Caldasia 43(1):49–64. doi: https://dx.doi.org/10.15446/caldasia.v43n1.84230. • Online Publishing: 9/Nov/2020 ABSTRACT This article describes the diversity and use of trees and shrubs in smallholder farming systems in three municipalities of the department of Boyacá in the Colombian Andes, and tests the relations between spe- cies richness, use, and a set of socio-economic and structural variables. We conducted ethnobotanical walks and semi-structured interviews on 24 farms to characterize all tree and shrub species. In total, we recorded 142 species with a predominance of natives (88) versus exotics (54). Species richness ranged between four and 40 (X = 25.17; SD = 10.13) per farm and was homogeneous among the municipalities (P > 0.05, Kruskal-Wallis test). We recorded 52 wild species, eight of them endemic, all representative of the surrounding native flora, of which 23 % had some type of use. Cultivated species were mostly represented by exotics that had been planted primarily as live fences, ornamentals, or edibles.

  • Variation in the Grass Pea (Lathyrus Sa Tivus L.' and Wild Species
    Euphytica 33 (1984) 549-559 VARIATION IN THE GRASS PEA (LATHYRUS SA TIVUS L.' AND WILD SPECIES M. T. JACKSON and A. G. YUNUS1 Department of Plant Biology, University of Birmingham, Bl5 2Tr, England Received 21 September 1983 .DEX WORDS Lathyrus sativus,grass pea, wild species,variation, multivariate analyses. SUMMARY Forty-nine accessionsof Lathyrus sativuswere studied for morphological variation. Data were analysed using Principal Components Analysis and Cluster Analysis. The variation in 14 speciesof SectionLathyrus was also evaluated in order to ascertainaffinities betweenL. sativusand other species. L. sativus is a highly variable species,and there is a clear distinction betweenthe blue-flowered fonns from south-west Asia, Ethiopia and the Indian subcontinent, and the white and white and blue flowered fonns with white seedswhich have a more westerly distribution. Differences in vegetative parts may be due to selectionfor forage types. L. sativus appears to be closely related to L. cicera and L. gorgoni, and this relationship needs further investigation. INTRODUCTION The genus Lathyrus is large with 187 speciesand subspeciesrecognised (ALLKIN et al., 1983).Species are found in the Old World and the New World, but clearly there are centres of diversity for Old World speciesin Asia Minor and the Mediterranean region (ZEVEN& DE WET,1982). A number of speciesare usedas animal fodder plants including L. hirsutusand L. palustris, and some are valued as ornamentals, especially L. odoratus,the sweetpea. Only one species,L. sativus,the grasspea, khesari or chick- ling pea is widely cultivated as a food crop, and this pulse is a dependable cropper in drought conditions (SMARTT,1976).

  • Diseases of Specific Florist Crops Geranium (Pelargonium Hortorum)
    Diseases of Specific Florist Crops Keeping florist crops free of disease requires constant care and planning. Prevention is the basis of freedom from disease and should be an integral part of the general cultural program. The symptoms of the diseases of major florist crops are described individually by crop in a series of fact sheets. Geranium (Pelargonium hortorum) • Bacterial blight (Xanthomonas campestris pv. pelargonii): Tiny (1/16 in. diameter) round brown leaf spots, often surrounded by a chlorotic zone. Spots form when bacteria have been splashed onto the leaf surface. Subsequent systemic invasion of the plant leads to the development of a yellow or tan wedge-shaped area at the leaf edge and then to wilting of the leaf. Further progression of the disease may lead to brown stem cankers at nodes, brown to black vascular discoloration inside the stem, and tip dieback or wilting of all or part of the plant. Roots usually remain healthy-looking. Disease symptoms develop most readily under warm (spring) greenhouse temperatures. Spread is rapid during the handling and overhead irrigation associated with propagation. Only geraniums are susceptible to bacterial blight. P. hortorum (zonal) and P. peltatum (ivy) both show symptoms; P. domesticum (Martha Washington or Regal) is less likely to show symptoms. Hardy Geranium species may also be a source of infection; these will show leaf spot but not wilt symptoms. Infested plants should be destroyed; there are no chemical controls. Although culture- indexing procedures should have eliminated this disease from modern geranium production, it remains all too common in the industry today, causing large financial losses to geranium growers.

  • PHASEOLUS LESSON ONE PHASEOLUS and the FABACEAE INTRODUCTION to the FABACEAE
    1 PHASEOLUS LESSON ONE PHASEOLUS and the FABACEAE In this lesson we will begin our study of the GENUS Phaseolus, a member of the Fabaceae family. The Fabaceae are also known as the Legume Family. We will learn about this family, the Fabaceae and some of the other LEGUMES. When we study about the GENUS and family a plant belongs to, we are studying its TAXONOMY. For this lesson to be complete you must: ___________ do everything in bold print; ___________ answer the questions at the end of the lesson; ___________ complete the world map at the end of the lesson; ___________ complete the table at the end of the lesson; ___________ learn to identify the different members of the Fabaceae (use the study materials at www.geauga4h.org); and ___________ complete one of the projects at the end of the lesson. Parts of the lesson are in underlined and/or in a different print. Younger members can ignore these parts. WORDS PRINTED IN ALL CAPITAL LETTERS may be new vocabulary words. For help, see the glossary at the end of the lesson. INTRODUCTION TO THE FABACEAE The genus Phaseolus is part of the Fabaceae, or the Pea or Legume Family. This family is also known as the Leguminosae. TAXONOMISTS have different opinions on naming the family and how to treat the family. Members of the Fabaceae are HERBS, SHRUBS and TREES. Most of the members have alternate compound leaves. The FRUIT is usually a LEGUME, also called a pod. Members of the Fabaceae are often called LEGUMES. Legume crops like chickpeas, dry beans, dry peas, faba beans, lentils and lupine commonly have root nodules inhabited by beneficial bacteria called rhizobia.

  • Sweet Pea Cut Flower Production in Utah Maegen Lewis, Melanie Stock, Tiffany Maughan, Dan Drost, Brent Black
    October 2019 Horticulture/Small Acreage/2019-01pr Sweet Pea Cut Flower Production in Utah Maegen Lewis, Melanie Stock, Tiffany Maughan, Dan Drost, Brent Black Introduction heavy rain and snowfall. If the plastic is installed Sweet peas are a cool-season annual in Utah, and after heavy precipitation, moisture will be trapped cut flower production is improved with the use of in the tunnel and soil can remain too wet. This high tunnels. Sweet peas should be transplanted makes very early spring planting challenging and early in the spring and harvested until hot summer increases the risk of disease. temperatures decrease stem length and quality. Sweet peas require a strong trellis, high soil fertility, and frequent harvesting. Tunnel-grown sweet peas began producing 4 weeks earlier and had 15% more marketable stems than a field-grown comparison crop in North Logan, Utah. However, our hot, semi- arid climate, combined with insect pressure limited success in our trials. How to Grow Soil Preparation: For optimal growth, sweet peas require rich, well-drained soil. Incorporating an inch of compost into the soil prior to planting can increase fertility, drainage, and organic matter, without creating pH or salinity problems. Conduct a routine soil test to determine any soil nutrient needs prior to planting sweet peas. Soil testing is particularly important when planting in new locations, and should be repeated every 2 years. USU’s Analytical Laboratories performs soil tests. Pricing and information for collecting and submitting a sample is available on their website. For sweet peas grown in a high tunnel, begin planning and maintaining the high tunnel during the ©2019 Utah State Univ.

  • Growing Fabulous Sweet Peas
    Growing Fabulous Sweet Peas (Lathryrus Odoratus) What? Family: Papilionaceae (think “butterfly”) Genus: Lathyrus Odoratus (simply put, “fragrant and very exciting”) Species: Latifolius (loosely, a ”broad flower”) Botanist Credited: Theophrastus, a Greek philosopher, student of Aristotle Varieties: There are about 150 species of the Lathyrus genus. At one time there were about 300 hundred varieties but now, unfortunately, only about 50 are available. In other words...our exquisite sweet peas are “broad, exciting, butterfly-shaped flowers!” Although stories vary about its European history, the lovely sweet pea is thought to have been brought to Britain via a Sicilian monk who sent seeds to a Middlesex schoolmaster, Henry Eckford in the 19th century. Over a period of more than 30 years, Eckford crossed and selected sweet peas to produce large flowers (grandifolia). The Spencer family (of the Princess Di fame) later developed many of the varieties, in the Earl of Spencer’s garden at Althorp, Northamptonshire, the best known being the ‘Countess Spencer’. The varieties we see today which sport the Spencer name are descended from the Earl’s own gardens! The English are crazy about sweet peas, their “poor man’s orchids.” Long before our Bozeman Sweet Pea Festival was a seed in our pea-pickin’ brains, a 1911 London sweet pea contest boasted over 10,000 entries! If you spend any time on the internet researching sweet peas, you will observe that most of the in-depth information about sweet peas originates from Great Britain. As a matter of fact, the sweet pea wound itself so tightly around British culture that you will find sweet peas in a number of extremely collectible china patterns (particularly the Royal Winston), in prints and paintings, and, of course, in gardens everywhere.
