  • 1 Ornamental Palms
    1 Ornamental Palms: Biology and Horticulture T.K. Broschat and M.L. Elliott Fort Lauderdale Research and Education Center University of Florida, Davie, FL 33314, USA D.R. Hodel University of California Cooperative Extension Alhambra, CA 91801, USA ABSTRACT Ornamental palms are important components of tropical, subtropical, and even warm temperate climate landscapes. In colder climates, they are important interiorscape plants and are often a focal point in malls, businesses, and other public areas. As arborescent monocots, palms have a unique morphology and this greatly influences their cultural requirements. Ornamental palms are over- whelmingly seed propagated, with seeds of most species germinating slowly and being intolerant of prolonged storage or cold temperatures. They generally do not have dormancy requirements, but do require high temperatures (30–35°C) for optimum germination. Palms are usually grown in containers prior to trans- planting into a field nursery or landscape. Because of their adventitious root system, large field-grown specimen palms can easily be transplanted. In the landscape, palm health and quality are greatly affected by nutritional deficien- cies, which can reduce their aesthetic value, growth rate, or even cause death. Palm life canCOPYRIGHTED also be shortened by a number of MATERIAL diseases or insect pests, some of which are lethal, have no controls, or have wide host ranges. With the increasing use of palms in the landscape, pathogens and insect pests have moved with the Horticultural Reviews, Volume 42, First Edition. Edited by Jules Janick. 2014 Wiley-Blackwell.

This palm is endemic to the Mascarene Islands, which are located to the east of Madagascar in the Genus Indian Ocean. The palm naturally inhabits the well-drained sandy soils of upland forests and coastal Hyophorbe is a combination of two Greek words: savannas. In the United States, this palm grows in hyo meaning "pig, hog" and phorb, meaning "feed, south Florida, extreme southern California, and the fodder." The name is thought to come from the use of Hawaiian Islands. This slow-growing tree can reach the palm's fruit for pig fodder. heights that range from 20 to 25 feet, growing best in full sunlight.

Abstract Mechanisms of genome evolution are fundamental to our understanding of adaptation and the generation and maintenance of biodiversity, yet genome dynamics are still poorly characterized in many clades. Strong correlations between variation in genomic attributes and species diversity across the plant tree of life suggest that polyploidy or other mechanisms of genome size change confer selective advantages due to the introduction of genomic novelty.

  • Ontogeny and Structure of the Acervulate Partial Inflorescence in Hyophorbe Lagenicaulis (Arecaceae; Arecoideae)

E-mail [email protected] Received: 8 December 2010 Returned for revision: 4 January 2011 Accepted: 29 March 2011 Published electronically: 28 June 2011 † Background and Aims The palm tribe Chamaedoreeae displays flowers arranged in a complex partial inflores- cence called an acervulus. This type of partial inflorescence has so far not been reported elsewhere in the largest palm subfamily Arecoideae, which is traditionally characterized by flowers predominantly arranged in triads of one central female and two lateral male flowers. The ontogenetic basis of the acervulus is as yet unknown and its structural diversity throughout the genera of the Chamaedoreeae poorly recorded. This study aims to provide criti- cal information on these aspects. † Methods Developmental series and mature inflorescences were sampled from plants cultivated in international botanical gardens and wild populations. The main techniques employed included scanning electronic microscopy and serial anatomical sectioning of resin-embedded fragments of rachillae. † Key Results Inflorescence ontogeny in Hyophorbe lagenicaulis demonstrates that the acervulus and the inflor- escence rachilla form a condensed and cymose branching system resembling a coenosome. Syndesmy results from a combined process of rapid development and adnation, without or with reduced axis elongation.

Kirchoff Premise of research. The sexuality of flowers is an important reproductive character in angiosperms. An insight into the evolutionary events that led to the appearance of monoecious and dioecious species can be gained by comparing closely related groups with contrasting characters. For this study, we focused on the tribe Chamaedoreeae, within which dioecy appears to have evolved twice from a monoecious ancestor. Methodology. To improve our knowledge of flower structure and ontogeny in this group, SEM and an- atomical sectioning were performed on inflorescences and flowers of the dioecious species Chamaedorea tepejilote and the monoecious species Hyophorbe lagenicaulis at different developmental stages.
