Download or read book Aquatic Dicotyledons of North America written by Donald H. Les and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-09-01 with total page 3174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aquatic Dicotyledons of North America: Ecology, Life History, and Systematics brings together a wealth of information on the natural history, ecology, and systematics of North American aquatic plants. Most books on aquatic plants have a taxonomic focus and are intended primarily for identification. Instead, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the biology of major aquatic species by compiling information from numerous sources that lie scattered among the primary literature, herbarium databases, and other reference materials. Included dicotyledon species are those having an obligate (OBL) wetland status, a designation used in the USACE National Wetland Plant List. Recent phylogenetic analyses are incorporated and rationale is provided for interpreting this information with respect to species relationships. This diverse assemblage of information will be useful to a wide range of interests including academic researchers, wildlife managers, students, and virtually anyone interested in the natural history of aquatic and wetland plants. Although focusing specifically on North America, the cosmopolitan distribution of many aquatic plants should make this an attractive text to people working virtually anywhere outside of the region as well. This book is an essential resource for assisting with wetland delineation.

Download or read book Fungal Communities Associated with Camassia Populations Growing in Freshwater Wetland Habitats in the Pacific Northwest written by Gretchen Marie Freed and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Camassia (camas) populations are a distinctive component of native plant communities in wetland prairie ecosystems of the Pacific Northwest (PNW). Camas bulbs and seeds produced by native plant nurseries provide planting material for restoring prairie wetlands. Camas bulbs do not store well after removal from the ground, and camas seeds sown in restoration sites often fail to survive long enough to reproduce. Fungi are important for plant health, but fungal community composition and diversity associated with camas have not been explored. Samples were taken from camas populations in wetland habitats of garden, meadow, savanna, serpentine, swale and mitigation habitats in Washington, Idaho and Oregon. Fungal taxa and communities associated with camas root, tunic, leaf, seed, rhizosphere, and proximal soil samples were identified with culture-based and culture-independent DNA sequencing techniques (Illumina MiSeq). 734 fungal isolates were cultured from bulb, seed, root and leaf tissues with isolates of Penicillium (36%), Fusarium (12%), yeasts (12%), Trichoderma (8%) and Zygomycetes (8%) obtained in the highest frequencies. 2,984 operational taxonomic units affiliated with at least 200 fungal families were detected using culture-independent analyses. Habitats and plant/soil sample types were significantly associated with diversity among fungal communities. Edaphic characteristics (% clay and silt, C:N ratio and pH) collectively contributed to 30% and 9% of the variance among the habitats in the camas rhizosphere and root fungal communities, respectively. At least 50 fungal families were represented by 127 OTUs detected in camas seeds sampled. Seed-associated taxa contained genera of known plant pathogens such as Rhizoctonia, Fusarium, Botrytis and Leptosphaeria. Pathogenicity testing of isolates obtained from bulbs or seeds identified five bulb rot pathogens: Fusarium sporotrichioides, Aspergillus niger, Botrytis cf. paeoniae, Colletotrichum dematium and Trichoderma viride. Cold storage (5℗ʻC) reduced incidence of A. niger and symptom severity caused by C. dematium and T. viride, but less so with F. sporotrichioides and B. cf. paeoniae. This research established an understanding of the fungal community composition and diversity associated with camas plant tissues, seeds and associated soils that may have a detrimental impact on camas bulb production and seedling establishment in PNW wetland prairie restorations.
Download or read book Wetland Indicators written by Ralph W. Tiner and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-12-19 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understand the current concept of wetland and methods for identifying, describing, classifying, and delineating wetlands in the United States with Wetland Indicators - capturing the current state of science's role in wetland recognition and mapping. Environmental scientists and others involved with wetland regulations can strengthen their knowledge about wetlands, and the use of various indicators, to support their decisions on difficult wetland determinations. Professor Tiner primarily focuses on plants, soils, and other signs of wetland hydrology in the soil, or on the surface of wetlands in his discussion of Wetland Indicators. Practicing - and aspiring - wetland delineators alike will appreciate Wetland Indicators' critical insight into the development and significance of hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils, and other factors. Features Color images throughout illustrate wetland indicators. Incorporates analysis and coverage of the latest Army Corps of Engineers delineation manual. Provides over 60 tables, including extensive tables of U.S. wetland plant communities and examples for determining hydrophytic vegetation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Wetland Habitats of North America is essential reading for everyone who studies, manages, or visits North American wetlands. It fills an important void in the wetland literature, providing accessible and succinct descriptions of all of the continent’s major wetland types.” Arnold van der Valk, Iowa State University “Batzer and Baldwin have compiled the most comprehensive compendium of North American wetland habitats and their ecology that is presently available—a must for wetland scientists and managers.” Irving A. Mendelssohn, Louisiana State University "If you want to gain a broad understanding of the ecology of North America’s diverse wetlands, Wetland Habitats of North America is the book for you. Darold Batzer and Andrew Baldwin have assembled an impressive group of regional wetland scientists who have produced a virtual encyclopedia to the continent’s wetlands. Reading the book is like a road trip across the Americas with guided tours of major wetland types by local experts. Your first stop will be to coastal wetlands with eight chapters covering tidal wetlands along the Atlantic, Gulf, and Pacific coasts. Then you’ll travel inland where you can visit any or all of 18 types ranging from bottomland swamps of the Southeast to pothole marshes of the Northern Prairies to montane wetlands of the Rockies to tropical swamps of Central America and desert springs wetlands. All in one book—I’m impressed! Every wetlander should add this book to her or his swampland library. Ralph Tiner, University of Massachusetts–Amherst
