  • Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
    Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page.

  • Towards Resolving Lamiales Relationships
    Schäferhoff et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology 2010, 10:352 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/10/352 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Towards resolving Lamiales relationships: insights from rapidly evolving chloroplast sequences Bastian Schäferhoff1*, Andreas Fleischmann2, Eberhard Fischer3, Dirk C Albach4, Thomas Borsch5, Günther Heubl2, Kai F Müller1 Abstract Background: In the large angiosperm order Lamiales, a diverse array of highly specialized life strategies such as carnivory, parasitism, epiphytism, and desiccation tolerance occur, and some lineages possess drastically accelerated DNA substitutional rates or miniaturized genomes. However, understanding the evolution of these phenomena in the order, and clarifying borders of and relationships among lamialean families, has been hindered by largely unresolved trees in the past. Results: Our analysis of the rapidly evolving trnK/matK, trnL-F and rps16 chloroplast regions enabled us to infer more precise phylogenetic hypotheses for the Lamiales. Relationships among the nine first-branching families in the Lamiales tree are now resolved with very strong support. Subsequent to Plocospermataceae, a clade consisting of Carlemanniaceae plus Oleaceae branches, followed by Tetrachondraceae and a newly inferred clade composed of Gesneriaceae plus Calceolariaceae, which is also supported by morphological characters. Plantaginaceae (incl. Gratioleae) and Scrophulariaceae are well separated in the backbone grade; Lamiaceae and Verbenaceae appear in distant clades, while the recently described Linderniaceae are confirmed to be monophyletic and in an isolated position. Conclusions: Confidence about deep nodes of the Lamiales tree is an important step towards understanding the evolutionary diversification of a major clade of flowering plants. The degree of resolution obtained here now provides a first opportunity to discuss the evolution of morphological and biochemical traits in Lamiales.

Zjhra, and many others [estimated 25 families, 1041 genera, and ca. 21,878 species in Lamiales] The goal of this project is to produce a working infraordinal classification of the Lamiales to genus with information on distribution and species richness. 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. For further information on the project and to provide information for future versions, please contact R. Olmstead via email at [email protected], or by regular mail at: Department of Biology, Box 355325, University of Washington, Seattle WA 98195, USA.

  • Diasciabarberae
    Diascia barberae J.D. Hooker Twinspur (Diascia cordata) Other Common Names: Barber’s Diascia, Diascia. Family: Scrophulariaceae. Cold Hardiness: Cold hardy to USDA zone 7 (some reports of 5, although this may actually be mistaken related species or hybrids), but not tolerant of summer heat in our region; hence it is used here as a winter or transition season annual. Foliage: Evergreen or dying to the ground in cold climates; opposite; simple; broadly ovate; ½O to 1O long; palmately veined or nearly so; margins shallowly toothed to nearly entire; tip acute to obtuse; base rounded to cordate; glabrous; sessile to the stem; medium glossy green to a hint of blue-green in color. Flower: Small upturned terminal racemes which are profusely borne; individual flowers two-lipped, the upper lip in four lobes, the lower lip in a single larger recurved lip; individual flowers small, ½O to ¾Oin diameter, but numerous; perfect; mostly shades of pink to mauve, some pale salmons can be seen; extreme interior of the throat is usually yellow; pretty and blooming over an extended season. Fruit: not ornamental. Stem / Bark: Stems — green turning brown; four-sided; slender; smooth; Buds — foliose; very tiny; 1 < /16O long; green; Bark — not applicable, herbaceous; older stems smooth and brown in color. Habit: Twinspur is a sprawling herbaceous perennial or annual 6O to 12O tall spreading 12O to 18O (24O) in diameter; overall texture is medium-fine. Cultural Requirements: Full sun to partial shade; plants will last later into the summer in partial shaded locations; requires a well drained soil, but is not overly drought tolerant; apply regular fertilization and irrigation to maintain bloom, but avoid over-watering; deadheading may encourage additional blooms, but is not required.
