  • Carmona Retusa Carmona Boraginaceae
    Carmona retusa Carmona Boraginaceae Forest Starr, Kim Starr, and Lloyd Loope United States Geological Survey--Biological Resources Division Haleakala Field Station, Maui, Hawai'i January, 2003 OVERVIEW Carmona retusa is a popular ornamental plant cultivated in Hawai'i as a hedge or specimen plant. On Maui, C. retusa is observed in residential plantings, mostly in low elevation neighborhoods, such as Kahului, Wailuku, Lahaina, Paia, Haiku, and Kihei. Seedlings and naturalized plants are also commonly observed in landscaping areas and wild semi-wild areas nearby plantings. In one area in Waiehu, C. retusa forms a dense shrubby understory in a kiawe (Prosopis pallida) forest. This plant is fairly widespread on Maui and is probably beyond the eradication stage. Future efforts should be aimed at monitoring, preventing infestations in natural areas, and educating the public about harmful plants that spread beyond the confines of the garden. TAXONOMY Family: Boraginaceae (Heliotrope family) (Lorence et al. 1995, Wagner et al. 1999). Latin name: Carmona retusa (Vahl) Masamune (Lorence et al. 1995, Wagner et al. 1999). Synonyms: C. microphylla (Lam.) Don; Ehretia microphylla Lam.; Ehretia buxifolia Roxb.; Cordia retusa Vahl (Lorence et al. 1995; Bailey and Bailey 1976; GRIN 2001). Common names: Carmona, Philippine tea (Bailey and Bailey 1976), Fukien tea (Caine and Zane 2001). Taxonomic notes: The genus Carmona, also commonly known as Ehretia, is comprised of about 50 species of evergreen or deciduous shrubs and trees of tropical and subtropical regions of both the New and Old World (Bailey and Bailey 1976). Related species in Hawai'i: Neal (1965) lists Ehretia acuminata R.

  • Molecular Evolutionary Analysis of Plastid Genomes in Nonphotosynthetic Angiosperms and Cancer Cell Lines
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School Department or Biology MOLECULAR EVOLUTIONARY ANALYSIS OF PLASTID GENOMES IN NONPHOTOSYNTHETIC ANGIOSPERMS AND CANCER CELL LINES A Dissertation in Biology by Yan Zhang 2012 Yan Zhang Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Dec 2012 The Dissertation of Yan Zhang was reviewed and approved* by the following: Schaeffer, Stephen W. Professor of Biology Chair of Committee Ma, Hong Professor of Biology Altman, Naomi Professor of Statistics dePamphilis, Claude W Professor of Biology Dissertation Adviser Douglas Cavener Professor of Biology Head of Department of Biology *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT This thesis explores the application of evolutionary theory and methods in understanding the plastid genome of nonphotosynthetic parasitic plants and role of mutations in tumor proliferations. We explore plastid genome evolution in parasitic angiosperms lineages that have given up the primary function of plastid genome – photosynthesis. Genome structure, gene contents, and evolutionary dynamics were analyzed and compared in both independent and related parasitic plant lineages. Our studies revealed striking similarities in changes of gene content and evolutionary dynamics with the loss of photosynthetic ability in independent nonphotosynthetic plant lineages. Evolutionary analysis suggests accelerated evolution in the plastid genome of the nonphotosynthetic plants. This thesis also explores the application of phylogenetic and evolutionary analysis in cancer biology. Although cancer has often been likened to Darwinian process, very little application of molecular evolutionary analysis has been seen in cancer biology research. In our study, phylogenetic approaches were used to explore the relationship of several hundred established cancer cell lines based on multiple sequence alignments constructed with variant codons and residues across 494 and 523 genes.

  • Characterisation of a Novel Fruit Type Found in Ehretia (Ehretiaceae, Boraginales)
    BLUMEA 49: 145–153 Published on 3 May 2004 doi: 10.3767/000651904X486250 CHARACTERISATION OF A NOVEL FRUIT TYPE FOUND IN EHRETIA (EHRETIACEAE, BORAGINALES) MARC GOTTSCHLING1, 2 & HARTMUT H. HILGER1 SUMMARY Ehretia (Ehretiaceae, Boraginales) has been divided into two major clades, characterised by fruits with four endocarpids (Ehretia I, including species of Ehretia formerly belonging to Rotula) and by fruits with two endocarpids (Ehretia II, plus E. microphylla (= Carmona retusa) with an undivided endocarp), respectively. Both molecular (ITS1) and morphological data support the recognition of an additional clade, Ehretia III (E. longiflora species group). Its representatives are characterised by four endocarpids (as in Ehretia I), but differ in the presence of distinct lamellae on the abaxial surface of each endocarpid (as in Bourreria, also belonging to Ehretiaceae). However, molecular data suggest a close relationship with Ehretia II. At least three species belong to Ehretia III: Chinese E. longiflora, eastern Indian E. wallichiana, and Indonesian E. javanica. Key words: Ehretia longiflora, anatomy, fruit, ITS1, molecular systematics, phylogeny, phylo- geography. INTRODUCTION Ehretiaceae (Boraginales) are pantropical in distribution (with centres of diversity in Central America, Africa, and East Asia) and comprise about 150 species. The plants are usually subshrubs, shrubs, or trees, and otherwise have the typical asterid characters such as tetracyclic, pentamerous flowers with five antesepalous stamens and bicarpel- late gynoecia. Fruit morphology provides a systematically important set of characters in Ehretiaceae (Pitot, 1939a, b; Miller, 1989; Verdcourt, 1991; Gottschling & Hilger, 2001). Most of the species of Ehretiaceae have drupes (otherwise dry nutlets), with either undivided, two-, or four-parted endocarps. The individual parts of the two- and four-parted endocarps are termed endocarpids and enclose two seeds or one seed each, respectively.

    Flora of China 16: 329–427. 1995. BORAGINACEAE 紫草科 zi cao ke Zhu Ge-ling1; Harald Riedl2, Rudolf Kamelin3 Herbs perennial, biennial, or annual, less often lianas, shrubs, or trees, usually bristly or scabrous-pubescent. Leaves simple, exstipulate, alternate, rarely opposite, entire or serrate at margin. Inflorescences often double scorpioid cymes, rarely solitary; bracts present or absent. Flowers bisexual, actinomorphic, rarely zygomorphic. Calyx usually 5-parted or lobed, mostly persistent. Corolla tubular, campanulate, rotate, funnelform, or salverform; tube appendages 5, rarely more, mostly trapeziform, rarely absent, sometimes a ring of hairs present; limb usually 5-parted; lobes overlapping, rarely twisted in bud. Stamens 5, inserted on corolla tube or rarely at throat, included or rarely exserted; anthers introrse, 2-loculed, usually dorsifixed at base, less often medifixed, dehiscence longitudinal. Nectaries at base of corolla tube or on disc below ovary. Ovary superior, 2-carpellate; locules 2 and each with 2 ovules, or 4 and each with 1 ovule; ovules nearly atropous, semianatropous, or anatropous. Style terminal or gynobasic, branched or not. Gynobase flat, fastigiate, or subulate. Fruit 1–4-seeded drupes or nutlets (mericarps); nutlets mostly dry, often ornamented with wings, prickles and/or glochids (stiff bristles with barbed or anchorlike tips). Seeds vertical or oblique, coat membranous; embryo straight, less often curved; cotyledons flat, fleshy. About 156 genera and 2500 species: temperate and tropical regions, centered in the Mediterranean region; 47 genera and 294 species in China, of which four genera and 156 species are endemic. Anchusa italica Retzius, A. officinalis Linnaeus, and Borago officinalis Linnaeus are cultivated. Borago officinalis is uncommon and not naturalized, and because its seeds contain quality oil, it is probably more commonly grown than previously.

    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Guide to Users Background What is the summary for and where does it come from? This summary has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. It highlights important elements of the biodiversity of the region in two ways: • Listing species which may be significant for management because they are found only in the region, mainly in the region, or they have a conservation status such as endangered or vulnerable. • Comparing the region to other parts of Australia in terms of the composition and distribution of its species, to suggest components of its biodiversity which may be nationally significant. The summary was produced using the Australian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region.
