    Asteraceae | Plantz Africa about:reader?url=http://pza.sanbi.org/asteraceae pza.sanbi.org Asteraceae | Plantz Africa Introduction This is probably the largest family of flowering plants, with more than 25 000 species world-wide, growing from sea-level to the highest mountain peaks. It is absent only from Antarctica. In southern Africa it is also one of the biggest families of flowering plants with about 246 genera and 2 300 species. Many of the species have economic value. They show remarkable variation in growth form and general morphology because they occur in so many different localities and habitats. Description Description Almost all the features generally occurring in plants, can be found in this family! There are annual, biennial or perennial herbs, dwarf shrubs, shrubs, a few trees, some scramblers and aquatics. Some are succulent, whereas while others are spiny and some have milky sap. Many perennial species are adapted to survive the cold, dry winter season of the highveld by underground storage organs and producing annual stems in spring. The leaves can be arranged alternately, opposite or whorled along the stem; sometimes they are situated at the base of the stem (radical and rosulate) or in groups. Some have a petiole while others are sessile. The leaves can be simple with smooth margins or the margins can be toothed, lobed or variously dissected to such an extent that the leaves are actually compound with numerous leaf segments. Many species in the karroo and fynbos vegetation have small, needle-like leaves to survive the hot, dry summer seasons. These leaves look almost like the leaves of the genus Erica , and are called ericoid.

Autores para correspondencia: [email protected], [email protected] Manuscrito recibido el 1 de junio de 2010. Aceptado, tras revisión el 20 de junio de 2010 Resumen Este artículo es una revisión actualizada sobre los metabolitos secundarios de la familia de las Gentianaceae. Estas plantas se emplean en la medicina tradicional de numerosos países y presentan actividad biológica inte- resante. Después de haber detallado botánicamente esta familia de plantas, que ha sido y que sigue siendo muy estudiada, se recogen los estudios fitoquímicos sobre numerosas especies. Los metabolitos característicos son los xantonas, una clase de compuestos no muy difundidos en el mundo vegetal. Son característicos también derivados de los seco-iridoides, y algunos alcaloides. Palabras claves: Gentianaceae, actividad biológica, xantonas, secoiridoides, alcaloides. Abstract This paper is a review on the secondary metabolites of the Gentianaceae family. These plants are very well known as remedies in the traditional medicine of many countries because they present a number of biological activities. After a botanical presentation of this family, that is still studied, the phytochemical research of many species are reported. The most characteristic metabolites are xanthones, a class of natural products that is not very widespread in plants. Characteristic are also the seco-iridoids and alkaloids. Keywords: Gentianaceae, biological activities, xanthones, secoiridoids, alkaloids. For ma su ge ri da de ci tar: Vidari, G., P.

  • The Potential of South African Plants in the Development of New Medicinal Products ⁎ B.-E
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com South African Journal of Botany 77 (2011) 812–829 www.elsevier.com/locate/sajb Review The potential of South African plants in the development of new medicinal products ⁎ B.-E. Van Wyk Department of Botany and Plant Biotechnology, University of Johannesburg, P.O. Box 524, Auckland Park 2006, South Africa Received 2 July 2011; received in revised form 26 August 2011; accepted 26 August 2011 Abstract Southern Africa is an important focal point of botanical and cultural diversity but only a few plant species have hitherto become fully commer- cialised as medicinal products. In recent years there has been an upsurge in research and development activity, resulting in several new products and new crops. In this review, more than 90 of the best-known and most promising indigenous South African plants are listed and subjectively evaluated in the context of their potential for commercialisation as medicinal products for a variety of applications. The history of product devel- opment relating to the following species is briefly discussed and the plants and some of their products are illustrated: Agathosma betulina (buchu), Aloe ferox (bitter aloe), Artemisia afra (African wormwood), Aspalathus linearis (rooibos tea), Bulbine frutescens (burn jelly plant); Cyclopia gen- istoides (honeybush tea), Harpagophytum procumbens (devil's claw), Hoodia gordonii (hoodia, ghaap), Hypoxis hemerocallidea (“African pota- to”), Lippia javanica (fever tea), Mesembryanthemum tortuosum (=Sceletium tortuosum)(kanna, kougoed), Pelargonium sidoides (“Umckaloabo”), Siphonochilus aethiopicus (African ginger), Sutherlandia frutescens (=Lessertia frutescens) (cancer bush), Warburgia salutaris (pepperbark tree) and Xysmalobium undulatum (“Uzara”). The main factors that are apparently responsible for failure or success will be highlight- ed, especially the importance of marketing strategy, proof of concept and barriers to market entry.

  • External Features of Cypselas of Some Species of Compositae, with the Help of Lm
    Bidyut Kr. Jana et al. / International Journal of Pharma Sciences and Research (IJPSR) EXTERNAL FEATURES OF CYPSELAS OF SOME SPECIES OF COMPOSITAE, WITH THE HELP OF LM Bidyut Kr. Jana and Sobhan Kr. Mukherjee Taxonomy and Biosystematics Laboratory, Department of Botany, University of Kalyani !Email: [email protected] Abstract The present study deals with the detailed external features of cypselas in 9 species belonging to 7 genera of the family Compositae. All the studied species exhibit different external features. Except Inula ensifolia, all the studied species are homomorphic. Morphologically, pappus structure is also important. In the cypsela of Telekia speciosa, Aster alpinus , scaly pappus are present. In the cypsela of Elephantopus carolinianus, sitae type of pappus is present. In the cypselas of remaining studied species, barbellate pappus bristles are present. Layer of carpopodial cells are also variable and varies from 1-7 layers in studied species. In the cypsela of Aster alpines, stylopodium is enlarge and prominent. Among the studied cypselas, some cypselas are with slightly curved ( Inula ensifolia, Inula Britannica, Inula helenium ) in direction. Surface hairs are alwase, biseriately forked type. An artificial key is presented here to recognize the studied taxa at the specific level. Keywords: External features of cypselas, Compositae Introduction Asteraceae are a highly specialized and moderately advanced family of dicotyledons, containing 3 subfamilies, 17 tribes, 82 subtribes, 1535 genera and 23,000 species (Bremer, 1994 ). The indehiscent one seeded fruit of the Asteraceae is commonly called as cypsela, which is attached to the receptacle by carpopodium. The external features of cypselas are also variable and helps in the classification of taxa when, floral stage is absent.

  • Landscape Guidelines
    LANDSCAPE GUIDELINES 1. Introduction 1.1 General comment on Fransche Hoek Estate site The aim of the landscape design is to create a place where life can be celebrated and nature appreciated, where man lives in harmony with the natural environment and to create a landscape where agriculture, private properties, commercial and other facilities and nature blend into a coherent whole. The principles of biodiversity conservation permeate all aspects of the landscape design (see also “Fransche Hoek Estate, Landscape Design Framework” (3 August 2005). In the initial proposal, the estate is divided into three zones (see also Section 2). All drainage lines or river edges need to be rated as Zone 1. Any invasive or weed-like species on this estate has the potential to spread throughout the Berg River system and should thus be removed. There are currently enough problems with invasive species in this river system without irresponsibly adding more. Plant lists for Zones 1, 2 and 3 appear in Addendum 2 & 3. The hybridization of Protea species in the reserve area from plantings in Zone 2 is of concern. This problem is similarly evident in the Paarl Mountain Nature Reserve. The Estate has a responsibility to not contribute to the problem in the La Rochelle Reserve. Protea species that tend towards hybridization and that should not be grown on the estate at all include Protea neriifolia, Protea susannae, Protea longifolia, fertile Protea hybrids (most of them), Leucadendron conicum, Leucadendron macowanii, Leucadendron uliginosum, Leucadendron loeriense and Leucospermum patersonii. Leucospermum cordifolium and Leucospermum cordifolium hybrids should only be grown in Zone 3.
