Weed Risk Assessment for Phalaris Paradoxa L. (Poaceae)
Weed Risk Assessment for Phalaris United States paradoxa L. (Poaceae) – Awned Department of canary-grass Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service September 27, 2016 Version 1 Photos of Phalaris paradoxa from Rignanese (2007). Agency Contact: Plant Epidemiology and Risk Analysis Laboratory Center for Plant Health Science and Technology Plant Protection and Quarantine Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service United States Department of Agriculture 1730 Varsity Drive, Suite 300 Raleigh, NC 27606 Weed Risk Assessment for Phalaris paradoxa Introduction Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ) regulates noxious weeds under the authority of the Plant Protection Act (7 U.S.C. § 7701-7786, 2000) and the Federal Seed Act (7 U.S.C. § 1581-1610, 1939). A noxious weed is defined as “any plant or plant product that can directly or indirectly injure or cause damage to crops (including nursery stock or plant products), livestock, poultry, or other interests of agriculture, irrigation, navigation, the natural resources of the United States, the public health, or the environment” (7 U.S.C. § 7701- 7786, 2000). We use the PPQ weed risk assessment (WRA) process (PPQ, 2015) to evaluate the risk potential of plants, including those newly detected in the United States, those proposed for import, and those emerging as weeds elsewhere in the world. The PPQ WRA process includes three analytical components that together describe the risk profile of a plant species (risk potential, uncertainty, and geographic potential; PPQ, 2015). At the core of the process is the predictive risk model that evaluates the baseline invasive/weed potential of a plant species using information related to its ability to establish, spread, and cause harm in natural, anthropogenic, and production systems (Koop et al., 2012). -

The Best Management Practice [BMP] of resources with more biological management in system agriculture is the prime solution to overcome this problem. Pest causes 33 % production losses nationally. The major pest weed alone cause more than 10 % production loss. Because of climate change impacts the weed pest biodiversity is changing. Ambrosia, Conyza, Cynoglossum, Cyperus, Eichhornia, Elatine, Oryza (wild), Parthenium, Phalaris, Polypogon, Viola etc. alien anthophytes are invaded in newer regions and dispersed in many crop fields around the globe and their menace is gradually arrogance forcing urgent Ecosafe management to protect environment for increasing productivity as well as food and oil security. Utilization of these alien invasive weeds as compost making, green manuring, bio pesticides, breeding, biogas, pharmaceutical etc. -

Medicinal Grass Resources from Sambhal District of Rohilkhand Region (U.P.), India
MEDICINAL GRASS RESOURCES FROM SAMBHAL DISTRICT OF ROHILKHAND REGION (U.P.), INDIA Rajkumar1 and Beena Kumari2* 1,2Angiosperms Taxonomy Laboratory, Department of Botany, Hindu College, Moradabad.244001(U.P) Abstract Grasses are the members of Poaceae (Gramineae) family which are the most vital part in our life as food, medicine, cattle-fodder and many different things. Sambhal district is represented by 6 subfamilies and 14 tribes of family Poaceae. Subfamily Panicoideae (24 species) had the highest number of species followed by Chloridoideae (9 species), Pooideae (5 species) and Bambusoideae (1 species), Ehrhartoideae (1species), Arundinoideae (1 species) each, while Centothecoideae, Aristidoideae, Anomochlooideae, Danthonioideae, Pharoideae, and Puelioideae are not represented in this area. We recorded total 41 species out of which 18 grass species used in fungal infection, fever, haematuria, urinary diseases, intestinal worm, asthma, jaundice, cough, wounds, snakebite, rheumatism etc. Key words: Grasses, diseases, medicinal value, Sambhal District. I. INTRODUCTION Poaceae or Gramineae is a large and nearly ubiquitous family of monocotyledonous flowering plants known as grasses. Poaceae includes the cereal grasses, bamboos and the grasses of natural grassland and cultivated lawns and pasture. The grass family is one of the most widely distributed and abundant groups of plants on Earth. Grasses are found on almost every continent and are absent only from Antarctica. Grasses are the signature of Poaceae with more than 10,290 species (Clark, 2004; Clayton et al., 2012). It is the fourth largest family of flowering plants, surpassed only by Asteraceae (24,000 species), Orchidaceae (20,000 species) and Fabaceae (18,000 species). Some notable work on Indian grasses are done by Achariyar and Tadulinga (1921), Blatter (1935), Bor (1960), Duthie (1883,88), Raizada (1961,66) Singh (1971), Jain et al., (1975) Vedprakash et al. -
Phalaris, Poaceae)
Evolutionary history of the canary grasses (Phalaris, Poaceae) Stephanie M. Voshell Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Biological Sciences Khidir W. Hilu, Committee Chair Robert H. Jones Brent D. Opell John G. Jelesko May 1, 2014 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: Phalaris, polyploidy, phylogenetics, phylogeography, chromosome evolution Evolutionary history of the canary grasses (Phalaris, Poaceae) Stephanie M. Voshell ABSTRACT Canary grasses (Phalaris, Poaceae) include 21 species widely distributed throughout temperate and subtropical regions of the world with centers of diversity in the Mediterranean Basin and western North America. The genus contains annual/perennial, endemic/cosmopolitan, wild, and invasive species with basic numbers of x=6 (diploid) and x=7 (diploid/tetraploid/hexaploid). The latter display vastly greater speciation and geographic distribution. These attributes make Phalaris an ideal platform to study species diversification, dispersal, historic hybridization, polyploidy events, and chromosome evolution in the grasses. This body of research presents the first molecular phylogenetic and phylogeographic reconstruction of the genus based on the nuclear ITS and plastid trnT-F DNA regions allowing species relationships and the importance of polyploidy in speciation to be assessed. Divergence dates for the genus were determined using Bayesian methods (BEAST, version 1.6.2) and historic patterns of dispersal were analyzed with RASP (version 2.1b). Self-incompatibility and the feasibility of hybridization between major groups within the genus were studied with a series of greenhouse experiments. Acetocarmine and fluorescent staining techniques were used to study the morphology of the chromosomes in a phylogenetic context and the nuclear DNA content (C values) was quantified using flow cytometry. -

The case of a constructed wetland in a 1 2 Mediterranean urban context 3 4 Abstract 5 6 7 Constructed wetlands (CW) are considered a successful tool to treat wastewater in many countries: 8 9 5 their success is mainly assessed observing the rate of pollution reduction, but CW can also 10 11 contribute to the conservation of ecosystem services. Among the many ecosystem services 12 13 provided, the biodiversity of constructed wetlands has received less attention. 14 The EcoSistema Filtro (ESF) of the Molentargius-Saline Regional Natural Park is a constructed 15 16 wetland situated in Sardinia (Italy), built to filter treated wastewater, increase habitat diversity and 17 18 10 enhance local biodiversity. A floristic survey has been carried out yearly one year after the 19 20 construction of the artificial ecosystem in 2004, observing the modification of the vascular flora 21 22 composition in time. The flora of the ESF accounted for 54% of the whole Regional Park’s flora; 23 alien species amount to 12%, taxa of conservation concern are 6%. Comparing the data in the years, 24 25 except for the biennium 2006/2007, we observed a continuous increase of species richness, together 26 27 15 with an increase of endemics, species of conservation concern and alien species too. Once the 28 29 endemics appeared, they remained part of the flora, showing a good persistence in the artificial 30 31 wetland.
