Alnus Glutinosa Common Name
Plant Profiles: HORT 2242 Landscape Plants II Botanical Name: Alnus glutinosa Common Name: European alder, common alder, black alder Family Name: Betulaceae - birch family General Description: Alnus glutinosa is an intermediate size tree that can be grown single stem or clump. It has been a popular plant in the landscape due to its size, shape, winter texture and ability to grow in diverse landscape settings. European black alder is especially useful for wet sites and poor infertile sites as it has the ability to fix nitrogen in nodules on its root system. However, it is a non-native tree that has escaped cultivation and can now be found along rivers and other natural habitats in the Chicago area. According to The Morton Arboretum, this plant is invasive and should not be planted. Zone: 3-7 Resources Consulted: "Black alder." Trees & Plants. Morton Arboretum, 2013. Web. 26 Feb. 2014.

New Nomenclature Combinations in the Green Alder Species Complex

PhytoKeys 56: 1–6. doi: 10.3897/phytokeys.56.5225 Abstract The name Alnus viridis (Chaix) DC., based on Betula viridis Chaix (1785), has traditionally been attributed to green alders although it is based on a later basionym. Alnus alnobetula (Ehrh.) K. Koch based on Betula alnobetula Ehrh. (1783) is the correct name for green alders. In light of the increasing use and recognition of the name Alnus alnobetula (Ehrh.) K. Koch in the literature. I herein propose new nomenclatural combinations to account for the Japanese and Chinese subspecies respectively: Alnus alnobetula subsp. maximowiczii (Callier ex C.K. Schneid.) J. Chery and Alnus alnobetula subsp. mandschurica (Callier ex C.K. Schneid.) J. Chery. Recent phylogenetic analyses place these two taxa in the green alder species complex, suggesting that they should be treated as infraspecific taxa under the polymorphic Alnus alnobetula. Keywords Green alders, Alnus viridis, Alnus alnobetula, Betulaceae Introduction Characteristic to the genus, Alnus alnobetula (Ehrh.) K. Koch is an anemophilous shrub with carpellate catkins that develop into woody strobili. -

Alder—the genus (Tarrant and Trappe 1971). Alders also have been planted for Alnus—includes about 30 species of deciduous trees and wildlife food and cover (Liscinsky 1965) and for ornamental shrubs occurring in North America, Europe, and Asia and in use. European and red alders have been considered for use the Andes Mountains of Peru and Bolivia. Most alders are in biomass plantings for energy (Gillespie and Pope 1994) tolerant of moist sites and thus are commonly found along and are considered excellent firewood. In recent years, har streams, rivers, and lakes and on poorly drained soils; in vest and utilization of red alder has expanded greatly on the addition, some species occur on steep slopes and at high ele Pacific Coast of North America, where the species is used vations. The principal species found in North America are for paper products, pallets, plywood, paneling, furniture, listed in table 1. Many changes in the taxonomy of alder veneer, and cabinetry (Harrington 1984; Plank and Willits have been made over the years; in this summary, species are 1994). Red alder is also used as a fuel for smoking or curing referred to by their currently accepted names although in salmon and other seafood and its bark is used to make a red many cases the information was published originally under or orange dye (Pojar and MacKinnon 1994). -

Analyses of Hybrid Viability Across a Hybrid Zone Between Two Alnus Species Using Microsatellites and Cpdna Markers

The vast majority of previous studies have been focused on studies of maternal plants, but the offspring resulting from their crossing have not been much studied. Here, we use the variability of microsatellites and chloroplast DNA between these species and their putative hybrids to create an overall picture of the development of the hybrid zone and its predicted type. To elucidate the gene transfer within both species, the origins of individual ploidies and especially the role of triploid hybrids, a germination experiment was carried out linked with a flow cytometry study of the resulting seedlings. The tension zone model seems to offer the most adequate explanation of our observations, with selection against triploid hybrids and the spatial positioning of the hybrid zone. -

FORESTSERVICE RESEARCH NOTE NE-285 'OREST SE AGRICULTURE, 370 REED ROAD, BROOMALL, PA. 1'9008 RESULTS OF TREE AND SHRUB PLANTINGS ON LOW pH STRIP-MINE BANKS -WALTER H. DAVIDSON Research Forester Northeastern Forest Experiment Station, Princeton, 7W. Va. Abstract. Test plantings were established to evaluate the survival and growth of trees and shrubs on 10 acid strip mines in the bituminous region of Pennsylvania. Included in the test were five species of European alder, four birch species, black locust, syca- more, Scotch pine, autumn olive, sawtooth oak, bristly locust, and Japanese fleeceflower. After 11 years, data showed that two of the birches had highest rate of survival and best growth overall. On a few plots, European alder from a German seed source performed well. Scotch pine also performed well on a few plots. In general, survival and growth of all species was poor on spoils where the pH was less than 3.5. Revegetation of low pH strip-mine banks less than 4.0, is often cited as the reason why has been a problem since reclamation of strip revegetation has failed. Federal legislation has mines was first attempted. New legislation provided funds to reclaim orphan banks. Some has reduced this problem on current mining coal mining companies and private landown- operations. Pennsylvania strip-mine operators ers are attempting to reclaim orphan banks are now required to bury acid-producing over- without Federal assistance. However, recom- burden and spread topsoil on affected areas. mendations for tree and shrub species to plant Nevertheless, many acres of partially vege- on low pH spoil banks are limited. -

(2) Ecological distribution Green alder is widely distributed throughout interior, central, and northern Alaska across the Yukon Territory and interior Canada to Labrador, Newfoundland, and Greenland. It extends south through New England and the Great Lakes States, and into the Pacific Northwest. Disjunct populations are documented in south-central Pennsylvania and west- central North Carolina (1) Climate and elevation range Grows from sea level up to 1200m (2) Local habitat and abundance Most common native habitats are high mountains swamps, and bottom lands along streams. Plant strategy type / successional A. viridis is a light-demanding, fast-growing shrub that stage grows well on poorer soils. In many areas, it is a highly characteristic colonist of avalanche chutes in mountains, where potentially competing larger trees are killed by regular avalanche damage. Plant characteristics It is a large shrub or small tree 3–12 m tall with smooth grey bark even in old age. The leaves are shiny green with light green undersurfaces, ovoid, 3–8 cm long and 2–6 cm broad. -
