A lectotype is designated for the name Dianthus virgineus. The relationships between D. virgineus, caryophyllus var. caryophyllus, and inodorus are analyzed. virgineus oldest available that applies to a species complex often referred as sylvestris or broad circumscription of cultivated ornamental caryophyllus. taxonomic consequences discussed, need further studies highlighted.

1. Dianthin 30 and dianthin 32, two proteins isolated from the leaves of Diathus caryophyllus (carnation), were purified to homogeneity by chromatography on CM-cellulose. 2. The mol.wt. of dianthin 30 is 29 500 and that of dianthin 32 is 31 700. Both dianthins are glycoproteins containing mannose. 3. Dianthins inhibit protein synthesis in a lysate of rabbit reticulocytes, with an ID50 (concentr...

in order to investigate the presence of carnation etched ring virus (cerv), samples of carnation (dianthus caryophyllus), sweet william (dianthus barbatus) and weed plants showing symptoms from greenhouses of khorasan razavi and northern khorasan provinces were collected in autumn 2009. polyclonal antiserum was used in order to detection of cerv by double- antibody sandwich-enzyme linked immuno...

Emissions from motor vehicle exhausts have been shown to have deleterious effects on the physiology of plant species. Our present study focuses on evaluating the tolerance and sensitivity of selected plant species viz. Dracaena deremensis (good absorber of VOCs) and Dianthus caryophyllus (susceptible to ethylene and formaldehyde (VOCs)) at selected sites which are differentiated on the basis of...

The cosmopolitan solitary deep-water scleractinian coral Desmophyllum dianthus (Esper, 1794) was selected as a representative model species of the polyphyletic Caryophylliidae family to (1) examine phylogenetic relationships with respect to the principal Scleractinia taxa, (2) check population structure, (3) test the widespread connectivity hypothesis and (4) assess the utility of different nuc...

Dianthus multiflorus from Gazipaşa (Antalya), south Anatolia (Turkey), is described as a new annual species with verrucose calyx. The morphological differences from the species within the same group with Dianthus multiflorus, which are Dianthus aydogdui, Dianthus cyri and Dianthus tripunctatus, are discussed. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) threat category and observat...

Three ethylene receptor genes, DC-ERS1, DC-ERS2 and DC-ETR1, were previously identified in carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.). Here, the presence of mRNAs for respective genes in flower tissues and their changes during flower senescence are investigated by Northern blot analysis. DC-ERS2 and DC-ETR1 mRNAs were present in considerable amounts in petals, ovaries and styles of the flower at the ...

Carnation vein mottle virus (CarVMV) was isolated from glasshouse-grown Dianthus caryophyllus L. originating from Split. The same virus was obtained also from D. caryophyl­ lus, D. carthusianorum L. and D. barbatus L. which were grown in the open in Zagreb and the surroundings. The virus was identified on the basis of host plants, non-persi­ stent mode of transmission by M yzus persicae Sulz. a...
