Patterns and drivers of heat production in the plant genus Amorphophallus

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 115, Issue 4, Page 874-894, August 2023., 2023
SUMMARY Thermogenesis – the ability to generate metabolic heat – is much more common in animals than in plants, but it has been documented in several plant families, most prominently the Araceae. Metabolic heat is produced in floral organs during the flowering time (anthesis), with the hypothesised primary functions being to increase scent ...

Phylogenomic study of Amorphophallus (Alismatales; Araceae): When plastid DNA gene sequences help to resolve the backbone subgeneric delineation

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 64-79, January 2023., 2023
A phylogenomic study of Amorphophallus from plastid DNA revealed a new scenario and timeline for the evolution of the main clades, consistent with their morphological characteristics, past climate dynamics, and long‐distance dispersal events across the genus. Abstract Encompassing ca.

Climatic and biogeographical drivers of functional diversity in the flora of the Canary Islands

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 31, Issue 7, Page 1313-1331, July 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim Functional traits can help us to elucidate biogeographical and ecological processes driving assemblage structure. We analysed the functional diversity of plant species of different evolutionary origins across an island archipelago, along environmental gradients and across geological age, to assess functional aspects of island ...

A taxonomic revision of Pseudodracontium (Araceae-Aroideae-Thomsonieae)

open access: yes, 1995
The Indochinese genus Pseudodracontium N.E. Br. (Araceae) is revised. Seven species are recognized; a key is given. Four new species from Vietnam and Thailand are described: P. fallax, P. kuznetsovii, P. lanceolatum, and P. latifolium.

L-Asparaginase Synthesis by Erwinia aroideae [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Microbiology, 1972
Maximum L-asparaginase activity was obtained when 1.0% lactose and 1.5% yeast extract were supplied as carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively. Glucose inhibited the enzyme formation. The diauxie phenomenon was observed with Erwinia aroideae NRRL B-138 grown in a medium containing glucose ...

L-Asparaginase Production by Erwinia aroideae [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Microbiology, 1969
Maximum yields of 1,250 IU (international unit)/g (dry weight of cells) of L-asparaginase were obtained in 8 hr from Erwinia aroideae NRRL B-138. Partial purification and concentration of the extracted L-asparaginase yielded a preparation with an activity of 275 IU/ml.

Toxicity of Phenolic Compounds to Erwinia aroideae and Their Inhibitory Effect to the Activity of Macerating Enzymes Produced by the Organism [PDF]

open access: yes, 1970
The effect of eighteen phenolic compounds upon the multiplication of Erwinia aroideae as well as the activity of macerating enzymes produced by this organism was studied.

Growth and Yield of Taro (Colocasia esculenta (L) Schott.) as Affected by Planting Distance

open access: yesInternational Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Taro, Colocasia esculenta (L) Schott., is a staple food for many people in Africa. Despite the numerous importance of the crop, it still remains an underutilized crop in Ghana with little information on many aspects of the crop, especially agronomic practices. This experiment was conducted to identify the effect of planting distance on growth and yield

The phylogenetic position of Aglaodorum Schott (Araceae – Aroideae – Aglaonemateae) [PDF]

open access: yesTHAISZIA - JOURNAL OF BOTANY, 2020
Analysis of chloroplast DNA sequences (trnL intron and trnLtrnF intergenic spacer) of the helophytic colony-forming Aglaodorum griffithii (Schott) Schott and other representative species of Araceae supported its placement within Aglaonema Schott. It is therefore proposed that Aglaodorum Schott should be recognised as a generic synonym of Aglaonema.
