  • Biological Control of Two Ageratina Species (Asteraceae: Eupatorieae) in South Africa
    Biological control of two Ageratina species (Asteraceae: Eupatorieae) in South Africa F. Heystek1*, A.R. Wood2, S. Neser1 & Y. Kistensamy1 1Agricultural Research Council-Plant Protection Research Institute, Private Bag X134, Queenswood, 0121 South Africa 2Agricultural Research Council-Plant Protection Research Institute, Private Bag X5017, Stellenbosch, 7599 South Africa Ageratina adenophora (Spreng.) R.M.King & H.Rob. and Ageratina riparia (Regel) R.M.King & H.Rob. (Asteraceae: Eupatorieae), originally from Mexico, are invasive in many countries. These plants produce thousands of wind- and water-dispersed seeds which enable them to spread rapidly and invade stream banks and moist habitats in areas with high rainfall. Two biological control agents, a shoot-galling fly, Procecidochares utilis Stone (Diptera: Tephri- tidae), and a leaf-spot fungus, Passalora ageratinae Crous & A.R. Wood (Mycosphaerellales: Mycosphaerellaceae), were introduced against A. adenophora in South Africa in 1984 and 1987, respectively. Both established but their impact is considered insufficient. Exploratory trips to Mexico between 2007 and 2009 to search for additional agents on A. adenophora produced a gregarious leaf-feeding moth, Lophoceramica sp. (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), a stem-boring moth, probably Eugnosta medioxima (Razowski) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), a leaf-mining beetle, Pentispa fairmairei (Chapuis) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Cassidinae), and a leaf-rust, Baeodromus eupatorii (Arthur) Arthur (Pucciniales: Pucciniosiraceae) all of which have been subjected to preliminary investigations. Following its success in Hawaii, the white smut fungus, Entyloma ageratinae R.W. Barreto & H.C. Evans (Entylomatales: Entylomataceae), was introduced in 1989 to South Africa against A. riparia. Its impact has not been evaluated since its establishment in 1990 in South Africa. By 2009, however, A.

  • Morphological and Anatomical Study of Bidens Pilosa Var.Pdf (440.3
    1 Morphological and Anatomical Study of Bidens pilosa var. minor (Blume.) Sher. From Tribe Heliantheae Dr Ngu Wah Win1 & Min Htay Wai Linn2 Abstract In this research, morphology and anatomy of Bidens pilosa var. minor (Blume) Sher. of tribe Heliantheae belonging to the family Asteraceae were studied, photomicrographed and described. The plant is annual erect herb. Leaves are trifoliolate compound and the florets of rays and disc in a head are bisexual and monoecious heads are also found. In anatomical characters, although endodermis are inconspicuous only in roots, it is conspicuous in stem and root. The stomata types are anomocytic and vascular bundles are bicollateral, open and covered by one-layer of bundle sheath. The resulting characters are valuable for the identification of study species for further researchers. Key words – Asteraceae, endodermis, vascular bundles, bicollateral Introduction Asteraceae also called Sunflower family is one of the most important economic family and the second largest of flowering plant families. It consists of several tribes. Its flowers have two types of florets. Disc florets are in the center of head and ray florets in the outer. Many plants of Asteraceae family are economically important as weed, ornamentals, medicinal, green vegetables and poisonus plants. Commercially the flowers of this Asteraceae family are very famous of their colourful florets and beautiful petals. Several plants of this family are commonly cultivated for ornamental purpose in the gardens plots and field. The studied species of this Asteraceae family are native of America, Africa, India and all warmer countries (Grierson 1980). The study species is widely distributed in Pyin Oo Lwin of Mandalay Region.

  • Ambrosia Artemisiifolia As a Potential Resource for Management of Golden
    Research Article Received: 28 June 2017 Revised: 22 October 2017 Accepted article published: 17 November 2017 Published online in Wiley Online Library: 16 January 2018 (wileyonlinelibrary.com) DOI 10.1002/ps.4792 Ambrosia artemisiifolia as a potential resource for management of golden apple snails, Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck) Wenbing Ding,a,b Rui Huang,a,c Zhongshi Zhou,d Hualiang Hea and Youzhi Lia,b* Abstract BACKGROUND: Ambrosia artemisiifolia, an invasive weed in Europe and Asia, is highly toxic to the golden apple snail (GAS; Pomacea canaliculata) in laboratory tests. However, little is known about the chemical components of A. artemisiifolia associated with the molluscicidal activity or about its potential application for GAS control in rice fields. This study evaluated the molluscicidal activities of powders, methanol extracts, and individual compounds from A. artemisiifolia against GAS in rice fields and under laboratory conditions. RESULTS: Ambrosia artemisiifolia powders did not negatively affect the growth and development of rice but they reduced damage to rice caused by GAS. Extracts had moderate acute toxicity but potent chronic toxicity. The 24-h 50% lethal –1 concentration (LC50) of the extracts against GAS was 194.0 mg L , while the weights, lengths and widths of GAS were significantly affected by exposure to a sublethal concentration (100 mg/mL). Psilostachyin, psilostachyin B, and axillaxin were identified as the most active molluscicide components in the aerial parts of A. artemisiifolia,andthe24-hLC50 values of these purified compounds were 15.9, 27.0, and 97.0 mg/L, respectively. CONCLUSION: The results indicate that chemical compounds produced by A. artemisiifolia may be useful for population management of GAS in rice fields.

    No Photo Available Plants Ha‘iwale Cyrtandra polyantha SPECIES STATUS: Federally Listed as Endangered Genetic Safety Net Species IUCN Red List Ranking ‐ CR B1ab(iii); C2a(i) Hawai‘i Natural Heritage Ranking ‐ Critically Imperiled (G1) Endemism – O‘ahu Critical Habitat ‐ Designated SPECIES INFORMATION: Cyrtandra polyantha, a member of the African violet family, is an unbranched or few‐branched shrub 3 to 10 ft (1 to 3 m) in height. Its leathery, elliptic, unequal leaves are 2 to 6.3 in (5 to 16 cm) long and 0.7 to 2 in (1.8 to 5.2 cm) wide and attached oppositely along the stems. The upper surface of the leaf is conspicuously wrinkled and usually hairless, with the lower surface moderately to densely covered with pale brown hairs. Seven to 12 flowers are grouped in branched clusters in the leaf axils. The white petals, fused to form a cylindrical tube about 0.5 in (12 mm) long, emerge from a radically symmetrical calyx, 0.2 in (5 mm) long, that is cleft from one‐half to two‐thirds its length. Each calyx lobe, narrowly triangular in shape, is sparsely hairy on the outside and hairless within. The fruits are white oval berries about 0.6 in (1.8 cm) long that contain many seeds about 0.02 in (0.5 mm) long. Cyrtandra polyantha is distinguished from other species in the genus by the texture and hairiness of the leaf surfaces and the length, shape, and degree of cleft of the calyx. This species differs from C. crenota by the lack of short‐stalked glands and by its leathery leaves, opposite leaf arrangement, and radially symmetrical calyx.
