This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract Based on sequence data from cox1, cox2, ITS and Keywords Dentaria . Host range . Obligate parasites . LSU rDNA, it is shown that at least six species of Peronospora . Peronosporaceae Hyaloperonospora occur on the genus Cardamine,mostof which were commonly classified under Peronospora dentariae. Based on sequences from their type hosts, Introduction Peronospora dentariae, Peronospora cardamines-laciniatae, Peronospora dentariae-macrophyllae, Peronospora malyi Recent molecular phylogenetic studies showed that the genus and Peronospora nasturtii-aquatici are combined into Hyaloperonospora, established by Constantinescu and Fatehi Hyaloperonospora, and their circumscription is clarified. (2002)forPeronospora species infecting Brassicaceae, Hyaloperonospora cardamines-enneaphyllos is described as Capparaceae, Cistaceae, Limnanthaceae, Resedaceae and a new species from Cardamine enneaphyllos. The host range Zygophyllaceae, comprises a high biodiversity, its species of Hyaloperonospora nasturtii-aquatici, described from usually being highly host specific (e.g. Riethmüller et al. Nasturtium officinale, is shown to extend to various 2002;Choietal.2003; Voglmayr 2003; Göker et al. 2003, Cardamine species. Host range of species is shown to be 2004, 2009a;Choietal.2011; Voglmayr and Göker 2011). highly diagnostic, with no overlap in their host range, but Therefore, a narrow species circumscription as already advo- species commonly cannot be distinguished by morphology catedbyGäumann(1918, 1923) has been confirmed, alone. -
Alyssum) and the Correct Name of the Goldentuft Alyssum
ARNOLDIA VE 1 A continuation of the BULLETIN OF POPULAR INFORMATION of the Arnold Arboretum, Harvard University VOLUME 26 JUNE 17, 1966 NUMBERS 6-7 ORNAMENTAL MADWORTS (ALYSSUM) AND THE CORRECT NAME OF THE GOLDENTUFT ALYSSUM of the standard horticultural reference works list the "Madworts" as MANYa group of annuals, biennials, perennials or subshrubs in the family Cru- ciferae, which with the exception of a few species, including the goldentuft mad- wort, are not widely cultivated. The purposes of this article are twofold. First, to inform interested gardeners, horticulturists and plantsmen that this exception, with a number of cultivars, does not belong to the genus Alyssum, but because of certain critical and technical characters, should be placed in the genus Aurinia of the same family. The second goal is to emphasize that many species of the "true" .~lyssum are notable ornamentals and merit greater popularity and cul- tivation. The genus Alyssum (now containing approximately one hundred and ninety species) was described by Linnaeus in 1753 and based on A. montanum, a wide- spread European species which is cultivated to a limited extent only. However, as medicinal and ornamental garden plants the genus was known in cultivation as early as 1650. The name Alyssum is of Greek derivation : a meaning not, and lyssa alluding to madness, rage or hydrophobia. Accordingly, the names Mad- wort and Alyssum both refer to the plant’s reputation as an officinal herb. An infu- sion concocted from the leaves and flowers was reputed to have been administered as a specific antidote against madness or the bite of a rabid dog. -

2005 THE MICHIGAN BOTANIST 13 THE ROLE OF FIRE IN GREAT LAKES ALVAR LANDSCAPES Judith Jones1 and Carol Reschke2 1Author for correspondence. Winter Spider Eco-Consulting, R.R. #1 Sheguiandah, Manitoulin Island, Ontario P0P 1W0 Canada E-mail: [email protected] . 2The Natural Resources Research Institute University of Minnesota 5013 Miller Trunk Highway Duluth, Minnesota 55811 E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The role of fire in alvar landscapes in the Great Lakes region of the United States and Canada was examined through the notes of the original land surveyors, through field work which looked for burn evidence, and through a comparison of alvars on two sets of aerial photographs taken 40 to 45 years apart. The results show that alvars existed in all regions of the Great Lakes prior to settlement of the area by European immigrants. Also, fire can create alvars and has done so in the last 150 years. Some alvar community types correlate strongly with past burning while others correlate with no burning. Some community types show noticeable change in a 40 year period while others show lit- tle or none. Although the presence of burn evidence is common, fire is shown to be infrequent in alvar landscapes, with some communities experiencing fire return intervals of at least 200–500 years. In these communities, fire is not the primary factor maintaining the open condition. The history of Great Lakes alvars is shown to be diverse and complex. Controlled burning is not recommended for all sites or all alvar community types. INTRODUCTION “Alvar” is a Swedish word used for the grasslands on the island of Oland, in the Baltic Sea. -

Castroc,*, E.R. érskovc aThe Royal Society Fellowship Grant, Gansu Agricultural University, Lanzhou, China bCommonwealth Fellowship Grant, University of Cape Coast, Cape Coast, Ghana cRowett Research Institute, Bucksburn, Aberdeen, AB21 9SB, UK Received 25 August 1998; received in revised form 2 March 1999; accepted 29 March 1999 Abstract The nutritive value of 22 native forages consisting of sedge, grass, forb and shrub species harvested in August, September and October from the Tibetan Plateau of China was assessed by using chemical, in sacco degradability and in vitro gas production analyses. Generally, data from the study showed that metabolizable energy value (ME) as estimated by in vitro gas production and chemical composition data decreased with maturity. Forb forages had the highest ME value (9.18 MJ/kg) and grasses the lowest (8.74 MJ/kg). ME value of grasses showed a sharp decrease from August to September, then it remained constant. Other forages showed a linear decrease of ME value with maturity. The relative decrease in the content of nitrogen available for microbial degradation (degradable N g/kg DOM) with maturity was similar for sedge, grass and forb species. Grazing of sedges and forbs in mixed communities of grasses may be important for supplying extra nitrogen for microbial fermentation and increasing efficiency of utilisation of grasses. Data from in vitro gas production completed in presence of polyethylene-glycol 4000 (PEG), a phenolic-related binding agent, showed that some species of sedges, forbs and shrub might contain large amounts of inhibitory compounds to rumen microbes. -

Coleóptera, Nitidulidae, Meligethes, taxonomy, Morphometric Discriminant Analysis, allozymes, host-plants Abstract. An analysis of morphometric and bionomic data (as well as the genetic evidence discussed in a companion paper) clearly shows thatMeligethes matronalis Audisio & Spornraft, 1990 and M. subaeneus Sturm, 1845 (members of theMeligethes coracinus complex: Coleoptera, Nitidulidae, Meligethinae), recently synonymised by Kirejtshuk (1997), are distinct species. The two species are also compared with the closely related M. coracinus Sturm, 1845.Meligethes matronalis is strictly associated with Hesperis matronalis L. (Brassicaceae) in early Summer, whereas the larvae of the frequently syntopicM. subaeneus develop on Cardamine spp. (Brassicaceae) in Spring; M. coracinus is a more polyphagous species, developing from early Spring to late Summer mostly on Brassica spp., Sinapis spp., Barbarea spp. and Sisymbrium spp. (Brassicaceae).
