In a survey, more than 240 plant species have been Received in revised form 19 May 2009 screened for the presence of rosmarinic and chlorogenic acids. Several rosmarinic acid-containing species Available online 25 June 2009 have been detected. The rosmarinic acid accumulation in species of the Marantaceae has not been known before. Rosmarinic acid is found in hornworts, in the fern family Blechnaceae and in species of several Keywords: orders of mono- and dicotyledonous angiosperms. The biosyntheses of caffeoylshikimate, chlorogenic Rosmarinic acid acid and rosmarinic acid use 4-coumaroyl-CoA from the general phenylpropanoid pathway as hydroxy- Caffeoylshikimic acid cinnamoyl donor. The hydroxycinnamoyl acceptor substrate comes from the shikimate pathway: shiki- Chlorogenic acid Phenylpropanoid metabolism mic acid, quinic acid and hydroxyphenyllactic acid derived from L-tyrosine. Similar steps are involved Acyltransferase in the biosyntheses of rosmarinic, chlorogenic and caffeoylshikimic acids: the transfer of the 4-coumaroyl CYP98A moiety to an acceptor molecule by a hydroxycinnamoyltransferase from the BAHD acyltransferase family and the meta-hydroxylation of the 4-coumaroyl moiety in the ester by a cytochrome P450 monooxygen- ase from the CYP98A family. The hydroxycinnamoyltransferases as well as the meta-hydroxylases show high sequence similarities and thus seem to be closely related. The hydroxycinnamoyltransferase and CYP98A14 from Coleus blumei (Lamiaceae) are nevertheless specific for substrates involved in RA biosyn- thesis showing an evolutionary diversification in phenolic ester metabolism. Our current view is that only a few enzymes had to be ‘‘invented” for rosmarinic acid biosynthesis probably on the basis of genes needed for the formation of chlorogenic and caffeoylshikimic acid while further biosynthetic steps might have been recruited from phenylpropanoid metabolism, tocopherol/plastoquinone biosynthesis and photorespiration.

    S. M. El Naggar & N. Sawady Pollen Morphology of Malvaceae and its taxonomic significance in Yemen Abstract El Naggar, S. M. & Sawady N.: Pollen Morphology of Malvaceae and its taxonomic signifi- cance in Yemen. — Fl. Medit. 18: 431-439. 2008. — ISSN 1120-4052. The pollen morphology of 20 species of Malvaceae growing in Yemen was investigated by light (LM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The studied taxa belong to 9 genera and three different tribes. These taxa are: Abelmoschus esculentus, Hibiscus trionum, H. micranthus, H. deflersii, H. palmatus, H. vitifolius, H. rosa-sinensis, H. ovalifolius, Gossypium hirsutum, Thespesia populnea (L.) Solander ex Correa and Senra incana (Cav.) DC. (Hibiscieae); Malva parviflora and Alcea rosea (Malveae); Abutilon fruticosum, A. figarianum, A. bidentatum, A. pannosum, Sida acuta, S. alba and S. ovata (Abutileae). Pollen shape, size, aperture, exine structure and sculpturing as well as the spine characters proved that they are of high taxonom- ic value. Pollen characters with some other morphological characters are discussed in the light of the recent classification of the family in Yemen. Key words: Malvaceae, Morphology, Yemen. Introduction Malvaceae Juss. (s. str.) is a large family of herbs, shrubs and trees; comprising about 110 genera and 2000 species. It is a globally distributed family with primary concentrations of genera in the tropical and subtropical regions (Hutchinson 1967; Fryxell 1975, 1988 & 1998; Heywood 1993; La Duke & Doeby 1995; Mabberley 1997). Due to the high economic value of many taxa of Malvaceae (Gossypium, Hibiscus, Abelmoschus and Malva), several studies of different perspective have been carried out, such as those are: Edlin (1935), Bates and Blanchard (1970), Krebs (1994a, 1994b), Ray (1995 & 1998), Hosni and Araffa (1999), El Naggar (1996, 2001 & 2004), Pefell & al.

  • Las Especies Del Género Alyogyne Alef. (Malvaceae, Malvoideae) Cultivadas En España
    Las especies del género Alyogyne Alef. (Malvaceae, Malvoideae) cultivadas en España © 2008-2019 José Manuel Sánchez de Lorenzo-Cáceres www.arbolesornamentales.es El género Alyogyne Alef. comprende arbustos perennes, con indumento denso o de pelos esparcidos, con las hojas alternas, pecioladas, enteras, palmatilobadas o muy divididas, con estípulas diminutas y caedizas. Las flores son solitarias, axilares, sobre pedicelos largos y articulados. El epicáliz posee 4-10(-12) segmentos unidos en la base; el cáliz consta de 5 sépalos, más largos que el epicáliz, y la corola es más o menos acampanada, regular, formada por 5 pétalos obovados de color blan- co, rosa, lila o púrpura, adnatos a la base de la columna estaminal, cubiertos de pelos estrellados externamente. El androceo posee numerosos estambres (50-100) dispuestos en verticilos, con los filamentos unidos formando una columna que rodea al estilo, y las anteras uniloculares, dehiscentes por suturas longitudinales. El gineceo posee un ovario súpero, con 3-5 lóculos, cada uno de los cuales encierra 3-10 rudimentos seminales. Los estilos están unidos casi hasta el ápice, dividiéndose finalmente en 5 estigmas. El fruto es una cápsula dehis- cente por 3-5 valvas, conteniendo numerosas semillas (3-50) de pequeño tamaño, reniformes o globosas, glabras o pelosas. El nombre procede del griego alytos = unido y gyne = mujer, en alu- sión a los estilos unidos. Según Lewton (1915), el nombre debería ser Allogyne, del griego állos = otro, diferente y gyne = mujer, hembra, en alusión a la diferencia con Hibiscus en cuanto a los estilos. Realmente esta es la gran diferencia con el género Hibiscus, donde los estilos se separan por debajo de los estigmas, mientras que en Alyogyne están unidos justo hasta llegar a los estig- mas, momento en que se dividen.

  • Hollyhock Rust Caroline Jackson and Josephine Mgbechi-Ezeri
    Sample of the week: Hollyhock rust Caroline Jackson and Josephine Mgbechi-Ezeri Have strange orange and brown bumps plagued your flower beds this year? The prolonged cool temperatures and heavy precipitation this spring have allowed fungal pathogens to flourish. Here is one heavy infestation of Hollyhock rust, a disease that is caused by the fungal pathogen Puccinia malvacearum. Common hosts include Alcea rosea, (hollyhock), Abutilon spp. (flowering maple), Malvaceae spp. (rose mallow), Figure 1. Yellow spots on upper leaf surface Photo Credit: and common weed mallow. It is Caroline Jackson, University of Missouri Plant Diagnostic Clinic one of the most common diseases of hollyhock. Symptoms of the disease include the yellow to red spots on upper leaf surface, and brown pustules that appear blister-like occur on lower leaf surface and stem. Leaves that are heavily infected often wilt, turn brown and die. This disease is the most common of hollyhock and can spread rapidly from leaf to leaf. The fungus overwinters in the infected plant materials, and in the spring produce spores that are dispersed by wind to initiate infection on new plants. Figure 2.

  • Circumscription and Phylogeny of Apiaceae Subfamily Saniculoideae Based on Chloroplast DNA Sequences
    ARTICLE IN PRESS Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution xxx (2007) xxx–xxx www.elsevier.com/locate/ympev Circumscription and phylogeny of Apiaceae subfamily Saniculoideae based on chloroplast DNA sequences Carolina I. Calviño a,b,¤, Stephen R. Downie a a Department of Plant Biology, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, IL 61801-3707, USA b Instituto de Botánica Darwinion, Buenos Aires, Argentina Received 14 July 2006; revised 3 January 2007; accepted 4 January 2007 Abstract An estimate of phylogenetic relationships within Apiaceae subfamily Saniculoideae was inferred using data from the chloroplast DNA trnQ-trnK 5Ј-exon region to clarify the circumscription of the subfamily and to assess the monophyly of its constituent genera. Ninety- one accessions representing 14 genera and 82 species of Apiaceae were examined, including the genera Steganotaenia, Polemanniopsis, and Lichtensteinia which have been traditionally treated in subfamily Apioideae but determined in recent studies to be more closely related to or included within subfamily Saniculoideae. The trnQ-trnK 5Ј-exon region includes two intergenic spacers heretofore underutilized in molecular systematic studies and the rps16 intron. Analyses of these loci permitted an assessment of the relative utility of these noncoding regions (including the use of indel characters) for phylogenetic study at diVerent hierarchical levels. The use of indels in phylogenetic anal- yses of both combined and partitioned data sets improves resolution of relationships, increases bootstrap support values, and decreases levels of overall homoplasy. Intergeneric relationships derived from maximum parsimony, Bayesian, and maximum likelihood analyses, as well as from maximum parsimony analysis of indel data alone, are fully resolved and consistent with one another and generally very well supported.
