  • Plants for Pollinators Calendar & Practices to Support Pollinators
    PLANTS FOR POLLINATORS CALENDAR & PRACTICES TO SUPPORT POLLINATORS Jacqueline Cramer, Design Collaborators and Kimberly Leeper, Mariposa Naturescapes GREEN GARDENING WORKSHOP – Oct. 22, 2014 Increase Foraging Habitat – Succession of Flowers through Entire Growing Season – Plant in Clumps/Natural Drifts of Same Species and in Plant Corridors (Hedgerows) Choose nectar and pollen‐rich plants like native wildflowers and old‐fashioned (non‐native) varieties of perennial flowers that are NOT invasive. A corridor of pollinator gardens in neighborhoods, cities, and rural areas around the country could provide enough habitat to restore healthy communities of beneficial insects and pollinators. PLANTS FOR POLLINATORS CALENDAR Be aware that this plant list is a sampling of possible native and non‐native plants available for pollinators. Criteria for selection on this list: well‐behaved; less “messy” than some; easy to find; drought‐tolerant (“right plant, right plant”); multi‐functional (two functions+); and focus on being good for variety of bees. *Bloom times are approximate and will depend upon the weather that season as well as microclimates/site conditions; Observe bloom times of different species you’ve planted and tweak it so you have multiple species blooming over the growing season (Feb. – Oct.). You can find non‐native “versions” of some native plants listed.

Révision systématique, taxinomique et nomenclaturale des Rhopalocera et des Zygaenidae de France métropolitaine. Conséquences sur l’acquisition et la gestion des données d’inventaire. Rapport MMNHN-SPN 2013 - 19, 201 p. Résumé : Les études de phylogénie moléculaire sur les Lépidoptères Rhopalocères et Zygènes sont de plus en plus nombreuses ces dernières années modifiant la systématique et la taxinomie de ces deux groupes. Une mise à jour complète est réalisée dans ce travail. Un cadre décisionnel a été élaboré pour les niveaux spécifiques et infra-spécifique avec une approche intégrative de la taxinomie. Ce cadre intégre notamment un aspect biogéographique en tenant compte des zones-refuges potentielles pour les espèces au cours du dernier maximum glaciaire. Cette démarche permet d’avoir une approche homogène pour le classement des taxa aux niveaux spécifiques et infra-spécifiques. Les conséquences pour l’acquisition des données dans le cadre d’un inventaire national sont développées. Summary : Studies on molecular phylogenies of Butterflies and Burnets have been increasingly frequent in the recent years, changing the systematics and taxonomy of these two groups. A full update has been performed in this work.

The landscape character of the Badger Mountain South community as identified in these standards borrows heavily from the precedent of the original shrub-steppe landscape found here. However that historical character is joined with other opportunities for a more refined and urban landscape pattern that relates to edges of uses and defines spaces into activity areas. This section is divided into the following sub-sections: Guiding Principles, which suggest the overall orientation for all landscape applications; Common Standards, which apply to all Districts; District-specific landscape standards; and finally extensive plant lists of materials suitable in a variety of situations. 1.

  • Efficient Regeneration of Hedychium Coronarium Through Protocorm-Like Bodies

Received: 1 July 2020; Accepted: 22 July 2020; Published: 24 July 2020 Abstract: Hedychium coronarium J. Koenig is a multipurpose plant with significant economic value, but it has been overexploited and listed as a vulnerable, near threatened or endangered species. In vitro culture methods have been used for propagating disease-free propagules for its conservation and production. However, explant contamination has been a bottleneck in in vitro propagation due to the use of rhizomes as the explant source. Plants in the family Zingiberaceae have pseudostems that support inflorescences, while rhizomes are considered true stems. The present study, for the first time, reported that the pseudostem bears nodes and vegetative buds and could actually be true stems. The evaluation of different sources of explants showed that mature node explants derived from the stem were the most suitable ones for in vitro culture because of the lowest contamination and the highest bud break rates. Culture of mature node explants on MS medium supplemented with 13.32, 17.76, and 22.20 µM 6-benzylaminopurine (BA), each in combination with 9.08 µM thidiazurin (TDZ) and 0.05 µM α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) induced the conversion of buds to micro-rhizomes in six weeks.
