BGBM Annual Report 2017–2019
NETWORKING FOR DIVERSITY Annual Report 2017 – 2019 2017 – BGBM BGBM Annual Report 2017 – 2019 Cover image: Research into global biodiversity and its significance for humanity is impossible without networks. The topic of networking can be understood in different ways: in the natural world, with the life processes within an organism – visible in the network of the veins of a leaf or in the genetic diversity in populations of plants – networking takes place by means of pollen, via pollinators or the wind. In the world of research, individual objects, such as a particular plant, are networked with the data obtained from them. Networking is also crucial if this data is to be effective as a knowledge base for solving global issues of the future: collaboration between scientific experts within and across disciplines and with stakeholders at regional, national and international level.

Snow White and Rose Red: Studies on the Contrasting Evolutionary Trajectories of the Genera Leucanthemum Mill
Snow White and Rose Red: Studies on the contrasting evolutionary trajectories of the genera Leucanthemum Mill. and Rhodanthemum B.H.Wilcox & al. (Compositae, Anthemideae) DISSERTATION ZUR ERLANGUNG DES DOKTORGRADES DER NATURWISSENSCHAFTEN (DR. RER. NAT.) DER FAKULTÄT FÜR BIOLOGIE UND VORKLINISCHE MEDIZIN DER UNIVERSITÄT REGENSBURG vorgelegt von Florian Wagner aus Burgstall (Mitwitz) Juli 2019 Das Promotionsgesuch wurde eingereicht am: 12.07.2019 Die Arbeit wurde angeleitet von: Prof. Dr. Christoph Oberprieler Unterschrift: ……………………………....... Florian Wagner iv Abstract Plant systematics, the study of taxonomy, phylogeny and evolutionary processes in plants has undergone considerable progress in the last decades. The application of modern molecular approaches and DNA-sequencing techniques in the field has led to an improved inventory of biodiversity and a better understanding of evolutionary processes shaping the biological diversity on our planet. The increased availability of molecular and genomic data has particularly facilitated the investigation of shallowly diverged and taxonomically complex taxon-groups, which is challenging due to minor morphological differences, low genetic differentiation and/or hybridization among taxa. The present thesis investigates species delimitation, hybridization and polyploidization in the recently diverged genera Leucanthemum Mill. and Rhodanthemum B.H. Wilcox & al. of the subtribe Leucantheminae K.Bremer & Humphries (Compositae, Anthemideae) by applying Sanger-, 454-pyro-, and restriction site associated -

Supplemental methods for: Geographic range dynamics drove hybridization in a lineage of angiosperms 1 1 1 2 1 R.A. FOLK , C.J. VISGER , P.S. SOLTIS , D.E. SOLTIS , R. GURALNICK 1Florida Museum of Natural History 2Biology, University of Florida 3Author for correspondence: [email protected] 1 Sequencing: Sequencing followed previously developed methods1 with the following modifications: library preparation was performed by RAPiD Genomics (Gainesville, FL; using TruSeq-like adapters as in Folk et al. 2015), the targeted insert size was > 200 bp, and sequencing used a 300-cyle (150 bp read) kit for a HiSeq 3000 instrument. The overall outgroup sampling (21 taxa total; Supplementary Table S1) was improved > 5 fold.2 This includes several representatives each of all lineages that have been hypothesized to undergo hybridization in the Heuchera group of genera. For the transcriptomes, reads were assembled against the low-copy nuclear loci from our targeted enrichment experiment, where the targets stripped of intronic sequence but assembly methods otherwise followed a previously developed BWA-based approach1. Transcriptomic reads were also mapped to a Heuchera parviflora var. saurensis chloroplast genome reference1 which was stripped of intronic and intergenic sequence. Assembly methods for target-enriched data followed the BWA-based approach1 directly. In practice, intronic sequence can be recovered from RNAseq data,3 but has consistently lower coverage (pers. obs.); moreover non-coding read dropout can be expected to be high for more divergent outgroups added here. For this reason, only coding reference sequences were used to assemble transcriptomic taxa. For nuclear analyses, reads were assembled with 277 references comprising the gene sequences used for bait design, with intronic sequences stripped. -

Vandermeer Nursery Moroccan Daisy
Moroccan Daisy Rhodanthemum hosmariense Height: 18 inches Spread: 24 inches Spacing: 20 inches Sunlight: Hardiness Zone: 5a Other Names: Chrysanthemum maresi var. hosmariense Description: Showy, white daisy-like flowers, with bright yellow centers, cover a mound of strong, flexible stems on this sub-shrub; blooms mid-summer; tends to like drier conitions; best in full sun but will tolerate bright shade; Moroccan Daisy flowers great for rock gardens Photo courtesy of NetPS Plant Finder Ornamental Features Moroccan Daisy is covered in stunning white daisy flowers with yellow eyes at the ends of the stems in mid summer. The flowers are excellent for cutting. Its fragrant ferny leaves remain bluish-green in colour with showy silver variegation throughout the season. The fruit is not ornamentally significant. Landscape Attributes Moroccan Daisy is an herbaceous perennial with a mounded form. Its relatively fine texture sets it apart from other garden plants with less refined foliage. This is a relatively low maintenance plant, and is best cleaned up in early spring before it resumes active growth for the season. Deer don't particularly care for this plant and will usually leave it alone in favor of tastier treats. It has no significant negative characteristics. Moroccan Daisy is recommended for the following landscape applications; - Mass Planting - Border Edging - General Garden Use - Container Planting Planting & Growing Moroccan Daisy will grow to be about 14 inches tall at maturity, with a spread of 24 inches. When grown in masses or used as a bedding plant, individual plants should be spaced approximately 20 inches apart. It grows at a medium rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 10 years. -

Historically, each of Anacapa’s islets has been subjected to periodic grazing by sheep, and the eastern islet has also had a sizeable population of introduced rabbits. In spite of these past perturbations, the recovery of the island’s vegetation has been remarkable since sheep removal in 1937. -
