... 300-1400 m (Fig. 3). 1976). Schumann, at the time of describing S. boliviana, was curator at the Botanical Museum in Berlin (Stafleu & Cowan 1985), and for this reason it is assumed that the original material was deposited in B and destroyed in the Second World War (Dr. R. Voyg, pers. ...

Starch is widely applied in various industrial sectors, including the food industry. Starch is used as a thickener, stabilizer, or emulsifier. However, arrowroot starch generally has weaknesses, such as unstable under heating and acidic conditions, which are generally applied to processing in the food industry. Modifications were applied to improve...

Raising environmental awareness had forced researchers to explore the potential and implementation of environmentally friendly materials as alternatives for conventional materials. Environmentally friendly materials are biodegradable, safer, non-toxic, lightweight, cheap, and readily available. Arrowroot starch has a high content of amylose (∼35.20...

In this study, we quantified the contribution of forest-derived carbon (FDC) to the soil organic C (SOC) pool along a natural succession from savanna (S) to mixed Marantaceae forest (MMF) in the Lopè National Park, Gabon. Four 1-ha plots, corresponding to different stages along the natural succession, were used to determine the SOC stock and soil C...

... La única contribución taxonómica completa de la familia fue realizada por Schumann (1902). Sin embargo, este trabajo, ha sido cuestionado por la dificultad que muestra en la delimitación genérica (Anderson, 1981a), y esta misma falta de límites claros se da también a nivel específico (Andersson, 1986;Zanotti et al., 2017). Este problema es secundado por la existencia de revisiones taxonómicas en tesis doctorales no publicadas, y de difícil acceso, (Yoshida-Arns, 2003;Uliana, 2005;Vieira, 2005;Saka, 2016). ...

A synopsis and taxonomic novelties of the family Marantaceae in Argentina, including a new record from Paraguay. This synopsis of the Argentine species of Marantaceae includes six genera and seven species: Ctenanthe muelleri, Goeppertia eichleri, Maranta sobolifera, Saranthe eichleri, Stromanthe boliviana, Thalia geniculata, and T. multiflora. Species Ctenanthe muelleri is cited for the first time for Argentina and Paraguay, and Saranthe eichleri as a new record for Argentina. Ctenanthe casupoides var. subtropicalis is here synonymyzed within Saranthe eichleri. Lectotypes are designated for Calathea eichleri, C. macrostachya, Saranthe eichleri, and Thalia geniculata. Treatment of each species includes synonyms, iconography, vernacular names, observations, ethnobotany, geographical distribution, and habitat, and examined material. A key to the species, some illustrations and field photographs are also provided

Comprising ca. 200 species, Saxifraga sect. Ciliatae is the most species‐rich section of Saxifraga s.str., whose center of diversity is in the Tibeto‐Himalayan region. The infra‐sectional classification of sect. Ciliatae is still in debate due to the high level of species richness, as well as remarkable variations of habitat, morphology, physiology and life cycles. Subdivisions of this section proposed in various taxonomic systems have not been adequately tested in previous phylogenetic studies, partly due to low taxonomic sampling density, but also to the use of few DNA markers. In order to achieve a more robust infra‐sectional classification of sect. Ciliatae, complete chloroplast genomes of 94 taxa from this section were analyzed, of which 93 were newly sequenced, assembled and annotated. The length of the 94 plastomes of sect. Ciliatae taxa range from 143,479 to 159,938 bp, encoding 75 to 79 unique protein‐coding genes (PCGs). Analyses of the 94 plastomes revealed high conservation in structural organization, gene arrangement, and gene content. Gene loss and changes of IR boundaries were detected but in extremely low frequency. The molecular phylogenetic tree from concatenated PCGs and complete chloroplast genome sequences exhibited high resolution and support values and confirms that sect. Ciliatae is monophyletic. Three well‐supported clades were revealed within the section that agree relatively well with the subsectional taxonomy of Gornall (1987), but some minor modifications should be made. Firstly, the monotypic subsection Cinerascentes should be abandoned and its constituent species, S. cinerascens, assigned to subsect. Gemmiparae. Secondly, subsections Rosulares and Serpyllifoliae should be merged and become subsect. Rosulares. Section Ciliatae thus comprises: subsect. Hirculoideae Engl. & Irmsch.; subsect. Rosulares Gornall; subsect. Gemmiparae Engl. & Irmsch.; subsect. Flagellares (C. B. Clarke) Engl. & Irmsch. and subsect. Hemisphaericae (Engl. & Irmsch.) Gornall. Subdivisions of sect. Ciliatae proposed in various taxonomic systems have not been adequately tested in previous phylogenetic studies, partly due to low taxonomic sampling density, but also to the use of few DNA markers. In this study, based on the 94 chloroplast genomes of sect. Ciliatae, we explored the phylogenetic relationships of this group.
