  • Literature Cited
    Literature Cited Robert W. Kiger, Editor This is a consolidated list of all works cited in volumes 19, 20, and 21, whether as selected references, in text, or in nomenclatural contexts. In citations of articles, both here and in the taxonomic treatments, and also in nomenclatural citations, the titles of serials are rendered in the forms recommended in G. D. R. Bridson and E. R. Smith (1991). When those forms are abbre- viated, as most are, cross references to the corresponding full serial titles are interpolated here alphabetically by abbreviated form. In nomenclatural citations (only), book titles are rendered in the abbreviated forms recommended in F. A. Stafleu and R. S. Cowan (1976–1988) and F. A. Stafleu and E. A. Mennega (1992+). Here, those abbreviated forms are indicated parenthetically following the full citations of the corresponding works, and cross references to the full citations are interpolated in the list alphabetically by abbreviated form. Two or more works published in the same year by the same author or group of coauthors will be distinguished uniquely and consistently throughout all volumes of Flora of North America by lower-case letters (b, c, d, ...) suffixed to the date for the second and subsequent works in the set. The suffixes are assigned in order of editorial encounter and do not reflect chronological sequence of publication. The first work by any particular author or group from any given year carries the implicit date suffix “a”; thus, the sequence of explicit suffixes begins with “b”. Works missing from any suffixed sequence here are ones cited elsewhere in the Flora that are not pertinent in these volumes.

  • Practical Experiences in Invasive Alien Plant Control
    ROSALIA Handbooks ROSALIA Handbooks Practical Experiences in Invasive Alien Plant Control Second, revised and expanded edition Invasive plant species pose major agricultural, silvicultural, human health and ecological problems worldwide, and are considered the most signifi cant threat for nature conservation. Species invading natural areas in Hungary have been described by a number of books published in the Practical Experiences in Invasive Alien Plant Control last few years. A great amount of experience has been gathered about the control of these species in some areas, which we can read about in an increasing number of articles; however, no book has been published with regards to the whole country. Invasions affecting larger areas require high energy and cost input, and the effectiveness and successfulness of control can be infl uenced by a number of factors. The development of effective, widely applicable control and eradication technologies is preceded by experiments and examinations which are based on a lot of practical experience and often loaded with negative experiences. National park directorates, forest and agricultural managers and NGOs in many parts of Hungary are combatting the spread of invasive species; however, the exchange of information and conclusion of experiences among the managing bodies is indispensable. The aim of the present volume is to facilitate this by summarizing experiences and the methods applied in practice; which, we hope, will enable us to successfully stop the further spread of invasive plant species and effectively protect our natural values.

La iniciativa se inscribe en el Proyecto Flora iberica, financiado en la actualidad por el Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad. El estudio ha entrañado la realización de numerosas prospecciones en el campo, necesarias para poder abordar aspectos importantes, tales como los estudios cariológicos, palinológicos y moleculares, todos encaminados a apoyar la slntesis taxonómica, que ha requerido además de un exhaustivo estudio de material conservado en herbarios nacionales e internacionales.

Elbadry Department of Botany, Faculty of Science, Benghazi University, Libya Abstract Article info In this study, the cypsela surfaces of three taxa belonging to the genus Bellis L. were investigated in details by means of electron microscopy. Received: 12/01/2021 The main aim of this study was to characterize the microsculpture of cypsela surface of the Libyan taxa of Bellis. (Asteraceae). Detailed Revised: 28/01/2021 descriptions of cypsela surface were given for each taxon. The results indicated that the examined taxa had very high variations regarding their Accepted: 27/02/2021 cypselae surfaces and these variations have great importance in determining the taxonomic relationships of the discussed taxa. Based on © IJPLS the results, pericarp texture and color could be used for taxonomical diagnosis. The fruit coat was usually roguish and its ornamentation was www.ijplsjournal.com fairly variable; therefore, this taxonomical microcharacter might also be useful in distinguishing closely related taxa. The hairiness of the surface of the pericarp was characteristic in the studied taxa.

(Asteraceae) species from Turkey Faruk Karahan* Department of Biology, Faculty of Science and Arts, Hatay Mustafa Kemal University, 31040 Hatay, Turkey Abstract – In the present study, the morphological characters, root, stem and leaf anatomy, pollen and achene micromorphology of Bellis L. species (Bellis annua L., B. perennis L. and B. sylvestris Cirillo) distributed in Turkey have been investigated on light and scanning electron microscope. Palynological analysis showed that pollen characters were found as small to medium size, isopolar, radially symmetrical, oblate-spheroidal and prolate- spheroidal, tricolporate and echinate-perforate ornamentation in the three species. Achene characters were found dark brown to yellow in colour, often cylindrical, compressed, with thickened margin, obovate orobovoid shaped, pappus absent and the coat ornamentations are rectangular with short hairs on the surface. As a result of this study, leaf morphology and some pollen characteristics such as pollen size, shape, perforation and distance be- tween spines were demonstrated to be different among the Bellis species. Keywords: Bellis, common daisy, Compositae, taxonomy, SEM Introduction The genus Bellis L. (Asteraceae) has been included in the Fiz et al. (2002) studied the phylogenetic relationships subtribe Bellidinae Willk. (tribe Astereae Cass.) along with between Bellis and the closely related genera (Bellidastrum 117 other genera representing more than 3000 annual or Scop, Bellium L. and Rhynchospermum Lindl.) and evolu- perennial taxa (Bremer 1994). It is native to western, cen- tion of their morphological characters.
