According to previous studies, the northern species, present in Europe and the Mediterranean, form a paraphyletic, basal clade, and the southern species, present in South Africa, form a robust monophyletic group. In this work a molecular phylogenetic analysis from European and from Central and South African Erica species was performed using the chloroplast regions: trnL-trnL-trnF and 5´trnK-matK , as well as the nuclear DNA marker ITS, in order i) to state the monophyly of the northern and southern species, ii) to determine the phylogenetic relationships between the species and contrasting them with previous systematic research studies and iii) to compare the results provided from nuclear data and explore possible evolutionary patterns. All species were monophyletic except for the widely spread E. arborea , and E. manipuliflora . The paraphyly of the northern species was also confirmed, but three taxa from Central East Africa were polyphyletic, suggesting different episodes of colonization of this area.

  • Properties of Trunk and Briarwood of Tree Heath (Erica Arborea L.) From
    Properties of trunk and briarwood of tree heath ( Erica arborea L.) from island Rab Slavko Govor čin 1, Tomislav Sinkovi ć1, Tomislav Sedlar 1, Bogoslav Šefc 2, Iva Ištok 2 1,2 Department for wood science, Faculty of Forestry, University of Zagreb, Croatia, [email protected] , [email protected] , [email protected] , [email protected] , [email protected] ABSTRACT Tree heath (Erica arborea L.) is an evergreen shrub that grows mainly in Mediterranean region. This species tends to grow in areas such as macchia shrub lands, dry evergreen scrublands, forest roadsides and forest outskirts which have a lot of light and sun though daytime. Tree heath is not a commercial timber species, it occurs as a result of forest roads and forest fireroads construction. This wood species is interesting because of its briarwood. Briarwood is tumour like outgrow that develops between root and trunk and it’s commonly used in making bowls of tobacco smoking pipes and knife handles. The trunk can also be used for variety of products because of its relatively good mechanical properties and nice colour and texture. Material for this study was taken from tree heath ( Erica arborea L.) shrubs growing on island of Rab in Croatia. In this study density and dimensional stability of briarwood and trunk of tree heath were investigated . Also some mechanical properties of trunk such as bending strength and compression strength parallel to the grain were studied. Key words: Tree heath ( Erica arborea L.), briarwood, trunk, physical properties, mechanical properties AIM OF RESEARCH Knowing technological characteristics of wood is important postulate for rational usage of wood recourses.

The stamens are in whorls of four or five and Hugely useful in the garden, this family of mainly woody plants includes the heathers the pollen is released from the anthers by (Calluna, Erica, Daboecia), azaleas, rhododendrons, wintergreens (Gaultheria), way of pores at the tips. Pieris and mountain laurels (Kalmia). Commercially significant crops include Fruit blueberries and cranberries (Vaccinium). Fruits are typically dry capsules, though fleshy Size Origins fruits, such as blueberries, are not uncommon. One of the larger families, the Ericaceae contains Earliest evidence of this family dates to the Late Leaves over 3,850 species. Within this great diversity are Cretaceous (about 90 million years ago). Fossils many small genera with one or two species, and suggest that Ericaceae was once more diverse in Most Ericaceae have evergreen, alternate leaves and Vaccinium corymbosum, three titans; Rhododendron (with 1,000 species), Europe, which was home to genera now restricted no stipules. Some species, such as many azaleas, highbush blueberry Erica (850 species) and Vaccinium (500 species). to Asia and/or America. are deciduous, while opposite and whorled leaf It should be noted that azaleas are included arrangements are also known. Leaf margins are within Rhododendron. Flowers entire, toothed or curled under, and some species USES FOR THIS FAMILY (including many rhododendrons) have dense hair Great floral diversity is encompassed by this or scales on the lower surfaces.

  • Plant Profile
    Plant Profile Botanical Name: Erica spp. & cvs Common Name: Heath or Heather FAMILY NAME: Ericaceae Species and cultivars of special interest: Erica Sessifolia, Erica hybrida There are approximately 860 species of flowering plants in the family Eericaceae. They come in white, red, pink and green in colour. Origin: South Africa Availability: All year round although main profusion is Autumn, Winter and Spring Foliage Characteristics: It is a strong growing shrub 1-2 mt high with woody branches. It has needle like leaves pointing in an upward direction. Floral Characteristics: These flowers are tube/bell shaped flowers, which are approximately 15-20mm long. They have no fragrance; the colour range is white, red, and pink, green. Special features and characteristics of special interest: Most species can be raised from seed; they also have very small seeds and in some species may persist in the soil for decades. They grow well in raised beds; they dislike animal manure and lime. Maintenance, Cultural requirements and Post Harvest Treatments: Leaves and flowers dry out easily or often drop prematurely so keep well hydrated. Remove bottom leaves, re-cut stems and place in fresh water with flower food solution. Do not place in cool room. Pest and Diseases: They have few diseases and generally no insects affect this plant, however it can be affected by Phytopthora root disease. Use In Floristry: This is a good transitional flower suitable for vases and use in floral foam. Also can be great in a bouquet if well conditioned as it can make a nice edge around bouquets. It is excellent to use in wreaths and funeral sheafs.
