Seeds and fruits M. longifolium M. longifolium var. pendula - the leaves of Monoon longifolium, a false ashoka, also commonly known for its synonym Polyalthia longifolia, is an Asian small tree species in the Annonaceae family. It is native to southern India and Sri Lanka, but has been widely represented elsewhere in tropical Asia and Africa. It is known that this evergreen tree grows more than 10 meters high and is usually planted because of its effectiveness in alleviating noise pollution. It demonstrates symmetrical pyramidal growth with willful weeping hanging branches and long leaves of lancet with wavy fields. The longifolium monoon is sometimes incorrectly identified as the Ashoka tree (Saraca indica) because of the close similarity of both trees. It may seem that there are no branches, but in fact M. longifolium is allowed to grow naturally (without trimming branches out for decorative reasons) grows into a normal large tree giving a lot of shade. Common common names include False Ashoka, Buddha Tree, Indian Mast Tree, and Indian Spruce. Its names in other languages include Ashoka in Sanskrit, Unboy (উনৈব) or Debadar (দৱদাৰু) in Assameza, Debdaru in Bengali and Hindi, Asopalaw (Gujarati), Glodogan Tiang (Indonesian), Ashok in Marati and Nettylinkam ெநக in Tamil and AraNaram: അരണമരം False ashoka was cultivated and gained popularity in British India for nostalgic reasons, because it resembled Mediterranean cypress, as well as to be used for the business of ship masts. It does not require pruning to maintain its tall, straight, main trunk with short, drooping branches. Distribution Found native to India and Sri Lanka, Nigeria. It is presented in gardens in many tropical countries around the world. For example, it is widely used in parts of Jakarta in Indonesia and the Caribbean islands of Trinidad and Tobago. The leaves are fresh brown leaves and soft and tender to the touch as the leaves get older the color becomes light green and finally dark green. The leaves are shaped like spears and have wavy edges. The leaves of the larvae are a food plant of tailed soy and kite swallow butterflies. Flowering close-up flowers in Hyderabad, India. In spring, the tree is covered with delicate star-green flowers. Flowers last for a short period, usually two to three weeks, not noticeable because of their color. Fruits carry in clusters 10-20, originally green, but purple or black when ripe. They love birds such as Asian koel Eudynamys scolopaceus and bats including flying foxes. Uses leaves used for decorative decoration during festivals. The tree is the main attraction in gardens across India. The tree can be cut into different shapes and maintained in the required size. In the past, flexible, straight and light trunks were used in the manufacture of sail ship masts. This is why the tree is also known as the mast tree. Today, wood is mainly used to produce small articles such as pencils, boxes, matches, etc. the composition of the seeds was also reported. B.Xue and R.M.K.

There are two varieties in cultivation. Brighter, var. The pendula, has a straight thin trunk and short branches that fall down, resulting in a narrow colonnary shape not normally seen in tropical trees. Less common variety, var. angustifolia, has branches that are more widespread, forming a pyramid crown. The bark is gray and smooth. The leaves are in the shape of a spear with wavy fields and are either bronze, lime green or dark green, depending on their age. They remain on the tree at all times of the year and in a dense arrangement that almost completely masks the trunk in lush greenery, from the bottom to the top of the tree. During a short period of spring, masses of pale yellow-green star-shaped flowers bloom among the leaves. They are followed by green coffee and berry fruits with one seed, ripening to dark purple or almost black from summer to autumn. Fruits at various stages of maturationI is a narrow-format crying variety, var. pendula, widely cultivated as a street tree in India, Sri Lanka and Southeast Asia for its compact shape and lush green foliage. In close space it forms a high hedge useful for screening privacy, shade or how to wind. The small-diameter trunk produces medium-weight yellowish-gray-white wood, averaging about 590 kilograms per cubic meter (37 pounds per cubic foot), but with low natural resistance to rot and decay. It is reported that it is only suitable for making light articles such as matches and pencils, although it is also made into musical drums in some parts of its native range. Trees planted to create a privacy screen (Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam)The common interest of the botanical name Polyaltia comes from the Greek word poly, which means many, and althia (derived from Alteo), which means treatment. However, there does not appear to be widespread use of the plant for medicinal purposes.

Email: [email protected]; [email protected]. Abstract: The genus Saraca L. (Leguminosae) is a universal panacea in herbal medicine. The present study investigates the comparative pollen morphology of four species of Saraca viz. S. asoca (Roxb.) de Wilde, S. declinata (Jack) Miq., S. indica L., and S. thaipingensis Cantley ex Prain growing in India to reveal differences of their pollen structures to aid taxonomic and evolutionary values. The detailed morphology and surface structure of pollen grains were studied and described using light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The pollen grains of Saraca showed isopolar, para-syncolporate, tricolporate, with radially symmetric, prolate and prolate-spheroidal structure. The surface of pollen of S. indica is rugulate with large lirae but in S. declinata, the surface is micro-rugulate to vermiculate with relatively thin lirae and that of S. thaipingensis is indistinct as the psilate surface with a frequent protuberance and fewer perforations were observed along with the gemmae like structure. Exine ornamentation helped to separate S. indica and S. asoca. Exine thickness varies from 3-4 μm. Presence of protuberance and exine thickness varies among individuals of the species spread over different locations.

    Acta Botanica Brasilica doi: 10.1590/0102-33062020abb0051 Toward a phylogenetic reclassification of the subfamily Ambavioideae (Annonaceae): establishment of a new subfamily and a new tribe Tanawat Chaowasku1 Received: February 14, 2020 Accepted: June 12, 2020 . ABSTRACT A molecular phylogeny of the subfamily Ambavioideae (Annonaceae) was reconstructed using up to eight plastid DNA regions (matK, ndhF, and rbcL exons; trnL intron; atpB-rbcL, psbA-trnH, trnL-trnF, and trnS-trnG intergenic spacers). The results indicate that the subfamily is not monophyletic, with the monotypic genus Meiocarpidium resolved as the second diverging lineage of Annonaceae after Anaxagorea (the only genus of Anaxagoreoideae) and as the sister group of a large clade consisting of the rest of Annonaceae. Consequently, a new subfamily, Meiocarpidioideae, is established to accommodate the enigmatic African genus Meiocarpidium. In addition, the subfamily Ambavioideae is redefined to contain two major clades formally recognized as two tribes. The tribe Tetramerantheae consisting of only Tetrameranthus is enlarged to include Ambavia, Cleistopholis, and Mezzettia; and Canangeae, a new tribe comprising Cananga, Cyathocalyx, Drepananthus, and Lettowianthus, are erected. The two tribes are principally distinguishable from each other by differences in monoploid chromosome number, branching architecture, and average pollen size (monads). New relationships were retrieved within Tetramerantheae, with Mezzettia as the sister group of a clade containing Ambavia and Cleistopholis. Keywords: Annonaceae, Ambavioideae, Meiocarpidium, molecular phylogeny, systematics, taxonomy et al. 2019). Every subfamily received unequivocally Introduction and consistently strong molecular support except the subfamily Ambavioideae, which is composed of nine Annonaceae, a pantropical family of flowering plants genera: Ambavia, Cananga, Cleistopholis, Cyathocalyx, prominent in lowland rainforests, consist of 110 genera Drepananthus, Lettowianthus, Meiocarpidium, Mezzettia, (Guo et al.

  • In Vitro Shoot Regeneration from Embryonic Axis of a Multipurpose Vulnerable Leguminous Tree, Saraca Indica L
    ® Tree and Forestry Science and Biotechnology ©2011 Global Science Books In Vitro Shoot Regeneration from Embryonic Axis of a Multipurpose Vulnerable Leguminous Tree, Saraca indica L. Fatima Shirin* • Nitish Parihar • P. K. Rana • S. A. Ansari Genetics and Plant Propagation Division, Tropical Forest Research Institute, PO RFRC, Mandla Road, Jabalpur, 482 021, India Corresponding author : * [email protected] ABSTRACT Saraca indica L. syn. Saraca asoca (Roxb.) De Wilde (Caesalpinaceae) is a commercially important evergreen medicinal tree. The annual demand for its bark is 10,724 tonnes and is growing at 15% per annum in India. Commercial exploitation for its bark has led to it becoming vulnerable, resulting in poor regeneration in its natural habitat. Tissue culture offers a viable alternative for production of a large number of plantlets within a short period of time. The present paper describes the formation of shoots through embryonic axis under the influence of two cytokinins, viz., 6-benzyladenine (BA) and zeatin (Zn). Embryonic axes were excised from one-month old immature seeds and a 1-2 mm cut was introduced at the radicle end. The embryonic axis was inoculated onto B5 medium supplemented with BA (0 and 2.5 μM) and Zn (0, 5, 10 and 20 μM) to study the effect on direct or indirect organogenesis. BA had a significant effect on the number of shoots formed and callus formation (%). After one month B5 medium supplemented with 2.5 μM BA regenerated both shoots and callus from embryonic axes. The dose of Zn and its interaction with BA did not significantly affect callus formation, shoot formation or the number of shoots.
