Resumen y Abstract VII Resumen Solanum es el género más grande y diverso de plantas de la familia Solanaceae, con aproximadamente 1400 especies. Entre sus especies se encuentran muchas de importancia económica por su uso y explotación como alimento y aplicaciones en farmacología, además de las relaciones ecológicas y evolutivas que establecen con numerosas especies de insectos para los cuales son plantas nutricias. En el presente estudio se realizó una tipificación molecular de 17 especies de Solanum, subgénero Leptostemonum, mediante secuenciación de fragmentos de las regiones matK, trnH-psbA e ITS. Se estandarizaron las condiciones para la extracción y amplificación de los fragmentos y se evaluó su utilidad para la separación de las especies en comparación con previa determinación morfológica realizada por el especialista. Los resultados demostraron que ITS tiene el mayor número de sitios variables, diversidad nucleotídica, y las tasas más altas de discriminación (88,9%) seguido por trnH-pbsA y matK; sin embargo su amplificación produce resultados menos satisfactorios que las regiones del cloroplasto. Entre las posibles combinaciones de loci con matK + trnH-psbA +ITS, ITS + trnH-psbA e ITS + matK se obtuvo el mismo poder de discriminación (88,9%), pero debido a las ventajas de trabajar con una región codificante se recomienda usar ITS + matK para identificar especies de plantas del subgénero Leptostemonum. Palabras clave: matK, trnH-psbA, ITS, plantas, DNA barcode Abstract Genus Solanum is the largest and most diverse of family Solanaceae, with about 1400 species. Many species are economically important for its use and exploitation for food and pharmacology applications, in addition to the ecological and evolutionary relationships established with numerous species of insects for which are food plants. In this study it was performed molecular typing of species of the genus Solanum subgenus Leptostemonum using sequences of matK, trnH-psbA and ITS. Conditions for extraction and amplification of the fragments were standardized and it evaluated the utility of these for separating species compared to previous morphological determination by the specialist. Results demonstrated that ITS have the most variable sites, greater nucleotide divergences, and the highest species discrimination rates (88.9%). It was followed by trnH-psbA and matK (each 77%). However, its amplification produces less satisfactory results than the chloroplastic regions. Combinations of loci with matK+trnH-psbA+ITS, ITS+trnH-psbA and ITS + matK showed the same species discrimination rates (88.9%) but because of the advantages of working with a coding region, we recommended using ITS + matK to identify plant species of subgenus Leptostemonum.

    BONPLANDIA 9 (1-2): 1-18. 1996 ESTUDIO DE LA VEGETACION NATIVA EN PLANTACIONES DE EUCALYPTUS GRANDIS (MYRTACEAE) EN EL NORTE DE LA PROVINCIA DE CORRIENTES, REPUBLICA ARGENTINAl por WILFREDO H. BARRETT2 YSARA G. TRESSENS3 Summary Vascular plant species of the understory of Euca/yptus grandis plantations were studied in the northeastern departments of the Argentinian province of Corrientes. These plantations were located in red soil hills, in sandy river banks and in fossil sand dunes of the Paraná River. The inventory includes 243 native taxa corresponding to 66 families; 86% belong to the Dicotyledons of which most of them (70%) are woody species. The families best represented are: Leguminosae, Myrtaceae, So/anaceae, Compositae and Euphorbiaceae. Size, number of species and individuals within species decrease from the North to the Southwest associated to soillimiting factors and lesser rainfall. Most of the Dicotyledons have mechanisms for dispersal related to the animals (49%), mostly birds, followed by wind (25%). An important number of species (64%) belong to the native subtropical humid hardwood forest. Many overstory species of this forest compete succesfully with the eucalipts, such as: Cabra/ea canjerana, Patagonu/a americana, H%ca/yx ba/ansae, Tabebuia heptaphylla, al! important regional commercial timber. Also a great number of species living spontaneously in humid conditions, were found apparently wel! adapted to the new environment. Since most of the species of the understory of the Euca/yptus grandis plantations came from the native humid forest, it is possible to conclude that these plantations create environmental conditions which favor the migration of the humid forest over the sabanas and grasslands of the neighborhood.

This interaction focuses on the use and management of natural resources that, in many cases, are common-pool resources. In Mexico, common-pool resources have long been explored since at least 60% of the forested lands in the country are held under the legal figure of ‘ejidos’ and indigenous communities, which aimed at driving the collective use of lands and resources. However, few studies incorporate ecological processes for an integrated understanding of social-ecological systems. In this study, we seek to understand how ecological variability influences the creation and functioning of Ecological variability and rule-making processes for forest management 1145 different rules and, consequently, institutions for forests management.

The original publication is available at www.springerlink.com ***Note: Figures may be missing from this format of the document Abstract: Adventitious shoots and roots were regenerated from leaf segments of 3 Solanum species: S. candidum Lindl., S. quitoense Lam. and S. sessiliflorum Dunal. Leaf explants differentiated shoots on modified MS medium supplemented with 23-163 μm kinetin and 0-5.7 μm indoleacetic acid (IAA). Excised shoots were induced to form roots by transfer to media with benzyladenine (BA) and naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) at 0.09 and 0.11/2 μM respectively for S. qultoense and 0.01 μm NAA for S. candidum and S. sessiliflorum. Adventitious roots were produced directly from leaf explants with 0-140 μm kinetin and 0-5.7μm IAA in combination. Rooted plants were successfully established in the greenhouse. Key words: naranjilla, organogenesis, Solanum candidum, Solanum qultoense, Solanum sessiliforum, tissue culture Article: INTRODUCTION The naranjilla (Solanum quitoense Lam.) is a large, lignescent perennial that is cultivated for the juice of its fruit in Andean South America and in some Central American countries [13]. Its cultivation is severely limited by climatic requirements and susceptibility to diseases and pests, particularly the rootknot nematode [6].

El objetivo de este trabajo fue identificar las plantas hospederas de larvas Ithomiini (Lepidoptera) en agroecosistemas de café y evaluar el efecto de las variables: sistema de producción, área en bosque y diversidad de hospederas sobre la diversidad y abundancia de este grupo. En seis fincas de café de Fredonia (Antioquia), Colombia, se recolectaron plantas de las familias Apocynaceae, Gesneriaceae y Solanaceae, que fueron identificadas en los Herbarios HUA y MEDEL de Medellín. En las fincas se registraron los adultos observados en vuelo y se recolectaron huevos, larvas y pupas de Ithomiini de sus plantas hospederas para su cría en laboratorio, hasta la emergencia de adultos. Se determinó el porcentaje de sobrevivencia y mortalidad debida a parasitoidismo. Los datos de diversidad se analizaron por medio de un Análisis de Regresión de Poisson. En los agroecosistemas de café se registraron 27 especies vegetales y 27 mariposas adultas Ithomiini, en laboratorio, se criaron 326 individuos de ocho especies, recolectados sobre siete plantas de la familia Solanaceae.

In the present study, we report in vitro culture protocols for naranjilla apical buds, hypocotyls and petioles. In apical bud culture, MS medium supplemented with 0.10 mg l−1 1-naphtaleneacetic acid (NAA) produced longer plantlets with greater number of leaves. Hypocotyl culture yielded higher number of shoots when using older explants in MS medium supplemented with different combinations of NAA, 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) and gibberellic acid (GA3). Petiole culture produced a significantly higher number of shoots per explant, with more abundant and bigger leaves, when using MS medium −1 −1 −1 supplemented with 0.02 mg l NAA, 4.50 mg l BAP and 1.00 mg l GA3.

Solanum section Cyphomandropsis (Solanaceae) includes 13 species native to South Amer ica. Plants of this section are woody shrubs to small trees that lack spines, are glabrous to pubescent with un branched or dendritically branched trichomes, and have tapered anthers with small terminal pores. Section Cyphomandropsis is closely related to Solanum sect. Pachyphylla (formerly genus Cyphomandra), from which it differs by lacking discrete, enlarged connectives on the abaxial anther surfaces.
