The 1978 Act of the International Convention for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants is applicable, according to its Article 4(1), to all botanical genera and species. Its Article 4(2) provides that “the member States of the Union undertake to adopt all measures necessary for the progressive application of the provisions of this Convention to the largest possible number of botanical genera and species.” The 1991 Act of the Convention provides in its Article 3 that “each Contracting Party which is bound by the Act of 1961/1972 or the Act of 1978 shall apply the provisions of this Convention, (i) at the date on which it becomes bound by this Convention, to all plant genera and species to which it applies, on the said date, the provisions of the Act of 1961/1972 or the Act of 1978 and, (ii) at the latest by the expiration of a period of five years after the said date, to all plant genera and species,” and that “each Contracting Party which is not bound by the Act of 1961/1972 or the Act of 1978 shall apply the provisions of this Convention, (i) at the date on which it becomes bound by this Convention, to at least 15 plant genera or species and, (ii) at the latest by the expiration of a period of 10 years from the said date, to all plant genera and species.” 1 2. This document surveys the measures for the protection of the various taxa F F that have been instituted by the members of the Union. It also contains additional information which may be useful in the context of this document. 3. This document contains: - the main table; - notes classified by members of the Union. 4. The main table presents the list of taxa protected by those members of the Union which do not protect all plant genera and species (total: 13 members of the Union). 5. The main table does not contain the following members of the Union, which protect the whole or essentially the whole plant kingdom: African Intellectual Property Organization (OAPI), Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belarus, Belgium, Bolivia (Plurinational State of), Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Estonia, European Union, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Kenya, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Mexico, Montenegro, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Norway, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Poland, Portugal, Republic of Korea, Republic of Moldova, Romania, Russian Federation, Serbia, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Tunisia, Ukraine, United Kingdom, United Republic of Tanzania, United States of America and Uruguay (total: 61 members of the Union). Details on the situation in those authorities are given in the notes classified by members of the Union. 6. The taxa are listed in the alphabetical order of their respective UPOV Code. 7. The drawing up of the synoptical list of taxa has led to some departures from the relevant laws and regulations, in particular because nomenclatures used are not uniform. It is recommended to consult these laws and regulations when precise information is needed. 8. The notes classified by members of the Union follow the alphabetical order of the ISO codes applicable to countries and organizations (see the list on page 4). The following will be found therein, wherever it has appeared necessary: (a) general notes relating in particular to the way in which the list of protected taxa has been established; (b) special notes relating to a specific taxon. 9. New developments reflected in this document include: - Extension of protection to additional plant genera and species: Brazil, China, Morocco, South Africa and Turkey. 1 The expression “protected taxon” and the similar expressions mean that titles of protection may be issued for varieties of the taxon concerned. C/50/6 Corr. page 3 SYMBOLS USED IN THE MAIN TABLE X Protected taxon + Protected taxon as a result of the protection of a taxon of a higher rank to which it belongs (for example in the case of a species: the genus or family to which it belongs is protected).

Dies vor allem auch deshalb, da nach Bereitstellung eines städtischen Grundstückes auf dem Gelände des Gartenamtes, sowohl der Bayerische Landesverband für Gartenbau und Landespflege, als auch der Stadtkreisverband für Gartenbau und Landespflege Ingolstadt, mit seinen 11 Obst- und Gartenbauvereinen (ca. 3.000 eingetragene Mitglieder und ca. 5.000 Familienangehörige), bereit war, die Materialkosten zu tragen. Damit steht nicht nur den Vereinsmitgliedern der Obst- und Gartenbauvereine, der Siedlervereinigung, den Kleingärtnern, der Landwirtschaft, u.a. ein obstbaulicher Fachgarten zur Information zur Verfügung, sondern er dient allen Gartenfreunden der Bevölkerung als Beispiel für die Anzucht unterschiedlicher Kulturformen von Obstgehölzen, alter und neuer Sorten, die für den privaten Garten geeignet sind. Deshalb ist die Eröffnung des Ingolstädter Obstlehrgartens ein gartenbauliches Ereignis, ganz im Sinne jahrzehntelanger gartenkultureller Tradition Ingolstadts. Der bereitwilligen Unter- stützung des Projektes durch die Stadt Ingolstadt gilt mein persönlicher Dank.

The usefulness of random amplified microsatellite polymorphism markers to study the genetic diversity and relationships among cultivars belonging to Prunus salicina and P. domestica and their wild relatives (P. insititia and P. spinosa) was investigated. A total of 226 of 234 bands were polymorphic (96.58%). The 226 random amplified microsatellite polymorphism markers were screened using 15 random amplified polymorphic DNA and inter-simple sequence repeat primers combinations for 54 Tunisian plum accessions. The percentage of polymorphic bands (96.58%), the resolving power of primers values (135.70), and the polymorphic information content demonstrated the efficiency of the primers used in this study. The genetic distances between accessions ranged from 0.18 to 0.79 with a mean of 0.24, suggesting a high level of genetic diversity at the intra- and interspecific levels.

  • Phylogenetic Placement of the Enigmatic Orchid Genera Thaia and Tangtsinia: Evidence from Molecular and Morphological Characters

China 3 Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Menglun Township, Mengla County, Yunnan province 666303, P.R. China Author for correspondence: Xiao-Hua Jin, [email protected] Abstract The phylogenetic position of two enigmatic Asian orchid genera, Thaia and Tangtsinia, were inferred from molecular data and morphological evidence. An analysis of combined plastid data (rbcL + matK + psaB) using Bayesian and parsimony methods revealed that Thaia is a sister group to the higher epidendroids, and tribe Neottieae is polyphyletic unless Thaia is removed. Morphological evidence, such as plicate leaves and corms, the structure of the gynostemium and the micromorphol- ogy of pollinia, also indicates that Thaia should be excluded from Neottieae. Thaieae, a new tribe, is therefore tentatively established. Using Bayesian and parsimony methods, analyses of combined plastid and nuclear datasets (rbcL, matK, psaB, trnL-F, ITS, Xdh) confirmed that the monotypic genus Tangtsinia was nested within and is synonymous with the genus Cepha- lanthera, in which an apical stigma has evolved independently at least twice.

  • Separating Fact from Fiction in the Aiolian Migration
    hesperia yy (2008) SEPARATING FACT Pages399-430 FROM FICTION IN THE AIOLIAN MIGRATION ABSTRACT Iron Age settlementsin the northeastAegean are usuallyattributed to Aioliancolonists who journeyed across the Aegean from mainland Greece. This articlereviews the literary accounts of the migration and presentsthe relevantarchaeological evidence, with a focuson newmaterial from Troy. No onearea played a dominantrole in colonizing Aiolis, nor is sucha widespread colonizationsupported by the archaeologicalrecord. But the aggressive promotionof migrationaccounts after the PersianWars provedmutually beneficialto bothsides of theAegean and justified the composition of the Delian League. Scholarlyassessments of habitation in thenortheast Aegean during the EarlyIron Age are remarkably consistent: most settlements are attributed toAiolian colonists who had journeyed across the Aegean from Thessaly, Boiotia,Akhaia, or a combinationof all three.1There is no uniformityin theancient sources that deal with the migration, although Orestes and his descendantsare named as theleaders in mostaccounts, and are credited withfounding colonies over a broadgeographic area, including Lesbos, Tenedos,the western and southerncoasts of theTroad, and theregion betweenthe bays of Adramyttion and Smyrna(Fig. 1).
