  • Adaptive Strategies of the Centrospermeae Species with Different Photosynthetic Systems in the Semi-Arid and Saline Areas in Mt
    Quest Journals Journal of Research in Agriculture and Animal Science Volume 5 ~ Issue 1 (2018) pp: 15-27 ISSN(Online) : 2321-9459 www.questjournals.org Research Paper Adaptive Strategies of the Centrospermeae Species with Different Photosynthetic Systems in the Semi-Arid and Saline Areas in Mt. Kulal - Mt. Elgon Habitats in Kenya. Stephen F. Sikolia1 1. Department of Botany, School of Physical Sciences and Biological Sciences, Maseno University, Kenya. Correspondence to: Stephen F. Sikolia ABSTRACT: Centrospermeae species were collected at different sites along gradient of altitude and aridity in the semi-arid, saline and arid habitats in western region of Kenya. δ13C values and Kranz leaf anatomy were used to examine for C3, C4 C3-C4 intermediate and Crassulacean metabolism (CAM) species photosynthesis. 13 ẟ C values and Kranz leaf anatomy were used to differentiate the C3 plant species from the C4 species. The C4, C3, C3-C4 and CAM species were confirmed to be present in the Centrospermeae group in different proportionate percentage. Interspecific species occur in the group. The morphological, anatomical, physiological and biochemical adaptive strategies of the C3, C4,C3-C4and CAM species of the Centrospermeae group are discussed. 13 KEY WORDS: Centrospermeae, C4, C3, C3-C4 species,δ C values, Kranz leaf anatomy,adaptive strategies I. INTRODUCTION There is consensus that C3 pathway evolved first and wide spread in terrestrial and aquatic species and habitats (Sikolia, Onyango, Beck and Kinyamario, 2009[1]). The C4 syndrome is phylogenetic younger achievement and apparently evolved independently in monocots and dicot perhaps as many as twenty times (Quade and Cerling, 1995[2]; Edwards, Franceschi and Voznesenskaya, 2004[3]; Edward, Furbank, Hatch and Osmond, 2001[4] [1] Sikolia, 2016[5]).

Nevertheless, these natural matrices require effective decontamination steps before they might be considered for different industrial purposes. Irradiation techniques are being progressively acknowledged as feasible conservation methodologies, either for their high decontamination effectiveness, as well as for their innocuousness on most chemical and bioactive parameters of the material to be treated. Arenaria montana L. (Caryophyllaceae) is recognized for its phytochemical richness, having a relevant geographical distribution in the Southern Europe. Herein the effects of irradiation (gamma and electron beam up to 10 kGy) were evaluated by comparing the nutritional, chemical and antioxidant profiles in A.

As such, they were introduced in BUCF Herbarium. Arenaria herbarium Genus is represented in this herbarium by 30 taxa from which some are included even on the Red List of Romanian plants. The purpose of this study was to analyse the present situation of Arenaria Genus, as well as to describe its main species. The analysed material was comprised of 119 vouchers that were gathered between 1858-1985, mostly from our country and especially from Bucegi Mountains. The collection was enriched by specialists as well as through exchanges with foreign and national profile institutions. Arenaria Genus belongs to Caryophyllaceae Family grassed areas, while others appear as weeds amongst and contains plants with flowers. Some species are cultures.
