Download or read book Quiver Trees Phantom Orchids Rock Splitters written by Jesse Vernon Trail and published by ECW/ORIM. This book was released on 2015-06-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Showcases the many weird and wonderful ways plants adapt to survive and spread their progeny . . . A great book for anyone interested in botany” (The Gardener). Whether it’s an arctic heather that can create subtropical conditions within its leaves, or a dwarf mistletoe that can shoot its seeds up to fifty feet away, plants demonstrate remarkable strategies in coping with and surviving their environments. Plants are often exposed to bitter cold, relentless winds, intense heat, drought, fire, pollution, and many other adverse growing conditions. Yet they are still able to survive and often even thrive. This book showcases these exceptional plants with absorbing information and stunning photos that will inspire a new respect for nature’s innovation and resilience. “From hummingbirds on the high slopes of the Andes to sugarbirds on the South African Cape, Vernon takes the reader on an awe-inducing journey to discover the secret life of pollinators and the plants that depend upon them. . . . You’ll delight in the surprising, unusual, and downright amazing strategies plants use to cope and copulate.” —Sierra
Download or read book Plant Indicator Guide for Northern British Columbia written by Leisbet J. Beaudry and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guidebook shows how the distribution of common forest plants changes due to variations in climate, terrain, site, & soil conditions across the northern British Columbia wet-belt & subalpine zones. The guide covers over 120 plant species or species groups that occur in the northern montane spruce and the northern interior cedar-hemlock biogeoclimatic zones. For each species, an outline of species ecological information is presented along with a graph showing the predominant moisture & nutrient regimes where it will most likely occur. The information is arranged by category of plant: trees; shrubs; herbs, ferns, & dwarf shrubs; grasses & sedges; and mosses, liverworts, & lichens. The appendix includes identification keys to the common shrubs & herbs of the Prince George Forest Region and an index of common & scientific names.

Download or read book Response of Vegetation to Burning in a Subalpine Forest Cutblock in Central British Columbia written by Evelyn Hope Hamilton and published by British Columbia, Forest Science Program. This book was released on 2003 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was undertaken to determine the response of individual vegetation species in the wet cold variant of the Engelmann spruce-subalpine fir biogeoclimatic zone of interior British Columbia after the trees were harvested and the site burned. Prescribed burning was carried out in the spring & fall to attempt to provide different fire severities. Changes in vegetation composition & structure after burning, tolerance of individual species to burning, mode of species establishment after burning, and changes in vegetation cover over time were monitored. Changes in height over time were also monitored for some shrub species. The study plots were monitored for 11 years after site preparation treatment. Results related to species response & diversity are presented & compared between burned and unburned plots.
Download or read book Flowering Plants Monocotyledons written by Klaus Kubitzki and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1998-08-27 with total page 316 pages. 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 mono cots, 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 botanist I had never seriously been interested in mono cots.
Download or read book Early Events in Monocot Evolution written by Paul Wilkin and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-05-30 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracing the evolution of one of the most ancient major branches of flowering plants, this is a wide-ranging survey of state-of-the-art research on the early clades of the monocot phylogenetic tree. It explores a series of broad but linked themes, providing for the first time a detailed and coherent view of the taxa of the early monocot lineages, how they diversified and their importance in monocots as a whole. Featuring contributions from leaders in the field, the chapters trace the evolution of the monocots from largely aquatic ancestors. Topics covered include the rapidly advancing field of monocot fossils, aquatic adaptations in pollen and anther structure and pollination strategies and floral developmental morphology. The book also presents a new plastid sequence analysis of early monocots and a review of monocot phylogeny as a whole, placing in an evolutionary context a plant group of major ecological, economic and horticultural importance.

Book excerpt: "Packer and Gould have provided an invaluable service for anyone interested in western North American botany by creating a simple, user-friendly and portable key to the Alberta species found in the 30-volume set of Flora of North America. Designed to be carried into the field for handy reference and use, this work incorporates the new names and taxonomical understandings that have accumulated over the years. Part 1 of what will be a three-volume set contains the up-to-date classification of the ferns, fern allies, gymnosperms, and monocots found in Alberta according to the latest taxonomic findings."--
Download or read book Filicineae Gymnospermae and Other Monocots Excluding Cyperaceae written by Robert H. Mohlenbrock and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 2006-03-24 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second in a series of four illustrated guides to identifying aquatic and standing water plants in the central Midwest, this convenient reference volume includes descriptions, nomenclature, ecological information, and identification keys to plants in all of the monocot families except sedges—which are covered in the first volume in the series—that are found in Kentucky (except for the Cumberland region), Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska. Monocots covered in this volume include ferns, conifers, grasses, rushes, orchids, duckweeds, irises, sweet flags, arrowheads, aroids, flowering rushes, pipeworts, frog-bits, arrowgrasses, naiads, pickerelweeds, pondweeds, bur reeds, cattails, and yellow-eyed grasses. Robert H. Mohlenbrock includes three types of plants: submergents, those that spend their entire lives with their vegetative parts either completely submerged or at least floating on the water’s surface; emergents, which are typically rooted underwater with their vegetative parts standing out of water; and a third category of plants that live most of their lives out of water, but which may live in water at least three months a year. With taxa arranged alphabetically, the volume is well organized and easy to use. In addition, basic synonymy, description, distribution, comments, and line drawings show the habits and distinguishing features for each plant. Habitat and nomenclatural notes are also listed, as are the official wetland designations given by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Filicineae, Gymnospermae, and Other Monocots, Excluding Cyperaceae is a useful standard reference for state and federal employees who deal with both aquatic and wetland plants and environmental conservation and mitigation issues. It is furthermore an essential guide for students and instructors in college and university courses focusing on the identification of aquatic and wetland plants.
