"National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment. -
PCA) Report Name Mosquito Range Site Code S.USCOHP*375
Level 4 Potential Conservation Area (PCA) Report Name Mosquito Range Site Code S.USCOHP*375 IDENTIFIERS Site ID 342 Site Class PCA Site Alias Mosquito Peaks Cirques Macrosite Site Alias Hoosier Ridge Macrosite Site Alias Tenmile Macrosite Site Alias Mosquito Peaks Megasite Network of Conservation Areas (NCA) NCA Site ID NCA Site Code NCA Site Name - No Data County SITE DESCRIPTION Site Description This site incorporates nearly the entire alpine area of the Mosquito Range. The predominant habitats are characterized by alpine meadows, rock outcrops, scree slopes, boulder fields, alpine lakes, willow carrs, snowmelt streamlets, and permanent snow fields. Snow melt flows down the north and south-facing slopes in intermittent drainages from the top of the ridges. The slopes are typified by tufted hairgrass / golden avens (Deschampsia cespitosa / Geum rossii) and kobresia / golden avens (Kobresia myosuroides / Geum rossii) communities, with scattered patches of willows (Salix glauca and Salix brachycarpa) and krummholz Engelmann spruce (Picea engelmannii). Moist areas with mossy ground cover provide the necessary habitat for Penland alpine fen mustard (Eutrema penlandii), which is one of the elements of primary importance in this site. This site supports an extraordinarily high concentration of rare plant species. To date, 20 globally rare plant species and several state rare species have been documented within this site. High elevation outcrops of Leadville Limestone are said to be a predominant factor in setting the stage for such high densities of rare plant species. Many of the rarest plants in this site, including Penland alpine fen mustard, are thought to be restricted to this geologic substrate. -

Furthermore, Hirano et al. to carboxylesterase (CXE). Here, we report the molecular evolution (5) reported that GID1s in the lycophyte Selaginella moellen- of GID1 from establishment to functionally diverse forms in dorffii (SmGID1s) have unique properties in comparison with eudicots. By introducing 18 mutagenized rice GID1s into a rice angiosperm GID1s: namely, lower affinity to bioactive GAs and gid1 null mutant, we identified the amino acids crucial for higher affinity to inactive GAs (lower specificity). -
Eutrema Salsugineum (Cruciferae) New to Mexico: a Surprising Generic

PhytoKeys 76: 13–21. https://doi.org/10.3897/phytokeys.76.9731 Abstract The paper reports Eutrema salsugineum as a novelty to the flora of Mexico and Middle America in general. The finding stands ca. 1600 km apart from the closest known locality in the Rocky Mountains of Colora- do, USA. The species is considered native to NW Mexico and its late discovery in the region is presumably explained by its tiny habit, early flowering time, and subephemeral life cycle. The phylogenetic position of this Mexican population in a haplotype network based on the chloroplast DNA fragment psbA-trnH confirms this hypothesis and also suggests, in contrast to the previously held viewpoint, multiple coloniza- tions of North American continent from Asia. -
