Steud.]. Callus induction was observed at majority levels of plant growth regulators, however, profuse callus induction was observed on MS medium supplemented with 0.25 and 0.5 mg/l BAP alone and in combination 0.5 mg/l (BAP) + 2.5 mg/l (IAA). The shoot morphogenesis was observed in callus when incubated at 0.5 mg/l (BAP) + 2.5 mg/l (IAA), upon subculture on same levels of plant growth regulator. De novo shoot organogenesis from callus cultures were observed with 50 – 60 % frequency. Photoperiod regime 14:10 was found best for shoot bud and callus induction. Highest root induction was observed on 0.5 mg/l IAA under in vitro proliferated shoot with 100 % frequency. Key words: Gliricidia, callus induction, regeneration, plant growth regulator.

Advances in Legume Systematics, part 10, Higher Level Systematics, pp. 5–35. Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. RECONSTRUCTING THE PHYLOGENY OF LEGUMES (LEGUMINOSAE): AN EARLY 21ST CENTURY PERSPECTIVE MARTIN F. WOJCIECHOWSKI Department of Plant Biology, Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona 85287 USA Abstract Elucidating the phylogenetic relationships of the legumes is essential for understanding the evolutionary history of events that underlie the origin and diversification of this family of ecologically and economically important flowering plants. In the ten years since the Third International Legume Conference (1992), the study of legume phylogeny using molecular data has advanced from a few tentative inferences based on relatively few, small datasets into an era of large, increasingly multiple gene analyses that provide greater resolution and confidence, as well as a few surprises. Reconstructing the phylogeny of the Leguminosae and its close relatives will further advance our knowledge of legume biology and facilitate comparative studies of plant structure and development, plant-animal interactions, plant-microbial symbiosis, and genome structure and dynamics. Phylogenetic relationships of Leguminosae — what has been accomplished since ILC-3? The Leguminosae (Fabaceae), with approximately 720 genera and more than 18,000 species worldwide (Lewis et al., in press) is the third largest family of flowering plants (Mabberley, 1997). Although greater in terms of the diversity of forms and number of habitats in which they reside, the family is second only perhaps to Poaceae (the grasses) in its agricultural and economic importance, and includes species used for foods, oils, fibre, fuel, timber, medicinals, numerous chemicals, cultivated horticultural varieties, and soil enrichment.

S. A. 3 Author for correspondence ([email protected]) Communicating Editor: Mark P. Simmons Abstract— Three woody species of Coursetia from eastern Brazil are here classified into the Rostrata clade, Coursetia caatingicola , C. rostrata , and C. vicioides . All come from the Southern Sertaneja Depression of the caatinga, and the first of these is herein described. The antiquity of this geographically confined clade is suggested by its phylogenetic isolation within Coursetia and minimum age estimates of about 9 Ma for each of the species stem clades and about 17 Ma for the Rostrata stem. These age estimates were biased young and are associated with ITS rates of substitution of about 2–3 × 10 −9 substitutions per site per year, an expected rate for woody plant lineages. Multiple DNA sequence accessions coalesce with respect to nuclear ribosomal 5.8S and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences for Coursetia caatingicola and C. rostrata , and with respect to chloroplast trnD-T sequences for Coursetia caatingicola . Coalescence of conspecific nuclear DNA sequence samples combined with relatively old minimum age estimates are suggestive of the evolutionary stability of local patches of seasonally dry tropical vegetation that are rich in succulent taxa.

It is native to the southeastern United States, but has been widely planted and naturalized elsewhere in temperate North America, Black Locust Europe, Southern Africa [1] and Asia and is considered an invasive species in some areas. A less frequently used common name is False Acacia , which is a literal translation of the specific epithet. It was introduced into Britain in 1636.

Apologies for the delay in getting this issue to you. A lot has been going on, including submission of papers to the forthcoming Advances in Legume Systematics 13. As you will see, this is another long issue. And finally, now we have a new BB webpage, although it is currently undergoing a change into a new layout expected to go live very soon. A lot has been going on in 2018 in the legume world, as it is usual for such a large and fascinating family! This issue starts by having a look at the BB Website and issues online. Afterwards, we will look at “Reports from the legume world” with beautiful images of Flemingia species from India, and go back into 2018, with the International Legume Conference in Sendai, Japan, and some looks into 2019. Several beautiful photographs of legumes from all over the world will delight you. And also those of the Australian Pilbara region with its Vigna species. In conclusion, as always, you’ll find the traditional list of legume bibliography. Despite the new webpage, the Bean Bag Newsletter is still sent out through the BB Google Group, which is the only purpose of this google group.
