Lizeth Swart Thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Agriculture at the University of Stellenbosch Supervisor: Prof. P. W. Crous Decem ber 1999 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za DECLARATION 1, the undersigned, hereby declare that the work contained in this thesis is my own original work and has not previously in its entirety or in part been submitted at any university for a degree. SIGNATURE: DATE: Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za PATHOGENS ASSOCIATED WITH DISEASES OF PROTEA, LEUCOSPERMUM ANDLEUCADENDRONSPP. SUMMARY The manuscript consists of six chapters that represent research on different diseases and records of new diseases of the Proteaceae world-wide. The fungal descriptions presented in this thesis are not effectively published, and will thus be formally published elsewhere in scientific journals. Chapter one is a review that gives a detailed description of the major fungal pathogens of the genera Protea, Leucospermum and Leucadendron, as reported up to 1996. The pathogens are grouped according to the diseases they cause on roots, leaves, stems and flowers, as well as the canker causing fungi. In chapter two, several new fungi occurring on leaves of Pro tea, Leucospermum, Telopea and Brabejum collected from South Africa, Australia or New Zealand are described. The following fungi are described: Cladophialophora proteae, Coniolhyrium nitidae, Coniothyrium proteae, Coniolhyrium leucospermi,Harknessia leucospermi, Septoria prolearum and Mycosphaerella telopeae spp. nov. Furthermore, two Phylloslicla spp., telopeae and owaniana are also redecribed. The taxonomy of the Eisinoe spp.

  • Blushing Bride FAMILY NAME: Proteaceae Species and Cultivars Of
    Plant Profile Botanical Name: Serruria florida Common Name: Blushing Bride FAMILY NAME: Proteaceae Species and cultivars of special interest: Serruria florida hybrids and cvv. such as ‘Sugar ’n’ Spice’, ‘Pretty in Pink’, ‘Super Blush’, ‘Carmen’ Origin: South Africa Availability: May to October Foliage Characteristics: Stem length is 30- 60 cm. They have papery white bracts or floral leaves surrounding the flower. The sugar and spice variety has pink on the white bracts too. 5- 10 stems per bunch. Floral Characteristics: Blushing bride have feathery tufts of white to pinkish flowers. Sugar and spice variety has pink flowers. Special features and characteristics of special interest: It is thought that blushing bride got its name because of its traditional use in Africa as bridal bouquets. The species was near extinction due to being over exploited until conservation measures in the 1960s and 70s kicked in. Botanical name given in honour of James Serrurier, an 18th century professor of Botany at the Unisversity of Utrecht. Maintenance, Cultural requirements and Post Harvest Treatments: Blushing Bride is grown on large bushes in plantations across Australia. They are also grown in South Africa, Israel and the US. Handle blushing brides gently as flowers dry out quickly. They can have floral preservative. It is unknown whether it is Ethylene sensitive. When stored in cool storage keep at at 2- 4 degrees. Strip leaves from water level down. Pest and Diseases: The pedicels are vulnerable to Botrytis infection, which causes them to collapse. They do not suffer from leaf blackening like protea species do but the leaves may turn black if submerged in buckets of solution or if held for too long.

  • Version 2 Targeted Threatened Flora Search Proposed Demonstration Trail Mount Clarence Albany
    Unit 5A 209 Chester Pass Road Albany WA 6330 9842 1575 [email protected] ABN 48 138 824 272 Job Ref: COA011 7th December 2016 Sandra Maciejewski Reserves Officer City of Albany PO Box 484 Albany WA 6331 Updated Report – Version 2 Targeted Threatened Flora Search Proposed Demonstration Trail Mount Clarence Albany Dear Sandra, On the 26th October 2016 Botanists/Ecologist, Karlene Bain and Bianca Theyer (Bio Diverse Solutions) undertook a targeted linear threatened flora search of 840m for a proposed mountain bike alignment at Mount Clarence, City of Albany (refer to Attachment A for the survey area). This survey was required as there was potential for threatened flora to be present within the subject area and there is proposed clearing of native vegetation as part of the proposed bike trail. The scope of work included: Undertake Targeted Flora Survey across subject site through linear sampling (10m buffer) in vegetation types present and mapping of boundaries of vegetation; Undertake any identification of any flora species, including herbarium identification if required; GPS and map any populations of Threatened Species (if applicable); and Prepare brief report on findings as per appropriate government agency legislation and guidelines. It is noted this survey was undertaken during the spring flowering period. The threatened flora search of the linear bike trail found that the Mount Clarence reserve is a diverse habitat with four vegetation types mapped, being: 1. Granite outcrop and fringing Taxandria shrub land; 2. Tall Gastrolobium shrub land; 3. Open Jarrah/ Marri woodland; and 4. Coastal heath. In November 2016 an occurrence of Stylidium falcatum (P1) was found (5 plants) on laterite soils associated with a cleared alignment for a powerline, on the edge of the jarrah/ marri ecotype.

Content This Landscaping Policy incorporates the following: • Landscape Procedures and Assessment; • Minimum Design Requirements for Development • Minimum Design Requirements for Reconfiguring a Lot • Landscape Zones in the Douglas Shire • Plant Species Schedule Information to be Provided Detailed Landscape Plans prepared by a suitably qualified professional drawn to scale, are to be submitted to the Council for assessment prior to the issue of a Building Permit. However, in the case of developments which are Code assessable or Impact assessable, a Landscape Plan is to be submitted with the Development Assessment Application. The Landscape Plan is to address the requirements set out in the Landscaping Code and to include: • the location, size, and species of existing vegetation; • vegetation to be retained and necessary protective measures; • any vegetation proposed to be removed; • existing and proposed surface levels; August, 2006 Page 48 • location of hard and soft landscaped areas; • the indicative location, number, size and species of plants; and • a Statement of Intent outlining the intent of each element of the Plan.

  • CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION the Proteaceae Benth. & Hook. F. Is One
    CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION The Proteaceae Benth. & Hook. f. is one of the most prominent flowering plants in the southern hemisphere. It is an ancient family made up of two subfamilies (the Proteoideae and Grevilleoideae), which existed before Gondwana began to break up some 140 million years ago. There are about 1,400 species, in more than 60 genera. Leucospermum (Lsp.), Leucadendron (Lcd.), Banksia and Protea are the genera that are widely used in floriculture. The name Protea, given by Linnaeus in 1753, referred to the Greek mythical god, Proteus, who could change his shape at will. It is an apt name due to the diversity of this genus (Rebelo, 1995). The worldwide development of Protea has established them as a horticultural crop, with a world sale of approximately 8 million flowering stems per year (Coetzee & Littlejohn, 2001). The Proteaceae industry in Zimbabwe was founded by a few flower producers in the Eastern Highlands, who began growing proteas in the early 1970’s (Archer, 2000). As the industry grew, production areas spread to include Centenary, Chimanimani, Karoi, Makonde, Mvurwi, Norton and Ruwa. In 2001 there was 290 Ha of Proteaceae being grown (Percival, 2002). By 2003, this area had increased to an excess of 350 Ha. There are over 200 growers with plantations ranging from a couple of hundred plants, to 70 hectares in size (Percival, 2004). Between 1997 and 2001 the Proteaceae population in Zimbabwe had doubled to 1,36 million protea plants; of which 42 % was comprised of Leucadendron, 39 % Leucospermum, 14 % Protea and 5 % of other Proteaceae genus, such as Banksia and Grevillea (Percival, 2002).
