Traditional leafy vegetables in Senegal: diversity and medicinal uses.
Six administrative regions of Senegal were investigated. Forty species of vegetable leaves which are traditionally consumed in Senegal have been inventoried. All species are members of twenty-one families the most numerous of which are Amaranthaceae Juss., Malvaceae Juss., Moraceae Link., the Papilionaceae Giseke and Tiliaceae Juss. The species are subdivided into three groups: cultivated leafy...
متن کاملMolecular evolution of mitochondrial introns in the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha
We here describe in detail the characterization and molecular evolution of group II introns in the mitochondrial genome of the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha. We find that 18 introns of the 25 group II introns can be assigned by their similarities to six clusters, indicating an intra-genomic propagation of one ancestral intron each into the respective clusters in the liverwort mitochondrial ge...
متن کاملMolecular phylogeny of the major hylobatid divisions.
We describe DNA sequences for the mitochondrial control region and phenylalanine-tRNA from the four extant gibbon subgenera. In contrast to earlier studies on gibbon phylogeny that used other parts of the mtDNA, the control region depicts the crested gibbons (Nomascus) as the most basal group of the Hylobatidae, followed by Symphalangus, with Bunopithecus and Hylobates as the last to diverge. O...
متن کاملSequential reduction of UV-B radiation in the field alters the pigmentation of an Antarctic leafy liverwort
UV-B radiation (280-315 nm) incident on the leafy liverwort Cephaloziella varians growing at Rothera Point on the Western Antarctic Peninsula was manipulated in late austral spring 1998 by screens consisting of a novel combination of plexiglass panes and polyester sheets. The screens transmitted c. 79%, 68%, 48%, 41% and 31% of daily UV-B radiation dose. Plants from under and outside the screen...
متن کاملMolecular evolution of FLORICAULA/LEAFY orthologs in the Andropogoneae (Poaceae).
Members of the grass family (Poaceae) exhibit a broad range of inflorescence structures and other morphologies, making the grasses an interesting model system for studying the evolution of development. Here we present an analysis of the molecular evolution of FLORICAULA/LEAFY-like genes, which are important developmental regulatory loci known to affect inflorescence development in a wide range ...
