Abstract Mycorrhizal mutualisms between aboveground vascular plant communities, which reward their belowground fungal associates with photosynthates in return for growth- limiting nutrients such as phosphate, are widely recognized as stable long-term interactions which helped plants colonize land. Pezoloma ericae (D.J. Read) Baral, an ascomycete mycorrhiza-forming fungus present amongst plants in the Ericales, such as heathers, also forms associations in several families of non-vascular leafy liverworts. Whether there is a mutually beneficial functional relationship between these leafy liverworts and the fungus growing in their rhizoids was previously unconfirmed. Furthermore, an ecological role of this ‘shared’ mycobiont and its link between vascular (Ericaceae) and non-vascular (liverworts) plants was also unknown. Thus the main questions asked in this dissertation are: 1) Is there a measurable mutually beneficial relationship between a liverwort and its fungal partner?; and, 2) Can liverworts harbouring the ericoid mycorrhiza P. ericae act as inoculum that facilitates the re- establishment of Ericaceae - and henceforth be proposed as a practical tool in a restoration ecology context. This is the first time British species of leafy liverworts are conclusively identified to harbour the ericoid mycorrhizal fungus Pezoloma ericae using molecular identification. I have demonstrated a mutualism occurring between the leafy liverworts and their fungal symbiont in two independent microcosm growth experiments and confirmatory reciprocal trophic exchanges between phosphorus and carbon and the two organisms.

    SRGC ----- Bulb Log Diary ----- Pictures and text © Ian Young BULB LOG 18..................................4th May 2016 Yellow Erythronium grandiflorum and the pure white of Erythronium elegans, growing in the rock garden, are featured on this week’s cover picture. Despite all the extremes that our weather is delivering the flowering of the Erythroniums is at a peak just now. In one of the sand plunge beds a basket of Erythronium hendersonii opens its flowers responding to one of the sunny periods. View across the rock garden bed to one of the sand plunges. Erythronium revolutum hybrids These are two of the Erythronium revolutum hybrids that I lifted for assessment a few years ago. I grew them in pots for a year then transferred them into plunge baskets last summer to allow them more space to increase. They both have well-marked leaves and interesting markings in the flowers so the main thing I am trialling them for is to see how quickly they will increase. Erythronium ‘Joanna’ One of the plants that has suffered a bit in the bad weather is Erythronium ‘Joanna’. The flowers of this group, growing in a plunge basket, have become spotted with some withering at the tips while others planted out under the cover of Rhododendrons are fine. I also notice similar damage on flowers of Erythronium tuloumnense, one of the parents of E. ‘Joanna’. Erythronium ‘Craigton Cover Girl’ There is no doubt that the flowers of some species are more resistent to the cold wet conditions and that resilience is passed on to hybrids. Erythronium ‘Craigton Cover Girl’ has E.

This botanical treasure trove is under growing pressure from a complex chain of cause and effect of unprecedented magnitude: demographic, socio-economic and climatic changes, habitat conversion and loss, unsustainable use of native species and introduction of exotic ones, together with environmental contamination are rapidly transforming China’s ecosystems. There is a steady rise in the number of plant species that are on the verge of extinction. Great Wall, Badaling, Beijing (Image: Zhang Qingyuan) Botanic Gardens Conservation International (BGCI) therefore seeks to assist China in its endeavours to maintain and conserve the country’s extraordinary botanical heritage and the benefits that this biological diversity provides for human well-being. It is a challenging venture and represents one of BGCI’s core practical conservation programmes.
