  • 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.

  • Generalized Olfactory Detection of Floral Volatiles in the Highly Specialized Greya-Lithophragma Nursery Pollination System
    Arthropod-Plant Interactions https://doi.org/10.1007/s11829-021-09809-5 ORIGINAL PAPER Generalized olfactory detection of foral volatiles in the highly specialized Greya-Lithophragma nursery pollination system Florian P. Schiestl1 · Erika A. Wallin2 · John J. Beck3 · Magne Friberg4 · John N. Thompson5 Received: 20 October 2020 / Accepted: 2 February 2021 © The Author(s) 2021 Abstract Volatiles are of key importance for host-plant recognition in insects. In the pollination system of Lithophragma fowers and Greya moths, moths are highly specialized on Lithophragma, in which they oviposit and thereby pollinate the fowers. Floral volatiles in Lithophragma are highly variable between species and populations, and moths prefer to oviposit into Litho- phragma fowers from populations of the local host species. Here we used gas chromatography coupled with electroanten- nographic detection (GC-EAD) to test whether Greya moths detect specifc key volatiles or respond broadly to many volatiles of Lithophragma fowers. We also addressed whether olfactory detection in Greya moths varies across populations, consistent with a co-evolutionary scenario. We analyzed fower volatile samples from three diferent species and fve populations of Lithophragma occurring across a 1400 km range in the Western USA, and their sympatric female Greya politella moths. We showed that Greya politella detect a broad range of Lithophragma volatiles, with a total of 23 compounds being EAD active. We chemically identifed 15 of these, including the chiral 6, 10, 14-trimethylpentadecan-2-one (hexahydrofarnesyl acetone), which was not previously detected in Lithophragma. All investigated Lithophragma species produced the (6R, 10R)-enantiomer of this compound. We showed that Greya moths detected not only volatiles of their local Lithophragma plants, but also those from allopatric populations/species that they not encounter in local populations.

Abstract: is eld guide is a tool for the identication of 119 common forbs found in the sagebrush rangelands and grasslands of the northern Great Basin. ese forbs are important because they are either browsed directly by Greater Sage-grouse or support invertebrates that are also consumed by the birds. Species are arranged alphabetically by genus and species within families. Each species has a botanical description and one or more color photographs to assist the user. Most descriptions mention the importance of the plant and how it is used by Greater Sage-grouse. A glossary and indices with common and scientic names are provided to facilitate use of the guide. is guide is not intended to be either an inclusive list of species found in the northern Great Basin or a list of species used by Greater Sage-grouse; some other important genera are presented in an appendix.

  • Statement of Work
    Validation and Verification of Rare and Mislabeled Plant Specimens at Whiskeytown National Recreation Area: Final Report Windy Bunn, Biological Science Technician June 2006 Introduction Whiskeytown National Recreation Area’s vascular plant list is based largely on an inventory conducted by David Biek (a California Native Plant Society volunteer) from 1985 to 1987. Biek’s flora (1988) and associated voucher specimens contain the most comprehensive information on the park’s flora gathered to date. However, findings from recent vegetation related projects in the park (Smith et al 2003, Mathiasen 2005, Bunn 2005, Bunn et al 2005, Bradley et al 2006) have lead to a growing uncertainty in the accuracy of the park’s plant list. Of particular concern are the findings of Bunn (2005) that illustrate that 13 out of 26 CNPS listed rare plants on the park’s list are either misidentifications or range extensions of the species. Due to this growing uncertainty and its potential to compromise the park’s NPS Biological Inventory goals, Whiskeytown staff drafted a proposal to begin validating the accuracy of the park’s vascular plant list. During the 2004 certification of the park’s plant list in NPSpecies, the existence of a voucher specimen in the park’s herbarium or the Shasta College Herbarium was a primary factor in determining a species “Park Status” rating. Therefore, the first priority of the proposal was to obtain some measure of the reliability of these voucher specimens as evidence for a species presence in the park. Thanks to funding provided by the Klamath Network Inventory and Monitoring Program, voucher specimens from the Whiskeytown and Shasta College Herbaria were validated by experts at the Jepson Herbarium.

Berenbaum, University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, Urbana, IL, and approved January 15, 2019 (received for review June 16, 2018) A major challenge in evolutionary biology is to understand how insects (10–12). Single volatiles can mediate interactions be- complex traits of multiple functions have diversified and codiversified tween plants and pollinators (13, 14), but complex floral scent across interacting lineages and geographic ranges. We evaluate bouquets are common in many taxa (15). These bouquets may intra- and interspecific variation in floral scent, which is a heighten the attraction of preferred pollinators, but they may complex trait of documented importance for mutualistic and function simultaneously as cues for resource detection by seed antagonistic interactions between plants, pollinators, and herbi- predators or herbivores (16–19) and mediate interactions with vores. We performed a large-scale, phylogenetically structured microbes (20, 21). Hence, floral scent should be sensitive to se- study of an entire plant genus (Lithophragma, Saxifragaceae), of lection imposed by the local assemblage of mutualist and an- which several species are coevolving with specialized pollinating tagonist insects, and it may vary among populations within floral parasites of the moth genus Greya (Prodoxidae).

Peridiscaceae, comprising Peridiscus, Soyauxia, and Whittonia, are an enigmatic angiosperm family of uncertain composition and placement. Although some have placed Soyauxia in other families (e.g., Flacourtiaceae, Medusandraceae), rather than in Peridiscaceae, sequence data for five genes (material of Whittonia could not be obtained) provide strong support for a clade of Soyauxia and Peridiscus. This evidence, combined with the strong morphological similarity of Peridiscus and Whittonia, support a monophyletic Peridiscaceae of three genera. Molecular analyses of a three-gene (rbcL, atpB, 18S rDNA) dataset for 569 taxa indicate that Peridiscus + Soyauxia together with Daphniphyllaceae form a clade that is sister to the rest of Saxifragales. Maximum likelihood and Bayesian analyses of Saxifragales using a five-gene (rbcL, atpB, matK, 18S rDNA, 26S rDNA) dataset place Peridiscaceae (posterior probability of 1.00) Peridiscaceae as sister to the remainder of Saxifragales, albeit without high posterior probability (pp = 0.78).
