Based on a morphology-based cladistic analysis, the family has been divided into three subfamilies: Hypericoideae, Clusioideae, and Kielmeyeroideae. Kielmeyeroideae are divided into two tribes: Calophylleae, a large, pantropical tribe (ca. 450 spp), and Endodesmieae, a small, tropical African group (comprising the two monotypic genera Endodesmia and Lebrunia). Subfamilial assignment of Endodesmieae has been uncertain. Based on fruit characters, Endodesmieae are similar to Calophylleae; however, vegetatively, they are similar to Clusioideae. A previous family-level study based on rbcL sequences confirmed the monophyly of the three traditional subfamilies except that Clusiella, traditionally a member of Clusioideae, was placed in Kielmeyeroideae. Internal support for relationships within Kielmeyeroidae was weak, leaving it unclear as to which genera Clusiella is most closely related. Species of Endodesmieae were not included in the rbcL study. The present study determined the generic relationships within Kielmeyeroideae based on phylogenetic analysis of rbcL, matK, and ITS sequence data and morphological characters. Parsimony analyses were conducted on each molecular and morphological data set separately and combined. Bayesian and maximum likelihood analyses were performed on separate and combined molecular data sets. Sampling included several species of most genera of Calophylleae, as well as Clusiella and the enigmatic Endodesmia. The rbcL and matK data sets support the sister-group relationship of Endodesmia to the remaining Kielmeyeroideae and the sister-group relationship of Mammea to the rest of Calophylleae. Within the core Calophylleae (all Calophylleae except Mammea), the strictly New World genera (Kielmeyera, Caraipa, Haploclathra, Clusiella, Mahurea, Neotatea, and Marila) likely form a clade, and the primarily Old World genera (Kayea, Poeciloneuron, Mesua, and Calophyllum) constitute a second clade. All morphological characters are mapped onto a total evidence tree in order to infer their evolutionary pattern. Character state reconstructions of several noteworthy morphological characters, such as the presence/absence of latex cavities and canals, leaf arrangement, presence/absence of anther glands, carpel number, fruit type, and seed form are discussed in more detail. Putative morphological synapomorphies for each genus were determined, and a key to the genera of Kielmeyeroideae is provided.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of Ecosystem Services and Global Ecology is to give an overview and report from the frontiers of research of this important and interesting multidisciplinary area. Ecosystem services as a concept plays a key role in solving global environmental and human ecological crises and associated other problems, especially today when the sixth major extinction event of the history of the biosphere is in progress, and humanity can easily become a victim of it. Human activity is rapidly transforming the surface of the Earth, its biosphere, atmosphere, soil, and water resources. Ecological processes happen over a long time scale, thus damage caused by human activity will be perceptible after decades or even centuries. We hope that our book will be interesting and useful for researchers, lecturers, students, and anyone interested in this field.

Book excerpt: St. John's wort (Hypericum perforatum) is one of the best-selling herbal medicines in the world. For that reason, research into all aspects of St. John's wort continues to intensify. Hypericum: The Genus Hypericum summarizes the current knowledge on a wide range of issues, such as botany, plant infections, cultivation, manufacturing, standardization, quality control, biochemistry, pharmacology and clinical application. This landmark book tackles issues not previously addressed, such as selection of the pharmacologically active compounds, application for severe depression, mechanisms of action, long-term effects and risks, marketing issues (dietary supplements or drugs), and comparison to synthetic drugs for the same indications. Containing many updated references, Hypericum will be of immense value to those involved in industry and academia alike, including researchers, producers, processors, importers and end users.

This book was released on 2021-09-27 with total page 1045 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Opuntia fruits, commonly known as cactus pears or prickly pears, have been suggested by the Food and Agriculture Organization to be a promising and strategic crop in regions suffering from lack of water. In Mexico, India, South Africa, and the Mediterranean, the Opuntia fruits have become popular due to their nutritive value and health-promoting benefits, including antioxidant, antiulcerogenic and antiatherogenic traits and protective effects against LDL oxidation. Additionally, readily absorbable sugars, high vitamin C and mineral content, and a pleasant flavour make Opuntia tailor-made for novel foods. Due to their ecological advantages, high functional value, and health-related traits, Opuntia fruits can be highly exploited in different food processing applications. For instance, Opuntia cactus fruits are used for the preparation of juices and marmalades; Opuntia cactus plants are used to feed animals in African and Latin American countries; Peruvian farmers cultivate Opuntia cactus for growing the cochineal (Dactylopius coccus) insect and producing the natural dye carmine; and the commercial production of food and non-food products from Opuntia has been established in Mexico, USA and several Mediterranean countries. Opuntia spp.: Chemistry, Bioactivity and Industrial Applications creates a multidisciplinary forum of discussion on Opuntia cactus with special emphasis on its horticulture, post-harvest, marketability, chemistry, functionality, health-promoting properties, technology and processing. The text includes detailed discussion of the impact of traditional and innovative processing on the recovery of high-added value compounds from Opuntia spp. by-products. Later chapters explore the potential applications of Opuntia spp. in food, cosmetics and pharmaceutical products.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The culmination of more than fifty years of research by the foremost living expert on plant classification, Diversity and Classification of Flowering Plants is an important contribution to the field of plant taxonomy. In the last decade, the system of classifying plants has been thoroughly revised. Instead of describing every individual family, Takhtajan includes descriptions in keys to families, which he calls "descriptive keys." The advantage of descriptive keys is that they give both the characteristic features of the families and their differences. The delimitation of families and orders drastically differs from the one accepted by the Englerian school and from the one accepted in Arthur Cronquist's system. Takhtajan favors the smaller, more natural families and orders, which are more coherent and better-defined, where characters are easily grasped, and which are more suitable for information retrieval and phylogenetic studies, including cladistic analysis (because it reduces polymorphic codings).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Rolf Dahlgren and I embarked on preparing this book series, Rolf took prime responsibility for monocotyledons, which had interested him for a long time. After finishing his comparative study and family classification of the monocots, he devoted much energy to the acquisition and editing of family treatments for the present series. After his untimely death, Peter Goldblatt, who had worked with him, continued to handle further incoming monocot manuscripts until, in the early 1990s, his other obligations no longer allowed him to continue. At that time, some 30 manuscripts in various states of perfection had accumulated, which seemed to form a solid basis for a speedy completion of the FGVP monocots; with the exception of the grasses and orchids which would appear in separate volumes. I felt a strong obligation to do everything to help in publishing the manuscripts that had been put into our hands. I finally decided to take charge of them personally, although during my life as a botainst I had never seriously been interested in monocots.
