Knowledge of this family is essential for studies on the origin, evolution and systematics of Angiosperms. There are 223 species belongs to this family in the world and 25 of them are found in Indonesia. This paper explains taxonomy, distribution, and conservation status of the family Magnoliaceae in Indonesia. Key words: Magnoliaceae, taxonomy, distribution, conservation status, Indonesia Abstrak Magnoliaceae adalah salah satu suku tumbuhan primitif di dunia. Mengetahui dan mempelajari anggota suku ini merupakan sesuatu yang esensial untuk studi asal‐usul, evolusi, dan sistematika dari Angiosperma. Terdapat 223 jenis yang tercatat sebagai anggota suku ini dan 25 jenis di antaranya dapat ditemukan di Indonesia. Dalam tulisan ini akan dijelaskan mengenai status taksonomi, distribusi dan status konservasi untuk jenis‐jenis dari Suku Magnoliaceae yang ada di Indonesia.

Para ahli botani tumbuhan berbunga lainnya. Bunga jenis‐jenis meyakini bahwa dengan mempelajari suku ini, Magnoliaceae tersusun spiral, sepal dan maka dapat pula dipelajari asal‐usul, evolusi dan petalnya tidak secara jelas terdiferensiasi. sistematika tumbuhan Angiosperma (Cicuzza et Menurut Cicuzza et al. (2007), Magnoliaceae al., 2007). Namun demikian, meskipun para ahli tergolong tumbuhan yang mengalami proses telah banyak mempelajari Suku Magnoliaceae, evolusi yang sudah berjalan jutaan tahun yang hubungan kekerabatan suku ini dengan suku lalu. Sebuah analisis filogenetik molekuler tumbuhan yang lain masih menjadi perdebatan, memperkirakan bahwa suku ini telah ada sekitar baik berdasarkan karakter morfologi (Howard, 42‐36 juta tahun yang lalu di daerah tropis dan 1948; Canright, 1952, 1960; Nooteboom, 1985, subtropis, sedangkan di daerah subtropis‐ 1987, 1988; Chen dan Nooteboom, 1993; van temperate telah ada sejak 28‐25 juta tahun yang Balgooy, 1998) maupun molekuler (Azuma et lalu (Azuma et al., 2001). al., 1999, 2001; Shi et al., 2000; Kim et al., 2001; Li dan Conran, 2003). Potensi dari Suku Magnoliaceae sangat beragam. Beberapa anggota suku ini Figlar dan Nooteboom (2004) merupakan tumbuhan ornamental, penghasil mengungkapkan klasifikasi Suku Magnoliaceae, kayu yang bagus dan memiliki potensi sebagai khususnya di kawasan Malesia yang didasarkan tanaman obat. Menurut Heyne (1987), anggota pada kombinasi karakter molekuler dan Suku Magnoliaceae yang merupakan tumbuhan morfologinya. Berdasarkan klasifikasi tersebut, ornamental, antara lain Magnolia champaca Suku Magnoliaceae dibagi menjadi dua anak (bunga cempaka, bunga kantil), penghasil kayu suku yaitu Liriodendroideae dan Magnolioideae. contohnya M. montana sebagai kayu substitusi Anak suku Liriodendroideae terdiri atas 1 dari kayu Jati dan M. blumei (Baros, Manglid). marga, yaitu Liriodendron, sedangkan marga Jenis yang telah dikenal berpotensi sebagai yang termasuk dalam anak suku Magnoliaceae, tumbuhan obat sejak 2000 tahun yang lalu seperti Elmerrillia, Manglietia, Michelia dan adalah M. officinalis (jenis endemik di China) (Yu Pachylarnax bergabung menjadi satu marga et al., 2011). yaitu Magnolia.

  • Issue 67 16-19 Some Reflections on Evergreen
    MAGNOLIA ISSUE 67 Some Reflections on Evergreen Magnolia Matings S. Christopher Early About thirty-five years ago I was in California visiting some of the scientific companies we represented here in the southeast. At that time, I was fortunate to acquire some cuttings of Manglieriai nsigttis and Mugtralia coco. I was told rhat M i nsr'gttis was difficult to mot, and as it turned out, I coco uas much easier. To root the M. insignis, I inserted the cuttings in a medium of perlite, which I placed in a wire screen basket and suspended over the top of a large wastebasket. I added water to the wastebasket and rigged a 100-watt bulb between the water and the growing medium. To aerate the water, I used a small fish tank pump. One cutting rooted! When this cutting grew into a small tree in our atrium, it intermittently bore a few pink flowers with nearly invisible pollen (see photo). (I must say this plant has an ephemeral blooming habit as to year and time of year!) The pistils on one or two of the M. ittsignis flowers accepted pollen from a version of M vireos'ni rnd found near Savannah, which I call " "Savannah. (The ofFspring of this version of M virginiatta often bloom as smal! plants along the highway and are cut down by the mowers. ) The result of this cross formed seed from which I grew six plants, two of which were about nvelve feet tall. In 1997, one of the two tall seedlings bloomed with pink flowers about the size of the Manglietia.

  • Magnolias in Thailand
    sssssa $2 MAOssOLIA Magnolias in Thalland- a growerss point of view Thlnokom Komkns To ordinary Thai people who are just interested in plants, Magnoliaceae is known as a group of scented flowering trees and shrubs called "Champee" or "Champs" which are the common names for the similar and widely cultivated Magnolia x alba (white flowered) and Magnolia champaca (orange flowered). When gmwn near houses, these trees can perfume the whole compound during the flowering sea- son. Most magnolia enthusiasts, including me, must admit that in the beginning, we may not care so much for these local cultivated magnolias as they are not very spectacular and there are so many other fragrant flowering trees to choose from instead. However, as I learned more about magnolias, I became increasingly at- tracted by their beauty, especially of the exotic temperate magnolias that were aro- matic, as well. That these temperate magnolias are closely related to our Champee and Champa (which were formerly c)asstfied in the genus Michelia) made me even happier since these and our local magnolias can be grafted together. Such grafting helps us grow the temperate cultivars here in the tropics and lights up our hope that someday we may develop a hybrid with heat tolerance as well as beauty. That The author, Thinokom Komkns (right), in his garden/nursery wah Hans Nooteboom. 22 ~ sAetaoLIA issue 81 is how serious growers, like myself, became interested in all magnolias available to us. I would need to write a whole book if I were to discuss each individual cul- tivar, so I would prefer to group my magnolias in my own way and discuss each group from my point of view as a grower —hrst with my local magnolias and lat- er with the imported exotics.

They also provide new examples of phenotypic plasticity in plants. The type of perforation plate in vessel members is one of the most relevant features for taxonomic studies. InMagnolia , until now, two types of perforation plates have been reported: the conservative, scalariform and the specialized, simple one. In this paper, are presented some findings, new to magnolia wood science, like exclusively simple perforation plates in some species or mixed perforation plates – simple and scalariform in one vessel member. Intravascular pitting is another taxonomically important trait of vascular tissue. Interesting transient states between different patterns of pitting in one cell only have been found. This proves great flexibility of mechanisms, which elaborate cell wall structure in maturing trache- ary element. The comparison of this data with phylogenetic trees, based on the fossil records and plastid gene expression, clearly shows that there is a link between the type of perforation plate and the degree of evolutionary specialization within Magnolia genus.

  • Magnolia 'Mon Champa'
    ISSUE 86 MAGNOLIA Magnolia 'Mon Cham/a' My Ultimate Yellow Magnolia 5orho Suesotcha I am just a magnolia enthusiast without any background in botany or horticul- ture living in the tropical country of Thailand. My location is approximately goo miles (48o kilometers) north of Bangkok. It's a typical lowland, elevation 6Soft (zoom), with a not-so-hunud tropical climate where it is too warm for most of the magnificent colorful temperate magnolias. This limits my ability to grow any more than a few species and cultivars of both local (especially the hill spe- cies) as well as the exotics (including a few subgenus Yn lani a cultiva rs). Thus, I have concluded that if I want more diversification in my collection, I will have to attempt to create hybrids among my own tropical species and culti vers and/ or with the exotics. So, I began to get serious about this about four years ago and now I'm beginning to see some results. By luck, the first one that has flowered is very encouraging: a yellow hybrid of which I am rather proud and consider to be an ultimate yellow. It's a cross be- tween Mngnalia liliifi rn var. liliifcra (known locally as Montha) and (Mngnalin champaca (known locally as Champs). Unlike, most of the temperate yellow magnolia cultivars that obtain their creamy or pale-yellow pigmentation from M. ncnminnln, the yellow in this new hybrid is a bright or golden yellow. My magnolia friends who have more botanical background than I would not expect that I could make this cross and they themselves probably would have never attempted it.
