  • 2021 Catalogue
    QUALITY SPECIMEN TREES 2021 CATALOGUE 20TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION QUALITY SPECIMEN TREES Dear Valued Customer, April 2021 Welcome to our 2021 Leafland Tree Catalogue! It is 20 years this month since we started Leafland and what an interesting journey the past two decades have been. We started with no staff and now Leafland employs over 30 people. I was telling the staff the other day that when we started we had no internet, computers, or mobile phones. Even fax machines were new! I thought we were high-tech when we purchased a Polaroid camera which printed out the tree pictures straight away. We would then run up to the closest postbox and mail it FastPost so our customers would have them by lunch the next day! Now, we send videos of trees live to customers! We trust that you find Leafland's 2021 Tree Catalogue helpful, inspirational, and informative. Please keep it close at hand for easy future browsing. This is the first year that we haven't put prices in but will provide a priced stock list on our website for wholesale customers only. Get in touch with us to find out how this will work. The catalogue is also available online from our website so that you can direct your clients to the website to view pictures. The Leafland website has been updated with a search feature so you can sort our range of trees by category, growth rate, mature height, what each tree will tolerate, and much more. You can find this tree finder at leafland.co.nz/trees.

Structure analysis identified the optimal K value as seven, with samples identified as Sophora chathamica, Sophora fulvida, Sophora longicarinata, and Sophora prostrata retrieved as well-defined groups. The remaining samples formed less resolved groups referable to Sophora tetraptera and Sophora godleyi, with Sophora microphylla and Sophora molloyi forming the seventh group. Our data suggest that considerable admixture occurs and this is most likely the result of hybridisation or introgression. S. fulvida shows admixture with the sympatric S. chathamica, and the widespread S. microphylla exhibits admixture with the sympatric S. godleyi, S. molloyi, and S. tetraptera.

This article will be featuring fabulous fauna which will make you say “yay for yellow!”. Don’t forget to read a superb short story about marvelous micro sea animals found in the coral reefs of Niue. And, if you are looking for an educational drive and environmental themed activities remember, to check out our awesome activity page. We hope you enjoy our newsletter! Supported by: This is a newsletter made by primary students in the Predator Free Wellington Schools Programme. It is aimed at all students at schools taking part in the programme on and around the Miramar peninsula. Any questions or queries, please have a look on the www.pfw.org.nz website, or send an email to [email protected] STORY OF THE MONTH What has Room 3 been up to? Last term, our class made a cool and creative art piece for the predator Free Exhibition run by Karin. Each student participated in a group or by themselves to create a small model to represent what they wanted the Miramar Peninsula to look like in the future. From bird songs to compost bins, Room 3 worked hard to put it all together. Unfortunately we didn’t win the vote to have our exhibit put in Te Papa but it was great to see the members of our class trying their best to create a better Te Motu Kairangi for the future generations to come.

Heenan and Kate Ladley Cover: Ramarama (Lophomyrtus bullata, Myrtaceae) is expected to be severely affected by myrtle rust Austropuccinia( psidii) over the coming years. Because of this, it and all other indigenous myrtle species have been designated as Threatened in this assessment. Some of them, including ramarama, have been placed in the worst Threatened category of Nationally Critical. Photo: Jeremy Rolfe. New Zealand Threat Classification Series is a scientific monograph series presenting publications related to the New Zealand Threat Classification System (NZTCS). Most will be lists providing NZTCS status of members of a plant or animal group (e.g. algae, birds, spiders), each assessed once every 5 years. After each five-year cycle there will be a report analysing and summarising trends across all groups for that listing cycle. From time to time the manual that defines the categories, criteria and process for the NZTCS will be reviewed. Publications in this series are considered part of the formal international scientific literature. This report is available from the departmental website in pdf form. Titles are listed in our catalogue on the website, refer www.doc.govt.nz under Publications, then Series. © Copyright May 2018, New Zealand Department of Conservation ISSN 2324–1713 (web PDF) ISBN 978–1–98–85146147–1 (web PDF) This report was prepared for publication by the Publishing Team; editing and layout by Lynette Clelland.

However, the limited molecular markers range for this species hinders breeding and OPEN ACCESS genetic studies. A total of 20,324 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were identified Citation: Wang Y, Zhou T, Li D, Zhang X, Yu W, Cai from 118,197 assembled transcripts and 18 highly polymorphic SSR markers were used to J, et al. (2019) The genetic diversity and population explore the genetic diversity and population structure of S. alopecuroides from 23 different structure of Sophora alopecuroides (Faboideae) as geographical populations. A relatively low genetic diversity was found in S. alopecuroides determined by microsatellite markers developed from transcriptome.
