These transitions involve the spread of male and female sterility mutations resulting in modifications to the gender of ancestral hermaphrodites. Despite sustained interest in the aob.oxfordjournals.org gender strategies of plants, the structural and developmental bases for transitions in sexual systems are poorly understood. † Methods Here, floral morphology, patterns of fertility, pollen-tube growth and floral development are investi- gated in two populations of the scandent shrub Mussaenda pubescens (Rubiaceae), native to southern China, by means of experimental and open-pollinations, light microscopy, fluorescence microscopy and scanning elec- tron microscopy combined with paraffin sectioning. † Key Results Mussaenda pubescens has perfect (hermaphroditic) flowers and populations with two style-length morphs but only weak differentiation in anther position (stigma-height dimorphism).

    Conservation through use: Lessons from the Mesoamerican dry forest This book examines the concept of ‘conservation through use’, using the conservation of tree species diversity in Mesoamerican tropical dry forest in Honduras and Mexico as a case study. It discusses the need to develop conservation strategies based both on a botanical determination of those species most in need of conservation and an Conservation through use: understanding of the role these trees play in local livelihoods. Based on a detailed analysis of smallholder farming systems in southern Honduras and coastal Oaxaca Lessons from the and a botanical survey of trees and shrubs in different land use systems in both study areas, the fi ndings confi rm the importance of involving the local population Mesoamerican dry forest in the management and conservation of Mesoamerican tropical dry forest.

  • Aleuroglandulus Subtilis Bondar (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) in Florida1 Ian Stocks2
    Entomology Circular No. 430 Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services March 2014 Division of Plant Industry FDACS‐P‐01874 Aleuroglandulus subtilis Bondar (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) in Florida1 Ian Stocks2 INTRODUCTION: Aroids (family Araceae), such as Colocasia spp., Alocasia spp., Philodendron spp. and Caladium spp., are popular indoor and patio plants in the United States, and in the subtropical climate of Florida they are also common elements in exterior landscapes. Of the >70 species of whiteflies (Aleyrodidae) in Florida, only a few have been collected from aroids. Of those, only Crenidorsum sp., Bemisia tabaci Gennadius (‘sweetpotato whitefly’) and Aleuroglandulus subtilis Bondar are common enough to be considered occasional pests. Aleuroglandulus subtilis, described originally from Brazil from Chomelia oligantha (Rubiaceae), has been in Florida since the 1920s, occurs in Cuba and Jamaica (Florida State Collection of Arthropods slide collection data), and is reported throughout most of the Caribbean (Bondar 1923; Evans 2008). It was recently reported from Hawaii from three collections (2006, 2010, 2011), all from aroids and present at moderate to severe levels (Nagamine and Garcia 2011). Martin (2005) revised the taxonomy of Aleuroglandulus in his treatment of whiteflies of Belize, and synonomized A. malangae Russell and A. emmae Russell with A. subtilis; previously, all slides in the Florida State Collection of Arthropods (FSCA) were identified as either A. malangae (the majority) or A. emmae. A recent collection of A. subtilis from an infested aroid in Florida was heavily parasitized by Amitus sp. wasps (Platygasteridae). Parasitism of Aleuroglandulus subtilis in Florida has not previously been noted, and the populations in Hawaii appeared to be free of parasitoids.

A survey gathered information on plant species traded by local nurseries, species recommended in restoration plans (PRADs), species effectively introduced in areas under restoration, and species present in preserved fragments of Cerrado. Results summed 566 Cerrado woody species from 80 botanical families of which 171 species were traded by local nurseries, 277 were recommended in PRADs, 190 were effectively used in restoration projects, and 434 species were sampled in fragments of native Cerrado. We found low similarity between species composition available in nurseries, recommended in PRADs, used in restoration projects and present in preserved fragments of native Cerrado. Such results indicate a poor connection between steps related to the selection of native woody species that make up initial plant communities on sites under ecological restoration. Keywords: Cerrado, plant diversity, rehabilitation. 1.

  • New Plants from Venezuela
    NEW PLANTS FROM VENEZUELA. By S. F. BLAKE. At intervals during the last nine years Mr. Henry Pittier, until recently a member of the staff of the United States Department of Agriculture, has made large collections of plants in Venezuela, 1rlis specimens, amounting to several thousand numbers, although as yet only partly identified, have added largely to our knowledge of the flora of that country. The new species collected by Mr. Pittier and described in the present paper are derived in part from his earlier collections and in part from the material forwarded by him since his return to Caracas in 1919. Nearly half of the new species here described are from the small but very interesting collections made by Dr. Alfredo Jahn in the high paramos of Tachira and Merida at various dates during the past dozen years. Several new species collected by Dr. Jahn were described a few years ago by Mr. Paul C. Stand ley, but a consider- able amount of the material has remained unnamed, and many species not before represented have been found in Dr, Jahn's recent collections. Of the new plants here described the most interesting are three of the Asteraceae- Riencowrtia ovata belongs to a genus new to Venezuela, and Otopappm austiralis to one new to South America. Podocoma bartsiaefoUa is the only northern representative of a genus with several species in Brazil, extending into Uruguay and Para- guay, and a single outlier in Australia. The description of a new moss collected by Mr. Pittier and named by Mr. R. S. Williams is included in this paper at the request of the author* ERPODIACEAE.
