  • Grass Genera in Townsville
    Grass Genera in Townsville Nanette B. Hooker Photographs by Chris Gardiner SCHOOL OF MARINE and TROPICAL BIOLOGY JAMES COOK UNIVERSITY TOWNSVILLE QUEENSLAND James Cook University 2012 GRASSES OF THE TOWNSVILLE AREA Welcome to the grasses of the Townsville area. The genera covered in this treatment are those found in the lowland areas around Townsville as far north as Bluewater, south to Alligator Creek and west to the base of Hervey’s Range. Most of these genera will also be found in neighbouring areas although some genera not included may occur in specific habitats. The aim of this book is to provide a description of the grass genera as well as a list of species. The grasses belong to a very widespread and large family called the Poaceae. The original family name Gramineae is used in some publications, in Australia the preferred family name is Poaceae. It is one of the largest flowering plant families of the world, comprising more than 700 genera, and more than 10,000 species. In Australia there are over 1300 species including non-native grasses. In the Townsville area there are more than 220 grass species. The grasses have highly modified flowers arranged in a variety of ways. Because they are highly modified and specialized, there are also many new terms used to describe the various features. Hence there is a lot of terminology that chiefly applies to grasses, but some terms are used also in the sedge family. The basic unit of the grass inflorescence (The flowering part) is the spikelet. The spikelet consists of 1-2 basal glumes (bracts at the base) that subtend 1-many florets or flowers.

  • Ethnobotanical Usages of Grasses in Central Punjab-Pakistan
    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research, Volume 4, Issue 9, September-2013 452 ISSN 2229-5518 Ethnobotanical Usages of Grasses in Central Punjab-Pakistan Arifa Zereen, Tasveer Zahra Bokhari & Zaheer-Ud-Din Khan ABSTRACT- Poaceae (Gramineae) constitutes the second largest family of monocotyledons, having great diversity and performs an important role in the lives of both man and animals. The present study was carried out in eight districts (viz., Pakpattan, Vehari, Lahore, Nankana Sahib, Faisalabad, Sahiwal, Narowal and Sialkot) of Central Punjab. The area possesses quite rich traditional background which was exploited to get information about ethnobotanical usage of grasses. The ethnobotanical data on the various traditional uses of the grasses was collected using a semi- structured questionnaire. A total of 51 species of grasses belonging to 46 genera were recorded from the area. Almost all grasses were used as fodder, 15% were used for medicinal purposes in the area like for fever, stomach problems, respiratory tract infections, high blood pressure etc., 06% for roof thatching and animal living places, 63% for other purposes like making huts, chicks, brooms, baskets, ladders stabilization of sand dunes. Index Terms: Ethnobotany, Grasses, Poaceae, Fodder, Medicinal Use, Central Punjab —————————— —————————— INTRODUCTION Poaceae or the grass family is a natural homogenous group purposes. Chaudhari et al., [9] studied ethnobotanical of plants, containing about 50 tribes, 660 genera and 10,000 utilization of grasses in Thal Desert, Pakistan. During this species [1], [2]. In Pakistan Poaceae is represented by 158 study about 29 species of grasses belonging to 10 tribes genera and 492 species [3].They are among the most were collected that were being utilized for 10 different cosmopolitan of all flowering plants.

  • TAXONOMIC STUDIES and GENERIC DELIMITATION in the GRASS SUBTRIBE Sorghinae
    TAXONOMIC STUDIES AND GENERIC DELIMITATION IN THE GRASS SUBTRIBE Sorghinae. Moffat Pinkie Setshogo A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Edinburgh March 1997 Dedicated to the memory of my father, Tonkana, and to my mother, Kerileng. Acknowledgements. This work was carried out under the supervision of Dr. P.M. Smith. I wish to express my sincere gratitude to him for the advice and assistance throughout the progress of the study. I also want to thank Dr. C.E. Jeffree who has been very supportive and proof read a substantial portion of the thesis. I am indebted to the University of Botswana for the financial support and for offering me a study leave to enable me to carry out this study. The work was carried out at the Department of Botany, University of Edinburgh, as well as at the Royal Botanic Garden, Edinburgh. I would like to extend my thanks to the authorities of both institutions, and their staff, who offered help in many ways. My collection of living material was cared for by Messrs Billy Adams and Bob Astles. I wish to thank them for their help. My thanks also go to members of the photographic unit of ICMB, particularly John Anthony, Dave Haswell and Frank Johnston, for their help. Mr. John Findlay (Botany Department) gave me guidance with my SEM work, for which I am grateful. I am indebted to the Directors of various herbaria who loaned me specimens. Helen Hoy and Marisa Main were in charge of the Edinburgh side of these loans.

Accepted 28 May, 2010 In the present investigations, 13 species of grasses belonging to 10 genera of tribe Andropogoneae (Poaceae) were collected from salt range area of Pakistan. The purpose of the study is to identify and differentiate the grasses on the basis of leaf anatomical characters, at the specific and generic level within the tribe. Variations are observed in different characters of T.S. of leaf (presence and absence of sclerenchyma girders or strands, ribs, furrows and prickles adaxially and abaxially in different species), which are valuable in taxonomy and identification and differentiation of grasses of tribe Andropogoneae. The studies showed that Dicanthium foveolatum and Saccharum spontaneum are differentiated by anchor shaped abaxial and anchor shaped sclerenchyma girders, while the presence of large air spaces in the mesophyll of S. spontaneum and Vetiveria zizanoides makes them distinct from other species of the tribe. Bulliform cells in irregular and fan shaped groups and radial arrangement of chlorenchyma cells around the vascular bundles is the characteristic of all the species of the tribe, showing panicoid type of leaf with kranz type of anatomy.
