Flora of Tropical East Africa - Myrtaceae (2001)
This book is a comprehensive review of the genera of Myrtaceae, a flowering plant family of mostly trees and shrubs, found in tropical East Africa. It presents information on their character, occurrence, habitat, phenotypic variations and distribution of each of the species under these genera.
World Checklist of Myrtaceae
Myrtaceae is the ninth largest flowering plant family; it is economically important in the production of timber, gums, essential oils, fruits and spices, and contains many commonly cultivated ornamentals. The family is particularly rich in large genera, often found in some of the world's most threatened ecosystems, where their fruits comprise an important part of the diet of primates and birds. The similarity of Myrtaceae species is high, and its taxonomic and nomenclatural history is complex, resulting in notorious difficulties in basic identification, inventory compilation and floristic treatment. The World Checklist of Myrtaceae is a much needed work that lists all validly published names in the family, providing the source of their publication and indicating which names are currently accepted and which are synonyms. It will be respected as the standard nomenclatural reference for further research into this important family.
Flowering Plants. Eudicots
This volume, the tenth in the series, comprises modern treatments for the families and genera of the eudicot orders Sapindales and Cucurbitales. The circumscription of the orders, families and genera conforms to the most recent systematic studies. The family treatments include descriptions of the families and the genera, genera classification keys, discussions of relationships and data on their morphology, reproductive biology, distribution, ecology and economic importance. Sapindales and Cucurbitales, as understood in this volume, comprise 16 families with 637 genera and roughly 9,240 species. Sapindales include large tropical and southern temperate tree families such as the Anacardiaceae, ...
Botryosphaeriaceae on Native and Exotic Myrtaceae Trees in Southern and Eastern Africa
Preface Members of the Botryosphaeriaceae represent a diverse family of fungi with over 180 species. They have been reported from a wide range of hosts occurring as endophytes, saprophytes or pathogens. These fungi are commonly referred to as latent opportunistic pathogens as they cause disease when the host is under abiotic or biotic stress. Symptoms associated with infection include tip die-back, stem and branch cankers, fruit rots, leaf spots and in severe cases mortality of trees. However, they are best known as canker and die-back pathogens on woody plants including species such as Eucalyptus (Myrtaceae). This dissertation focusses on the Botryosphaeriaceae on native and introduced Myrt...
