Experimental Evidence That Evolutionarily Diverse Assemblages Result in Higher Productivity
Experimental evidence that evolutionarily diverse assemblages result in higher productivity Marc W. Cadotte1 Department of Biological Sciences, University of Toronto Scarborough, Toronto, ON, Canada M1C 1A4; and Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada M5S 3B2 Edited by Harold A. Mooney, Stanford University, Stanford, CA, and approved April 22, 2013 (received for review January 28, 2013) There now is ample experimental evidence that speciose assemblages in polyculture against the expected performance from its mono- are more productive and provide a greater amount of ecosystem cultures (22, 23). Polycultures also might appear more productive services than depauperate ones. However, these experiments often compared with monocultures via a selection effect—if highly conclude that there is a higher probability of including complemen- productive species dominate the polyculture, displacing low- tary species combinations in assemblages with more species and lack productivity species (22). Thus, if distantly related species show a priori prediction about which species combinations maximize reduced resource overlap, then we should observe greater com- function.

What Exactly Is a “Protected Plant?” CITES: Federal Endangered Species
Orbis Environmental Consulting PO Box 10235 South Bend, IN 46680 574-635-1338 What Exactly is a “Protected Plant?” “Aren’t those protected?” “Trilliums are endangered, right?” Questions about laws pertaining to native plants are common among the environmental community and the broader public. The multitude of international, federal, and state laws, often differing in key details, can reinforce the seemingly esoteric nature of what, exactly, constitutes a “protected plant.” The following is a brief overview of pertinent laws including state- by-state lists of protected species in our immediate region (Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio). CITES: CITES, or Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, is an intergovernmental agreement to ensure that international trade in wild specimens of animals and plants does not threaten their survival. CITES is administered by the United Nations Environment Programme and, in the United States, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Listed species are assigned to one of three Appendices based on relative rarity and susceptibility to exploitation. CITES permits must be obtained for all international trade in these species. Learn more about CITES at cites.org. Federal Endangered Species Act: The Federal Endangered Species Act provides for the designation of a species as “endangered” if it is considered to be in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range, or “threatened” if it is likely to become endangered. The Federal Endangered Species Act prohibits the following: • Import or export of endangered and threatened plants from the United States • Receipt, delivery, or sale of endangered and threatened plants in interstate or foreign commerce • Removal or malicious damage or destruction of endangered plants on federal lands. -

Taxonomy and Phylogeny in Triticeae: a Historical Review and Current Status
Advances in Plants & Agriculture Research Review Article Open Access Taxonomy and phylogeny in Triticeae: a historical review and current status Abstract Volume 3 Issue 5 - 2016 The Triticeae is an economically important tribe within the Poaceae. Because a number of cereal crops and forage grasses belong to the tribe it has attracted much scientific Mohannad G Al–Saghir attention covering many species: taxonomy, phylogeny, genetics, cytogenetic, genome Department of Environmental and Plant Biology, Ohio analyses (crossing ability and chromosome pairing), isoenzymes, molecular biology University, USA (RFLP, RAPD, PCR sequencing) and breeding. This paper contains a brief historical outline of the taxonomy of the tribe. Phylogenetic hypotheses regarding this tribe Correspondence: Mohannad G Al–Saghir, Department of inferred from different methods, techniques and approaches, are reviewed. The Environmental and Plant Biology, Ohio University, Zanesville, different phylogenies are discussed and compared and conflicts are elucidated.

We can therefore conclude that the most appropriate outgroup for the tribe will be Bromus. The tribe Triticeae Dum is economically the most important tribe in the grass family (Poaceae). It encompasses between 350 and 500 Definition annual or perennial species,1–3 including the important cereal crops wheat (Triticum aestivium L.), durum wheat (T. turgidum sup. durum The Triticeae encompasses annual and perennial, caespitose or (Desf.
