Introduction 1.1 Proposal details Eco Logical Australia (ELA) was commissioned by Acumen Development Solutions to prepare a Bushfire Management Plan (BMP) to support a Local Structure Plan being lodged over Multiple Lots Caporn Street, Wanneroo (hereafter referred to as the subject site; Figure 1; Figure 2). The entire subject site is within a designated bushfire prone area as per the Western Australia State Map of Bush Fire Prone Areas (DFES 2019; Figure 3), which triggers bushfire planning requirements under State Planning Policy 3.7 Planning in Bushfire Prone Areas (SPP 3.7; WAPC 2015) and reporting to accompany submission of the Structure Plan in accordance with the associated Guidelines for Planning in Bushfire Prone Areas v 1.3 (the Guidelines; WAPC 2017). This assessment has been prepared by ELA Bushfire Consultant James Leonard with quality assurance undertaken by ELA Senior Bushfire Consultant, Daniel Panickar (FPAA BPAD Level 3 Certified Practitioner No. BPAD37802-L3). 1.2 Purpose and application of the plan The primary purpose of this BMP is to act as a technical supporting document to inform planning assessment. This BMP is also designed to provide guidance on how to plan for and manage the bushfire risk to the subject site through implementation of a range of bushfire management measures in accordance with the Guidelines. 1.3 Environmental considerations Some bushfire prone areas also have high biodiversity values. SPP 3.7 policy objective 5.4 recognises the need to consider bushfire risk management measures alongside environmental, biodiversity and conservation values. Environmental approvals for the development are being obtained and impacts associated with bushfire protection measures have been considered through consultation with the project team. Some retention and revegetation is proposed within the subject site and this has been accounted for in the post development Bushfire Hazard Level assessments. A summary of the retention considerations is provided below and depicted in Figure 2: • Within the Public Open Space (POS) areas, it is noted that clearing/thinning of vegetation will be required for drainage, POS facilities etc. Areas to be retained are yet to be determined and will be finalised through the subsequent planning processes (e.g. Structure Plans and subdivision); and • It is not anticipated that any revegetation within POS areas will be undertaken. These considerations are addressed further in section 2 and any changes to revegetation and/or landscaping will be addressed in future BMPs. © ECO LOGICAL AUSTRALIA PTY LTD 1 Figure 1: Site Overview Joondalup (!

    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List What is the summary for and where does it come from? This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available. For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are notnot included included in in the the list. list. • The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect. All species names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all species locations.

A phylogenetic analysis of monocots and related dicots was conducted, using a four-gene matrix consisting of two genes from the plastid genome (matK and rbcL) and two from the mitochondrial genome (atpA/atp1 and cob). The taxon sample includes 101 monocots and 36 dicots, and all four genes were sampled for all 137 taxa. Jackknife support was assessed for clades resolved by the four-gene analysis, and compared to support for the same clades by each of the four three-gene subset matrices, in order to quantify the degree to which each gene contributed to or detracted from support for each clade.

  • Isolation and Characterization of Epiphytic Orchidaceous Mycorrhizas Associated with the Populations of Rhynchostylis Retusa from Kangra Valley, Himachal Pradesh
    Isolation and characterization of epiphytic Orchidaceous Mycorrhizas associated with the populations of Rhynchostylis retusa from Kangra valley, Himachal Pradesh A dissertation submitted in the partial fulfilment of the requirement for the award of the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE IN MICROBIOLOGY Under the supervision of: Prof M. Sudhakara Reddy Co supervisor: Dr. Anil Kumar By Yadvinder Bhardwaj (Reg No. 301205013) Department of Biotechnology Thapar University, Patiala-147004 Punjab (India) JULY 2014 i i ii iii Abstract Orchids are most extravagant group of flowering plants and are getting depleted and threatened due to habitat destruction, macroclimatic changes, shifting cultivation, overexploitation and developmental activities. Orchids produce the smallest seeds (nearly microscopic in size) of any flowering plant. These dust-like seeds are produced in great numbers, often over a million seeds per plant and lack an endosperm, resulting in a small embryo covered only by a thin protective wall. This lack of storage tissues for food reserves and protection makes the seeds extremely vulnerable to their environment, resulting in a high mortality rate unless optimum conditions are found for germination. The rate of seed germination in nature is very poor, that is, 2-5%. The symbiotic association between epiphytic orchids and mycorrhizal fungi is vital for essential nutrient supply during germination and seed establishment. Most of the mycorrhizal fungi of orchids fall into a non- sporing group known as Rhizoctonia, Rhizoctonia solani is a common symbiont of the members of Orchidaceae. Rhynchostylis retusa(L.) Bl. is a epiphytic orchid species found in Kangra, Himachal Pradesh, India. The ITS region is highly variable among fungal species, allowing to discrimination between even closely related species-based mycological studies at the sub-generic level and used for fungal species identification.

  • Native Vascular Plant Taxa SWAFR
    SWAFR - IBRA - Native Vascular Plant Taxa Paul Gioia, Science and Conservation Division, Department of Parks and Wildlife Report generated on 22/06/2016 11:08:17 AM This analysis uses a pro tem definition of the SWAFR that served to define the study area. It was based on the collection of IBRA 6.1 bioregions most closely approximating the original definition of the Southwest Province by Beard (1980). Data for this report were derived from a snapshot taken from WAHERB on 18/05/2015 for Gioia & Hopper (2016) paper. Criteria for data extraction and analysis were: 1. All vascular plants 2. Species-rank names where the typical subspecies also existed were renamed to the typical subspecies to avoid counting duplicate taxa 3. Native vascular taxa with current names Note: 1. This report contains information generated from intersecting the supplied polygon layer LOCAL_SWFIBR with the point species occurrence layer WAHERB_FILT_NATIVE. 2. Endemism is calculated based on the records available to this analysis and is not necessarily authoritative.

Accepted: April 19, 2019 Data deposition: This project has been deposited at the NCBI Sequence Read Archive under the accession BioProject (PRJNA313089). Abstract Mechanisms of genome evolution are fundamental to our understanding of adaptation and the generation and maintenance of biodiversity, yet genome dynamics are still poorly characterized in many clades. Strong correlations between variation in genomic attributes and species diversity across the plant tree of life suggest that polyploidy or other mechanisms of genome size change confer selective advantages due to the introduction of genomic novelty.
