    Aula 2 GIMNOSPERMA META Apresentar as Gimnospermas, incluindo os grupos extintos e viventes, destacando suas estruturas vegetativas e reprodutivas e a importância da utilização destes caracteres para a taxonomia. OBJETIVOS Ao fi nal desta aula, o aluno deverá: saber reconhecer os caracteres diagnósticos deste grupo incluindo informações acerca de sua morfologia, exemplos, importância econômica e grupos viventes. (Fonte: http://www.algosobre.com.br) Botânica Sistemática e Econômica INTRODUÇÃO Apesar de podermos encontrar erroneamente na internet citações sobre a presença de fl ores e até mesmo de infl orescências durante a apresentação do ciclo de vida deste grupo, vale a pena destacar que são plantas que possuem sementes nuas, não encerradas (protegidas) pelo ovário, por isso o nome que lhe foi conferido: Gimnospermas que signifi ca “semente (sperma) e nua (gimno)”. Dessa forma, é um grupo caracterizado pela presença de sementes e ausência de fl ores e frutos e incluem árvores como os pinheiros, os ciprestes e as sequoias que também incluem as mais altas e antigas árvores. Mas se estas plantas não possuem fl ores como é então que se dá a re- produção dessas espécies? Em relação aos grupos vegetais vocês devem lembrar que desde Briófi tas, Pteridófi tas até chegar às Gimospermas vem aumentando o nível de adaptação à vida terrestre. Muitas novidades evolutivas aparecem em Gimnospermas e é sobre isso que iremos tratar nesta aula, sobre a presença dos estróbilos (micro e mega), a formação do grão de pólen (gametófi to masculino), a formação do óvulo (gametófi to feminino) e a formação de sementes. As plantas com sementes desenvolveram sementes expostas (nuas) ou encapsuladas.

  • Temperate and Tropical Podocarps: How Ecologically Alike Are They? David A
    7 Temperate and Tropical Podocarps: How Ecologically Alike Are They? David A. Coomes and Peter J. Bellingham ABSTRACT. With few exceptions, podocarps are specialists of nutrient-poor soils within temperate and tropical rainforests. They are locally abundant in some tropical mountains, especially near the tree line, and in the lowland tropics most are confined to heathlands and impoverished habitats, although some can persist in forest understories. The ecology of tropical podocarps is not well understood, so here we draw on literature from temperate regions to help characterize their niches. Temperate podocarps are ef- fective at capturing and retaining nutrients at the expense of competitors. They are uni- versally slow growing, but this is not necessarily an encumbrance on poor soils because competition for light is relatively weak. Temperate podocarps are often outcompeted on richer soils because several factors stack against them: they are ill equipped to compete with angiosperms in the race to occupy canopy gaps, there may be few sites for their establishment on the forest floors, and continuous regeneration by podocarps is seldom found in the forest understory because their growth is severely hampered by shading. We suggest that competition excludes imbricate- leaved podocarps from most lowland tropi- cal forests, whereas broad- leaved species with anastomosing veins (Nageia and some Podocarpus) are so shade tolerant that they regenerate beneath closed canopies. INTRODUCTION In 1989, Bond revisited an old but unresolved question: why were coni- David A.

Biota Neotropica. 18(4): e20180590. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/1676-0611-BN-2018-0590 Abstract: Undoubtedly, the publication of floristic lists and phytosociological studies are important tools for metadata generation, quantification and characterization of the megadiversity of Brazilian forests. In this sense, this work had the objective of describing the composition and the structure of the tree community of one hectare of Dense Atlantic Rainforest, at an altitude of 800 m. All individuals, including trees, palm trees, arborescent ferns and dead and standing stems, with a diameter at breast height (DBH) of ≥ 4.8 cm were sampled. After the identification of the botanical material, we proceeded to calculate the usual phytosociological parameters, besides the Shannon diversity index (H’) and Pielou equability index (J). A total of 1.791 individuals were sampled, of which 1.729 were alive, belonging to 185 species, 100 genera and 46 families.

Entre ellos, las abejas constituyen un eslabón esencial en la polinización de angiospermas que durante millones de años desarrollaron estrategias cada vez más específicas para atraerlas. De esta forma se establece una relación muy fuerte entre am- bos, planta-polinizador, y cuanto mayor es la especialización, tal como sucede en un gran número de especies de orquídeas y cactáceas entre otros grupos, ésta se torna más vulnerable ante cambios ambientales naturales o producidos por el hombre. De esta forma, el estudio de este tipo de interacciones resulta cada vez más importante en vista del incremento de áreas perturbadas o modificadas de manera antrópica en las cuales la fauna y flora queda expuesta a adaptarse a las nuevas condiciones o desaparecer.

  • Woody and Herbaceous Plants Native to Haiti for Use in Miami-Dade Landscapes1
    Woody and Herbaceous Plants Native to Haiti For use in Miami-Dade Landscapes1 Haiti occupies the western one third of the island of Hispaniola with the Dominican Republic the remainder. Of all the islands within the Caribbean basin Hispaniola possesses the most varied flora after that of Cuba. The plants contained in this review have been recorded as native to Haiti, though some may now have been extirpated due in large part to severe deforestation. Less than 1.5% of the country’s original tree-cover remains. Haiti’s future is critically tied to re- forestation; loss of tree cover has been so profound that exotic fast growing trees, rather than native species, are being used to halt soil erosion and lessen the risk of mudslides. For more information concerning Haiti’s ecological plight consult references at the end of this document. For present purposes all of the trees listed below are native to Haiti, which is why non-natives such as mango (the most widely planted tree) and other important trees such as citrus, kassod tree (Senna siamea) and lead tree (Leucanea leucocephala) are not included. The latter two trees are among the fast growing species used for re-forestation. The Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History’s Flora of the West Indies was an invaluable tool in assessing the range of plants native to Haiti. Not surprisingly many of the listed trees and shrubs 1 John McLaughlin Ph.D. U.F./Miami-Dade County Extension Office, Homestead, FL 33030 Page | 1 are found in other parts of the Caribbean with some also native to South Florida.

  • Anti-Trichomonad Activities of Different Compounds from Foods, Marine Products, and Medicinal Plants: a Review Mendel Friedman1* , Christina C
    Friedman et al. BMC Complementary Medicine and Therapies (2020) 20:271 BMC Complementary https://doi.org/10.1186/s12906-020-03061-9 Medicine and Therapies REVIEW Open Access Anti-trichomonad activities of different compounds from foods, marine products, and medicinal plants: a review Mendel Friedman1* , Christina C. Tam2, Luisa W. Cheng2 and Kirkwood M. Land3 Abstract Human trichomoniasis, caused by the pathogenic parasitic protozoan Trichomonas vaginalis, is the most common non-viral sexually transmitted disease that contributes to reproductive morbidity in affected women and possibly to prostate cancer in men. Tritrichomonas foetus strains cause the disease trichomoniasis in farm animals (cattle, bulls, pigs) and diarrhea in domestic animals (cats and dogs). Because some T. vaginalis strains have become resistant to the widely used drug metronidazole, there is a need to develop alternative treatments, based on safe natural products that have the potential to replace and/or enhance the activity of lower doses of metronidazole. To help meet this need, this overview collates and interprets worldwide reported studies on the efficacy of structurally different classes of food, marine, and medicinal plant extracts and some of their bioactive pure compounds against T. vaginalis and T. foetus in vitro and in infected mice and women. Active food extracts include potato peels and their glycoalkaloids α-chaconine and α-solanine, caffeic and chlorogenic acids, and quercetin; the tomato glycoalkaloid α- tomatine; theaflavin-rich black tea extracts and bioactive theaflavins; plant essential oils and their compounds (+)-α- bisabolol and eugenol; the grape skin compound resveratrol; the kidney bean lectin, marine extracts from algae, seaweeds, and fungi and compounds that are derived from fungi; medicinal extracts and about 30 isolated pure compounds.

In this chapter, we attempt to describe the major types of vegetation cover in this vast region as they occurred in pre- Columbian times and outline the conditions that support them. Examining the large-scale phytogeographic regions characterized by each major cover type (see Fig. I), we provide basic information on geology, geological history, topography, and climate; describe variants of physiognomy (vegetation structure) and geography; discuss transitions; and examine some floristic patterns and affinities within and among these regions.

INTRODUÇÃO De acordo com as análises filogenéticas do Grupo Filogenético de Angiospermas (APG IV 2016), Sapotaceae está no clado Asterídea, dentro da ordem Ericales, apresentando uma maior similaridade filogenética com Ebenaceae e Pentaphylacaceae. A família compreende 58 gêneros com aproximadamente 1.250 espécies predominantemente pantropical, com alta diversidade em regiões tropicais e subtropicais da América do Sul e Ásia, encontradas especialmente em florestas úmidas (Swenson & Anderberg 2005), sendo facilmente reconhecida pela combinação do látex, com o arranjo e venação das folhas (Gentry 1993). Sapotaceae ocupa lugar de destaque na flora brasileira, com 202 espécies distribuídas em 12 gêneros, sendo que 101 espécies são endêmicas do país (Carneiro et al. 2015). Manilkara Adans. é considerado o quarto maior gênero de Sapotaceae, com 78 espécies pantropicais, sendo 30 nas Américas Central e do Sul, 35 na África e 13 no Sudeste da Ásia (Armstrong et al. 2010). No Neotrópico, ocorre na costa litorânea e na região amazônica do Brasil, além do Paraguai, Uruguai e Chile, sendo caracterizado pelo cálice em duas séries, presença de estaminódios e a forma do hilo (Pennington 1990). Segundo Andrade (1957), no Brasil o gênero apresenta maior representatividade em áreas de Restinga e Mata Atlântica. Almeida Jr. (2010) realizou estudos que esclareceram a distribuição geográfica do gênero e o estado de conservação das espécies para o Nordeste do Brasil, registrando 12 espécies que se diferenciam, principalmente, pela quantidade de flores, tamanho de pecíolo e pedicelo, filotaxia, variação da folha e do indumento.
