Plant Sale 2017 Descriptions Common Name Botanical Name Type Height Light Soil Type Comments Small-medium, woody shrub with fine textured, leafy, pendulous branches. Attractive and colorful hanging flowers with yellow petals surrounded by red calyces all season. Good in hanging Trailing Flowering Maple Abutilon megapotamicum Tropical 18-24 in. Full to part sun Average well drained baskets and combos. Large dramatic species with pink toned new foliage hardening into rich green arching fronds. Grows great in our hot humid summers, but must have high humidity to perform well as a houseplant. Grow in a large Wardian Case as its home (this is far too large for a small or narrow terrarium); nonetheless, if given a bright windowsill and a carefully tended pebble tray, it will also become an impressive specimen given time and humidity as a houseplant. Always a star in any hobby greenhouse. Always a popular and much sought after dramatic rarer plant! Fern, Maidenhair Silver Dollar Adiantum peruvianum Tropical 18-24 in.

All recognized taxa will be clades; adherence to Linnaean ranks is optional. Synonymy is very incomplete (comprehensive synonymy is not a goal of the project, but could be incorporated). Although I anticipate producing a publishable version of this classification at a future date, my near- term goal is to produce a web-accessible version, which will be available to the public and which will be updated regularly through input from systematists familiar with taxa within the Lamiales.

  • A Phylogenetic Study of the Tribe Antirrhineae: Genome Duplications and Long-Distance Dispersals from the Old World to the New World 1

    A Phylogenetic Study of the Tribe Antirrhineae: Genome Duplications and Long-Distance Dispersals from the Old World to the New World 1

    RESEARCH ARTICLE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF BOTANY A phylogenetic study of the tribe Antirrhineae: Genome duplications and long-distance dispersals from the Old World to the New World 1 Ezgi Ogutcen2 and Jana C. Vamosi PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Antirrhineae is a large tribe within Plantaginaceae. Mostly concentrated in the Mediterranean Basin, the tribe members are present both in the Old World and the New World. Current Antirrhineae phylogenies have diff erent views on taxonomic relationships, and they lack homogeneity in terms of geographic distribution and ploidy levels. This study aims to investigate the changes in the chromosome numbers along with dispersal routes as defi nitive characters identifying clades. METHODS: With the use of multiple DNA regions and taxon sampling enriched with de novo sequences, we provide an extensive phylogeny for Antir- rhineae. The reconstructed phylogeny was then used to investigate changes in ploidy levels and dispersal patterns in the tribe using ChromEvol and RASP, respectively. KEY RESULTS: Antirrhineae is a monophyletic group with six highly supported clades. ChromEvol analysis suggests the ancestral haploid chromosome number for the tribe is six, and that the tribe has experienced several duplications and gain events. The Mediterranean Basin was estimated to be the origin for the tribe with four long-distance dispersals from the Old World to the New World, three of which were associated with genome duplications. CONCLUSIONS: On an updated Antirrhineae phylogeny, we showed that the three out of four dispersals from the Old World to the New World were coupled with changes in ploidy levels. The observed patterns suggest that increases in ploidy levels may facilitate dispersing into new environments.

  • Lianas and Climbing Plants of the Neotropics: Plantaginaceae

    Lianas and Climbing Plants of the Neotropics: Plantaginaceae

    GUIDE TO THE GENERA OF LIANAS AND CLIMBING PLANTS IN THE NEOTROPICS PLANTAGINACEAE By Mark T. Strong (Jan 2021) A widely distributed family of primarily herbs, subshrubs or shrubs with about 100 genera and ca. 1,900 species worldwide. In the Neotropics, they are represented by about 45 genera and ca. 400 species. Five genera and 14 species are treated below as climbing plants. These occur in a diversity of habitats from desert scrub to montane cloud forests. Diagnostics: In vegetative condition, climbing Plantaginaceae have stems that are quadrangular or terete; leaves are opposite, alternate or sometimes verticillate, glabrous or glandular- pubescent, simple, and stipules are absent. In the order Lamiales, the quadrangular stems and simple opposite leaves of some Plantaginaceae Russelia syringifolia Schltdl. & Cham., photo by J. might be confused with Acanthaceae, Amith Gesneriaceae, Lamiaceae and Verbenaceae. Acanthaceae generally have ovaries with hook-like placental tissue and capsules with explosive dehiscence while in Gesneriaceae, ovaries are unilocular with parietal placentation. Lamiaceae and Verbenaceae have 2-ovulate ovaries and the fruit is a 4-parted schizocarp or dry indehiscent drupe. GENERAL CHARACTERS 1. STEMS. Quadrangular (sometimes winged) or terete in cross section, commonly solid, but hollow in some species of Russelia (e.g. R. campechiana Standl.; fig. 1a), xylem with deep phloem wedges in species of Russelia (e.g., R. contrerasii B.L. Turner; fig. 1b). Vessels narrow and commonly radially disposed (Metcalfe & Chalk, 1957). No visible exudates reported for the group. 2. PUBESCENCE. Glabrous or glandular-pubescent. 3. LEAVES. Alternate, opposite, verticillate or opposite proximally and alternate distally, the blades deltoid to cordiform, hastate or sagittate at base with palmate venation, or sometimes linear to lanceolate or ovate-lanceolate with pinnate venation, entire or with dentate margins, glabrous or glandular-pubescent; stipules absent.

  • Diversity of Nectar Amino Acids in the Fritillaria(Liliaceae)

    Diversity of Nectar Amino Acids in the Fritillaria(Liliaceae)

    www.nature.com/scientificreports Corrected: Author Correction OPEN Diversity of nectar amino acids in the Fritillaria (Liliaceae) genus: ecological and evolutionary implications Katarzyna Roguz 1*, Andrzej Bajguz 2, Magdalena Chmur2, Agnieszka Gołębiewska2, Agata Roguz3 & Marcin Zych 1* Nectar is considered to be a primary food reward for most pollinators. It mostly contains sugars, but also has amino acids. The signifcance of the concentration and composition of amino acids in nectar is often less understood than that of its volume, sugar concentration and composition. However, there is a trend towards a broader approach in ecological research, which helps to understand nectar properties in an ecological context. The genus Fritillaria, exhibiting great diversity in fower morphology, nectar composition, and dominant pollinators, allows for the possibility to study some of the above. We studied the concentration and composition of amino acids in the nectar of 38 Fritillaria species attracting diferent groups of pollen vectors (bees, fies, passerines, and hummingbirds). The fowers of fritillaries produced nectar with a varying composition and concentration of amino acids. These diferences were mostly associated with the pollinator type. The nectar of passerine bird-pollinated species was rich in amino acids, whereas humming bird-pollinated produced low amino acid nectar. Contrary to previous reports nectar of the insect-pollinated species did not contain a higher amount of proline. Two non-protein amino acids, sarcosine and norvaline, were detected in the foral nectar for the frst time. Nectar is the most crucial foral reward for animal pollinators1. Primarily, it is a sugar solution composed of sucrose, fructose and glucose, in varying proportions.
