  • Staff Assessment Report APP203667: an Application to Import
    EPA advice for APP203667 Staff Assessment Report APP203667: An application to import and release the moth plant beetle (Freudeita confer cupripennis) as a biological control agent for the weed moth plant (Araujia hortorum). Purpose An application to import and release the moth plant beetle, Freudeita cf. cupripennis, as a biological control agent for the weed moth plant, Araujia hortorum Application number APP203667 Application type Notified, Full Release Applicant Waikato Regional Council Date formally received 17 January 2019 1 EPA advice for APP203667 Executive Summary and Recommendation In January 2019, Waikato Regional Council submitted an application to the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) seeking pre-approval to release the moth plant beetle, Freudeita cf. cupripennis, as a biological control agent (BCA) for the weed moth plant, Araujia hortorum. The application was publicly notified. The EPA received 53 submissions, 23 submissions supported the application, four submissions neither supported nor opposed and 26 submissions opposed the application. The EPA assessed the risks, costs and benefits of the release of F. cf. cupripennis in the context of the environment, market economy, people and communities, public health and on the relationship of Māori and their culture and traditions with their ancestral lands, water, sites, wāhi tapu, valued flora and fauna, and other taonga. The EPA assessed that there are no direct or tangible risks to public health from the release of the moth plant beetle and this was not considered in the assessment. Regarding the environment, we assessed the benefits from the release of the moth plant beetle and found that the BCA is unlikely to reduce the use of chemicals since only a small quantity of herbicide gel is used and that broad spectrum-herbicides would continue to be used to treat other weeds.

  • The Chromosome-Based Lavender Genome Provides New Insights Into
    Li et al. Horticulture Research (2021) 8:53 Horticulture Research https://doi.org/10.1038/s41438-021-00490-6 www.nature.com/hortres ARTICLE Open Access The chromosome-based lavender genome provides new insights into Lamiaceae evolution and terpenoid biosynthesis Jingrui Li1,2, Yiming Wang 3,YanmeiDong1,2, Wenying Zhang1,2,DiWang1, Hongtong Bai1,KuiLi3,HuiLi1 and Lei Shi1 Abstract The aromatic shrub Lavandula angustifolia produces various volatile terpenoids that serve as resources for essential oils and function in plant-insect communication. To better understand the genetic basis of the terpenoid diversity in lavender, we present a high-quality reference genome for the Chinese lavender cultivar ‘Jingxun 2’ using PacBio and Hi-C technologies to anchor the 894.50 Mb genome assembly into 27 pseudochromosomes. In addition to the γ triplication event, lavender underwent two rounds of whole-genome duplication (WGD) during the Eocene–Oligocene (29.6 MYA) and Miocene–Pliocene (6.9 MYA) transitions. As a result of tandem duplications and lineage-specific WGDs, gene families related to terpenoid biosynthesis in lavender are substantially expanded compared to those of five other species in Lamiaceae. Many terpenoid biosynthesis transcripts are abundant in glandular trichomes. We further integrated the contents of ecologically functional terpenoids and coexpressed terpenoid biosynthetic genes to construct terpenoid-gene networks. Typical gene clusters, including TPS-TPS, TPS- CYP450, and TPS-BAHD, linked with compounds that primarily function as attractants or repellents, were identified by fl 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; their similar patterns of change during ower development or in response to methyl jasmonate. Comprehensive analysis of the genetic basis of the production of volatiles in lavender could serve as a foundation for future research into lavender evolution, phytochemistry, and ecology.

    International Journal of Academic and Applied Research (IJAAR) ISSN: 2643-9603 Vol. 4 Issue 2, February – 2020, Pages: 5-16 Ethnomedicinal Uses of Genus Lavandula (Lamiaceae) in Turkish Traditional Medicine Mustafa Eray Bozyel*, Elif Merdamert-Bozyel Department of Biology, Faculty of Arts and Science, Canakkale Onsekiz Mart University, Canakkale, TURKEY *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract: Lavandula L. (Lamiaceae) is a widely distributed medicinal plant throughout the world and has been used since ancient time. Popular indications of the several species of this genus include treatment of stomach diseases, headache, inflammation, pains, insomnia, diuretic and expectorant. Phytochemical investigations of Lavandula species have revealed that many components from this genus are highly bioactive. There are many reports on the mentioned ethnomedicinal effects. As a result of the study, the authors found that six Lavandula taxa and two multi-herbal formulas are used as herbal medicine in Turkish traditional medicine.

  • Rapid Pest Risk Analysis (PRA) For: Aphis Nerii
    Rapid Pest Risk Analysis (PRA) for: Aphis nerii April 2015 Stage 1: Initiation 1. What is the name of the pest? Aphis nerii Boyer de Fonscolombe (Hemiptera: Aphididae). Up to 11 synonyms are associated with A. nerii, though only Aphis lutescens appears regularly in the literature. Common names: oleander aphid, milkweed aphid. 2. What initiated this rapid PRA? In November 2014 entomologists at Fera received samples of an aphid from a private residence in London that were confirmed as Aphis nerii (Sharon Reid pers. comm. 05.11.2014). These samples had been requested after the presence of the pest was published online in a blog (Taylor 2012). The species has been present at the residence every year since 2008, indicating an established population. An update to the 2002 PRA (MacLeod, 2002) was initiated to determine the implications of this establishment and the impacts the pest may have in the UK. 3. What is the PRA area? The PRA area is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. 1 Stage 2: Risk Assessment 4. What is the pest’s status in the EC Plant Health Directive (Council Directive 2000/29/EC1) and in the lists of EPPO2? The pest is not listed in the EC Plant Health Directive and is not recommended for regulation as a quarantine pest by EPPO, nor is it on the EPPO Alert List. 5. What is the pest’s current geographical distribution? The distribution of A. nerii has been described as found in “tropical to warm temperate regions throughout the world” (McAuslane, 2014) as well as including many of the remote pacific islands (Blackman et al., 1994).

In the present study were analysed the responses to salinity and drought in greenhouse-controlled conditions of two varieties of Lavandula angustifolia . Three-month-old lavender seedlings were subjected to water deficit and salt stress (100, 200 and 300 mM NaCl) during a 30-day period. Complementing a previous analysis focused on stress tolerance mechanisms based on the regulation of ion transport and the synthesis of osmolytes, we have now evaluated the effects of the water deficit and salt treatments on the generation of secondary oxidative stress, by measuring malondialdehyde levels, and the activation of antioxidant systems, both non-enzymatic and enzymatic, determining total phenolic compounds and flavonoids contents and calculating superoxide dismutase, catalase, ascorbate peroxidase and glutathione reductase specific activities, respectively, in extracts of control and stressed plants.
