Wien, 2012 Studienkennzahl lt. Studienblatt: A 996 Studienrichtung lt. Studienblatt: Pharmazie Betreuer: Univ. Prof. Mag. Dr. Gerhard Buchbauer Danksagung Vor allem lieben herzlichen Dank an meinen gütigen, optimistischen, nicht-aus-der-Ruhe-zu-bringenden Betreuer Herrn Univ. Prof. Mag. Dr. Gerhard Buchbauer ohne dessen freundlichen, fundierten Hinweisen und Ratschlägen diese Arbeit wohl niemals in der vorliegenden Form zustande gekommen wäre. Nochmals Danke, Danke, Danke. Weiteres danke ich meinen Eltern, die sich alles vom Munde abgespart haben, um mir dieses Studium der Pharmazie erst zu ermöglichen, und deren unerschütterlicher Glaube an die Fähigkeiten ihrer Tochter, mich auch dann weitermachen ließ, wenn ich mal alles hinschmeissen wollte. Auch meiner Schwester Ira gebührt Dank, auch sie war mir immer eine Stütze und Hilfe, und immer war sie da, für einen guten Rat und ein offenes Ohr. Dank auch an meinen Sohn Igor, der mit viel Verständnis akzeptierte, dass in dieser Zeit meine Prioritäten an meiner Diplomarbeit waren, und mein Zeitbudget auch für ihn eingeschränkt war. Schliesslich last, but not least - Dank auch an meinen Mann Joseph, der mich auch dann ertragen hat, wenn ich eigentlich unerträglich war. 2 Abstract This review presents a general analysis of the scienthr information about nitrogen containing volatile organic compounds (N-VOC’s) in plants. -
Agenda 2017.Indb
Las Mujeres en la CienciA AGE 20 NDA 17 Presentación n el México de hoy podemos afirmar que los espacios es- tán abiertos para las mexicanas. Su participación en to- Edos los ámbitos y profesiones, actividades económicas, políticas y sociales, así como en la educación, la ciencia y la cultura es cada vez mayor. No obstante, se pueden identificar brechas históricas, es decir, aún las mujeres de las ciencias no logran tener una participación más allá del 25%; si bien son numerosas y de gran talento las que incursionan en la investigación científica, en especial en me- dicina y astronomía, la diferenciación con los hombres abarca todos los ámbitos de la vida. Con la publicación de esta agenda —por cuarto año consecuti- vo—, en el INMUJERES nos hemos propuesto construir un espa- cio de conocimiento y divulgación de quiénes somos las mexi- canas, cómo hemos contribuido al desarrollo, la cultura y a la vida política y social en México. En esta ocasión hemos querido develar a las mujeres de la cien- cia y la tecnología; todas ellas generadoras de conocimiento científico y divulgadoras del mismo; con aportaciones importan- tes en un ámbito que desde lejos, parece estar sólo en manos de los hombres. Las científicas mexicanas han contribuido a las ciencias médi- cas, a la botánica, la biología y el medio ambiente; igualmen- te, documentamos las aportaciones a la nanotecnología, a los estudios del mar y del petróleo, así como a la astronomía, las matemáticas y la física. Algunas pioneras en su disciplina. En el INMUJERES estamos convencidas que fomentar, desa- rrollar y fortalecer la participación de las mujeres en la in- vestigación científica y tecnológica, es una prioridad para el desarrollo sustentable del país. -

Bravo ex Sánchez- Mejorada, 1973) has always been a difficult plant for which to find a taxonomical position. It is included in the tribe Pachycereeae Buxbaum, sub-tribe Pachycere- inae Buxbaum. However, its morphology and life cycle are distinct from those of all the other taxa included. Furthermore, it has a character which is unique in the whole Cactaceae family, that is, it bears an inflores- cence with genetically determinate growth, a decidu- ous one, which for this exclusive character deserves a specific term, that I define as “Tiponche” (pron. teep- ònche), from the vernacular name by which the species is known in its distribution area. The present paper describes for the first time the deciduous character of the inflorescence, and how this adaptation influences the dynamics of the life cycle of B. militaris. Furthermore, its functional significance is investigated, and related to a probable, sophisticated mutual symbiosis between the plant and a lepidopter- an of the Pyraloidea, of a yet undetermined species. This study is the result of bibliographic research and of observations carried out both in the wild, dur- ing a survey in March 1994 in a locality within the dis- tribution area of B. militaris, and with the dissection of authorized 1) samples collected on the same occasion. NOTES ON THE STUDIES CARRIED OUT ON BACKEBERGIA MILITARIS The species was discovered some 150 years ago, but the encounters between B. -

Nat. Croat. Vol. 27, No. 2, 407- 420*, 2018, Zagreb. In this paper, the plant lists of glasshouse succulents grown in the Botanical Garden from 1895 to 2017 are studied. Synonymy, nomenclature and origin of plant material were sorted. The lists of species grown in the last 122 years are constructed in such a way as to show that throughout that period at least 1423 taxa of succulent plants from 254 genera and 17 families inhabited the Garden’s cold glass- house collection.

Developmental Reaction Norms for Water Stressed Seedlings of Succulent Cacti
Developmental Reaction Norms for Water Stressed Seedlings of Succulent Cacti Ulises Rosas1*, Royce W. Zhou1, Guillermo Castillo2, Margarita Collazo-Ortega3 1 Center for Genomics and Systems Biology, New York University, New York City, New York, United States of America, 2 Instituto de Ecologı´a, Universidad Nacional Auto´noma de Me´xico, Me´xico Distrito Federal, Mexico, 3 Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Nacional Auto´noma de Me´xico, Me´xico Distrito Federal, Mexico Abstract Succulent cacti are remarkable plants with capabilities to withstand long periods of drought. However, their adult success is contingent on the early seedling stages, when plants are highly susceptible to the environment. To better understand their early coping strategies in a challenging environment, two developmental aspects (anatomy and morphology) in Polaskia chichipe and Echinocactus platyacanthus were studied in the context of developmental reaction norms under drought conditions. The morphology was evaluated using landmark based morphometrics and Principal Component Analysis, which gave three main trends of the variation in each species. The anatomy was quantified as number and area of xylem vessels. The quantitative relationship between morphology and anatomy in early stages of development, as a response to drought was revealed in these two species. Qualitatively, collapsible cells and collapsible parenchyma tissue were observed in seedlings of both species, more often in those subjected to water stress. These tissues were located inside the epidermis, resembling a web of collapsible-cell groups surrounding turgid cells, vascular bundles, and spanned across the pith. Occasionally the groups formed a continuum stretching from the epidermis towards the vasculature. Integrating the morphology and the anatomy in a developmental context as a response to environmental conditions provides a better understanding of the organism’s dynamics, adaptation, and plasticity. -
Cactus Gems from the High Andes
A Horticulture Information article from the Wisconsin Master Gardener website, posted 3 April 2009 Cactus Gems from the High Andes Cacti tend to delight people because of their weird shapes, unusual spine patterns, and colorful fl owers. But for those of us who live in cold climates, our options for growing them are limited: relatively few survive outdoors during our winters; most of us don’t have greenhouses that provide the intense light that many cacti require; and many cacti are just too big to live in windowsills. But there are sev- eral groups of cacti that remain small and live in habitats where they are adapted to lighting conditions that are less intense than those found in the Tucson desert. One such group consists of the rebutias, charming little plants that produce bunches of bright fl owers in spring. These cactus gems are at home in the high Andes of Bo- livia and Argentina. They are small plants, ideally suited for small spaces. Many have interesting spines and once a year they produce a profusion of fl owers that come in a Rebutia cacti produce bright fl owers in spring. rainbow of colors; several have bicolor fl owers. Rebutia is Rebutia fi ebrigii near Pucara, Bolivia (2850m = 9350ft). Photos by Graham Charles, Stamford, England. the only common name for these plants and derives from the scientifi c genus name Rebutia, named after a French grape grower and cactus nurseryman (quite a combination!). Rebutias are small plants, the individual stems are some variation of the ball shape, from slightly fl at- tened to slightly elongated.
