    Peterson, P.M., K. Romaschenko, and Y. Herrera Arrieta. 2020. A phylogeny of the Hubbardochloinae including Tetrachaete (Poaceae: Chloridoideae: Cynodonteae). Phytoneuron 2020-81: 1–13. Published 18 November 2020. ISSN 2153 733 A PHYLOGENY OF THE HUBBARDOCHLOINAE INCLUDING TETRACHAETE (CYNODONTEAE: CHLORIDOIDEAE: POACEAE) PAUL M. PETERSON AND KONSTANTIN ROMASCHENKO Department of Botany National Museum of Natural History Smithsonian Institution Washington, D.C. 20013-7012 [email protected]; [email protected] YOLANDA HERRERA ARRIETA Instituto Politécnico Nacional CIIDIR Unidad Durango-COFAA Durango, C.P. 34220, México [email protected] ABSTRACT The phylogeny of subtribe Hubbardochloinae is revisited, here with the inclusion of the monotypic genus Tetrachaete, based on a molecular DNA analysis using ndhA intron, rpl32-trnL, rps16 intron, rps16- trnK, and ITS markers. Tetrachaete elionuroides is aligned within the Hubbardochloinae and is sister to Dignathia. The biogeography of the Hubbardochloinae is discussed, its origin likely in Africa or temperate Asia. In a previous molecular DNA phylogeny (Peterson et al. 2016), the subtribe Hubbardochloinae Auquier [Bewsia Gooss., Dignathia Stapf, Gymnopogon P. Beauv., Hubbardochloa Auquier, Leptocarydion Hochst. ex Stapf, Leptothrium Kunth, and Lophacme Stapf] was found in a clade with moderate support (BS = 75, PP = 1.00) sister to the Farragininae P.M. Peterson et al. In the present study, Tetrachaete elionuroides Chiov. is included in a phylogenetic analysis (using ndhA intron, rpl32- trnL, rps16 intron, rps16-trnK, and ITS DNA markers) in order to test its relationships within the Cynodonteae with heavy sampling of species in the supersubtribe Gouiniodinae P.M.

(August 2004) Colin Scott Shackelford, B.A., Austin College Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Fred Smeins Perennial grass vegetation dynamics of heavy grazing, moderate grazing and ungrazed treatments were analyzed during two extreme drought events: the drought of 1951 to 1956 and the drought events centered on the year 2000. Analysis of each drought event from weather records and Palmer Drought Severity Index values showed that the intensity, duration and pattern of each drought event were structurally unique. Grazing intensity was the primary driver of perennial grass species composition and community structure both during and between each drought event.

  • Viruses Virus Diseases Poaceae(Gramineae)
    Viruses and virus diseases of Poaceae (Gramineae) Viruses The Poaceae are one of the most important plant families in terms of the number of species, worldwide distribution, ecosystems and as ingredients of human and animal food. It is not surprising that they support many parasites including and more than 100 severely pathogenic virus species, of which new ones are being virus diseases regularly described. This book results from the contributions of 150 well-known specialists and presents of for the first time an in-depth look at all the viruses (including the retrotransposons) Poaceae(Gramineae) infesting one plant family. Ta xonomic and agronomic descriptions of the Poaceae are presented, followed by data on molecular and biological characteristics of the viruses and descriptions up to species level. Virus diseases of field grasses (barley, maize, rice, rye, sorghum, sugarcane, triticale and wheats), forage, ornamental, aromatic, wild and lawn Gramineae are largely described and illustrated (32 colour plates). A detailed index Sciences de la vie e) of viruses and taxonomic lists will help readers in their search for information. Foreworded by Marc Van Regenmortel, this book is essential for anyone with an interest in plant pathology especially plant virology, entomology, breeding minea and forecasting. Agronomists will also find this book invaluable. ra The book was coordinated by Hervé Lapierre, previously a researcher at the Institut H. Lapierre, P.-A.

Free State Province Biodiversity Plan: Technical Report v1.0. Free State Department of Economic, Small Business Development, Tourism and Environmental Affairs. Internal Report. 1. Summary $what is a biodiversity plan This report contains the technical information that details the rationale and methods followed to produce the first terrestrial biodiversity plan for the Free State Province. Because of low confidence in the aquatic data that were available at the time of developing the plan, the aquatic component is not included herein and will be released as a separate report. The biodiversity plan was developed with cognisance of the requirements for the determination of bioregions and the preparation and publication of bioregional plans (DEAT, 2009). To this extent the two main products of this process are: • A map indicating the different terrestrial categories (Protected, Critical Biodiversity Areas, Ecological Support Areas, Other and Degraded) • Land-use guidelines for the above mentioned categories This plan represents the first attempt at collating all terrestrial biodiversity and ecological data into a single system from which it can be interrogated and assessed.

Retention of dead or senescing leaves within grass canopies reduces biomass production and encourages fire but also protects against mammalian herbivory. Recently it has been argued that elevated rates of leaf abscission in New Zealand’s native grasses are an evolutionary response to the absence of indigenous herbivorous mammals. That is, grass lineages migrating to New Zealand may have increased biomass production through leaf-shedding without suffering the penalty of increased herbivory. We show here for the Danthonioideae grasses, to which the majority (c. 74%) of New Zealand leaf-abscising species belong, that leaf abscission outside of New Zealand is almost exclusively a feature of taxa of montane and alpine environments. We suggest that the reduced frequency of fire in wet, upland areas is the key factor as montane/alpine regions also experience heavy mammalian grazing.

Bhat* Department of Botany, University of Venda, Thohoyandou, Limpopo 0950, South Africa. Accepted 18 March, 2013 Flowering in Merxmuellera disticha was more strongly stimulated by fire in summer. Flowering tillers produced between 9 and 11 months after fire were significantly more abundant than those produced 21 to 24 months thereafter. Growth in terms of size of individuals was considered insignificant for analysis. Neighbored Hyparrhenia hirta showed, to a certain degree, an out-of-season growth, production and reproduction, whilst M. disticha and Themeda triandra on the same plots did not. The xylem water potential of H. hirta [-10.9(±0.29)], M. disticha [-14.6(±0.80)] and T. triandra [-13.8(±0.29)] on one stand differed significantly from one another (p < 0.0001), and that of H. hirta [-19.7(±0.81] and M. disticha [-34.5(±1.26)] on the other stand also differed significantly from each other (p < 0.0001). One way analysis of variance (ANOVA) thereof produced the following (F-ratio = 13.893; degrees of freedom = 29, p < 0.0001), and for H. hirta versus M. disticha, (F-ratio = 97.605; degrees of freedom = 23, p < 0.0001).

  • New Mexico Range Plants
    New Mexico Range Plants Circular 374 Revised by Christopher D. Allison and Nick Ashcroft1 Cooperative Extension Service • College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences New Mexico contains almost 78 million acres, more than 90 percent of which is in native vegetation grazed by domestic livestock and wildlife. The kinds of plants that grow on a range, along with their quality and quan- tity, determine its value. A successful rancher knows the plants on his or her range. There are more than 3,000 species of plants in New Mexico. The 85 discussed here are most important to the livestock industry. Most of these are native plants. RANGELAND AREAS OF NEW MEXICO Figure 1 represents the major rangeland areas in New Mexico. The northern desert, western plateau, and high valley areas are enough alike to be described together, as are the central and high plains areas and the southern desert and basin.

  • Smith Family of Baja California by Donna Przecha
    Smith Family of Baja California by Donna Przecha San Diego, California July 2012 1 Smith Family of Baja California Donna Przecha _______________________________________________________________________________________________ This is an update of research notes on the family of Thomas Smith and Maria Meza. After sending out the initial report many researchers submitted further information. This report is mainly limited to the children and grandchildren of Thomas and Maria but some lines have been extended a bit further. We did discover that there is a lot of good research that has been done by several family members, much of it well documented. Harry Crosby and I hope that someone will be interested in using this information as a starting point for a more complete history of the family, including later generations. I will admit that the documentation is not complete. It is more a question of indicating where or to whom to go for complete source information. The census information is brief, usually only a year and place. Most people access census returns now through an index, rather than through districts, EDs, pages, etc. I have listed the people as I found them, usually in Ancestry.com or Heritage Quest, even if the spelling is incorrect since this is the way they are indexed. The endnotes are embedded so that it is easy to see the source. To save space and make reading easier, I have used “Guia Familiar” rather than the complete citation: Pablo L. Martínez, Guía Familiar de Baja California, 1700-1900 (Mexico, D.F.: Editorial Baja California, 1965). Many of the references to Guía Familiar are left in Spanish.

  • A Checklist of Lesotho Grasses
    Guidelines for Using the Checklist The genera and species are arranged in alphabetical order. Accepted genus and species names are in bold print, for example, Agrostis barbuligera. Synonyms are in italics, for example, Agrostis natalensis. Not all synonyms for a species are listed. Naturalised taxa are preceded by an asterisk, for example, Pennisetum *clandestinum. These are species that were intro- duced from outside Lesotho but now occur in the wild as part of the natural flora. Single letters after the species names, on the right-hand side of the column, indicate the distribution of species within Lesotho as reflected by the ROML and MASE collections. This indicates that a species has definitely been recorded in Lesotho. L—Lowlands F—Foothills M—Mountains S—Senqu Valley Double letters after species names, on the right-hand side of the column, indicate the distribution of species along the border with South Africa as reflected in the literature. This indicates that a species could occur in Lesotho, but has not yet been recorded.
