81. Botany 1220 Plant List

    Extractions: Go back to the 1220 Home Page Go to the Discussion Board Back to the syllabus Email Wayne Hughes The following table lists the plants and their families that I've brought into lecture this semester. There is not a great deal that I want you to worry about with these plants. I have specified what I want you to remember at the beginning of the lecture notes for each day when I brought in a plant(s). For the final I will expect you to have selected a family of plants (your choice), learn as much about it as you can, and describe and answer questions about it. You might find the following URLs to be interesting, amusing, or useful. A deer-resistant plantlist for those who are horticulturally minded. The Famine Food Web Page , for plants that are edible only if you're starving to death. , thousands of great pics, most taken by Jim Manhart who was a grad student in the Botany Dept here. Edible Plants , apparently a video exists. Invasive Plants , a list prepared by the US Forest Service of non-native plants that are more or less invasive. This is actually a pretty interesting page in general.

    Extractions: Each "thumbnail" image below is linked to a larger photograph. Cypripedium sp. (Cypripedioideae). One sepal of the outer perianth whorl is uppermost in the flower. The other two sepals are scarcely visible behind the two similarly colored petals of the inner whorl. The third petal is highly modified and forms a pink pouchlike labellum at the bottom of the flower. The column is colored similar to the petals and has a flap on each side where each of the two stamens are attached. Paphiopedilum sp. (Cypripedioideae). A broad, green and white striped sepal is at the top of the flower. Two red speckled petals extend left and right. The third petal is very highly modified and forms the large pouch-like labellum at the bottom of the flower. The column is green and white, extending from the center of the flower. One stamen is adnate to the lower surface of each of the greenish lobes of the column. A portion of one of the two smaller green sepals is visible just to the right of the column. Dendrobium sp. (Orchidoideae). In this orchid all of the perianth segments are of the same color and texture. One of the petals is modified into a labellum. Opposite the labellum is a three-angled pink and whitish column with a bright yellow stamen at the top. A pair of orange pollinia are partly exposed on the side facing the labellum (left photo).

    Extractions: Department of Botany Some industry related activities in the department Orchid improvement and micropropagation (Floriculture) Since a sustainable development of orchid based cut-flower/ pot-plant industry, requires constant selection and improvement of genotypes, researches are being conducted in the department (Orchid Lab.) to understand biology of these plants and develop appropriate procedures for their improvement and multiplication.Our efforts to a) shorten the life cycle, b) improve the quality of plants, c) maintain genetic purity of the progenies, d) produce commercially viable varieties, and e) develop cost effective mass production of test tube plant have been successful. The plant propagation techniques developed for nearly 50 floriculturally and therapeutically important orchid species and hybrids, in the Lab., are being widely used at different commercial/academic institutes throughout the world. Several economically viable hybrids have also been developed using biotechnological means. An efficient delivery and storage system for the propagules " artificial seeds" has also been perfected for nearly 15 orchids. These "seeds" are easy to handle and ensure economy of space and nutrients during storage and lab to land transfer, and transport of tissue culture raised plants. The laboratory also houses the head quarters of The Orchid Society of India (TOSI) and has been actively engaged in promoting orchid cultivations as a venture climbing vocation. Tree Propagation

    Extractions: (With Particular Reference to Orchids) Please note: The nature of this article means that since it's publication in September 1998 much of the information will have changed. For the latest information about the Centre for Economic Botany please visit the latest CEB web pages Economic botany has always been a key aspect of Kew's science and the Centre for Economic Botany (CEB) provides a focal point for current research into useful and potentially useful plants. The building which houses the CEB is named after Kew's most famous economic botanist, Sir Joseph Banks. This building also houses more than 73,500 botanical samples and artefacts, a collection originally conceived by the first official Director of Kew, Sir William J. Hooker, in 1847 to "render great service, not only to the scientific botanist, but to the merchant, the manufacturer, the physician, the chemist, the druggist, the dyer, the carpenter and the cabinet maker and artisans of every description, who might here find the raw materials employed in their several professions correctly named". Almost 150 years later the significance of this statement is more apparent than ever, given increasing awareness of the importance of plants as sources of useful raw materials, and the Economic Botany Collections form an important component of Kew's scientific collections. Orchids are represented in the Collections by over 150 items representing a very diverse range of taxa. Some of the interesting items include medicinal tea from Jumellea fragrans; a tobacco pipe from Grand Caymen Island, formed from the pseudobulb of Schomburgkia thomsoniana; and fibres from many species including Cyrtopodium andersonii and Diplocaulobium solomonense. Medicinal species are also well represented, including Orchis, Ophrys, and Gastrodia species.

    http://www.orchidsystems.com/orchidlk/history.html
    
    Extractions: The word orchis , from which the whole family received its name, was first used for this purpose by the Greek philospher Theophrastus (c. 372-c. 287 B.C.), a pupil of Aristotle. Theophrastus is sometimes referred to as the father of botany. It wasn't until 300 years later in the first century A.D. that orchids are mentioned again, this time by Dioscorides, a Greek physician in the Asia Minor, who collected information on medicinal plants while serving as surgeon in Nero's Roman army. Both Theophrastus and Dioscorides described the tubers of the Mediterranean orchis to resemble testicles, and therefore the hypothesis was formed that the plants influenced sexuality. That hypothesis as well as Dioscorides' writings on orchids prevailed for the next sixteen centuries. The Doctrine of Signatures, the popular theory in the sixteenth century, continued to promote the belief that orchids were synonymous with fertility and virility. This 'reputation' has continued to present day.
