    Gardens’ Bulletin Singapore 63(1 & 2): 63–70. 2011 63 A taxonomic study of the Pandanus furcatus and P. tectorius complexes (Pandanaceae) in Java Sri Endarti Rahayu1, Alex Hartana2 , Tatik Chikmawati2 and Kuswata Kartawinata3 1Graduate School of Bogor Agricultural University, Biology Department, National University, Indonesia [email protected] (corresponding author) 2Bogor Agricultural University, Indonesia 3 Herbarium Bogoriense, Botany Division, Research Center for Biology, Indonesian Institute of Sciences, Cibinong Science Center (CSC), Jl. Raya Jakarta-Bogor Km 46, Cibinong, Bogor 16911, Indonesia; and Botany Department, Field Museum, Chicago, Illionis, U.S.A. ABSTRACT. Current taxonomic problems in Pandanus in Java include the interpretation of the Pandanus furcatus complex as well as the P. tectorius complex. A study of general morphological, stomatal and molecular characteristics (viz., the noncoding chloroplast intergenic spacer region atpB-rbcL) showed that P. bantamensis Koord., P. pseudolais Warb., and P. scabrifolius Martelli, previously considered synonyms of P. furcatus, and P. tectorius var. littoralis Martelli and P. odoratissimus L.f. are all distinct species. Keywords. Anatomy, atpB-rbcL, Java, morphology, Pandanus furcatus complex, Pandanus tectorius complex Introduction The term species complex was used to describe a species aggregation sharing specific morphological and molecular features (Judd et al. 1999). Within such a complex, a complicated morphological overlap, without any discontinuities, has led to taxonomic difficulty (Pak and Kawano 1992). Although their taxonomic affinity may be difficult to determine, some form of taxonomic resolution is desirable. According to Stone (1972), Pandanus Parkinson in Java contains many rather problematic species. He suggested that detailed studies were required to obtain a more refined taxonomic scheme.

    Chapter 6 ENUMERATION . ENUMERATION The spermatophytic plants with their accepted names as per The Plant List [http://www.theplantlist.org/ ], through proper taxonomic treatments of recorded species and infra-specific taxa, collected from Gorumara National Park has been arranged in compliance with the presently accepted APG-III (Chase & Reveal, 2009) system of classification. Further, for better convenience the presentation of each species in the enumeration the genera and species under the families are arranged in alphabetical order. In case of Gymnosperms, four families with their genera and species also arranged in alphabetical order. The following sequence of enumeration is taken into consideration while enumerating each identified plants. (a) Accepted name, (b) Basionym if any, (c) Synonyms if any, (d) Homonym if any, (e) Vernacular name if any, (f) Description, (g) Flowering and fruiting periods, (h) Specimen cited, (i) Local distribution, and (j) General distribution. Each individual taxon is being treated here with the protologue at first along with the author citation and then referring the available important references for overall and/or adjacent floras and taxonomic treatments. Mentioned below is the list of important books, selected scientific journals, papers, newsletters and periodicals those have been referred during the citation of references.

  • Benstonea Sp) from RIAU, INDONESIA USING THREE DNA BARCODES
    RESEARCH ARTICLE SABRAO Journal of Breeding and Genetics 49 (4) 346-360, 2017 IDENTIFICATION OF PANDAN PLANT (Benstonea sp) FROM RIAU, INDONESIA USING THREE DNA BARCODES DEWI INDRIYANI ROSLIM1 1Genetic Laboratory, Department of Biology, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, University of Riau, Binawidya Campus, Jl HR Soebrantas Km 12.5, Panam, Pekanbaru, Riau, Indonesia *Corresponding author’s email: [email protected] SUMMARY Pandan from Riau is one of the important plants in Kajuik Lake located in Langgam, Riau Province of Indonesia, although its scientific name has not been recognized. This study reports the use of three DNA barcodes: matK, rbcL, and trnL-trnF intergenic spacer; to determine the Pandan’s taxonomic status. The methods included DNA isolation, PCR, electrophoresis, and sequencing. The software BLASTn, BioEdit, and MEGA were used to analyze the data. The matK, rbcL, and trnL-trnF intergenic spacer sequences obtained were 639 bp, 539 bp, and 1014 bp in size, respectively. The results showed that although the identification had already been performed using two standard DNA barcodes sequences for plants, i.e. the matK and rbcL, and also the trnL-trnF intergenic spacer sequence which was commonly used as a DNA barcode in Pandanaceae and abundantly available in GenBank, none of them had 100% similarity to Pandan from Riau. In addition, the dendrogram generated from those sequences showed that Pandan from Riau had the closest relationship with a few species of Benstonea rather than Pandanus, Martellidendron, and Freycinetia. It can be concluded that the scientific name of Pandan from Riau can only be determined up to the genus level, i.e.

  • Those Amazing Magnolia Fruits Richard B
    (sr or 72 MAGIVOIIA Those Amazing Magnolia Fruits Richard B. Fig far Unlike people who are interested in growing nut trees like Juglans or fruit trees such as Malus, those who cultivate magnolias are mainly interested in the flowers, not the fruits. Though some fruits of mag- nolia species are quite ornamental, I find the fruits to be most useful for studying the differences (or similarities) between species or groups of species of Magnolias. Taxonomists have long had a similar interest in observing fruits of Magnoliaceae and they have often used those differences or perceived differences in fruit characters to justify their systems for classification of Magnoliaceae. When James E. Dandy codified his system of Magnoliaceae in 1927, he based much of his classification on fruit characters. This basis remained virtually unchanged for the rest of his life, for example (adapted from Dandy r964); A. Fruiting carpels dehiscent, not fleshy, B. Carpels free, in fruit dehiscent along the dorsal suture, C. Ovules 4 or more in each carpel . .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. Manglietia C. Ovules a in each carpel (rarely 3-4 in the lower carpels) .. Magnolia B. Carpels concrescent at least at the base, in fruit circumscissile and woody, the upper portions falling away either singly or in irregular masses, the lower portions persistent with suspended seeds; stipules adnate to the petiole . Talauma A. Fruiting carpels indehiscent, concrescent to form a fleshy syncarp; etc Aromadendron As new species were discovered, taxonomists often followed Dandy's guidelines regarding fruit characters, which resulted in the creation of even more Magnoliaceae genera based on relatively minor varia- tions in the fruits.

  • Terra Australis 30
    terra australis 30 Terra Australis reports the results of archaeological and related research within the south and east of Asia, though mainly Australia, New Guinea and island Melanesia — lands that remained terra australis incognita to generations of prehistorians. Its subject is the settlement of the diverse environments in this isolated quarter of the globe by peoples who have maintained their discrete and traditional ways of life into the recent recorded or remembered past and at times into the observable present. Since the beginning of the series, the basic colour on the spine and cover has distinguished the regional distribution of topics as follows: ochre for Australia, green for New Guinea, red for South-East Asia and blue for the Pacific Islands. From 2001, issues with a gold spine will include conference proceedings, edited papers and monographs which in topic or desired format do not fit easily within the original arrangements. All volumes are numbered within the same series. List of volumes in Terra Australis Volume 1: Burrill Lake and Currarong: Coastal Sites in Southern New South Wales. R.J.

(2000). Dictyochaeta and Dictyochaetopsis species from the Pandanaceae. Fungal Diversity 4: 133-158. The genera Dictyochaeta and Dictyochaetopsis are discussed with records from the Pandanaceae. Five new species of Dictyochaeta are described. Twenty six species are transferred from Codinaea to Dictyochaeta, and four species are transferred to Dictyochaetopsis. Keys are provided to those species of Dictyochaeta described since 1991, and to all species of Dictyochaetopsis. Key words: anamorphic fungi, Freycinetia, keys, microfungi, mitosporic fungi, Pandanus, taxonomy. Introduction Arambarri and Cabello (1989) used cluster analysis to determine the similarities of 114 species of phialidic dematiaceous hyphomycetes, based on their morphological similarity (using 28 characters). They found that most species in Dictyochaeta were closely related, and thus concluded the genus Dictyochaeta (syn. Codinaea) to be well defined. Due to the presence of lateral phia1ides, produced from the setae or conidiophores, Codinaea apicalis (Berk. and M.A. Curtis) S. Hughes and W.B. Kendr., Codinaea state of Chaetosphaeria dingleyae S. Hughes and W.B. Kendr., Codinaea elegantissima Lunghini, C.

    ISSN 1020-3435 ISSN Annon-woodnon-wood information bulletin on Non-Wood Forest Products JANUARY 2009 18 EDITORIAL The editorial for this issue of Non-Wood News has been written by Dr Maxim Lobovikov, Chief of the Forest Products Service. The current global financial crisis aggravates food security problems and draws more attention to non-wood forest products (NWFPs), particularly as an alternative source of food. Forests rarely provide the bulk of the human diet, but their role in food security is often critical. Forests and trees are significant sources CONTENTS of food such as fruits, berries, leaves, honey, mushrooms and bushmeat. Rural livestock often depends on fodder from forests. Wildlife in the forest environment 3 Guest article provides an essential part of animal protein for the rural poor. A recent study % Including non-wood forest products undertaken in three communities in southern Cameroon revealed that, while in ecological restoration agriculture provided 80 percent of the carbohydrate intake, rural Cameroonians received 90 percent of their protein from bushmeat. Forest fruits and herbs are 5 Special Features excellent sources of vitamins and nutrients for rural dwellers. Millions of Asians % Boreal forests depend largely on fish supplies from mangrove forests. According to the 2005 • Supporting the development of FAO Global Forest Resources Assessment (FRA), the reported value of forest non-timber forest products: food removals exceeds US$1.3 billion, of which about US$820 billion are lessons from the boreal forest of attributed to Asia. the Russian Federation • The Siberian Bikin watershed The role of forestry and NWFPs increases in crisis situations after wars and • Ontario to preserve half of its boreal during natural, economic and social disasters when nutrition, fuel for cooking forest and heating, and timber for the reconstruction of homes and animal shelters • The Northern Forest Diversification become critical.
