  • Catalpa Bignonioides
    Pub. No. 15 April 2016 Southern Catalpa Catalpa bignonioides by Dr. Kim D. Coder, Professor of Tree Biology & Health Care Warnell School of Forestry & Natural Resources, University of Georgia The Southern catalpa (Catalpa bignonioides) tree is a common fixture along roadsides and in old landscapes. The big green leaves and distinctive long dangling fruits are noticeable from hundreds of yards away. Although used in the past for a few wood-based products and pioneer medicines, today catalpa is used for shade trees and for growing a special caterpillar. This catalpa “worm” is prized by fishing enthusiast across the South. Family Ties The catalpa tree is a member of the Catalpa or Trumpet-Creeper family (Bignoniaceae). This family contains more than 700 species scattered around the globe, primarily in tropical and sub-tropical regions. This plant family is represented by trees, shrubs and vines in North America. The trumpet creeper (Campsis radicans), cross vine (Bignonia capreolata), and two catalpa trees (Catalpa ssp.) are the most recognized natives of this family in the Southeastern United States. The exotic Asiatic Pau- lownia tree is a member of this family and has been widely planted, now reproducing on its own. The catalpa genus (Catalpa) has 12 species spread across North America, the Caribbean basin, Eastern Asia and Japan. There are two common native catalpa trees in the United States, and one exotic (Catalpa ovata - Chinese catalpa). Catalpa speciosa is the larger and more northern growing of the two native trees. Common names for this catalpa are Northern catalpa, Western catalpa, and catawba-tree. Catalpa bignonioides is the native Southern catalpa.

The mpI ortance of Geographic and Biological Variables in Predicting the Naturalization of Non-Native Woody Plants in the Upper Midwest Abstract The es lection, introduction, and cultivation of non-native woody plants beyond their native ranges can have great benefits, but also unintended consequences. Among these consequences is the tendency for some species to naturalize and become invasive pests in new environments to which they were introduced. In lieu of lengthy and costly field trials, risk-assessment models can be used to predict the likelihood of naturalization.

  • Plant Materials Tech Note
    United States Department of Agriculture NATURAL RESOURCES CONSERVATION SERVICE Plant Materials Plant Materials Technical Note No. MT-33 September 1999 PLANT MATERIALS TECH NOTE DESCRIPTION, PROPAGATION, AND USE OF SILVERBERRY Elaeagnus commutata. Introduction: Silverberry Elaeagnus commutata Bernh. ex. Rydb is a native shrub with potential use in streambank stabilization, wildlife habitat, windbreaks, and naturalistic landscaping projects. The purpose of this bulletin is to transfer information on the identification, culture, and proper use of this species. FIGURE 1 FRUIT STEM FOLIAGE I. DESCRIPTION Silverberry is a multi-stemmed, deciduous shrub ranging from 1.5 to 3.6 m (5 to 12 ft.) tall. In Montana, heights of 1.5 to 2.4 m (5 to 8 ft.) are most common. It has an erect, upright habit with slender and sometimes twisted branches. The new stems are initially a light to medium brown color, the bark becoming dark gray, but remaining smooth, with age. The leaves are deciduous, alternate, 38 to 89 mm (1.5 to 3.5 in.) long and 19 to 38 mm (0.75 to 1.5 in.) wide (see Figure 1). The leaf shape is described as oval to narrowly ovate with an entire leaf margin. Both the upper and lower leaf surfaces are covered with silvery white scales, the bottom sometimes with brown spots. The highly fragrant, yellow flowers are trumpet-shaped (tubular), approximately 13 mm (0.5 in.) in length, and borne in the leaf axils in large numbers in May or June. The fruit is a silvery-colored, 7.6 mm (0.3 in.) long, egg-shaped drupe that ripens in September to October.

  • Cytogenetics of Fraxinus Mandshurica and F. Quadrangulata: Ploidy Determination and Rdna Analysis
    Tree Genetics & Genomes (2020) 16:26 https://doi.org/10.1007/s11295-020-1418-6 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Cytogenetics of Fraxinus mandshurica and F. quadrangulata: ploidy determination and rDNA analysis Nurul Islam-Faridi1,2 & Mary E. Mason3 & Jennifer L. Koch4 & C. Dana Nelson5,6 Received: 22 July 2019 /Revised: 1 January 2020 /Accepted: 16 January 2020 # The Author(s) 2020 Abstract Ashes (Fraxinus spp.) are important hardwood tree species in rural, suburban, and urban forests of the eastern USA. Unfortunately, emerald ash borer (EAB, Agrilus planipennis) an invasive insect pest that was accidentally imported from Asia in the late 1980s–early 1990s is destroying them at an alarming rate. All North American ashes are highly susceptible to EAB, although blue ash (F. quadrangulata) may have some inherent attributes that provide it some protection. In contrast Manchurian ash (F. mandshurica) is relatively resistant to EAB having coevolved with the insect pest in its native range in Asia. Given its level of resistance, Manchurian ash has been considered for use in interspecies breeding programs designed to transfer resistance to susceptible North American ash species. One prerequisite for successful interspecies breeding is consistency in chromosome ploidy level and number between the candidate species. In the current study, we cytologically determined that both Manchurian ash and blue ash are diploids (2n) and have the same number of chromosomes (2n =2x = 46). We also characterized these species’ ribosomal gene families (45S and 5S rDNA) using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Both Manchurian and blue ash showed two 45S rDNA and one 5S rDNA sites, but blue ash appears to have an additional site of 45S rDNA.

  • Textual Research for Latin Names and Medicinal Effects of Low Grade Drugs in Shennongbencaojing
    J Chin Med 24(1): 65-84, 2013 65 TEXTUAL RESEARCH FOR LATIN NAMES AND MEDICINAL EFFECTS OF LOW GRADE DRUGS IN SHENNONGBENCAOJING Shu-Ling Liu*, Chao-Lin Kuo, Yu-Jen Ko, Ming-Tsuen Hsieh Department of Chinese Pharmaceutical Sciences and Chinese Medicine Resources, College of Pharmacy, China Medical University, Taichung, Taiwan ( Received 11th May 2012, accepted 23th August 2012 ) The textual research for Latin names and medicinal effects of Shennongbencaojing, after Top Grade and Medium Grade, the Low Grade Drugs was studied. The Low Grade Drugs were divided, in the same way for Top and Medium Grade Drugs, into 6 groups and their drugs number were also shown in the following order: Plant (72 drugs), Mineral (7 drugs), Animal (6 drugs), Fish and Shellfish (2 drugs), Insect (14 drugs) and Other (2 drugs). The number of Low Grade Drugs in Sun’s edition was summed up to 103. In this study, many drugs were considered to be toxic such as: Aconitum carmichaeli (No. 1), Pinellia ternata (No. 4), Rheum palmatum (No. 7), Hyoscyamus niger (No. 10), Veratrum nigrum (No. 13), Gelsemium elegans (No. 14), Dichroa febrifuga (No. 17), Euphorbia pekinensis (No. 24), Agrimonia pilosa (No. 29), Rhododendron molle (No. 30), Phytolacca acinosa (No. 31) etc. They were also listed in the Poisonous Weeds Class of Compendium of Materia Medica. Modern research has confirmed that most of the Low Grade Drugs are toxic as well. For four drugs, Guanjun (No. 22), Yangtao (No. 37), Wujiu (No. 41) and Yaoshigen (No. 64) their botanical names have not yet been defined. Some drugs might have different medicinal names by various used parts but were originated in the same scientific name.

  • Crataegus in Ohio with Description of One New Species
    CRATAEGUS IN OHIO WITH DESCRIPTION OF ONE NEW SPECIES ERNEST J. PALMER Webb City, Missouri This review of Crataegus in Ohio has been made in cooperation with the Ohio Flora Committee of the Ohio Academy of Science as a contribution to their forth- coming flora of the state. Many of the universities and colleges of the state have sent collections of herbarium specimens to me for examination, and information has been drawn from these and other sources including some private collections. The large collection in the herbarium of the Ohio State University, covering most of the state, has been particularly helpful. Other institutions sending large col- lections were the University of Cincinnati, Oberlin College, Miami University, and Defiance College. Dr. E. Lucy Braun also sent many interesting collections from her private herbarium; and she has given invaluable assistance in outlining the work and in cooperating with it in many ways. In addition to the larger collections mentioned above, specimens have been received from Ohio University, Dennison University, Kent State University, Antioch College, and from the private collection of Mr. John Guccion of Cleveland. Dr. Gerald B. Ownbey also sent a number of collections from Ohio deposited in the herbarium of the University of Minnesota. The large amount of material from Ohio in the her- barium of the Arnold Arboretum, Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, was also checked, including duplicates of many of the collections seen in Ohio herbaria, and also fuller collections made by R. E. Horsey in many parts of the state, and by F. J. Tyler, Harry Crowfoot, and C.
