  • Aloe Scientific Primer International Aloe Science Council
    The International Aloe Science Council Presents an Aloe Scientific Primer International Aloe Science Council Commonly Traded Aloe Species The plant Aloe spp. has long been utilized in a variety of ways throughout history, which has been well documented elsewhere and need not be recounted in detail here, particularly as the purpose of this document is to discuss current and commonly traded aloe species. Aloe, in its various species, can presently and in the recent past be found in use as a decorative element in homes and gardens, in the creation of pharmaceuticals, in wound care products such as burn ointment, sunburn protectant and similar applications, in cosmetics, and as a food, dietary supplements and other health and nutrition related items. Recently, various species of the plant have even been used to weave into clothing and in mattresses. Those species of Aloe commonly used in commerce today can be divided into three primary categories: those used primarily in the production of crude drugs, those used primarily for decorative purposes, and those used in health, nutritional and related products. For reference purposes, this paper will outline the primary species and their uses, but will focus on the species most widely used in commerce for health, nutritional, cosmetic and supplement products, such as aloe vera. Components of aloe vera currently used in commerce The Aloe plant, and in particular aloe vera, has three distinct raw material components that are processed and found in manufactured goods: leaf juice; inner leaf juice; and aloe latex. A great deal of confusion regarding the terminology of this botanical and its components has been identified, mostly because of a lack of clear definitions, marketing, and other factors.

The plant genus Strelitzia occurs naturally in the eastern parts of southern Africa. It comprises three arborescent species, known as wild bananas, and two acaulescent species, known as crane flowers or bird-of-paradise flowers. The logo of the South African National Biodiversity Institute is based on the striking inflorescence of Strelitzia reginae, a native of the Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal that has become a garden favourite worldwide.

Within this context, Decision 18.28 was adopted to develop a framework that could be used to improve the conservation status of CITES-listed Appendix-I taxa. Specifically, the Decision calls for a rapid assessment of Appendix-I taxa, detailed assessments of selected taxa, and identification and prioritization of those Appendix-I taxa that could potentially benefit from future CITES action.

In older systems Agavaceae were paraphyletic due to overemphasis of ovary position or habit. Discovery of a unique bimodal karyotype in Agave and Yucca eventually led to a reexamination of concepts and relationships in all the lilioid monocots, which continues to the present day. Developments in cytogenetics, microscopy, phylogenetic systematics, and most recently DNA tech- nology have led to remarkable new insights. Large-scale rbcL sequence studies placed Agavaceae with the core Asparagales and identi®ed closely related taxa. Analysis of cpDNA restriction sites, rbcL, and ITS nrDNA sequences all supported removal of Dracaenaceae, Nolinaceae, and clari®ed relationships. Agavaceae s.s. presently consists of Agave, Beschorneria, Furcraea, Hesperaloe, Hes- peroyucca, Manfreda, Polianthes, Prochnyanthes, and Yucca.

  • Madagascar Significant Trade – Plants Report for CITES Secretariat RBG Kew (July 2003) Andrew Newman
    PC13 Inf. 8 (English only/Únicamente en inglés/Seulement en anglais) Madagascar Significant Trade – Plants Report for CITES Secretariat RBG Kew (July 2003) Andrew Newman Introduction The objective of this project was two fold: - To carry out an analysis of trade in plant species from Madagascar in order to assist the CITES Management and Scientific authorities of Madagascar. - To provide recommendations on the sustainable trade in wild-collected plants and on the commercial propagation of species with horticultural interest or those used for their derivatives. This project was carried out on the basis of an overview of trends in trade of Appendix II plant species from Madagascar, previous actions of the CITES authorities of Madagascar, recommendations of the Plants and Standing Committees, current concerns about compliance with the provisions of Article IV paragraphs 2a) and 3, institutional and administrative arrangements related to implementation of Article IV for exports of Appendix II species, and the close effectiveness of relevant national legislation and its implementation. The role of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. Complete a desktop survey to: · Review the trade data available in the CITES database held at the World Conservation Monitoring Centre (WCMC-UNEP), regarding species occurring in Madagascar and on the trade to and from Madagascar. · Collect information on cultivation. · Assess conservation status. · Identify key species. A database was built to hold data from the desktop survey, on taxa recorded in the CITES trade data (held by UNEP-WCMC) reported as exported or imported from Madagascar. Taxa not found in the CITES trade data but considered to be in trade according to an expert panel have also been included.

  • Aloe L. Fam. Liliaceae” Invites You to Our ALOE
    8. ROCKERY IV A sign board “Aloe L. Fam. Liliaceae” invites you to our ALOE BOTANICAL COLLECTION. This rockery does not present a very attractive sight during the hot dry months from May to middle of July, when due to heat leaves of most of the species are badly shriveled, with some having the slender parts of the leaves scorched. With the arrival of monsoons the plants pick up growth and, with turgid green and glossy leaves, Aloes present another sight. Out of the thirty five odd species, a few are unidentified or hybrids. For succulent lovers fond of flowering plants the different species are not to be missed. This rockery is relatively quite small being just 30 meters long by10 to 15 meters wide. 108 Like in other rockeries the bigger plants, here Aloe arborescens and several species of Aglonema and Dracaena, are in the background, thus forming a hedge which cuts off the view of the propagation area and its glasshouses. Two large CAMPHOR trees complete the partition. Aloe arborescens 109 Aloe arborescens along with Aloe barbadensis Syn. Aloe vera are the first one to come in bloom during the monsoons, their flowering season extending up to the middle of winter. Some groups of Aloe arborescens are up to three meters high, with profuse branching from near the base or along the stems. The length of leaves varies in different clones/localities. The scarlet flower racemes are simple, up to three to four form a rosette. They come in flowers at the end of October and the flowering season last 3 to 4 months.
