  • Adaptive Strategies of the Centrospermeae Species with Different Photosynthetic Systems in the Semi-Arid and Saline Areas in Mt
    Quest Journals Journal of Research in Agriculture and Animal Science Volume 5 ~ Issue 1 (2018) pp: 15-27 ISSN(Online) : 2321-9459 www.questjournals.org Research Paper Adaptive Strategies of the Centrospermeae Species with Different Photosynthetic Systems in the Semi-Arid and Saline Areas in Mt. Kulal - Mt. Elgon Habitats in Kenya. Stephen F. Sikolia1 1. Department of Botany, School of Physical Sciences and Biological Sciences, Maseno University, Kenya. Correspondence to: Stephen F. Sikolia ABSTRACT: Centrospermeae species were collected at different sites along gradient of altitude and aridity in the semi-arid, saline and arid habitats in western region of Kenya. δ13C values and Kranz leaf anatomy were used to examine for C3, C4 C3-C4 intermediate and Crassulacean metabolism (CAM) species photosynthesis. 13 ẟ C values and Kranz leaf anatomy were used to differentiate the C3 plant species from the C4 species. The C4, C3, C3-C4 and CAM species were confirmed to be present in the Centrospermeae group in different proportionate percentage. Interspecific species occur in the group. The morphological, anatomical, physiological and biochemical adaptive strategies of the C3, C4,C3-C4and CAM species of the Centrospermeae group are discussed. 13 KEY WORDS: Centrospermeae, C4, C3, C3-C4 species,δ C values, Kranz leaf anatomy,adaptive strategies I. INTRODUCTION There is consensus that C3 pathway evolved first and wide spread in terrestrial and aquatic species and habitats (Sikolia, Onyango, Beck and Kinyamario, 2009[1]). The C4 syndrome is phylogenetic younger achievement and apparently evolved independently in monocots and dicot perhaps as many as twenty times (Quade and Cerling, 1995[2]; Edwards, Franceschi and Voznesenskaya, 2004[3]; Edward, Furbank, Hatch and Osmond, 2001[4] [1] Sikolia, 2016[5]).

  • Foliar Behaviour of Biogenic Semi-Volatiles: Potential Applications in Sustainable Pest Management
    Arthropod-Plant Interactions https://doi.org/10.1007/s11829-019-09676-1 REVIEW PAPER Foliar behaviour of biogenic semi-volatiles: potential applications in sustainable pest management Adedayo O. Mofikoya1 · Thuy Nga T. Bui1 · Minna Kivimäenpää1 · Jarmo K. Holopainen1 · Sari J. Himanen2 · James D. Blande1 Received: 4 November 2018 / Accepted: 24 January 2019 © The Author(s) 2019 Abstract Plants emit an extremely diverse bouquet of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from their above-ground and below-ground parts. Emissions are constitutive or induced, e.g. by herbivores. VOCs can be classified as highly volatile, volatile and semi- volatile compounds. Sesquiterpenes (SQTs) are typical semi-volatile organic compounds (sVOCs) released by plants. Simi- larly, herbivore-induced homoterpenes and methyl salicylate also have relatively low volatility. SVOCs have a high boiling point (> 240 °C) and a vapour pressure below 0.005 kPa at 25 °C. Glandular trichomes on plant surfaces can store SQTs in mixtures with more volatile VOCs, which are released into the air by diffusion or after gland rupture. The sVOCs stored in glandular trichomes often have repellent effects on herbivores, while herbivore-induced sVOCs are known for their attractive- ness to natural enemies of herbivores, i.e. they act in indirect chemical defence of plants. Due to their low volatility, sVOCs produced by plants may easily adhere to the surfaces of emitter and neighbouring plants during the colder temperatures that plants face, e.g. at night. On the foliage of neighbouring receiver plants, sVOCs may act in direct and indirect defence of that plant species. When the temperature rises again, sVOCs are released into the atmosphere.
