A Phylogenetic Study of Amphicarpaea with a New Genus Afroamphica (Leguminosae Tribe Phaseoleae) J. Jpn.

In the present study, those results were reexamined in molecular phylogenetic analyses using chloroplast DNA and nuclear DNA (ITS). Our molecular data show that Shuteria africana is sister to the genus Amphicarpaea, and that A. ferruginea is sister to A. edgeworthii and A. bracteata within the genus. For a consistent systematic treatment with the discrepancy between the results of the pollen morphology and the present molecular study, a new monotypic genus Afroamphica is proposed for Shuteria africana.

Amphicarpaea was revised by Ohashi (Baker 1876) was placed in Amphicarpaea and Ohashi (2016) based mainly on pollen based on such evidence from pollen morphology morphology.

    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.

Ohashi & H. Ohashi, is proposed as a member of the tribe Phaseoleae of Leguminosae (Fabaceae) based on Shuteria hirsuta Baker by comparative morphological observation and molecular phylogenetic analysis of Shuteria and its related genera. Molecular phylogenetic analysis was performed using cpDNA (trnK/matK, trnL–trnF and rpl2 intron) markers. Our molecular phylogeny shows that Shuteria hirsuta is sister to Cologania and is distinct from Shuteria vestita or Amphicarpaea, although the species has been attributed to these genera. A new combination, Harashuteria hirsuta (Baker) K. Ohashi & H. Ohashi is proposed. Key words: Amphicarpaea, Cologania, Fabaceae, Glycininae, Harashuteria, Hiroshi Hara, new genus, Phaseoleae, Shuteria, Shuteria hirsuta. The genus Shuteria Wight & Arn. was protologue.

Thus, a replacement of these synthetics by antioxidant extractions from various foods has been proposed. More than 8000 different phenolic compounds have been characterized; fruits and vegetables are the prime sources of natural antioxidants. In order to extract, measure, and identify bioactive compounds from a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, researchers use multiple techniques and methods. This review includes a brief description of a wide range of different assays. The antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer properties of phenolic natural products from fruits and vegetables are also discussed. Keywords: antimicrobial; antioxidants; medicinal plants; BHT 1. Introduction Many antioxidant compounds can be found in fruits and vegetables including phenolics, carotenoids, anthocyanins, and tocopherols [1]. Approximately 20% of known plants have been used in pharmaceutical studies, impacting the healthcare system in positive ways such as treating cancer and harmful diseases [2].
