En el caso de las orquídeas del género Cattleya, hoy en día la limitación del crecimiento poblacional es mayor debido a dos factores principales, el primero es la ampliación de la frontera agrícola, que genera una deforestación de los árboles que son sustrato de estas orquídeas epífitas y el segundo es el alto interés comercial, que produce una presión de extracción de individuos de estas especies de su hábitat natural. La especie Cattleya quadricolor, es una de las 22 especies de flora con mayor amenaza en el Valle del Cauca endémica de Colombia, se encuentra en peligro de extinción a nivel nacional según el libro rojo. Presenta una distribución geográfica restringida a los bosques secos tropicales de la cuenca alta del río Cauca, en los departamentos del Valle del Cauca, Quindío y Risaralda. Por su condición endémica y amenazada es importante conocer el estado de la población, para desarrollar estrategias de conservación en el Valle del Cauca. Este estudio tiene como objetivo evaluar la estructura poblacional de Cattleya quadricolor Lindl. En la zona de amortiguación del Jardín Botánico Juan María Céspedes. Para esto se evaluó la demografía de esta especie mediante la construcción de tabla de vida estática, la cual se construyó a partir del registro de la estructura de edades de la población en dos muestreos uno en el 2017 en el mes de octubre y el segundo muestreo en el 2018 en el mes de marzo, además se determinó la distribución vertical de la especie a partir de los registros de altura de cada individuo en un ecosistema de Bosque seco tropical. Los resultados obtenidos respecto a la demografía indican que la población de C. quadricolor está en disminución, la etapa de adulto 2 presenta el mayor éxito reproductivo y su distribución vertical se centra entre 12 y 24 m de altura, estos resultados proporcionan información esencial para el desarrollo de acciones de conservación para esta especie en el área de estudio. 11 Palabras clave: Cattleya quadricolor, epífitas, en peligro de extinción, tabla de vida estática, demografía, conservación, distribución vertical, ABSTRACT Epiphytic orchids depend on a changing substrate that can fall or break, such as a tree branch, a vine, or the trunk of a tree, the fragility of the substrate can be limited to its population growth. In the case of orchids of the genus Cattleya, today the limitation of population growth is greater due to two main factors, the first is the expansion of the agricultural frontier, which generates a deforestation of the trees that are the substratum of these epiphyte orchids and the second is the high commercial interest, which produces a pressure to extract individuals of these species from their natural habitat. The species Cattleya quadricolor, is one of the 22 species of flora with the greatest threat in the Valle del Cauca endemic to Colombia, is in danger of extinction according to the IUCN. It has a restricted geographic distribution to the tropical dry forests of the upper Cauca river basin, in the departments of Valle del Cauca, Quindío and Risaralda. Due to its endemic and threatened condition it is important to know the state of the population, to develop conservation strategies in the Valle del Cauca. The objective of this study is to evaluate the population structure of Cattleya quadricolor in the buffer zone of the Juan María Céspedes Botanical Garden. For this the demography of this species is evaluated by means of the construction of the static life table, which is constructed from the registration of the age structure of the population in two samples in 2017 in the month october and the second sampling in 2018 in the month of march, in addition, the vertical distribution of the species was determined from the height records of each individual in a tropical dry forest ecosystem. The results 12 obtained with respect to the demography indicate that the population of C. quadricolor is decreasing, the stage of adult 2 presents the greatest reproductive success and its vertical distribution is centered between 12 and 24 m in height, these results are essential information for the development of conservation actions for this species in the study area. Keywords: Cattleya quadricolor, epiphytes, in danger of extinction, static life table, demography, conservation, vertical distribution. 13 1.INTRODUCCIÓN 1.1 MARCO TEÓRICO Las plantas epífitas se caracterizan por utilizar otras plantas como soporte, son elementos diversos e importantes para la diversidad biológica forestal, porque proporcionan una variedad de nichos que son aprovechados por diferentes grupos de animales como anfibios, aves y artrópodos. Además, juegan un rol importante en los ciclos ambientales de los ecosistemas boscosos ya que pueden acumular entre sus hojas, agua y nutrientes que son reciclados de la biomasa como el fósforo y el nitrógeno (Romero et al. 2008; Köster et al. 2009). Las epífitas representan el 10% de toda la flora vascular a nivel global, tienen aproximadamente 28000 epífitas vasculares en el mundo, de las cuales 19000 son orquídeas. (Rodríguez et al. 2016). 1.1.1 Orquídeas Epífitas: La familia Orchidaceae tiene en el mundo aproximadamente 25000 especies y cerca de 950 géneros, que presentan una distribución cosmopolita. Una alta proporción de las orquídeas son endémicas las cuales tienden a ocupar distribuciones restringidas y pisos altitudinales reducidos, con más especies endémicas a mayor elevación. El alto endemismo está relacionado con una mayor diversidad de especies (Kessler et al. 2001). Las orquídeas epífitas tienen ciertos mecanismos que determinan su crecimiento epífito tanto en el bosque como en su distribución vertical. Primero las especies epífitas presentan variación en su tolerancia a la sombra. En este mecanismo la luz juega un papel importante porque la sombra generada por los forófitos y el parche espacio-temporal ambiental característico de los hábitats epífitos pueden limitar el acceso de luz a la planta. Este acceso a la luz también depende de la cantidad, tamaño y orientación de las hojas (Ventre-Lespiaucq et al 2017). El segundo mecanismo es la adaptación que permite el anclaje a la corteza y no en el suelo.

Be sure to catch all the changes to our activities as we social distance. While we normally meet at the Civic Garden Center, we plan, at present, to meet online with Zoom. We will be emailing Zoom meeting information for our society and for other societies as they offer their meetings to our members. We are also sharing members’ orchids with an online Show-and-Tell. Presidents Note Greetings I hope everyone is continuing to stay Photo by Rick Noel healthy during the start of this new year. Unfortunately, we will be continuing zoom meetings for the foreseeable future until things get back to normal which I believe they will. So far, our zoom meetings have been well received by our membership. Please let us know if you have any thoughts on potential topics/speakers going forward. We are also fortunate to have been invited to other nearby society zoom meetings which is a big plus for all our members. The board has decided that we will not be having a spring or fall show. If things change sooner than later then we might entertain having the fall show. Few things are written in stone and we have to remain fluid on events being planned for the rest of the year. We continue to work with MVOS on the possibility of having an Orchid Fest this fall but like the shows it will only happen if it is allowed by local health authorities. We hope it happens so that we all get together in person again.

CAMERON The Lewis B. and Dorothy Cullman Program for Molecular Systematics Studies, The New York Botanical Garden, Bronx, New York 10458-5126, USA ([email protected]) ABSTRACT Parsimony analyses of DNA sequences from the plastid genes atpB and rbcL were completed for 173 species of Orchidaceae (representing 150 different genera) and nine genera from outgroup families in Asparagales. The atpB tree topology is similar to the rbcL tree, although the atpB data contain less homoplasy and provide greater jackknife support than rbcL alone. In combination, the two-gene tree recovers five monophyletic clades corresponding to subfamilies within Orchidaceae, and fully resolves them with moderate to high jackknife support as follows: Epidendroideae are sister to Orchidoideae, followed by Cypripedioideae, then Vanilloideae, and with Apostasioideae sister to the entire family.

    MOLECULAR PHYLOGENETICS OF TRIBE EPIDENDREAE WITH EMPHASIS ON SUBTRIBE LAELIINAE (ORCHIDACEAE) A thesis submitted to the University of Reading for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Cássio van den Berg October 2000 Department of Botany, School of Plant Sciences, University of Reading and Jodrell Laboratory, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew ABSTRACT In this project, the phylogenetic relationships of tribe Epidendreae, especially subtribe Laeliinae were assessed by using DNA sequence data. At the tribal level, I used data from three DNA regions, namely internal transcribed spacers of nuclear ribosomal DNA (ITS), and plastid matK (gene and spacers) and trnL-F (intron, exon and spacer). After individual and combined phylogenetic analysis using parsimony, it was possible to delimit Epidendreae as an exclusively Neotropical tribe (composed of subtribes Laeliinae, Pleurothallidinae, Ponerinae, Bletiinae and Chysinae). It is still unclear whether Coeliinae and Calypsoeae should be also included in Epidendreae. All Old World subtribes placed in Epidendreae in Dressler’s (1993) system belong to different tribes of subfamily Epidendroideae. The revised subtribe Bletiinae is composed only of Bletia, Hexalectris and Basiphyllaea. All Old World genera previously placed in Bletiinae belong also to Old World groups. Arpophyllum (previously Arpophyllinae) and Meiracyllium (previously Meiracyllinae) should be included in Laeliinae. Neocogniauxia and Dilomilis belong to a clade sister to Pleurothallidinae. Ponera, Isochilus and Helleriella (previously in the Scaphyglottis alliance within Laeliinae) belong to a recircumscribed version of Ponerinae, which is sister to Bletiinae. Two other datasets were collected to investigate in more detail phylogenetic relationships within Laeliinae. The first dataset used 295 ITS sequences to assess generic delimitation and species phylogenies.

D.) Isolation and molecular characterization of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) oxidase gene in Cattleya spp. Miss Chanthra Timclub Abstract The plant hormone ethylene is known to stimulate a wide variety of plant response to flower senescence and fruit ripening. A gene in ethylene synthetic pathway, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) oxidase gene, was identified from flower of Cattleya spp. Lucky Strike variety. In this study, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) methods were used to amplify the ACC oxidase sequences. The cDNA of ACC oxidase (ACO) was cloned and characterized. The cDNA from Cattleya-ACOs, open reading frame (ORF) and 3’untranslated region (3’UTR), were 1,081 nucleotides in length. The sequence was further analysed by comparing with other ACC oxidase genes in GenBank Database. The results show that major difference between Cattleya spp. located at 3’UTR while the amino acid sequence alignment indicated high percent identity at 96.7%. In addition, the amino acid sequence of Cattleya-ACC oxidase was compared with 11 ACC oxidase genes of other plants from Genbank database. Ascorbate binding domains, ACC binding domain, ferrous ion binding domain, bicarbonate binding domain, leucine zipper and basic zipper domain were found in all ACOs.
