Evolutionary and Comparative Analyses of the Soybean Genome
Breeding Science 61: 437–444 (2012) doi:10.1270/jsbbs.61.437 Review Evolutionary and comparative analyses of the soybean genome Steven B. Cannon* and Randy C. Shoemaker United States Department of Agriculture–Agricultural Research Service, Corn Insects and Crop Genetics Research Unit, Ames, IA 50011, USA The soybean genome assembly has been available since the end of 2008. Significant features of the genome include large, gene-poor, repeat-dense pericentromeric regions, spanning roughly 57% of the genome se- quence; a relatively large genome size of ~1.15 billion bases; remnants of a genome duplication that occurred ~13 million years ago (Mya); and fainter remnants of older polyploidies that occurred ~58 Mya and >130 Mya. The genome sequence has been used to identify the genetic basis for numerous traits, including disease resistance, nutritional characteristics, and developmental features. The genome sequence has provided a scaffold for placement of many genomic feature elements, both from within soybean and from related spe- cies. These may be accessed at several websites, including http://www.phytozome.net, http://soybase.org, http://comparative-legumes.org, and http://www.legumebase.brc.miyazaki-u.ac.jp. The taxonomic position of soybean in the Phaseoleae tribe of the legumes means that there are approximately two dozen other beans and relatives that have undergone independent domestication, and which may have traits that will be useful for transfer to soybean. Methods of translating information between species in the Phaseoleae range from de- sign of markers for marker assisted selection, to transformation with Agrobacterium or with other experi- mental transformation methods.

(Pueraria Montana Var. Lobata Willd) in North Carolina
ABSTRACT THORNTON, MELISSA ROSE. Arthopod Fauna Associated With Kudzu (Pueraria montana var. lobata Willd) In North Carolina. (Under the direction of David Orr.) The purpose of this research was to obtain background information to aid the implementation of a biological control program against the weed, kudzu (Pueraria montana var. lobata Willd). This research had several specific objectives that examined: 1) potential insect pollinators and seed production of kudzu in NC; 2) phytophagous insects and insect herbivory of kudzu foliage, seeds, vines and roots in NC; 3) abundance and diversity of foliar, vine, and root feeding insect communities on kudzu in comparison with those found on soybeans, the closest North American relative of kudzu in the United States. Kudzu is pollinated by native and naturalized insects in NC, in a pattern that varies by flower apparency rather than density. Arthropod herbivory by native generalists almost eliminated kudzu seed viability, while a naturalized Asian specialist consumed a nominal proportion of seeds. These data indicate that seed feeding arthropods would be poor candidates for importation biological control. Kudzu and soybeans shared the same foliar feeding insect communities and levels of defoliation, suggesting that foliage feeders are also poor choices for importation. No kudzu vine or root feeding insects or damage were found during the two years of this study, suggesting that future importation biological control research should focus on such feeders from Asia.

Desmodium Cuspidatum (Muhl.) Loudon Large-Bracted Tick-Trefoil
New England Plant Conservation Program Desmodium cuspidatum (Muhl.) Loudon Large-bracted Tick-trefoil Conservation and Research Plan for New England Prepared by: Lynn C. Harper Habitat Protection Specialist Massachusetts Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Program Westborough, Massachusetts For: New England Wild Flower Society 180 Hemenway Road Framingham, MA 01701 508/877-7630 e-mail: [email protected] • website: www.newfs.org Approved, Regional Advisory Council, 2002 SUMMARY Desmodium cuspidatum (Muhl.) Loudon (Fabaceae) is a tall, herbaceous, perennial legume that is regionally rare in New England. Found most often in dry, open, rocky woods over circumneutral to calcareous bedrock, it has been documented from 28 historic and eight current sites in the three states (Vermont, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts) where it is tracked by the Natural Heritage programs. The taxon has not been documented from Maine. In Connecticut and Rhode Island, the species is reported but not tracked by the Heritage programs. Two current sites in Connecticut are known from herbarium specimens. No current sites are known from Rhode Island. Although secure throughout most of its range in eastern and midwestern North America, D. cuspidatum is Endangered in Vermont, considered Historic in New Hampshire, and watch-listed in Massachusetts. It is ranked G5 globally. Very little is understood about the basic biology of this species. From work on congeners, it can be inferred that there are likely to be no problems with pollination, seed set, or germination. As for most legumes, rhizobial bacteria form nitrogen-fixing nodules on the roots of D. cuspidatum. It is unclear whether there have been any changes in the numbers or distribution of rhizobia capable of forming effective mutualisms with D. -

ISSN 0373-580 X Bol. Soc. Argent. Bot. 44 (1-2): 25 - 32. 2009 COMPARATIVE LEAF ANATOMY IN ARGENTINE GALACTIA SPECIES G. M. TOURN1, M. T. COSA 2 , G. G. ROITMAN 3 & M. P. SILVA 1 Summary: A comparative study of anatomical characters of the leaves of argentine species of Genera Galactia was carried out in order to evaluate their potential value in Taxonomy. In Argentine 14 species and some varieties from Sections Odonia and Collaearia can be found. Section Odonia: G. benthamiana Mich., G. dubia DC., G. fiebrigiana Burkart var. correntina Burkart, G. glaucophylla Harms, G. gracillima Benth., G. latisiliqua Desv., G. longifolia (Jacq.) Benth., G. marginalis Benth., G. striata (Jacq.) Urban, G. martioides Burkart, G. neesi D. C. var. australis Malme, G. pretiosa Burkart var. pretiosa, G. texana (Scheele) A. Gray and G. boavista (Vell.) Burkart from Section Collaearia. The characterization of sections is mainly based on reproductive characters, vegetative ones (exomorphological aspects) are scarcely considered. The present paper provides a description of anatomical characters of leaves in argentine species of Galactia. Some of them, may have diagnostic value in taxonomic treatment. Special emphasis is placed on the systematic significance of the midvein structure. The aim of the present study, covering 10 species (named in bold), is a) to add more data of leaf anatomy characters, thus b) to evaluate the systematic relevance and/ or ecological significance.

Received: February 27, 2019 Accepted: April 11, 2019 ABSTRACT: : The present study was carried out to examine salt-induced to effects of different concentrations (0, 40, 80 and 120mM) of salinity on horsegram [Macrotyloma uniflorum (Lam.) Verdc] plants grown in pots. The two horse gram varieties PAIYUR-2 and CO-1 were used for the study. Sampling was done on 15th Days After Treatment (DAT) and 30th DAT from control and salinity treated plants. The response of the horsegram plants to salinity stress was analyzed by estimating the levels of antioxidant enzyme activity. In addition, the activities of key antioxidative enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX) and glutathione reductase (GR) also significantly increased. The results indicated that plants of variety PAIYUR-2 exhibited higher adaptive potential under salinity stress as judged by increased antioxidative enzymes activities when compared to variety CO-1. From the results of this investigation, it may be concluded that plants of variety PAIYUR-2 have high adaptive potential under salinity when compared to variety CO-1. Key Words: Salt Stress, Antioxidant System, Horse gram, Osmotic stress INTRODUCTION Plants throughout their life cycle experience various types of environmental stresses (such as drought, salinity, high temperature, cold, heavy metal and other similar stresses) due to their sessile nature. -
Plant Pest Risk Assessment for Kudzu, Pueraria Montana 2010 (Revised 2013)
Oregon Department of Agriculture Plant Pest Risk Assessment for Kudzu, Pueraria montana 2010 (Revised 2013) Name: Kudzu, Pueraria montana; a.k.a. Japanese arrowroot, porch-vine, telephone vine; Synonym: Pueraria lobata Family: Pea, Fabaceae Findings of This Review and Assessment: Kudzu has been determined to be a category “A” noxious weed as defined by the Oregon Department of Agriculture (ODA) Noxious Weed Policy and Classification System. This determination is based on a literature review and analysis using two ODA evaluation forms. Using the Qualitative Noxious Weed Risk Assessment v.3.8, kudzu scored 63 indicating an A listing and score 17 with the ODA Noxious Weed Rating system, v.3.2. Introduction: Kudzu, Pueraria montana is a fast growing vine native to China and Japan. It was introduced and has become a major pest of the southeastern US where an estimated seven million acres are infested. Kudzu is a federally listed noxious weed and was placed on the ODA Noxious Weed List in 1995. Prior to the Oregon listing, the species was not known to occur in the Pacific Northwest. In1990 an inquiry was received by ODA to approve the importation and use of kudzu for forage. This inquiry prompted a review by ODA and ultimately a quarantine listing of kudzu in 1993 to prevent import, transport, or sale in the state. The first weedy infestation in the Pacific Northwest was found near Aurora, Oregon in 2001 and two additional sites were found in southwest Portland the following year. It was not determined how the plants where introduced, but was most likely intentionally planted as ornamental or for erosion control. -
