HEARN Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona 85721, USA ([email protected]) ABSTRACT To understand evolutionary patterns and processes that account for anatomical diversity in relation to ecology and life form diversity, anatomy of storage roots and stems of the genus Adenia (Passifloraceae) were analyzed using an explicit phylogenetic context. Over 65,000 measurements are reported for 47 quantitative and qualitative traits from 58 species in the genus. Vestiges of lianous ancestry were apparent throughout the group, as treelets and lianous taxa alike share relatively short, often wide, vessel elements with simple, transverse perforation plates, and alternate lateral wall pitting; fibriform vessel elements, tracheids associated with vessels, and libriform fibers as additional tracheary elements; and well-developed axial parenchyma. Multiple cambial variants were observed, including anomalous parenchyma proliferation, anomalous vascular strands, successive cambia, and a novel type of intraxylary phloem.

  • Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
    Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page.

  • 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.

It is similar to and was initially identified as P. f l a m m e a from which it can be distinguished by the cuneate leaf blade bases (vs. rounded), slightly discoloured leaves (vs. strongly discoloured), inflorescences of fewer flowers (1–3 vs. 3–6), olive-green calyx when dry (vs. blackened), and yellow corolla (vs. orange red). Piriqueta crenata is only known from a single small savanna nested in the semiarid Chapada Diamantina region, close to areas under anthropogenic influence. Therefore, we evaluate the species as Critically Endangered. Key words: floristics, Neotropics, savanna, taxonomy.

Tel. & Fax: +914852260832, Email: [email protected], Web:b: www.kau.edu/prsvkm Common names Passion fruit is also known as gragranadilla, grenadilla, maracuja, granadiglia, passssiflorai azzurra, fiore della passione, passionaria, pasiflora,pas passiflore, fleur de la passion, passissiflore bleue, blaue passionsblume, pasifloro, passionionera, flor de la passió, passionsblomst, grenadiadilo, flôr di passion, mburukuja, maracujá, fior 'd paspassion and passionsblomma. General names for both, yellow and purple, in Spanish are granadildilla, parcha, parchita, parchita maracuya, orr CCeibey (Cuba); in Portuguese, maracuja peroba; in French, grenadille, or couzou. The purple foform may be called purple, red, or black granadilla,, or,o in Hawaii, lilikoi; in Jamaica, mountain sweeeet cup; in Thailand, linmangkon. The yellow form is widely known as yellow passion fruit; is callealled yellow lilikoi in Hawaii; golden passion fruit in AAustralia; parcha amarilla in Venezuela. In the 16th century, Spanish Chrihristian missionaries stumbled upon the Passionn FFlower and adopted it as a symbol of the death of Christ due to its unique morphological charaaracteristics. Spanish colonists associated the flowersrs with the suffering of Christ: the corona referfers to the crown of thorns, the three stigmas to the nailsna at the cross, … in other words: the commonon name refers to the passion of Christ. Thus, the Englnglish prefix "passion" derives from the passionn oof Christ suggested by the prominent four-branchedd sstyle that appears in the flowers.

  • The Evolutionary Fate of Rpl32 and Rps16 Losses in the Euphorbia Schimperi (Euphorbiaceae) Plastome Aldanah A
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The evolutionary fate of rpl32 and rps16 losses in the Euphorbia schimperi (Euphorbiaceae) plastome Aldanah A. Alqahtani1,2* & Robert K. Jansen1,3 Gene transfers from mitochondria and plastids to the nucleus are an important process in the evolution of the eukaryotic cell. Plastid (pt) gene losses have been documented in multiple angiosperm lineages and are often associated with functional transfers to the nucleus or substitutions by duplicated nuclear genes targeted to both the plastid and mitochondrion. The plastid genome sequence of Euphorbia schimperi was assembled and three major genomic changes were detected, the complete loss of rpl32 and pseudogenization of rps16 and infA. The nuclear transcriptome of E. schimperi was sequenced to investigate the transfer/substitution of the rpl32 and rps16 genes to the nucleus. Transfer of plastid-encoded rpl32 to the nucleus was identifed previously in three families of Malpighiales, Rhizophoraceae, Salicaceae and Passiforaceae. An E. schimperi transcript of pt SOD-1- RPL32 confrmed that the transfer in Euphorbiaceae is similar to other Malpighiales indicating that it occurred early in the divergence of the order. Ribosomal protein S16 (rps16) is encoded in the plastome in most angiosperms but not in Salicaceae and Passiforaceae. Substitution of the E. schimperi pt rps16 was likely due to a duplication of nuclear-encoded mitochondrial-targeted rps16 resulting in copies dually targeted to the mitochondrion and plastid. Sequences of RPS16-1 and RPS16-2 in the three families of Malpighiales (Salicaceae, Passiforaceae and Euphorbiaceae) have high sequence identity suggesting that the substitution event dates to the early divergence within Malpighiales.

    GUIDE TO THE GENERA OF LIANAS AND CLIMBING PLANTS IN THE NEOTROPICS PASSIFLORACEAE By Christian Feuillet & P. Acevedo-Rodríguez (Feb 2020) A predominantly tropical family with few species reaching warm-temperate regions, of about 15-17 genera and 850 species of tendrilled lianas or vines, or sometimes shrubs, small trees, or annuals with a perennial rootstock or a fleshy caudex. Represented in the Neotropics by 4 genera and about 600 species, occupying diverse habitats, from savanna to flooded forests, but most abundant in tropical rain forests on terra firme. Most species occur at low to middle elevations, but some grow above the tree line on Andean slopes. Diagnostics: Distinguished by the flowers with Dilkea sp., photo by L. Marinho an extrastaminal corona and usually a gynophore, and by the common presence of petiolar nectaries. Sterile collections of Passifloraceae may be confused with members of Cucurbitaceae as both families may have simple, alternate leaves, axillary tendrils, and petiolar nectaries. However, Passifloraceae is differentiated by the presence of stipules, unbranched axillary tendrils (trifid in Dilkea) [vs. exstipulate and axillary-lateral tendrils (forming a 90º angle with the petiole) that are commonly branched in Cucurbitaceae]. Also, resembles Vitaceae but tendrils and inflorescence in this family are opposite to the leaves, not axillary. 1 General Characters 1. STEMS. Stems are woody or herbaceous depending on the species. Woody, mature stems are usually 1 to 2 cm in diameter, although in cultivated Passiflora they may reach 8 cm or more in diameter, and up to 25 m in length. Stems are cylindrical (figs. 1a & b), trigonous (fig.

    Flora of South Australia 5th Edition | Edited by Jürgen Kellermann PASSIFLORACEAE1 C.J. Brodie2 Woody or herbaceous vines, climbing by axillary tendrils, sometimes herbs or shrubs or trees (not in Australia); leaves alternate, very rarely opposite, simple, lobed or rarely compound, with or without glands on petioles and stem; stipules minute or conspicuous, usually persistent, occasionally deciduous. Flowers in 1 to many flowered cymes, rarely racemes, actinomorphic, bisexual or functionally unisexual, sessile or pedicellate; sepals (3–) 5 (–8); petals alternate to the sepals, petals equal to sepals in number, free or connate at the base; corona absent or present with 1 or more rows of appendages, filaments or scales usually forming a bright and showy structure between the petals and stamens; stamens (4–) 5 (–many), usually alternate with the petals, filaments free or connate on the hypanthium or on androgynophore; anthers 2-locular, dehiscing longitudinally; ovary superior, (2–) 3 (–6) united carpels, unilocular, parietal placentation; styles free or usually basally connate. Fruit a berry or capsule; seeds often with a fleshy aril and bony testa. About 27 genera and 935 species (APGIII 2009, Stevens 2010) found throughout the tropics and subtropical regions with some species reaching temperate areas. In Australia there are 4 native species in 2 genera (Passiflora and Adenia Forssk.) with none native to S.A., but there are 3 potentially naturalised species of Passiflora in S.A. Malesherbiaceae and Turneraceae are long known close allies of the family and are now included in Passifloraceae (APGIII 2009). The androgynophore is a column composed of the ovary on a long stalk to which the stamens are attached.
