A pesar de nuestras claras intenciones en lo referente al cumplimiento de los plazos, no hemos podido cumplirlos. Como excusa fundamental, apunte- mos a las dificultades que presentan diversos géneros de la familia –tan asende- reada en floras, monografías e incluso en trabajos de jardinería–, en los que re- sulta muy ardua la solución de numerosísimos problemas nomenclaturales –e incluso el buceo previo en el océano de la bibliografía. Nos ha sido concedida la financiación de que hablábamos, para el quinque- nio 1998-2002 [Proyecto PB96-0849, del programa Sectorial Promoción Gene- ral del Conocimiento, gestionado por la Subdirección General de Proyectos de Investigación Científica y Técnica, que depende de la Dirección General de Enseñanza Superior e Investigación Científica (DGESIC), del Ministerio de Educación y Cultura]; aun cuando no se aprobó el total del presupuesto solicita- do, sí al menos un aceptable porcentaje que, a los cinco equipos (Badajoz, Barcelona, Madrid, Salamanca y Sevilla), ha de permitirles trabajar sin agobios en los cinco referidos años. A más de las decisiones respecto al Comité Editor de cada uno de los volú- menes, anunciadas en 1997, otra que posteriormente se tomó, en forma colegia- da, crea la figura de un Coordinador General de la obra, coincidente con el in- vestigador principal del proyecto –en este momento, S. Castroviejo–, quien ha de ocuparse de “ordenar el tráfico” de rutina y procurar que siempre queden cu- biertas las necesidades perentorias. Los colaboradores no implicados en la edi- ción del presente volumen, lógicamente dedican su tiempo a otros en marcha. Se debe, no obstante, mencionar aquí el apoyo muy especial de C. Aedo y J.J. Aldasoro, en la edición de la subfamilia maloideas, y el de M. Laínz y P. Montserrat, éste concretado en sus correcciones encarnizadas –redaccionales, por de pronto, y de tipo diverso. En lo referente al equipo de conjunto, son reseñables novedades el paso de C. Aedo a Colaborador del CSIC, así como la incorporación esta primavera, como sustituto en las funciones anteriores del precedente y contratado como be- cario del proyecto, del Dr. Llorenç Sáez; y, asimismo, la del Dr. J.J. Aldasoro –que se incorpora por un año, con una licencia para la realización de investiga- ciones en este Centro. Las ilustraciones del volumen son obra de Juan L. Castillo, José M.ª Pizarro y Marta Chirino; más, ocasionalmente, de Pablo Díaz Alonso. Los apéndices bibliográficos no recogen, como en los anteriores, otras referencias que las he- chas en él. XII PREÁMBULO Deploramos la pérdida reciente de nuestro asesor y amigo el Prof. D. Bar- tolomé Casaseca Mena, Catedrático de Botánica de la Facultad de Biología de Salamanca, entusiasta y firme apoyo del proyecto de “Flora iberica” desde sus albores. A buen seguro que vamos a echar en falta los ánimos que siempre nos dio, así como las precisiones que alguna vez nos hizo en punto a terminología descriptiva y vocabulario científico, siempre con el máximo interés por obra que tenía por muy suya. A más de con los Herbarios Básicos (BC, BCF, COI, G, GDA-GDAC, JACA, MA, MAF, MGC, SALA y SEV), en esta ocasión hubo de contarse, al menos alguna vez, con AAU, ABH, AH, ALME, ANG, ARAN, B, BCC, BRESA, BRNM, C, CAS, CAT, COA, E, EMMA, FCO, FI, GH, GZU, HBIL, HGI, JAEN, JE, K, KOR, L, LE, LEB, LISE, LISI, LISU, LISVA, LOU, LY, M, MACB,

  • Evaluation of Genetic Diversity of Morphological Characteristics Genotypes of Rubus Species on the Slopes of the Alborz
    Science Arena Publications Specialty Journal of Agricultural Sciences ISSN: 2412-737X Available online at www.sciarena.com 2019, Vol 5 (1): 17-24 Evaluation of Genetic Diversity of Morphological Characteristics Genotypes of Rubus species on the slopes of the Alborz Mahshid Fakhraee Lahiji1, 2 1 Scientific member, Vegetable Research Center, AREEO, Tehran, Iran. 2 Departments of Seed and Plant Improvement institute, Mohammad Shahr Road, Karaj, Iran. Abstract: Rubus is growing in forests regenerate mainly in a vegetative way; however, detailed studies have shown substantial variability in performance of Rubus individuals. The aim of this study was to evaluate the genetic diversity and genetic grouping of Rubus in Alborz mountains. First year, the regions of Rubus identified, the next year, by referring to pre-determined locations, readings taken. Using the "ward" cluster analysis method based on morphological characteristics were 0.8; genotypes divided in three main groups. The first three components consisted of more than 90% of the total variation. The first component was 0.75, the second component 0.96 and the third component 0.97 variance. The genotype distribution based on factor analysis showed that R.antalicus, R.sanactus in the positive (+1) pc and genetic variants of R.caesius, R.hyrcanus, R.procerus were negative (+2) pc . The R.procerus were negative (-4) for the first factor at the zero- first distance, but in the second factor in the range of +3 to +4 and in the third factor at zero to+1 distance, which indicates that the genotype was weak factor. Based on the results, genotypes of de plot were in a group with more common characteristics, such as R.caesius, R.hyrcanus and R.procerus closed together.

This information represents what was known at the end of the 1994 field season. These maps may not represent the most recent information on distribution and range for these taxa but it does illustrate geographic distribution across the assessment area. For many of these species, this is the first time information has been compiled on this scale. For the continued viability of many of these taxa, it is imperative that we begin to manage for them across their range and across administrative boundaries. Of the 173 taxa analyzed, there are maps for 153 taxa. For those taxa that were not tracked by heritage programs, we were not able to generate range maps.

SPECIES DIVERSITY OF VASCULAR PLANTS OF NANDIAR VALLEY WESTERN HIMALAYA, PAKISTAN FAIZ UL HAQ¹, HABIB AHMAD², MUKHTAR ALAM3, ISHTIAQ AHMAD¹ AND RAHATULLAH2 Department of Botany, Government Degree College Battagram, Pakistan¹ Department of Genetics, Hazara University Mansehra, Pakistan ([email protected])² Directorate Research and Planning, Hazara University Mansehra, Pakistan3 Abstract Species diversity of Nandiar Valley District Battagram, Pakistan was evaluated with special reference to vascular plant diversity of the area. Floristically the area is placed in Western Himalayan Province. It is located on the western edge of Himalayas, dominated by Sino- Japanese elements. Aim of the study was to document the vascular plant resources, conservation issues and usage of the selected plants. An ethno-botanical survey was also carried out for collecting information regarding the various indigenous uses of the vascular plants in different parts of Nandiar Valley. Field observations showed that vegetation of the area was generally threatened due to unwise of local communities. The trend of urbanization, deforestation, over grazing, habitat fragmentation, unscientific extraction of natural vegetation, introduction of the exotic taxa and habitat loss were the visible threats. Sum 402 taxa belongs to 110 families of vascular plants were evaluated. Among the 402 species reported, 237 species were herbs, 71 shrubs, 68 trees, 06 climbing shrubs, 18 climbers and 03 epiphytes. The plants were classified according to local, traditional and economic value. Based on local uses, there were 178 medicinal plants, 21 were poisonous, 258 were fodder species, 122 were fuel wood species, 37 were timber yielding plants, 41 were thatching and sheltering plants, 29 were hedge plants, 71 were wild ornamental, 100 were weeds, 47 species yield edible fruits and seeds, 43 were used as vegetable and pot herb.

A total of 463 plant species belonging to 306 genera and 93 families were recorded. The most dominant families in the study area were Poaceae (54 spp.), Leguminosae (39 spp.), Compositae (33 spp.), Lamiaceae (23 spp.) and Rosaceae (22 spp.), whereas the leading genera were Ficus (8 spp.), Ipomoea, Cyperus, Euphorbia and Solanum (6 spp. each). Use of online taxonomic literature and databases enabled us to document most of the species with their current accepted names, author citations and their placement in the higher taxa. Two different aspects, flowering duration and start of flowering event (or timing) were also recorded. Phenological studies revealed that most of the species found in flowering stage during the August (252 spp.), followed by July (245 spp.), May (239 spp.) and April (237 spp.); while with respect to flowering

  • The Phylogenetic Potential of Orbicules in Angiosperms
    − pISSN 1225-8318 Korean J. Pl. Taxon. 48(1): 9 23 (2018) eISSN 2466-1546 https://doi.org/10.11110/kjpt.2018.48.1.9 Korean Journal of ORIGINAL ARTICLE Plant Taxonomy The phylogenetic potential of orbicules in angiosperms Hye-Kyoung MOON* Department of Biology, Kyung Hee University, Seoul 02447, Korea (Received 21 November 2017; Revised 26 January 2018; Accepted 21 March 2018) ABSTRACT: The distribution of orbicules was investigated for eleven taxa of six genera in Lamiaceae and four taxa of three genera in Verbenaceae using scanning electron microscopy. A literature survey to evaluate the phy- logenetic potential of the orbicules and their possible correlations with tapetum types was also conducted. The orbicules are consistently absent in all investigated taxa of Lamiaceae, while small orbicules of an average size of less than 1 µm are densely distributed in Verbenaceae. In fact, orbicules appear consistently in 123 of 150 angiosperm families when investigated in at least one species. Thus, the distribution patterns of orbicules could be a useful diagnostic character in angiosperms. In addition, orbicules occur in 84% taxa of the secretory tape- tum type, while they are commonly absent in the amoeboid tapetum type (ca. 80%). The presence of orbicules may be correlated with the secretory tapetum type. However, the study of orbicules is restricted in 150 families and the tapetum type within these families can be applied for 92 families out of a total of 416 angiosperm fam- ilies. Thus, further investigation of orbicules is necessary in extended taxa to address the questions pertaining to orbicules. Keywords: orbicules, scanning electron microscopy, tapetum type, angiosperms Pollen morphological traits have been considered as useful shape of orbicules has phylogenetic significance, so orbicules diagnostic characters, since they often provide important clues are drawing keen attention in that they could be the characters to identify plant species and infer their evolutionary history.
