В каталоге представлены названия не Anthophyta, Dicotyledones менее 5 тысяч видов и внутривидовых таксонов из 1049 родов 165 семейств сосудистых растений (Anthophyta: Dicotyledones). Получена: 05 декабря 2019 года Подписана к печати: 13 февраля 2020 года Введение Гербарий Центрального ботанического сада Национальной академии наук Беларуси основан в 1932 году. Современная история начинается с 1953, так как во время Великой Отечественной войны коллекции были утрачены. Регистрация в Index Herbariorum выполнена в 2003 году, получен индекс MSKH (Additions to Index Herbariorum, 2003). В этой коллекции представлены сборы сосудистых растений, выращиваемых в Беларуси, из природы (Беларусь, Россия, Украина, Таджикистан, Киргизия и другие территории). Наибольшую ценность, по-видимому, представляют образцы растений из коллекций ЦБС и сборы, выполненные в садах, парках, на коллекциях других ботанических учреждений Беларуси. На ноябрь 2019 года коллекции включают не менее 34 тысяч гербарных образцов, в фонде для открытого пользования 26,5 тысяч; в том числе Anthophyta: Dicotyledones – 23,9 тысяч листов (90,2 %). Каталогизация сборов – один из этапов изучения коллекций, в том числе гербарных. В Республике Беларусь наиболее значимым ботаническим коллекциям присвоен статус национального достояния, поэтому издание каталогов этих коллекций в последние 42 HORTUS BOTANICUS, 2020, T. 15, Url: http://hb.karelia.ru/ ISSN 1994-3849 Эл № ФС 77-33059 десятилетия проводится регулярно (Каталог травянистых …, 1999; Каталог тропических …, 1999, 2008; Каталог географических сборов …. 1999; Каталог сосудистых …, 2010; Каталог белорусской коллекции непатогенных микроорганизмов, 2006-2017 и др.). Каталог гербария MSKH в таком объеме публикуется впервые, в него вошли названия не менее 5 тысячи видов и внутривидовых таксонов из 1049 родов 165 семейств двудольных растений. Список таксонов стало возможным собрать благодаря использованию информационных технологий, в том числе баз данных, при инвентаризации MSKH и при текущем этикетаже листов (Кузьменкова и др., 2017). Правильность написания таксонов проверена по информационным ресурсам (Tropicos, 2018; The International Plant Names Index, 2018; Provisional Global Plant Checklist, 2018), книге С. К. Черепанова "Сосудистые растения России и сопредельных государств" (СПб., 1995). Роды отнесены к семействам, перечисленным James L.

  • JUDD W.S. Et. Al. (1999) Plant Systematics
    CHAPTER8 Phylogenetic Relationships of Angiosperms he angiosperms (or flowering plants) are the dominant group of land Tplants. The monophyly of this group is strongly supported, as dis- cussed in the previous chapter, and these plants are possibly sister (among extant seed plants) to the gnetopsids (Chase et al. 1993; Crane 1985; Donoghue and Doyle 1989; Doyle 1996; Doyle et al. 1994). The angio- sperms have a long fossil record, going back to the upper Jurassic and increasing in abundance as one moves through the Cretaceous (Beck 1973; Sun et al. 1998). The group probably originated during the Jurassic, more than 140 million years ago. Cladistic analyses based on morphology, rRNA, rbcL, and atpB sequences do not support the traditional division of angiosperms into monocots (plants with a single cotyledon, radicle aborting early in growth with the root system adventitious, stems with scattered vascular bundles and usually lacking secondary growth, leaves with parallel venation, flow- ers 3-merous, and pollen grains usually monosulcate) and dicots (plants with two cotyledons, radicle not aborting and giving rise to mature root system, stems with vascular bundles in a ring and often showing sec- ondary growth, leaves with a network of veins forming a pinnate to palmate pattern, flowers 4- or 5-merous, and pollen grains predominantly tricolpate or modifications thereof) (Chase et al. 1993; Doyle 1996; Doyle et al. 1994; Donoghue and Doyle 1989). In all published cladistic analyses the “dicots” form a paraphyletic complex, and features such as two cotyle- dons, a persistent radicle, stems with vascular bundles in a ring, secondary growth, and leaves with net venation are plesiomorphic within angio- sperms; that is, these features evolved earlier in the phylogenetic history of tracheophytes.

  • Antivenin Plants Used for Treatment of Snakebites in Uganda
    Omara et al. Tropical Medicine and Health (2020) 48:6 Tropical Medicine https://doi.org/10.1186/s41182-019-0187-0 and Health REVIEW Open Access Antivenin plants used for treatment of snakebites in Uganda: ethnobotanical reports and pharmacological evidences Timothy Omara1,2* , Sarah Kagoya3,4, Abraham Openy5, Tom Omute6, Stephen Ssebulime7, Kibet Mohamed Kiplagat8 and Ocident Bongomin9 Abstract Snakebite envenomation is a serious public health concern in rural areas of Uganda. Snakebites are poorly documented in Uganda because most occur in rural settings where traditional therapists end up being the first-line defense for treatment. Ethnobotanical surveys in Uganda have reported that some plants are used to antagonize the activity of various snake venoms. This review was sought to identify antivenin plants in Uganda and some pharmacological evidence supporting their use. A literature survey done in multidisciplinary databases revealed that 77 plant species belonging to 65 genera and 42 families are used for the treatment of snakebites in Uganda. The majority of these species belong to family Fabaceae (31%), Euphorbiaceae (14%), Asteraceae (12%), Amaryllidaceae (10%) and Solanaceae (10%). The main growth habit of the species is shrubs (41%), trees (33%) and herbs (18%). Antivenin extracts are usually prepared from roots (54%) and leaves (23%) through decoctions, infusions, powders, and juices, and are administered orally (67%) or applied topically (17%). The most frequently encountered species were Allium cepa, Carica papaya, Securidaca longipedunculata, Harrisonia abyssinica, and Nicotiana tabacum. Species with global reports of tested antivenom activity included Allium cepa, Allium sativum, Basella alba, Capparis tomentosa, Carica papaya, Cassia occidentalis, Jatropa carcus, Vernonia cinereal, Bidens pilosa, Hoslundia opposita, Maytensus senegalensis, Securinega virosa, and Solanum incanum.

    Welcome to the Caterpillar House! Job Description Short Script F.A.Q. Glossary Caterpillar Instars Caterpillar Species Profiles Buckeye Cecropia Moth Eastern Black Swallowtail Julia Longwing Monarch Pipevine Swallowtail Saddleback Caterpillar/Slug Moth Spicebush Swallowtail Zebra Longwing Job Description Thank you for volunteering in the Caterpillar House! Your goal is to engage visitors with the other important and interesting stages in a butterfly’s life and prepare visitors to enter the Flight House. Here are the key aspects of managing the Caterpillar House: One door at a time. Only one set of doors should be open at a time to minimize the possibility of butterflies escaping. The screen doors should always be locked from the outside. Open the screen door for visitors. Once the group has entered, pull the screen door closed until it clicks. After interpreting the display and preparing visitors to enter, open the doors to the Flight House. Manage the size of the groups. We recommend taking between 10-15 people at one time. People should not reach over the purple fence. Pointing at and/or touching stresses the caterpillars and causes them to stop eating. This stress can lead to health problems down the line. Tell guests to look for caterpillars next to the red ribbons. Focus on the WOW! The best way to engage visitors is to focus on what makes these animals unique and interesting. In the Short Script we’ve highlighted the main information we’d like you to share with visitors. For more interesting background information, check out the Caterpillar Species Profiles.

Brentwood Blvd. St. Louis, Missouri 63144 [email protected] JUSTIN R. THOMAS Institute of Botanical Training, LLC 111 County Road 3260 Salem, Missouri 65560 [email protected] ABSTRACT An annotated checklist of the 2,961 vascular taxa comprising the flora of Missouri is presented, with conservatism rankings for Floristic Quality Assessment. The list also provides standardized acronyms for each taxon and information on nativity, physiognomy, and wetness ratings. Annotated comments for selected taxa provide taxonomic, floristic, and ecological information, particularly for taxa not recognized in recent treatments of the Missouri flora. Synonymy crosswalks are provided for three references commonly used in Missouri. A discussion of the concept and application of Floristic Quality Assessment is presented. To accurately reflect ecological and taxonomic relationships, new combinations are validated for two distinct taxa, Dichanthelium ashei and D. werneri , and problems in application of infraspecific taxon names within Quercus shumardii are clarified.

  • The Vascular Flora of the Natchez Trace Parkway
    THE VASCULAR FLORA OF THE NATCHEZ TRACE PARKWAY (Franklin, Tennessee to Natchez, Mississippi) Results of a Floristic Inventory August 2004 - August 2006 © Dale A. Kruse, 2007 © Dale A. Kruse 2007 DATE SUBMITTED 28 February 2008 PRINCIPLE INVESTIGATORS Stephan L. Hatch Dale A. Kruse S. M. Tracy Herbarium (TAES), Texas A & M University 2138 TAMU, College Station, Texas 77843-2138 SUBMITTED TO Gulf Coast Inventory and Monitoring Network Lafayette, Louisiana CONTRACT NUMBER J2115040013 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The “Natchez Trace” has played an important role in transportation, trade, and communication in the region since pre-historic times. As the development and use of steamboats along the Mississippi River increased, travel on the Trace diminished and the route began to be reclaimed by nature. A renewed interest in the Trace began during, and following, the Great Depression. In the early 1930’s, then Mississippi congressman T. J. Busby promoted interest in the Trace from a historical perspective and also as an opportunity for employment in the area. Legislation was introduced by Busby to conduct a survey of the Trace and in 1936 actual construction of the modern roadway began. Development of the present Natchez Trace Parkway (NATR) which follows portions of the original route has continued since that time. The last segment of the NATR was completed in 2005. The federal lands that comprise the modern route total about 52,000 acres in 25 counties through the states of Alabama, Mississippi, and Tennessee. The route, about 445 miles long, is a manicured parkway with numerous associated rest stops, parks, and monuments. Current land use along the NATR includes upland forest, mesic prairie, wetland prairie, forested wetlands, interspersed with numerous small agricultural croplands.
