    New York Science Journal 2018;11(10) http://www.sciencepub.net/newyork Pollen Morphology of Some Phyllanthus Species in Nigeria Wahab, Olasumbo Monsurat1 and Ayodele, Abiodun Emmanuel2 1. Department of Crop Production Technology, Federal College of Forestry, Ibadan. Nigeria 2. Department of Botany, University of Ibadan, Ibadan. Nigeria [email protected] Abstract: Circumscription of the genus Phyllanthus has been a cause of much confusion and disagreement. The fact that many herbaceous Phyllanthus species grow in similar habitats and share common vernacular names in Nigeria give rise to misidentifications. Field and Herbarium observations of some Phyllanthus species show that there are similarities of highly conspicuous morphological features, making identification of the species difficult. The pollen grain morphology of 18 field specimens comprising 10 Phyllanthus species using light microscope was therefore analysed in the present study with the aim of providing additional information on their taxonomy. The pollen type of the species have 3 – colporate, finely reticulate pollen without much ornamentation. Pollens were prolate, subprolate in shape in all taxa except P. muellerianus which was oblate–spheroidal. The pollen grains ranged in size from small in P. amarus, P. muellerianus, P. maderaspatensis, P. pentandrus and P. reticulatus to medium in P. maderaspatensis, P. capillaris, P. niruroides, P. odontadenius and P. urinaria. The smallest pollen size was observed in P. muellerianus being 12.4m by 13.0m while the largest pollen size was observed in P. capillaris being 31.5m by 23.25m. The colpi length ranged from 12.2m in P. muellerianus to 26.75m in P. urinaria while the percentage polar over equatorial axis ranged from 95.4% in P.

It is very susceptible to frost and heat damage, but with proper care it will produce a bumper crop with very few plants. Squash come in two main types: summer squash and winter squash. While there s not much difference among the tastes and textures of summer squashes, winter squashes offer a wide array of flavours. Summer squash (Cucurbita pepo) produces prolifically from early summer until the first frost. This group includes both green and yellow zucchini, most yellow crookneck and straightneck squash, and scallop (or pattypan) squash. Most summer squash are ready to pick 60 to 70 days after planting, but some reach harvestable size in 50 days. You can use them raw for salads and dips or cook them in a wide variety of ways, including squash "french fries" and such classics as zucchini bread. Summer squash blossoms, picked just before they open, are delicious in soups and stews, or try them sautéed, stuffed, or dipped in batter and fried. (You ll want to use mostly male flowers for this purpose, though, and leave the female flowers to produce fruit.) Summer squash keep for only a week or so in the refrigerator, so you ll probably want to freeze most of the crop.

    Wood Anatomy of Flueggea Anatolica (Phyllanthaceae)

    IAWA Journal, Vol. 29 (3), 2008: 303–310 WOOD ANATOMY OF FLUEGGEA ANATOLICA (PHYLLANTHACEAE) Bedri Serdar1,*, W. John Hayden2 and Salih Terzioğlu1 SUMMARY Wood anatomy of Flueggea anatolica Gemici, a relictual endemic from southern Turkey, is described and compared with wood of its pre- sumed relatives in Phyllanthaceae (formerly Euphorbiaceae subfamily Phyllanthoideae). Wood of this critically endangered species may be characterized as semi-ring porous with mostly solitary vessels bearing simple perforations, alternate intervessel pits and helical thickenings; imperforate tracheary elements include helically thickened vascular tracheids and septate libriform fibers; axial parenchyma consists of a few scanty paratracheal cells; rays are heterocellular, 1 to 6 cells wide, with some perforated cells present. Anatomically, Flueggea anatolica possesses a syndrome of features common in Phyllanthaceae known in previous literature as Glochidion-type wood structure; as such, it is a good match for woods from other species of the genus Flueggea. Key words: Flueggea anatolica, Euphorbiaceae, Phyllanthaceae, wood anatomy, Turkey. INTRODUCTION The current concept of the genus Flueggea Willdenow stems from the work of Webster (1984) who succeeded in disentangling the genus from a welter of other Euphorbiaceae (sensu lato). Although previously recognized as distinct by a few botanists (Baillon 1858; Bentham 1880; Hooker 1887), most species of Flueggea had been confounded with the somewhat distantly related genus Securinega Commerson ex Jussieu in the

    Summer Squash

    SUMMER SQUASH Where did Squash come from? Squash originated in the Americas and it is one of the major and earliest plants domesticated in Mexico and North America, along with maize and beans. Remains of squash seeds, rind and stems were found in caves in Mexico and were dated to 8,000BC. The American colonists developed the word "squash" from several Native American terms meaning "something eaten raw." These American Indians shared many varieties of squash with the European settlers, who took the seeds back to their countries and developed them over many generations. "Zucchini" were cultivated and improved in the very late 1800s in Italy, near Milan. Italian immigrants then bought the new improved version of squash back to the US in the early 1920s. This explains the strange name: "Zucca" is the Italian word for squash and "zucchina" means “little squash”. In England, Ireland and France the same thing is called a Courgette, while in South Africa, they are called baby marrow. On a side note, in England many children have been tortured by being forced to eat Marrows, but although they look like overgrown Zucchini they are slightly different – completely tasteless, very soggy and often tough. In the United States, squash was domesticated in Missouri, Florida, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Tennessee and Maine. This wasn't the zucchini as we know it today, but a similar type of squash Cucurbita Pepo and its wild ancestor, the Ozark gourd, is still present in the area. Today, squash are grown all over the world, and are very popular in many Eastern European countries.

These natural and managed ecosystems are being invaded and transformed by invasive species. Chinese tallowtree, Triadica sebifera (L.) Small (Euphorbiaceae), is one of the most damaging invasive weeds in the southeastern USA, impacting wetlands, forests, and natural areas. A defoliating moth, Gadirtha fusca Pogue (Lepidoptera: Nolidae), was discovered feeding on Chinese tallowtree leaves in the weed’s native range and has been tested for its suitability as a biological control agent. Natural history studies of G. fusca indicated that the neonates have five instars and require 15.4 days to reach pupation. Complete development from egg hatch to adult emergence required 25.8 days. No differences were found between males and females in terms of life history and nutritional indices measured. Testing of the host range of G. fusca larvae was conducted with no-choice, dual-choice, and multigeneration tests and the results indicated that this species has a very narrow host range.

Heijkoop1, P.C. van Welzen1,2 Key words Abstract The genus Actephila (Phyllanthaceae) is distributed from India in the north-west to Thailand and via Malesia to the Melanesian Islands and Australia in the south-east. Eleven species are recognized of which three Actephila are newly described, A. discoidea with long leaf apices and a fleshy nectar discs, A. emarginata with an emarginate Asia leaf base, and A. stipularis with large stipules. Further, A. javanica is synonymized with A. excelsa; and a former Malesia synonym or separate variety, A. excelsa var. acuminata, is recognized as distinct species, but had to be synonymized Phyllanthaceae under A. subsessilis. Actephila puberula, not present in Malesia, but often synonymized with A. excelsa, is kept revision separate because of the hairy ovary and different base of the leaf blades. taxonomy Published on 31 January 2017 INTRODUCTION century Pax & Hoffmann (1922, 1931) included Actephila in the subfamily Pyllanthoideae subtribe Amanoinae. The placement Actephila Blume consists of (sub)shrubs to small trees.
