  • The Uthukela District Municipality Biodiversity Sector Plan. Unpublished Report, Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife, Pietermaritzburg
    BIODIVERSITY SECTOR PLAN FOR THE UTHUKELA DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY, KWAZULU-NATAL TECHNICAL REPORT Authors: Afzelia Environmental Consultants cc Wolfgang Kanz John Richardson Editors Tim O’Connor & Associates Tim O’Connor Contributors EnvironDev Gina Thompson Suggested Citation: Kanz W.A., O’Connor T.G., Richardson J., Nel G, Nel, W. The uThukela District Municipality Biodiversity Sector Plan. Unpublished report, Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife, Pietermaritzburg. 0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Biodiversity Act introduced several legislated planning tools to assist with the management and conservation of South Africa’s biological diversity. These include the declaration of “Bioregions” and the publication of “Bioregional Plans”. Bioregional plans are usually an output of a systematic spatial conservation assessment of a region. They identify areas of conservation priority, and constraints and opportunities for implementation of the plan. The precursor to a Bioregional Plan is a Biodiversity Sector Plan (BSP), which is the official reference for biodiversity priorities to be taken into account in land-use planning and decision-making by all sectors within the District Municipality. The consultant team was appointed to fulfil the requirements of a BSP for the uThukela District Municipality, as informed by SANBI, the Bioregional Guidelines (DEAT, 2007), current best practice, and the EKZNW Project Terms of Reference. The final product is a series of maps highlighting those areas that are critically important for biodiversity, with accompanying land-use and management guidelines that serve to guide decision-making and inform multi-sectoral planning. The process involved extensive mapping of vegetation types and species data (where available), ecological processes, transformation and threats, and setting of biodiversity targets.

E-mail: [email protected] * Author for correspondence and reprint requests Z. Naturforsch. 62c, 155Ð163 (2007); received October 26/November 24, 2006 Members of several genera of Asteraceae, belonging to the tribes Mutisieae, Cardueae, Lactuceae (all subfamily Cichorioideae), and of Astereae, Senecioneae, Helenieae and Helian- theae (all subfamily Asteroideae) have been analyzed for chemodiversity of their exudate flavonoid profiles. The majority of structures found were flavones and flavonols, sometimes with 6- and/or 8-substitution, and with a varying degree of oxidation and methylation. Flava- nones were observed in exudates of some genera, and, in some cases, also flavonol- and flavone glycosides were detected. This was mostly the case when exudates were poor both in yield and chemical complexity. Structurally diverse profiles are found particularly within Astereae and Heliantheae. The tribes in the subfamily Cichorioideae exhibited less complex flavonoid profiles. Current results are compared to literature data, and botanical information is included on the studied taxa. Key words: Asteraceae, Exudates, Flavonoids Introduction comparison of accumulation trends in terms of The family of Asteraceae is distributed world- substitution patterns is more indicative for che- wide and comprises 17 tribes, of which Mutisieae, modiversity than single compounds.

Over 200 people attended a meeting planned by a group of eight rock gardening enthusiasts, including Dorothy Hansell, Florens DeBevoise, and Martha Houghton. These three ladies had met several times in 1932 and 1933 to discuss the possibility of starting a rock garden society. The background of rock gardening in the United States and the story of how our society began was thoroughly documented by Frank Cabot in his excellent essay,"As It Was in the Beginning," based on his fine presentation at the 50th Anniversary meeting of ARGS in Asheville, North Carolina in June of 1984.

    ABERCONWY NURSERY PRICE LIST: SPRING 2015 We are pleased to provide you with a copy of our new spring price list. This list cancels all previous lists. We hope that you will find something of interest. We grow alpines & rock garden plants, including some dwarf shrubs, acid loving plants, and ferns as well as various other interesting plants from time to time. We grow only plants that we like and find interesting, and tend not to be constrained by categories! All of our plants are grown on the nursery site, sometimes in small numbers per variety. As a result the stock situation can change suddenly. Some listed items can sell out quickly and unlisted varieties often become available throughout the year. Most of our plants are offered in 6cm to 9cm pots as appropriate for the needs of the plant. All plants are offered ex nursery subject to their remaining available. Prices given in the list refer to the smallest size normally offered. Larger plants may sometimes be available at different prices. We do not supply plants by mail order. However, we will be attending quite a number of Alpine Garden Society, Scottish Rock Garden Club and other shows and can bring plant orders to them (see summary at the end of the plant list). Please place orders a week or two in advance of the show if possible. Please ask if you cannot find what you are looking for. We have extensive growing areas beyond the sales area, and not all of our stock is out on display to customers at any one time.

  • Deer Resistant Plants for the Sierra Foothills
    Deer-Resistant Plants Page 1 Publication DEER-RESISTANT PLANTS FOR THE Number 1 31-113 SIERRA FOOTHILLS (ZONE 7 ) (revised July COMPILED BY UC Cooperative Extension Nevada County Master Gardeners 2003) EDITED BY Cindy Fake, Horticulture and Small Farms Advisor, Placer and Nevada Counties Various factors can make a plant resistant to deer. Many of the most resistant plants are poisonous, some at all times, and others only at certain stages of growth. Palatability of nontoxic plants also varies with plant age or with the seasons. Because of all these considerations, the following list of deer-resistant plans should be considered as a gen- eral guide only; deer will sometimes browse some of the plants listed--as they will sometimes avoid plants not listed. All young plants, shrubs, and trees should be protected from the deer until they get a chance to become somewhat established. Bold face indicates that the plant is particularly resistant. Few, if any, plant species are totally resistant to deer.

Milton A thesis submitted to the University of St Andrews for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Biology University of St Andrews May 2009 ii ABSTRACT Molecular phylogenetic analyses of subtribe Senecioninae, based on combining sequenced ITS and trnL-F fragments from specimens collected in the field with sequences collected from GenBank, suggest the subtribe is monophyletic, as is Senecio s.str. (including Robinsonia), and suggest an expanded monophyletic section Senecio. Many Senecio species should be removed from the genus, as they are only distantly related to it, emphasising the para- or polyphyletic nature of Senecio as it is currently circumscribed. Area optimisation suggests southern Africa as a possible geographical origin for the genus and section. Harvey’s (1865) sectional classification of South African Senecio species (the only attempt to date to impose infrageneric groupings on these taxa), was tested for monophyly which, however, was not seen in the sections tested. A number of southern African species from Harvey’s sections are suggested for inclusion in an expanded section Senecio.
