"National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment. -

CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE United States National Herbarium Volume XII, Part 3 TXE&3 OF AMERICAN GRASSES . / A STUDY OF THE AMERICAN SPECIES OF GRASSES DESCRIBED BY LINNAEUS, GRONOVIUS, SLOANE, SWARTZ, AND MICHAUX By A. S. HITCHCOCK z rit erV ^-C?^ 1 " WASHINGTON GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE 1908 BULLETIN OF THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM Issued June 18, 1908 ii PREFACE The accompanying paper, by Prof. A. S. Hitchcock, Systematic Agrostologist of the United States Department of Agriculture, u entitled Types of American grasses: a study of the American species of grasses described by Linnaeus, Gronovius, Sloane, Swartz, and Michaux," is an important contribution to our knowledge of American grasses. It is regarded as of fundamental importance in the critical sys- tematic investigation of any group of plants that the identity of the species described by earlier authors be determined with certainty. Often this identification can be made only by examining the type specimen, the original description being inconclusive. Under the American code of botanical nomenclature, which has been followed by the author of this paper, "the nomenclatorial t}rpe of a species or subspecies is the specimen to which the describer originally applied the name in publication." The procedure indicated by the American code, namely, to appeal to the type specimen when the original description is insufficient to identify the species, has been much misunderstood by European botanists. It has been taken to mean, in the case of the Linnsean herbarium, for example, that a specimen in that herbarium bearing the same name as a species described by Linnaeus in his Species Plantarum must be taken as the type of that species regardless of all other considerations. -

Paspalum is a rather large genus “numbering nearly 400” species (Chase, 1929). Sour paspalum (Paspalum conjugatum) stands by itself in this genus as suggested by Chase (1929) who created for it, alone, the Section Conjugata (Fig. 1). Its most unusual character is the vigorously stoloniferous habit allowing, at times, for a rapidly formed perennial ground cover. Sour paspalum has been assumed to be native where it occurs in the Americas, from Florida to Texas and southward to Peru, Bolivia, and northern Argentina, from sea level to 4,000 ft elevation. The grass was first described from a specimen collected in Surinam (Dutch Guiana). Sour paspalum has been assumed, however, to be intro- duced wherever it occurs in the Old World tropics (Fig. 2) and Pacific Islands. The early trade routes were between Australia, Singapore, and Africa. Probably both carpetgrass (Axonopus compressus) and sour paspalum, being of similar distribution and ecology, were spread at the same time to the same places. -

Impacts of Alien Land Arthropods and Mollusks on Native Plants and Animals in Hawaii
7. IMPACTS OF ALIEN LAND ARTHROPODS AND MOLLUSKS ON NATIVE PLANTS AND ANIMALS IN HAWAIfI Francis G. Howarth ABSTRACT Over 2,000 alien arthropod species and about 30 alien non-marine mollusks are established in the wild in Hawai'i, While the data are too meager to assess fully the impacts of any of these organisms on the na- tive biota, the documentation suggests several areas of critical concern. Alien species feed directly on na- tive plants or their products, thus competing with na- tive herbivores and affecting host plants. Alien pred- ators and parasites critically reduce the populations of many native species and seriously deplete the food resources of native predators. Some immigrant species spread diseases that infect elements of the native bio- ta. Others are toxic to native predators. There is also competition for other resources, such as nesting and resting sites. Even apparently innocuous intro- duced species may provide food for alien predators, thus keeping predator populations high with an atten- dant greater impact on native prey. Control measures targeted at alien pests may be hazardous to natives. Mitigative measures must be based on sound research and firmer understanding of the complex interactions and dynamics of functioning ecosystems. Strict quarantine procedures are cost effective in preventing or delaying the establishment of potential pests. Strict control or fumigation is needed for nonessential importations (such as cow chips, Christmas trees, and flowers in bulk). Improved review of introductions for biological control is required in order to prevent repeating past mistakes. Biocontrol introductions must be used only for bona fide pests and used in native ecosystems only in special circumstances. -
Peanut Stunt Virus Infecting Perennial Peanuts in Florida and Georgia1 Carlye Baker2, Ann Blount3, and Ken Quesenberry4
Plant Pathology Circular No. 395 Fla. Dept. of Agric. & Consumer Serv. ____________________________________________________________________________________July/August 1999 Division of Plant Industry Peanut Stunt Virus Infecting Perennial Peanuts in Florida and Georgia1 Carlye Baker2, Ann Blount3, and Ken Quesenberry4 INTRODUCTION: Peanut stunt virus (PSV) has been reported to cause disease in a number of economically important plants worldwide. In the southeastern United States, PSV is widespread in forage legumes and is considered a major constraint to productivity and stand longevity (McLaughlin et al. 1992). It is one of the principal viruses associated with clover decline in the southeast (McLaughlin and Boykin 1988). In 2002, this virus (Fig. 1) was reported in the forage legume rhizoma or perennial peanut, Arachis glabrata Benth. (Blount et al. 2002). Perennial peanut was brought into Florida from Bra- zil in 1936. In general, the perennial peanut is well adapted to the light sandy soils of the southern Gulf Coast region of the U.S. It is drought-tolerant, grows well on low-fertility soils and is relatively free from disease or insect pest problems. The rela- tively impressive forage yields of some accessions makes the perennial peanut a promising warm-sea- son perennial forage legume for the southern Gulf Coast. Due to its high-quality forage, locally grown perennial peanut hay increasingly competes for the million plus dollar hay market currently satisfied by imported alfalfa (Medicago sativa L). There are ap- proximately 25,000 acres of perennial peanut in Ala- bama, Georgia and Florida combined. About 1000 acres are planted as living mulch in citrus groves. Fig. 1.

K* 1, J. Rathinamala 1 and S. Jayashree 2 1Department of Microbiology, Nehru Arts and Science College, Coimbatore, 2Department of Biotechnology, Nehru Arts and Science College, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India. Received: 05 March 2014 ; Revised: 25 April 2014 ; Accepted: 03 May 2014 Abstract: Use of chemical fungicide to control plant diseases causes several adverse effects such as, development of resistance in the pathogen, residual toxicity, pollution to the environment etc. So an alternative way to overcome the usage of dreadful chemicals is very important. The use of plant extracts as biofungicide is one of the popular and effective method. Araucaria columnaris is a commonly seen ornamental plant known as Christmas tree. It’s a South African species, under the family Araucariaceae. Hence, in the present study, the plant resin extract was tested in-vitro against major plant pathogensby preliminary bioassay. It was found that up to 95% reduction of mycelium growth was observed against major phytopathogens such as Fusarium oxysporyum , Rhizoctonia sp, Cylindrocladium sp, Alternaria sp, and Colletrotricum sp., causing tomato wilt, damping off, foliage blight, and leaf blight diseases in economically important plants. Up to our knowledge it is the first report showing the antifungal activity of Araucaria columnaris resin as antifungal agent. -
