  • Comparative Study of the Resistance of Six Hawaii-Grown Bamboo
    Insects 2011, 2, 475-485; doi:10.3390/insects2040475 OPEN ACCESS insects ISSN 2075-4450 www.mdpi.com/journal/insects/ Article Comparative Study of the Resistance of Six Hawaii-Grown Bamboo Species to Attack by the Subterranean Termites Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki and Coptotermes gestroi (Wasmann) (Blattodea: Rhinotermitidae) Nirmala K.

Received: 13 October 2011; in revised form: 25 October 2011 / Accepted: 26 October 2011 / Published: 3 November 2011 Abstract: Bamboo is widely grown and utilized as a construction material around the world, particularly in the tropics. At present, there are about 70 bamboo species and varieties recorded from Hawaii. The objective of our study was to determine the relative resistance of six Hawaii-grown bamboo species to attack by Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki and Coptotermes gestroi (Wasmann). Four-week laboratory feeding trials were performed as described in standard E1-09 of the American Wood Protection Association (AWPA 2009). Samples of each of the six bamboo species were individually exposed to 200 termites (with 10% soldiers); and termite mortality, wood mass loss, and visual appearance of the samples (on a scale of 0–10) were recorded at the conclusion of the trail. Mean mass losses of the six species as a result of termite feeding ranged from 13–29%; with the two most resistant bamboo species, Gigantocholoa pseudoarundinacea and Bambusa oldhamii, demonstrating significantly greater resistance to termite attack than the most susceptible bamboo species, Guadua anguistifolia, with both termite species.

  • Evolution of the Bamboos
    Wysocki et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology (2015) 15:50 DOI 10.1186/s12862-015-0321-5 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Evolution of the bamboos (Bambusoideae; Poaceae): a full plastome phylogenomic analysis William P Wysocki1*, Lynn G Clark2, Lakshmi Attigala2, Eduardo Ruiz-Sanchez3 and Melvin R Duvall1 Abstract Background: Bambusoideae (Poaceae) comprise three distinct and well-supported lineages: tropical woody bamboos (Bambuseae), temperate woody bamboos (Arundinarieae) and herbaceous bamboos (Olyreae). Phylogenetic studies using chloroplast markers have generally supported a sister relationship between Bambuseae and Olyreae. This suggests either at least two origins of the woody bamboo syndrome in this subfamily or its loss in Olyreae. Results: Here a full chloroplast genome (plastome) phylogenomic study is presented using the coding and noncoding regions of 13 complete plastomes from the Bambuseae, eight from Olyreae and 10 from Arundinarieae. Trees generated using full plastome sequences support the previously recovered monophyletic relationship between Bambuseae and Olyreae. In addition to these relationships, several unique plastome features are uncovered including the first mitogenome-to-plastome horizontal gene transfer observed in monocots. Conclusions: Phylogenomic agreement with previous published phylogenies reinforces the validity of these studies. Additionally, this study presents the first published plastomes from Neotropical woody bamboos and the first full plastome phylogenomic study performed within the herbaceous bamboos. Although the phylogenomic tree presented in this study is largely robust, additional studies using nuclear genes support monophyly in woody bamboos as well as hybridization among previous woody bamboo lineages. The evolutionary history of the Bambusoideae could be further clarified using transcriptomic techniques to increase sampling among nuclear orthologues and investigate the molecular genetics underlying the development of woody and floral tissues.

  • Chapter 2 Priority Species of Bamboo
    Chapter 2 Priority Species of Bamboo Andrew Benton Abstract There are over 1,250 species in approximately 75 genera of woody bamboos in the world. Bamboos are native to Africa, the Americas, Asia and Oceania and have been introduced into Europe. This chapter summarizes a revised list of ‘Priority Species of Bamboo and Rattan’, compiled by the International Network for Bamboo and Rattan (INBAR). Keywords Arundinaria ssp. • Bambusa ssp. • Cephalostachyum ssp. • Chusquea ssp. • Dendrocalamus ssp. • Gigantochloa ssp. • Guadua ssp. • Melocanna ssp. • Ochlandra ssp. • Oxytenanthera ssp. • Phyllostachys ssp. • Schizostachyum ssp. • Thyrsostachys ssp. There are over 1,250 species of woody bamboos in the world, in approximately 75 genera. They are native to Africa, the Americas, Asia and Oceania and have been introduced into Europe. Bamboos are naturally found as understorey plants in forests and grow in habitats from the humid tropics, through a range of humid sub-tropical forest types, to temperate regions including northern parts of China, Japan, Korea and the foothills of the Himalayas. They vary in stature from 50 cm (Sasa borealis in Japan) to 40 m or more (Dendrocalamus giganteus in tropical Asia). Most do not comprise the dominant vegetation unless they are cultivated, such as the huge areas of Phyllostachys pubescens in China, but the Melocanna baccifera forests of Northeast India, Bangladesh and Myanmar are a major excep- tion, as are the Guadua forests of western Amazonia, which cover 120,000 ha (Dransfield and Widjaja 1995; Judziewicz et al. 1999). With 75 genera of bamboos growing in a wide range of different habitats, it is not surprising that there is much variation in the characteristics they exhibit.
