We hope that this guide will be a starting point for studies dedicated to the of savory and that you will develop an understanding and appreciation of what we, the editors, deem to be an knowledge, use underutilized herb in our modern times. and delight of In starting to put this guide together we first had to ask ourselves what it would cover. Unlike dill, herbs through horseradish, or rosemary, savory is not one distinct species. It is a general term that covers mainly the educational genus Satureja, but as time and botanists have fractured the many plants that have been called programs, savories, the title now refers to multiple genera. As research and some of the most important savories still belong to the genus Satureja our main focus will be on those plants, sharing the but we will also include some of their close cousins.

Questa Pianta, Molto Piccola, Con I Fiori Viola Intenso
16 luglio 2010 (f.f.) questa pianta, molto piccola, con i fiori viola intenso può non attrarre l’attenzione dell’escursionista distratto, ma una volta che l’ha vista è inevitabile che si fermi ad ammirarla e fotografarla. IL GENERE ACINOS Famiglia Lamiaceae (o Labiatae) Acinos L. fu classificato da Linneo nel 1753. Il nome generico Acinos è preso dal latino ăcĭnǒs (usato da Plinio per riferirsi a una qualità di basilico o a erba aromatica in generale) a sua volta derivato dal greco ακιυος. Il termine greco si riferiva alla pianta di timo e, per la somiglianza tra i due generi, Linneo chiamò l’Acinos alpinus con il nome Tymus alpinus. Il genere Acinos comprende una decina di specie legnose annuali o perenni, ma di corta vita, originarie del sud-Europa e dell’Asia occidentale. Hanno dimensioni ridotte non raggiungendo mezzo metro di altezza. ACINOS ALPINUS Acinos alpinus (L.) Moench subsp. alpinus Classificata da Moench1 nel 1794 Conosciuta anche come: Thymus alpinus L., Satureja alpina (L.) Scheele, Calamintha alpina (L.) Lam. Conosciuta volgarmente come: acino alpino, santoreggia alpina. Il nome specifico alpinus deriva dal latino alpīnus, a, um (= delle Alpi) a indicare i luoghi in cui la pianta prospera.

Lamiales – Synoptical Classification Vers

Oxelman, J. Reveal, R. Scotland, J. Smith, D. Tank, E. Tripp, S. Wagstaff, E. Wallander, A. Weber, A. Wolfe, A. Wortley, N. Young, M. Zjhra, and many others [estimated 25 families, 1041 genera, and ca. 21,878 species in Lamiales] The goal of this project is to produce a working infraordinal classification of the Lamiales to genus with information on distribution and species richness. All recognized taxa will be clades; adherence to Linnaean ranks is optional. Synonymy is very incomplete (comprehensive synonymy is not a goal of the project, but could be incorporated). Although I anticipate producing a publishable version of this classification at a future date, my near- term goal is to produce a web-accessible version, which will be available to the public and which will be updated regularly through input from systematists familiar with taxa within the Lamiales.

In the current study, nutlet morphology of six Clinopodium taxa, previously treated as Acinos in Flora of Turkey, is studied for the first time using stereoscopic and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and detailed descriptions and illustrations of nutlets are described and illustrated here. According to our results, the nutlets are trigonous and oblong or obovoid shaped. The size of nutlets ranges from 1.2-2.2 mm in length and 0.6-1.5 mm in width. They are brown or dark brown in colour, and the surface patterns are papillate, cellular, ridged, reticulate-ridged or reticulate-areolate. Because nutlet surface shows variations from population to population, Clinopodium alpinum (syn: Acinos alpinus) and C. graveolens subsp. rotundifolium (syn: A. rotundifolius) should be described as species complexes. Our results show that the nutlet surface can be useful as a taxonomic character.

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.

All species of the genus were investigated for morphological characters and ITS (internal transcribed spacers) of nrDNA sequence comparison (except C. hausknechtii for ITS). Six members of the genus were also analysed for chromosome numbers. The combined results strongly suggested that Cyclotrichium is a separate genus in Nepetoideae with distinct morphological, phylogenetic, and cytogenetic characteristics. For intrageneric phylogeny of Cyclotrichium, 3 groups were recognised: 1. C. niveum; 2. C. origanifolium; and 3. the remaining 6 species. Clinopodium s.l. and Mentha appear to be most closely related -

Phylogenetic Distance Among Beneficiary Species in a Cushion Plant Species Explains Interaction Outcome
Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2015 Phylogenetic distance among beneficiary species in a cushion plant species explains interaction outcome Pistón, Nuria ; Armas, Cristina ; Schöb, Christian ; Macek, Petr ; Pugnaire, Francisco I Abstract: Determining which drivers lead to a specific species assemblage is a central issue in com- munity ecology. Although many processes are involved, plant–plant interactions are among the most important. The phylogenetic limiting similarity hypothesis states that closely related species tend to compete stronger than distantly related species, although evidence is inconclusive. We used ecological and phylogenetic data on alpine plant communities along an environmental severity gradient to assess the importance of phylogenetic relatedness in affecting the interaction between cushion plants and the whole community, and how these interactions may affect community assemblage and diversity. We first measured species richness and individual biomass of species growing within and outside the nurse cushion species, Arenaria tetraquetra. We then assembled the phylogenetic tree of species present in both com- munities and calculated the phylogenetic distance between the cushion species and its beneficiary species, as well as the phylogenetic community structure. We also estimated changes in species richness at the local level due to the presence of cushions. The effects of cushions on closely related species changed from negative to positive as environmental conditions became more severe, while the interaction with distantly related species did not change along the environmental gradient. Overall, we found an environmental context-dependence in patterns of phylogenetic similarity, as the interaction outcome between nurses and their close and distantly-related species showed an opposite pattern with environmental severity.
