  • Well-Known Plants in Each Angiosperm Order
    Well-known plants in each angiosperm order This list is generally from least evolved (most ancient) to most evolved (most modern). (I’m not sure if this applies for Eudicots; I’m listing them in the same order as APG II.) The first few plants are mostly primitive pond and aquarium plants. Next is Illicium (anise tree) from Austrobaileyales, then the magnoliids (Canellales thru Piperales), then monocots (Acorales through Zingiberales), and finally eudicots (Buxales through Dipsacales). The plants before the eudicots in this list are considered basal angiosperms. This list focuses only on angiosperms and does not look at earlier plants such as mosses, ferns, and conifers. Basal angiosperms – mostly aquatic plants Unplaced in order, placed in Amborellaceae family • Amborella trichopoda – one of the most ancient flowering plants Unplaced in order, placed in Nymphaeaceae family • Water lily • Cabomba (fanwort) • Brasenia (watershield) Ceratophyllales • Hornwort Austrobaileyales • Illicium (anise tree, star anise) Basal angiosperms - magnoliids Canellales • Drimys (winter's bark) • Tasmanian pepper Laurales • Bay laurel • Cinnamon • Avocado • Sassafras • Camphor tree • Calycanthus (sweetshrub, spicebush) • Lindera (spicebush, Benjamin bush) Magnoliales • Custard-apple • Pawpaw • guanábana (soursop) • Sugar-apple or sweetsop • Cherimoya • Magnolia • Tuliptree • Michelia • Nutmeg • Clove Piperales • Black pepper • Kava • Lizard’s tail • Aristolochia (birthwort, pipevine, Dutchman's pipe) • Asarum (wild ginger) Basal angiosperms - monocots Acorales

The purpose of the guide is to provide the necessary information about variety selection, planting requirements, and plant care that growers will need to make informed decisions. This guide will look at blackcurrants, red currants (including white and pink, which are of the same species as reds), and gooseberries. While not all varieties are included in this guide, we cover those that seem to have the most potential for the North American market. Common varieties such as Pixwell, Oregon Champion, Colossal (gooseberries), Consort, Ben Nevis, Crandall, Ben Lomond, Ben Alder (black currants) have been surpassed by the introduction of varieties that combine higher yields, better disease resistance and superior fruit qualities. In future editions of this guide we will discuss new and relevant varieties as they are made available, as well as updated information on yields, pests, and information from the plant trials that will be taking place across North America.

  • Antioxidants During Your Radiation Therapy
    Form: D-5021 What You Need to Know About Taking Antioxidants During Your Radiation Therapy For patients getting radiation therapy Read this brochure to know: • should you take antioxidants during radiation treatment • which vitamins and supplements are safe to take during radiation therapy • what are food sources with antioxidants • where to get more information What are antioxidants? Antioxidants are nutrients found in some foods and also in supplements such as pills. Antioxidants help your body protect your cells from damage and help your body repair damage to your cells. They are good for normal cells because they help repair and prevent damage. Should I take antioxidants during radiation therapy? The goal of radiation therapy is to damage your cancer cells. Antioxidants may prevent your radiation treatment from being as effective because they may protect your cancer cells. Avoid taking large amounts of antioxidants during your radiation therapy treatment. Avoid taking these antioxidant pills in large amounts such as: • vitamin C • vitamin E • beta carotene • selenium Look at the side of your supplement or multivitamin bottle to check the amount of antioxidants. Below is a table of safe amounts of antioxidants you can take while having treatment. Do not take more than the amount listed. Name of antioxidant Do NOT take more than: Vitamin C 90 milligrams per day for men 75 mg per day for women Vitamin E natural Vitamin E (d-alpha- 22 IU per day tocopherol) synthetic Vitamin E (dl- 33 IU per day alpha-tocopherol) Selenium 55 micrograms per day Beta carotene Avoid because there is no safe level IU = International Unit 2 The safe amounts of antioxidants listed in the table come from Health Canada.

This study was the first time in Russia to carry out a large-scale (127 samples) assessment of the diverse gene pool of black currant and red currant, the study of intervarietal polymorphism between varieties of the Ribes L. genus from the VNIISPK collection. A cluster analysis of the genetic similarity of black currant varieties (53 varieties), red currant (73 varieties) and one gooseberry variety was performed using 14 SSR markers. Based on the data obtained, a dendrogram was built, in which a number of clusters with high bootstrap support (BS, %) were distinguished. At BS>50%, the coefficients of pairwise genetic similarity between varieties varied from 0.4 to 0.91. The studied representatives of the Ribes genus merged into two main clusters of red currant and black currant. The blackcurrant cluster was joined by gooseberries. The SSR analysis method allows to reveal broad perspectives in the field of identifying varieties affiliation to species. 1 Introduction Currant became known to people quite a long time ago. The first records of black currant were made in the 17th century in the United States by herbalists who drew attention to the medicinal properties of the shrub's fruits and leaves [1]. In wildlife conditions, all Ribes L.

Foliar application of nutrients is considered a promising environmentally friendly strategy for improving the yield and nutrient efficiency of crops. Little work with foliar appliances on perennial fruits bushes, blackcurrant (Ribes nigrum L.), respectively, has been reported. This study was conducted to evaluate the growth and yield response of three blackcurrant varieties to macro and micronutrients’ foliar fertilizer solutions.

Due to their polymeric character they can cause thickening after mashing of the berries and cause problems during extraction and clarification of fruit juices. Therefore, commercial enzyme preparations are used to degrade cell wall polysaccharides during processing. However, the berry cell wall composition of berries has never been studied in detail.
