  • New Species of Schizostachyum (Poaceae–Bambusoideae) from the Andaman Islands, India
    BLUMEA 48: 187–192 Published on 7 April 2003 doi: 10.3767/000651903X686169 NEW SPECIES OF SCHIZOSTACHYUM (POACEAE–BAMBUSOIDEAE) FROM THE ANDAMAN ISLANDS, INDIA MUKTESH KUMAR & M. REMESH Botany Division, Kerala Forest Research Institute, Peechi 680-653, Trichur, Kerala, India SUMMARY Two new species of Schizostachyum Nees: S. andamanicum and S. kalpongianum, are described and illustrated. Key words: Schizostachyum, Andaman Islands, India. INTRODUCTION During the revisionary studies on Indian bamboos the authors could undertake a survey in the Andaman Islands. Five species of bamboos, namely Bambusa atra, Dinochloa an- damanica, Gigantochloa andamanica, Bambusa schizostachyoides, and Schizostachyum rogersii have so far been reported from the Andaman Islands (Munro, 1868; Gamble, 1896; Brandis, 1906; Parkinson, 1921). As a result of exploring different parts of the is lands two interesting bamboos were collected. Critical examination revealed that they belonged to the genus Schizostachyum Nees and hitherto undescribed. The genus Schizostachyum was described by Nees in 1829 based on Schizostachyum blumei. This genus is represented by about 45–50 species distributed in tropical and sub- tropical Asia from southern China throughout the Malaysian region, extending to the Pacific islands with the majority of species in Malaysia (Dransfield, 1983, 2000; Ohrnberger, 1999; Wong, 1995). The genus is characterised by sympodial rhizomes; erect or straggling thin-walled culms; many branches of the same length arising from the node; indeterminate inflores­ cence; absence of glumes in the spikelets; presence of lodicules; slender ovary with long, glabrous stiff style which is hollow around a central strand of tissue; anthers usu- ally with blunt apex. The bamboos collected from the Andaman Islands have straggling culms and are similar to Schizostachyum gracile (Munro) Holttum in certain characters but differ in several other characters.

  • Comparison of the Anatomical Characteristics and Physical and Mechanical Properties of Oil Palm and Bamboo Trunks
    Journal of Wood Science (2018) 64:186–192 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10086-017-1687-3 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Comparison of the anatomical characteristics and physical and mechanical properties of oil palm and bamboo trunks Suthon Srivaro1 · Jantira Rattanarat2 · Peerada Noothong2 Received: 19 June 2017 / Accepted: 11 December 2017 / Published online: 17 January 2018 © The Japan Wood Research Society 2018 Abstract The aim of this work was to investigate the structure–property relationships of two different monocotyledon trunks: bamboo (Bambusa blumeana Schultes) and oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq). Anatomical characteristics (fraction of fibers) and physical (density, water uptake, and swelling in the radial direction) and mechanical (modulus of rupture and modulus of elasticity) properties of bamboo and oil palm trunks were examined. The results showed that the examined properties of both species were mainly governed by fibers. Those of bamboo were mostly greater. Functions relating most of the examined properties to the density of both species were finally achieved. Based on the results obtained, it is suggested that bamboo has a higher potential for structural application, while oil palm wood is more likely to be utilized for non-structural purposes.

    E Anti-inflammatory activity of methanolic extract of Bambusa vulgaris leaves RTICL William M. Carey, Jeevan Mani Babu Dasi1, Nimmagadda V. Rao1, Krishna Mohan Gottumukkala A Deparment of Pharmacognosy and Ethnopharmacology, University College of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Kakatiya University, Warangal and 1Department of Pharmacology, V.L. College of Pharmacy, Raichur, India Bambusa vulgaris, commonly known as “Bamboo,” possesses various pharmacological activities including anti-inflammatory activity. The present study is designed to investigate anti-inflammatory effect of methanolic extract of B. vulgaris (MEBV) on rats and mice. The anti-inflammatory effect is investigated employing acute inflammatory models: formaldehyde-induced paw edema, acetic acid-induced vascular permeability, subacute anti-inflammatory model: cotton pellet granuloma, estimation of plasma MDA and RIGINAL carrageenan-induced peritonitis. MEBV (100, 200 and 400 mg/kg, p.o) exhibited a dose-dependent and significant inhibition (P <0.01) in all the experimental models. Preliminary phytochemical screening revealed the presence of flavonoids, carbohydrates, glycosides, O proteins, and alkaloids. The extract produces no mortality in the dose up to 2000 mg/kg, p.o. The results obtained suggest marked anti-inflammatory activity of the MEBV and support the traditional use of this plant in some painful and inflammatory conditions.

  • Plant Life of Western Australia
    INTRODUCTION The characteristic features of the vegetation of Australia I. General Physiography At present the animals and plants of Australia are isolated from the rest of the world, except by way of the Torres Straits to New Guinea and southeast Asia. Even here adverse climatic conditions restrict or make it impossible for migration. Over a long period this isolation has meant that even what was common to the floras of the southern Asiatic Archipelago and Australia has become restricted to small areas. This resulted in an ever increasing divergence. As a consequence, Australia is a true island continent, with its own peculiar flora and fauna. As in southern Africa, Australia is largely an extensive plateau, although at a lower elevation. As in Africa too, the plateau increases gradually in height towards the east, culminating in a high ridge from which the land then drops steeply to a narrow coastal plain crossed by short rivers. On the west coast the plateau is only 00-00 m in height but there is usually an abrupt descent to the narrow coastal region. The plateau drops towards the center, and the major rivers flow into this depression. Fed from the high eastern margin of the plateau, these rivers run through low rainfall areas to the sea. While the tropical northern region is characterized by a wet summer and dry win- ter, the actual amount of rain is determined by additional factors. On the mountainous east coast the rainfall is high, while it diminishes with surprising rapidity towards the interior. Thus in New South Wales, the yearly rainfall at the edge of the plateau and the adjacent coast often reaches over 100 cm.

    Journal of Bamboo & Rattan 37 J.Bamboo and Rattan,Vol. 17,Nos. 2, pp. 36 - 52 (2018) © KFRI (2018) Economic analysis of cultivation of bamboo (Bambusa balcooa Roxb. and Dendrocalamus stocksii Munro.) in Konkan belt of Maharashtra, India Sruthi Subbanna1 and SyamViswanath2* 1Institute of Wood Science and Technology, Malleswaram, Bangalore 2Kerala Forest Research Institute, Peechi, Kerala ABSTRACT :The past decade has seen an increasing impetus of growing bamboo in India. There has also been an increase in availability of micropropagated plantlets in substantial quantities. Both the reasons combined is making farmers explore bamboo cultivation as an alternative to traditional agriculture and horticulture crops. In this stusy, the economics associated with growing two bamboo species viz. Bambusa balcooa Roxb., a relatively new addition in the Konkan belt of Maharashtra and Dendrocalamus stocksii Munro., traditionally grown bamboo species in the region have been studied. The study projects that the potential of economic benefit from D. stocksii (₹ 2,28,473 or $3,147 ha-1 year-1) which is relatively greater than that of B. balcooa (₹ 1,99,715 or $2,752 annually ha-1year-1) and could primarily be attributed to greater number of new culms that emerge annually in D. stocksii (16.5±0.81) as compared to B. balcooa (7.2±0.58) for medium density block plantations. The input cost for growing the two bamboo species also varies considerably and better B/C ratio (6.02 and 5.70) was observed in D. stocksii as compared to B. balcooa (4.00 and 3.93). The study indicates that although both species are beneficial to the farmers, higher culm emergence and better culm and clump characteristics makes D.

Received: 28 January 2014; in revised form: 2 May 2014 / Accepted: 13 May 2014 / Published: 20 May 2014 Abstract: Traditional agrosilvopastoral systems have been an important component of the farming systems and livelihoods of thousands of ethnic minority people in the uplands of Mainland Southeast Asia. Drawing on a combination of qualitative and participatory inquiries in nine ethnic minority communities, this study emphasizes the complex articulation of local farmers’ knowledge which has been so far excluded from governmental development and conservation policies in the northern uplands of Thailand and Laos. Qualitative analysis of local knowledge systems is performed using the Agroecological Knowledge Toolkit (AKT5) software. Results show that ethnic minorities in the two countries perceive large ruminants to be a highly positive component of local forest agro-ecosystems due to their contribution to nutrient cycling, forest fire control, water retention, and leaf-litter dispersal.

  • THE BAMBOOS of NEPAL and BHUTAN PART II: Arundinaria, Thamnocalamus , Borinda, and Yushania (Gramineae: Poaceae, Bambusoideae)
    EDINB. J. BOT. 51(2): 275–295 (1994) THE BAMBOOS OF NEPAL AND BHUTAN PART II: Arundinaria, Thamnocalamus , Borinda, and Yushania (Gramineae: Poaceae, Bambusoideae) C. M. A. S TAPLETON * This paper continues the systematic treatment of the bamboos of Nepal and Bhutan, covering four hardy temperate genera with semelauctant inflorescences and 3 stamens from the subtribe Arundinariinae Bentham. Arundinaria Michaux has leptomorph rhizomes, while Thamnocalamus Munro, Yushania Keng f., and the new genus Borinda have pachymorph rhizomes. The separation of these and related Sino-Himalayan genera is discussed. Sinarundinaria Nakai is treated as a synonym of Fargesia Franchet, a genus that is not known from the Himalayas. A new treatment of Himalayan Thamnocalamus species is given, including the description of two new subspecies of Thamnocalamus spathiflorus (Trin.) Munro, subsp . nepalensis and subsp . occidentalis, and one new variety, bhutanensis. T. aristatus is treated as a synonym of T. spathiflorus subsp. spathiflorus, and Fargesia crassinoda Yi is transferred and given new status as Thamnocalamus spathiflorus (Trin.) Munro var. crassinodus (Yi) Stapleton. Two new species of Borinda are described: B. chigar from West Nepal and B. emeryi from East Nepal. Six species of Fargesia from Tibet are transferred to Borinda, which thus comprises eight species. STATUS AND S EPARATION OF THE G ENERA Bamboos from the mountains of the Indian subcontinent and China with 3 stamens and terete culms were all placed in Arundinaria Michaux until late in the 19th century, when two genera for bamboos with spathate inflorescences were described. Munro (1868) described Thamnoca- lamus as a Himalayan genus with groups of one to four racemes at the tips of branchlets, each raceme being enclosed in a spathe.

  • Bamboos in Manual of Afforestation in Nepal
    MANUAL OF AFFORESTATION IN NEPAL J. K. Jackson Silviculturist, Forestry Research Project with sections on Bamboos by C.M.A. Stapleton and Daphne by J.—P. Jeanrenaud Nepal-United Kingdom Forestry Research Project Forest Survey and Research Office Department of Forest Kathmandu, Nepal 1987 Bamboos Gramineae by C.M.A. Stapleton Occurrence and importance Until recently little was known about the identity, distribution, and uses in Nepal of the different species of bamboo. The standard reference, Gamble (1896), is not at all adequate for identification purposes in Nepal, and the herbarium specimens available are not well determined. This is understandab1e as Nepal has not been adequately covered by bamboo taxonomists in the past, and also as accurate identification of bamboo specimens requires both flowers and vegetative material. As most bamboos do not flower frequently and many species drop all their leaves and culm sheaths when they do flower, these are not usually available together, so that specimens are fragmentary. A few publications have named species from Nepal, but these have often been more guesswork than accurate identification. However, Seeland (1980) studied the names and uses of the seven bamboo species known near a village in east Nepal and successfully identified the five most important. Acharya (1975) wrote a sensible feasibility study of bamboo as the basis of cottage industry expansion in central Nepal without attempting specific identification. He used the three categories into which bamboo species are most commonly grouped in Nepali: bans, nigalo, and malingo. These three groups probably constituted a more rational taxonomy at that time than the official genera.
