Vascular Plants and a Brief History of the Kiowa and Rita Blanca National Grasslands
United States Department of Agriculture Vascular Plants and a Brief Forest Service Rocky Mountain History of the Kiowa and Rita Research Station General Technical Report Blanca National Grasslands RMRS-GTR-233 December 2009 Donald L. Hazlett, Michael H. Schiebout, and Paulette L. Ford Hazlett, Donald L.; Schiebout, Michael H.; and Ford, Paulette L. 2009. Vascular plants and a brief history of the Kiowa and Rita Blanca National Grasslands. Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS- GTR-233. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 44 p. Abstract Administered by the USDA Forest Service, the Kiowa and Rita Blanca National Grasslands occupy 230,000 acres of public land extending from northeastern New Mexico into the panhandles of Oklahoma and Texas. A mosaic of topographic features including canyons, plateaus, rolling grasslands and outcrops supports a diverse flora. Eight hundred twenty six (826) species of vascular plant species representing 81 plant families are known to occur on or near these public lands. This report includes a history of the area; ethnobotanical information; an introductory overview of the area including its climate, geology, vegetation, habitats, fauna, and ecological history; and a plant survey and information about the rare, poisonous, and exotic species from the area. A vascular plant checklist of 816 vascular plant taxa in the appendix includes scientific and common names, habitat types, and general distribution data for each species. This list is based on extensive plant collections and available herbarium collections. Authors Donald L. Hazlett is an ethnobotanist, Director of New World Plants and People consulting, and a research associate at the Denver Botanic Gardens, Denver, CO. -
Anti-Trichomonad Activities of Different Compounds from Foods, Marine Products, and Medicinal Plants: a Review Mendel Friedman1* , Christina C
Friedman et al. BMC Complementary Medicine and Therapies (2020) 20:271 BMC Complementary https://doi.org/10.1186/s12906-020-03061-9 Medicine and Therapies REVIEW Open Access Anti-trichomonad activities of different compounds from foods, marine products, and medicinal plants: a review Mendel Friedman1* , Christina C. Tam2, Luisa W. Cheng2 and Kirkwood M. Land3 Abstract Human trichomoniasis, caused by the pathogenic parasitic protozoan Trichomonas vaginalis, is the most common non-viral sexually transmitted disease that contributes to reproductive morbidity in affected women and possibly to prostate cancer in men. Tritrichomonas foetus strains cause the disease trichomoniasis in farm animals (cattle, bulls, pigs) and diarrhea in domestic animals (cats and dogs). Because some T. vaginalis strains have become resistant to the widely used drug metronidazole, there is a need to develop alternative treatments, based on safe natural products that have the potential to replace and/or enhance the activity of lower doses of metronidazole. To help meet this need, this overview collates and interprets worldwide reported studies on the efficacy of structurally different classes of food, marine, and medicinal plant extracts and some of their bioactive pure compounds against T. vaginalis and T. foetus in vitro and in infected mice and women. Active food extracts include potato peels and their glycoalkaloids α-chaconine and α-solanine, caffeic and chlorogenic acids, and quercetin; the tomato glycoalkaloid α- tomatine; theaflavin-rich black tea extracts and bioactive theaflavins; plant essential oils and their compounds (+)-α- bisabolol and eugenol; the grape skin compound resveratrol; the kidney bean lectin, marine extracts from algae, seaweeds, and fungi and compounds that are derived from fungi; medicinal extracts and about 30 isolated pure compounds. -

In this chapter, we attempt to describe the major types of vegetation cover in this vast region as they occurred in pre- Columbian times and outline the conditions that support them. Examining the large-scale phytogeographic regions characterized by each major cover type (see Fig. I), we provide basic information on geology, geological history, topography, and climate; describe variants of physiognomy (vegetation structure) and geography; discuss transitions; and examine some floristic patterns and affinities within and among these regions. -

Vascular Plant Species of the Comanche National Grassland in United States Department Southeastern Colorado of Agriculture
Vascular Plant Species of the Comanche National Grassland in United States Department Southeastern Colorado of Agriculture Forest Service Donald L. Hazlett Rocky Mountain Research Station General Technical Report RMRS-GTR-130 June 2004 Hazlett, Donald L. 2004. Vascular plant species of the Comanche National Grassland in southeast- ern Colorado. Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS-GTR-130. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 36 p. Abstract This checklist has 785 species and 801 taxa (for taxa, the varieties and subspecies are included in the count) in 90 plant families. The most common plant families are the grasses (Poaceae) and the sunflower family (Asteraceae). Of this total, 513 taxa are definitely known to occur on the Comanche National Grassland. The remaining 288 taxa occur in nearby areas of southeastern Colorado and may be discovered on the Comanche National Grassland. The Author Dr. Donald L. Hazlett has worked as an ecologist, botanist, ethnobotanist, and teacher in Latin America and in Colorado. He has specialized in the flora of the eastern plains since 1985. His many years in Latin America prompted him to include Spanish common names in this report, names that are seldom reported in floristic pub- lications. He is also compiling plant folklore stories for Great Plains plants. Since Don is a native of Otero county, this project was of special interest.

Manilkara Adans. (Sapotaceae) Ocorrente Na Região Semiárida Do Nordeste Brasileiro
MANILKARA ADANS. (SAPOTACEAE) OCORRENTE NA REGIÃO SEMIÁRIDA DO NORDESTE BRASILEIRO Ana Flavia Trabuco Duarte1; Claudia Elena Carneiro2 1. Bolsista PIBIC/CNPq, Graduanda em Ciências Biológicas, Universidade Estadual de Feira de Santana, e- mail: [email protected] 2. Orientador, Departamento de Ciências Biológicas, Universidade Estadual de Feira de Santana, e-mail: [email protected] PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Morfologia; taxonomia; florística. INTRODUÇÃO De acordo com as análises filogenéticas do Grupo Filogenético de Angiospermas (APG IV 2016), Sapotaceae está no clado Asterídea, dentro da ordem Ericales, apresentando uma maior similaridade filogenética com Ebenaceae e Pentaphylacaceae. A família compreende 58 gêneros com aproximadamente 1.250 espécies predominantemente pantropical, com alta diversidade em regiões tropicais e subtropicais da América do Sul e Ásia, encontradas especialmente em florestas úmidas (Swenson & Anderberg 2005), sendo facilmente reconhecida pela combinação do látex, com o arranjo e venação das folhas (Gentry 1993). Sapotaceae ocupa lugar de destaque na flora brasileira, com 202 espécies distribuídas em 12 gêneros, sendo que 101 espécies são endêmicas do país (Carneiro et al. 2015). Manilkara Adans. é considerado o quarto maior gênero de Sapotaceae, com 78 espécies pantropicais, sendo 30 nas Américas Central e do Sul, 35 na África e 13 no Sudeste da Ásia (Armstrong et al. 2010). No Neotrópico, ocorre na costa litorânea e na região amazônica do Brasil, além do Paraguai, Uruguai e Chile, sendo caracterizado pelo cálice em duas séries, presença de estaminódios e a forma do hilo (Pennington 1990). Segundo Andrade (1957), no Brasil o gênero apresenta maior representatividade em áreas de Restinga e Mata Atlântica. Almeida Jr. (2010) realizou estudos que esclareceram a distribuição geográfica do gênero e o estado de conservação das espécies para o Nordeste do Brasil, registrando 12 espécies que se diferenciam, principalmente, pela quantidade de flores, tamanho de pecíolo e pedicelo, filotaxia, variação da folha e do indumento. -
