Although this year has thrown many obstacles our way, we feel that the “show must go on.” In response to the COVID-19 situation, this year will look a little different. For the safety of our members and our customers, this year will be an online pre-order only sale. Our mission stays the same: to support our community’s green spaces, and to educate our community in the areas of gardening, horticulture, conservation, and related topics. GCH members serve as volunteers, and our profits from the Bulb Mart are given back to WELCOME the community in support of our mission. In the last fifteen years, we have given back over $3.5 million in grants to the community! The Garden Club of Houston’s first Plant Sale was held in 1942, on the steps of The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, with plants dug from members’ gardens. Plants propagated from our own members’ yards will be available again this year as well as plants and bulbs sourced from near and far that are unique, interesting, and well suited for area gardens.

  • GENOME EVOLUTION in MONOCOTS a Dissertation
    GENOME EVOLUTION IN MONOCOTS A Dissertation Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School At the University of Missouri In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy By Kate L. Hertweck Dr. J. Chris Pires, Dissertation Advisor JULY 2011 The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the dissertation entitled GENOME EVOLUTION IN MONOCOTS Presented by Kate L. Hertweck A candidate for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy And hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. Dr. J. Chris Pires Dr. Lori Eggert Dr. Candace Galen Dr. Rose‐Marie Muzika ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am indebted to many people for their assistance during the course of my graduate education. I would not have derived such a keen understanding of the learning process without the tutelage of Dr. Sandi Abell. Members of the Pires lab provided prolific support in improving lab techniques, computational analysis, greenhouse maintenance, and writing support. Team Monocot, including Dr. Mike Kinney, Dr. Roxi Steele, and Erica Wheeler were particularly helpful, but other lab members working on Brassicaceae (Dr. Zhiyong Xiong, Dr. Maqsood Rehman, Pat Edger, Tatiana Arias, Dustin Mayfield) all provided vital support as well. I am also grateful for the support of a high school student, Cady Anderson, and an undergraduate, Tori Docktor, for their assistance in laboratory procedures. Many people, scientist and otherwise, helped with field collections: Dr. Travis Columbus, Hester Bell, Doug and Judy McGoon, Julie Ketner, Katy Klymus, and William Alexander. Many thanks to Barb Sonderman for taking care of my greenhouse collection of many odd plants brought back from the field.

  • Relative Importance and Knowledge Distribution of Medicinal Plants in a Kichwa Community in the Ecuadorian Amazon
    Research Communications Relative Importance and Knowledge Distribution of Medicinal Plants in a Kichwa Community in the Ecuadorian Amazon Brian J. Doyle1*, Caroline M. Asiala1, and Diana M. Fernández2 1Department of Biology and Department of Biochemistry, Alma College, Alma, MI, USA. 2National Institute of Biodiversity, National Herbarium of Ecuador, Quito, Ecuador. *[email protected] Abstract Traditional knowledge, such as knowledge of the use of plants as medicine, influences how indigenous people manage forest resources. Gender and age-associated differences in traditional knowledge may impact forest resource management because of the traditional division of labor. We interviewed 18 men and 18 women between 9 and 74 years old in San José de Payamino, an indigenous community of the Kichwa ethnicity in the Ecuadorian Amazon, to determine if there are gender or age-associated differences in medicinal plant knowledge among the Payamino people and to identify the most important species from a sample of medicinal plants. Individuals were interviewed using a tablet that displayed images of 34 plants, which had been cited by traditional healers in the community. Quantitative analysis provided insight into the relative importance of plants in the sample as well as the distribution of medicinal plant knowledge among members of the community. The most important plants were Tradescantia zanonia and Monolena primuliflora. These plants should be considered candidates for further investigation. There was a positive correlation between age and knowledge of medicinal plants, but no significant difference between genders. Our results suggest that an interview method that relies on digital images can reveal differences in the importance of medicinal plants as well as provide insight into the distribution of traditional medical knowledge.

    ATOLL RESEARCH BULLETIN NO. 503 THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF MAJURO ATOLL, REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS BY NANCY VANDER VELDE ISSUED BY NATIONAL MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION WASHINGTON, D.C., U.S.A. AUGUST 2003 Uliga Figure 1. Majuro Atoll THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF MAJURO ATOLL, REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS ABSTRACT Majuro Atoll has been a center of activity for the Marshall Islands since 1944 and is now the major population center and port of entry for the country. Previous to the accompanying study, no thorough documentation has been made of the vascular plants of Majuro Atoll. There were only reports that were either part of much larger discussions on the entire Micronesian region or the Marshall Islands as a whole, and were of a very limited scope. Previous reports by Fosberg, Sachet & Oliver (1979, 1982, 1987) presented only 115 vascular plants on Majuro Atoll. In this study, 563 vascular plants have been recorded on Majuro. INTRODUCTION The accompanying report presents a complete flora of Majuro Atoll, which has never been done before. It includes a listing of all species, notation as to origin (i.e. indigenous, aboriginal introduction, recent introduction), as well as the original range of each. The major synonyms are also listed. For almost all, English common names are presented. Marshallese names are given, where these were found, and spelled according to the current spelling system, aside from limitations in diacritic markings. A brief notation of location is given for many of the species. The entire list of 563 plants is provided to give the people a means of gaining a better understanding of the nature of the plants of Majuro Atoll.

  • Analisis Del Contenido Alcaloidico De Caliphruria Subedentata Baker (Amaryllidaceae) Por El Metodo Cg-Em
    ANALISIS DEL CONTENIDO ALCALOIDICO DE CALIPHRURIA SUBEDENTATA BAKER (AMARYLLIDACEAE) POR EL METODO CG-EM FABIO CABEZAS1*, NATALIA PIGNI2, JAUME BASTIDA2, CARLES CODINA2 Y FRANCESC VILADOMAT2 (Recibido Junio 2012; Aceptado Marzo 2013) Este manuscrito está dedicado al Dr. Tirso Ríos en reconocimiento a su trayectoria en la investigación de los Productos Naturales ABSTRACT Caliphruria is a genus of bulbous plants in the Amaryllidaceae family. It consists of four species distributed in tropical regions of South America, three of them are endemic of Colombia. This genus is infrequent in nature, with restricted geogra- phical distribution. C. subedentata Baker is threatened by extinction. The polar extract showed moderate cytotoxic activity. In previews phytochemical studies, by classical methods, we isolated six alkaloids: galanthamine, lycorine, haemantamine, maritidine, homolycorine and hamayna. In this work we reports 18 compounds identified by GC-MS technique: ismine, trisphaeridine, 5,6-dihydrobicolorine, ga- lanthamine, clidantine, narwedine, kirkine, galantindol, maritidine, anhydrolyco- rine, deoxytazetine, 6-methoxypretazzetine, tazzetine, haemantamine, 11,12-de- hydroanhydrolycorine, lycorine, homolycorine, epimacronine and one alkaloid not identified. www.relaquim.com Keywords.

RESUMEN Caliphruria es un género de plantas bulbosas perteneciente a la familia Amary- llidaceae. Consiste en cuatro especies distribuidas en regiones tropicales de Sur América, tres de las cuales son endémicas de Colombia. Este género es muy escaso en la naturaleza, con distribución geográfica restringida.C. subedentata Baker está considerada en vía de extinción. El extracto polar mostró una moderada actividad citotóxica. En estudios fitoquímicos previos, por el método clásico, aislamos seis alcaloides: galantamina, licorina, hemantamina, maritidina, homolicorina y hamay- na.

  • FIRST RECORD of the AMAZON LILY Eucharis Sanderi (AMARYLLIDACEAE) for ISLA GORGONA, COLOMBIA*
    BOLETÍN CIENTÍFICO ISSN 0123 - 3068 bol.cient.mus.hist.nat. 17 (1), enero - junio, 2013. 46 - 49 CENTRO DE MUSEOS MUSEO DE HISTORIA NATURAL FIRST RECORD OF THE AMAZON LILY Eucharis sanderi (AMARYLLIDACEAE) FOR ISLA GORGONA, COLOMBIA* Ana Paola Yusti-Muñoz1 y Jorge H. Velandia-Perilla1 Abstract The amazon lily Eucharis sanderi is a rare species endemic to western Colombia, with few locality records known. We documented the occurrence of the species for the first time on Isla Gorgona, near the Pacific coast of Colombia, based on a specimen collected in May, 2011. Isla Gorgona is an important protected area for the conservation of threatened species such as E. sanderi. We recommend that research be conducted to determine the conservation status of the population of this species on the island. Key words: Biogeography, Amazon Lilies, Eucharis, New locality records. PRIMER REGISTRO DEL LIRIO AMAZÓNICO Eucharis sanderi (AMARILLIDACEAE) PARA LA ISLA GORGONA, COLOMBIA Resumen El lirio amazónico Eucharis sanderi es una especie rara endémica del occidente de Colombia, con pocos registros de ocurrencia. Se documentó la presencia de la especie por primera vez en la Isla Gorgona, cerca de la costa del Pacífico de Colombia, con base en un ejemplar colectado en mayo de 2011. La Isla Gorgona es un área protegida, importante para la conservación de especies amenazadas, como E. sanderi. Se recomienda que se hagan estudios para determinar el estado de conservación de la población de esta especie en la Isla.
