Jalal Aliyev was a distinguished and respected plant biologist of our time, a great teacher, and great human being. He was a pioneer of photosynthesis research in Azerbaijan. Academician Aliyev was deeply involved in dynamic research on several aspects of photosynthesis for 65 years; he focused mainly on the important crop wheat; this research was integrative in its approach, involving physiological, biophysical, biochemical, and the molecular-genetic bases of plant productivity, as well as on the production processes of the structural-functional organization of plants-from the molecular level to the whole plant. Jalal Aliyev instigated also the development of new directions of research, namely molecular biology, molecular genetics, gene and cellular biotechnology, mathematical and computational biology, and bioinformatics as applied to crop productivity in Azerbaijan. Today we are looking back and looking forward. The human population is increasing, which means that we need to improve crop productivity to maintain food security. Over the last century, plant breeding and modern agriculture have made large gains in productivity. However, this growth is not keeping pace with demand. If plant photosynthesis could be improved, this would provide breeders with a new tool to increase crop yields. This has been a major research focus over the last 20 years and significant progress has been made in understanding this process. However, crops with improved photosynthesis have yet to be successfully commercialized. Interdisciplinary teams may be vital for trend-setting new discoveries. New disciplines hold great promise for the advancement of research and development in complex biological and medical systems, agriculture, environment, public health, drug design. Research and development in different areas are impacting the science and technology in fields such as medicine, food production, forensics, etc. by advancing fundamental concepts in molecular biology, by helping us understand living organisms at multiple levels, by developing innovative implants and bio-prosthetics, and by improving tools and techniques for the detection, prevention and treatment of diseases. The conference, through its program, also seeks to reflect and address new challenges that come with new knowledge in human healthcare today. These topics take in this conference because emerging technologies in biology and agriculture eventually related to human healthcare. So, the aim of this conference is to bring together experts, novices, students and breeders to exchange and discuss their latest results in the fields of biology and agriculture. Conference topics will range from fundamental research to applications need for food security and healthcare programs. Organizers gives young attendees the opportunity to present early results of their research. Looking forward to seeing all of you in our conference.

  • What Is a Tree in the Mediterranean Basin Hotspot? a Critical Analysis
    Médail et al. Forest Ecosystems (2019) 6:17 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40663-019-0170-6 RESEARCH Open Access What is a tree in the Mediterranean Basin hotspot? A critical analysis Frédéric Médail1* , Anne-Christine Monnet1, Daniel Pavon1, Toni Nikolic2, Panayotis Dimopoulos3, Gianluigi Bacchetta4, Juan Arroyo5, Zoltán Barina6, Marwan Cheikh Albassatneh7, Gianniantonio Domina8, Bruno Fady9, Vlado Matevski10, Stephen Mifsud11 and Agathe Leriche1 Abstract Background: Tree species represent 20% of the vascular plant species worldwide and they play a crucial role in the global functioning of the biosphere. The Mediterranean Basin is one of the 36 world biodiversity hotspots, and it is estimated that forests covered 82% of the landscape before the first human impacts, thousands of years ago. However, the spatial distribution of the Mediterranean biodiversity is still imperfectly known, and a focus on tree species constitutes a key issue for understanding forest functioning and develop conservation strategies. Methods: We provide the first comprehensive checklist of all native tree taxa (species and subspecies) present in the Mediterranean-European region (from Portugal to Cyprus). We identified some cases of woody species difficult to categorize as trees that we further called “cryptic trees”. We collected the occurrences of tree taxa by “administrative regions”, i.e. country or large island, and by biogeographical provinces. We studied the species-area relationship, and evaluated the conservation issues for threatened taxa following IUCN criteria. Results: We identified 245 tree taxa that included 210 species and 35 subspecies, belonging to 33 families and 64 genera. It included 46 endemic tree taxa (30 species and 16 subspecies), mainly distributed within a single biogeographical unit.

    1998 THE MICHIGAN BOTANIST 107 OCCURRENCE OF EUROPEAN DEWBERRY, RUBUS CAESIUS (ROSACEAE), NATURALIZED IN IOWAAND MICHIGAN1 Mark P. Widrlechner Warren H. Wagner, Jr.2 USDA-Agricultural Research Service University of Michigan Herbarium North Central Regional Plant Introduction Station North University Building Iowa State University Ann Arbor, MI 48109-1057 Department of Agronomy Ames, IA 50011-1170 email: [email protected] INTRODUCTION In late September, 1998, Jimmie D. Thompson, a plant enthusiast, collected two inflorescences from a vigorous bramble near the North Central Regional Plant Introduction Station farm southwest of Ames, Iowa. The unusually late flowering and the atypically compound, corymbose form of the inflorescences suggested that his collection was not taken from a common North American Rubus L. A few weeks later, additional collections were made when the senior author accompanied Mr. Thompson to the site. By using the keys in Flora Eu- ropaea (Heslop-Harrison 1968) and Brambles of the British Isles (Edees & New- ton 1988) and consulting European Rubus specimens held in ISC3 and excellent illustrations in the Czech national flora, Kve˚tena Ceské Republiky (Holub 1995), and the Illustrated Companion to Gleason and Cronquist’s Manual (Holmgren 1998), the senior author determined the plants to be Rubus caesius L., the European dewberry. In 1990, the junior author observed an unusual bramble in the Waterloo Recreation Area about 32 km WNW of Ann Arbor, Michigan. It displayed cer- tain morphological characteristics that seemed intermediate between blackber- ries (Rubus subgenus Rubus) and raspberries (Rubus subgenus Idaeobatus Focke), such as pruinose, tip-rooting canes resembling R. occidentalis L., leafy, corymbose inflorescences, and very sparse fruit set, which might be related to hybrid sterility.

Monitoring plant distributions over large areas requires mapping that is fast, reliable, and repeatable. For Rubus, different types of data were successfully used for classification, but most of the studies used data with a very high spectral resolution. The aim of this study was to indicate, using hyperspectral and Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data, the main functional trait crucial for R. caesius differentiation from non-Rubus. This analysis was carried out with consideration of the seasonal variability and different percentages of R.

  • Piecing Together the Biogeographic History of Chenopodium Vulvaria L
    Piecing together the biogeographic history of Chenopodium vulvaria L. using botanical literature and collections Quentin J. Groom Botanic Garden Meise, Bouchout Domain, Meise, Belgium ABSTRACT This study demonstrates the value of legacy literature and historic collections as a source of data on environmental history. Chenopodium vulvaria L. has declined in northern Europe and is of conservation concern in several countries, whereas in other countries outside Europe it has naturalised and is considered an alien weed. In its European range it is considered native in the south, but the northern boundary of its native range is unknown. It is hypothesised that much of its former distribution in northern Europe was the result of repeated introductions from southern Europe and that its decline in northern Europe is the result of habitat change and a reduction in the number of propagules imported to the north. A historical analysis of its ecology and distribution was conducted by mining legacy literature and historical botanical collections. Text analysis of habitat descriptions written on specimens and published in botanical literature covering a period of more than 200 years indicate that the habitat and introduction pathways of C. vulvaria have changed with time. Using the non-European naturalised range in a climate niche model, it is possible to project the range in Europe. By comparing this predicted model with a similar model created from all observations, it is clear that there is a large discrepancy between the realized and predicted distributions. This is discussed together with the social, technological and economic changes that have occurred in northern Europe, with respect to their influence on C.
