Department of Planning and Zoning
Department of Planning and Zoning Subject: Howard County Landscape Manual Updates: Recommended Street Tree List (Appendix B) and Recommended Plant List (Appendix C) - Effective July 1, 2010 To: DLD Review Staff Homebuilders Committee From: Kent Sheubrooks, Acting Chief Division of Land Development Date: July 1, 2010 Purpose: The purpose of this policy memorandum is to update the Recommended Plant Lists presently contained in the Landscape Manual. The plant lists were created for the first edition of the Manual in 1993 before information was available about invasive qualities of certain recommended plants contained in those lists (Norway Maple, Bradford Pear, etc.). Additionally, diseases and pests have made some other plants undesirable (Ash, Austrian Pine, etc.). The Howard County General Plan 2000 and subsequent environmental and community planning publications such as the Route 1 and Route 40 Manuals and the Green Neighborhood Design Guidelines have promoted the desirability of using native plants in landscape plantings. Therefore, this policy seeks to update the Recommended Plant Lists by identifying invasive plant species and disease or pest ridden plants for their removal and prohibition from further planting in Howard County and to add other available native plants which have desirable characteristics for street tree or general landscape use for inclusion on the Recommended Plant Lists. Please note that a comprehensive review of the street tree and landscape tree lists were conducted for the purpose of this update, however, only -

Summary TEPPNER H. & STABENTHEINER E. 2010. Pararchidendron pruinosum (Mimosa- ceae-Ingeae): ESEM investigations on anther opening, polyad presentation and stigma. ± Phyton (Horn, Austria) 50 (1): 109±126, with 52 figures. Anthers and anther opening of Pararchidendron pruinosum (BENTH.) NIELSEN var. junghuhnianum (BENTH.) NIELSEN were investigated using environmental scan- ning electron microscopy (ESEM). In general, observations were in good accordance with other Mimosaceae, but in the details of many characteristics there are devia- tions. The thecae sit parallel on a very wide and thick connective. The stomium is distinctly subsided. Opening of the thecae begins in the centre. The margin of the valves tends to be bent inwards and finally overtops the plane of the main part of the valves. As usual in Mimosaceae, the remnants of the parenchymatic transversal sep- tum are distinct on the valves. In the open anther the two longitudinal bulges of the inward folded valves of a theca abut on each other usually. In the completely open anther the position of the 16-grained, relatively thick polyads presented on the flat parts of the valves usually, is often a little distorted. -

Leguminosae are one of the most diverse flowering-plant groups today, but the evolutionary history of the family remains obscure because of the scarce early fossil record, particularly from lowland tropics. Here, we report ~500 compression or impression specimens with distinctive legume features collected from the Cerrejón and Bogotá Formations, Middle to Late Paleocene of Colombia. The specimens were segregated into eight fruit and six leaf 5 morphotypes. Two bipinnate leaf morphotypes are confidently placed in the Caesalpinioideae and are the earliest record of this subfamily. Two of the fruit morphotypes are placed in the Detarioideae and Dialioideae. All other fruit and leaf morphotypes show similarities with more than one subfamily or their affinities remain uncertain. The abundant fossil fruits and leaves described here show that Leguminosae was the most important component of the earliest rainforests in northern South America c. 60–58 million years ago.

Tree and Shrub Tolerance to De-Icing Salt Spray
Michigan State University Extension Home Horticulture - 03900109 01/01/96 TREE AND SHRUB TOLERANCE TO DE-ICING SALT SPRAY Over the past 10 to 15 years, trees and shrubs along major highways in Michigan and other northern states have shown dessication injuries. The damage varies with variety - those plants with sticky, pubescent, or sunken buds appear to be somewhat more tolerant than those plants with smooth, exposed buds. Tolerance to dessication can be attributed to a number of things -- for example, the tolerant evergreens may be protected from injury due to a thick coating of wax on their needles. It is much more difficult to characterize the tolerance nature of deciduous species, as Various deciduous species exhibit a malformation of growth like a witch's broom when injured. The cause of this injury is the salt spray that splashes or drifts onto roadside trees following highway de-icing operations. Damage is most prominent in urban areas and seems to be linked to more frequent salt applications and to traffic density. The symptoms are most pronounced on sensitive plants close to the highway, but have been observed some 250 feet down wind of the traffic. Sensitive plants may exhibit injury to a height of 20 to 25 feet, although lower branches protected by snow may escape injury. Depending upon the snow cover, a zone of injury may extend from three to eight feet above the ground to a height of 20 to 25 feet. Following is a summary of the average salt spray tolerances of various plants bordering selected Michigan highways. -

The monophyly of the order is supported strongly by several studies, although interfamilial relationships are still poorly resolved and vary between studies; a situation common in higher level phylogenetic studies of ancient, rapid radiations. In this study, we carried out simulation analyses with previously published matK and rbcL regions. The results of our simulation analyses have shown that Fabales phylogeny can be solved and the 5,000 bp fast-evolving data type may be sufficient to resolve the Fabales phylogeny question. In our simulation analyses, while support increased as the sequence length did (up until a certain point), resolution showed mixed results. Interestingly, the accuracy of the phylogenetic trees did not improve with the increase in sequence length. Therefore, this study sounds a note of caution, with respect to interpreting the results of the “more data” approach, because the results have shown that large datasets can easily support an arbitrary root of Fabales. Keywords: Data type, Fabales, phylogeny, sequence length, simulation. 1.

Germination and salinity tolerance of seeds of sixteen Fabaceae species in Thailand for reclamation of salt-affected lands. Biodiversitas 21: 2188-2200. Over the years, areas affected by salinity have increased dramatically in Thailand, resulting in an urgent need for reclamation of salt-affected areas using salinity tolerant plant species. In this context, seed germination is an important process in plant reproduction and dispersion. This research aimed to study the ability of 16 fabaceous species to germinate and tolerate salt concentrations of at 6 different levels (concentration of sodium chloride solution, i.e., 0, 8, 16, 24, 32, and 40 dS m-1). The germination test was conducted daily for 30 days, and parameters such as germination percentage, germination speed, and germination synchrony were calculated. The electrical conductivity (EC50) was used to compare the salt-tolerant ability among the 16 species. -

For much of the last thirty years, the caesalpinioid genus Bauhinia has been recognised by numerous authors as a broadly circumscribed, ecologically, morphologically and palynologically diverse pantropical taxon, comprising several subgenera. One of these, Bauhinia subg. Phanera has recently been reinstated at generic rank based on a synthesis of morphological and molecular data. Nevertheless, there remains considerable diversity within Phanera. Following a review of palynological and molecular studies of Phanera in conjunction with a careful re-examination of the morphological heterogeneity within the genus, we have found strong evidence that the species of Phanera subsect. Corymbosae are a natural group that warrant generic status. We describe here the genus Cheniella R.Clark & Mackinder gen. nov. to accommodate them. It comprises 10 species and 3 subspecies, one newly described here. Generic characters include leaves that are simple and emarginate or bilobed; fl owers with elongate hypanthia which are as long as or much longer than the sepals; pods that are glabrous, compressed, oblong, indehiscent or tardily dehiscent; and with numerous seeds, the seeds bearing an unusually long funicle extending most of the way around their circumference. -

Its propagation is mainly by seeds, but basic subsidies regarding the requirements for optimal germination conditions are still lacking. Aiming to contribute to the expansion of its cultivation, rational use and conservation, the objective of this study was to investigate the morphology and anatomy of fruits and seeds, as well as the responses to factors as thermal regimes and substrates in seed germination. The 1000-seed weight and seeds per fruit were determined. To characterize the seed tissues, histochemical test with Sudan III and Lugol was used. The temperatures analyzed in the germination test were 15-25 °C; 25 °C; 20-30 °C and 30 °C.
