This work uses metagenomic sequencing, for assessing the rhizosphere of the only reported terrestrial mangrove fern Acrostichum aureum Linn. from the Indian Sunderbans. Targeted sequencing of the V3 - V4 region using Illumina Hiseq was performed and the analyses of the sequenced files revealed the presence of a wide variety of microbial members with the highest belonging to Proteobacteria superphyla. We believe that this is the first phylogenetic assessment of the Fern rhizosphere and should provide us with valuable insights into the quality of microbial assemblage available in this particular niche. KEY WORDS Fern Metagenomics, Rhizosphere, Phylogenetic Analyses, KRAKEN. INTRODUCTION: for example - biofilm production, conjugation and The soil around the roots of plants was defined as the symbiosis and virulence (Miller and Bassler 2001) rhizosphere which has gained importance due to the Mangrove forests are classified into six distinct presence of both growth promoting and pathogenic categories.

O. Chidambaram College, Tuticorin – 628008, Tamil Nadu, India. Abstract The physicochemical parameters are mainly used in judging the purity of the drug. Hence, in the present investigation, moisture content, total ash, water-soluble ash, acid-soluble ash, sulphated ash and different solvent extractive values are determined. Preliminary screening of phytochemicals is a valuable step, in the detection of the bioactive principles present in medicinal plants and subsequently, may lead to drug discovery and development. In the present study, chief phytoconstituents of the Acrostichum aureum L (Fern) medicinal plant of the Pteridaceae family were identified to relate their presence with bioactivities of the plants. These research findings highlight that methanolic extracts of A. aureum leaves had the highest number of phytochemicals compared to other solvent extracts. Hence, methanolic extracts of A. aureum leaves holds the great potential to treat various human diseases and has profound medical applicability. Fluorescence analysis of powder under visible light and UV light helps establish the purity of the drug. Hence, fluorescence analysis of leaf powder is undertaken. Key words: Acrostichum aureum L., Pteridophytes, Physicochemical, Phytochemical Screening, Fluorescence Analysis.

Abstract The fern genus Tectaria has generally been placed in the family Tectariaceae or in subfamily Tectarioideae (placed in Dennstaedtiaceae, Dryopteridaceae or Polypodiaceae), both of which have been variously circumscribed in the past. Here we study for the first time the phylogenetic relationships of the associated genera Hypoderris (endemic to the Caribbean), Cionidium (endemic to New Caledonia) and Pseudotectaria (endemic to Madagascar and Comoros) using DNA sequence data. Based on a broad sampling of 72 species of eupolypods I (= Polypodiaceae sensu lato) and three plastid DNA regions (atpA, rbcL and the trnL-F intergenic spacer) we were able to place the three previously unsampled genera.

  • Ferns, Cycads, Conifers and Vascular Plants
    Flora of Australia Glossary — Ferns, Cycads, Conifers and Vascular plants A main glossary for the Flora of Australia was published in Volume 1 of both printed editions (1981 and 1999). Other volumes contain supplementary glossaries, with specific terms needed for particular families. This electronic glossary is a synthesis of all hard-copy Flora of Australia glossaries and supplementary glossaries published to date. The first Flora of Australia glossary was compiled by Alison McCusker. Mary D. Tindale compiled most of the fern definitions, and the conifer definitions were provided by Ken D. Hill. Russell L. Barrett combined all of these to create the glossary presented here, incorporating additional terms from the printed version of Volume 37. This electronic glossary contains terms used in all volumes, but with particular reference to the flowering plants (Volumes 2–50). This glossary will be updated as future volumes are published. It is the standard to be used by authors compiling future taxon treatments for the Flora of Australia. It also comprises the terms used in Species Plantarum — Flora of the World. Alternative terms For some preferred terms (in bold), alternative terms are also highlighted (in parentheses). For example, apiculum is the preferred term, and (=apiculus) is an alternative. Preferred terms are those also used in Species Plantarum — Flora of the World. © Copyright Commonwealth of Australia, 2017.

  • Fern Classification
    16 Fern classification ALAN R. SMITH, KATHLEEN M. PRYER, ERIC SCHUETTPELZ, PETRA KORALL, HARALD SCHNEIDER, AND PAUL G. WOLF 16.1 Introduction and historical summary / Over the past 70 years, many fern classifications, nearly all based on morphology, most explicitly or implicitly phylogenetic, have been proposed. The most complete and commonly used classifications, some intended primar• ily as herbarium (filing) schemes, are summarized in Table 16.1, and include: Christensen (1938), Copeland (1947), Holttum (1947, 1949), Nayar (1970), Bierhorst (1971), Crabbe et al. (1975), Pichi Sermolli (1977), Ching (1978), Tryon and Tryon (1982), Kramer (in Kubitzki, 1990), Hennipman (1996), and Stevenson and Loconte (1996). Other classifications or trees implying relationships, some with a regional focus, include Bower (1926), Ching (1940), Dickason (1946), Wagner (1969), Tagawa and Iwatsuki (1972), Holttum (1973), and Mickel (1974). Tryon (1952) and Pichi Sermolli (1973) reviewed and reproduced many of these and still earlier classifica• tions, and Pichi Sermolli (1970, 1981, 1982, 1986) also summarized information on family names of ferns. Smith (1996) provided a summary and discussion of recent classifications. With the advent of cladistic methods and molecular sequencing techniques, there has been an increased interest in classifications reflecting evolutionary relationships. Phylogenetic studies robustly support a basal dichotomy within vascular plants, separating the lycophytes (less than 1 % of extant vascular plants) from the euphyllophytes (Figure 16.l; Raubeson and Jansen, 1992, Kenrick and Crane, 1997; Pryer et al., 2001a, 2004a, 2004b; Qiu et al., 2006). Living euphyl• lophytes, in turn, comprise two major clades: spermatophytes (seed plants), which are in excess of 260 000 species (Thorne, 2002; Scotland and Wortley, Biology and Evolution of Ferns and Lycopliytes, ed.

DISTRIBUTION Three genera and c. 15 species in East Asia, Malesia and Pacific Islands; one genus in all parts of the moist tropics. NOTE According to Smith et al. (2006) Dryopteridaceae, is almost certainly monophyletic, if Didymochlaena, Hypodematium, and Leucostegia are excluded. Schuettpelz & Pryer (2008) included for the first time all three genera in one analysis. They confirmed the conclusion of Smith et al. (2006), and concluded that Didymochlaena, Hypodematium, and Leucostegia should indeed be segregated from Dryopteridaceae because including them would render that family paraphyletic. References: E.

  • Rare and Threatened Pteridophytes of Asia 2. Endangered Species of India — the Higher IUCN Categories
    Bull. Natl. Mus. Nat. Sci., Ser. B, 38(4), pp. 153–181, November 22, 2012 Rare and Threatened Pteridophytes of Asia 2. Endangered Species of India — the Higher IUCN Categories Christopher Roy Fraser-Jenkins Student Guest House, Thamel. P.O. Box no. 5555, Kathmandu, Nepal E-mail: [email protected] (Received 19 July 2012; accepted 26 September 2012) Abstract A revised list of 337 pteridophytes from political India is presented according to the six higher IUCN categories, and following on from the wider list of Chandra et al. (2008). This is nearly one third of the total c. 1100 species of indigenous Pteridophytes present in India. Endemics in the list are noted and carefully revised distributions are given for each species along with their estimated IUCN category. A slightly modified update of the classification by Fraser-Jenkins (2010a) is used. Phanerophlebiopsis balansae (Christ) Fraser-Jenk. et Baishya and Azolla filiculoi- des Lam. subsp. cristata (Kaulf.) Fraser-Jenk., are new combinations. Key words : endangered, India, IUCN categories, pteridophytes. The total number of pteridophyte species pres- gered), VU (Vulnerable) and NT (Near threat- ent in India is c. 1100 and of these 337 taxa are ened), whereas Chandra et al.’s list was a more considered to be threatened or endangered preliminary one which did not set out to follow (nearly one third of the total). It should be the IUCN categories until more information realised that IUCN listing (IUCN, 2010) is became available. The IUCN categories given organised by countries and the global rarity and here apply to political India only.
