    Extractions: Plants of the Mediterranean Region The African, Asian, and European nations that ring the Mediterranean Basin constitute a botanist's paradise. While there are quite a number of distinct plant communities here, most are adapted to arid or seasonally dry climates. From umbrella pines and cedars of Lebanon to orchids and olive trees, they do much to define the beauty of sundrenched landscape. And here the association of plants and humankind is an ancient one, for many Mediterranean plants have provided us with foodstuffs, medicines, and mythological symbolism for millennia.

    Extractions: Lycophyta Living Families Return to phylum directory Phylum including three living families. This is an ancient lineage with fossil members dating from the Devonian. Vegetative Characters : Plants with true leaves, roots and stems - link to an illustration - . Leaves are, without exception, microphylls and this is a defining feature of the group (hence, the alternate name for the phylum - the Microphyllophyta). Microphylls have only one vein and are not associated with a leaf gap. They are thought not to be homologous to macrophylls found in ferns and all the groups of seed plants. Roots are adventitious. Branching in both shoot and root occurs by the division of the apical meristem into two parts which can either be equal or with one subordinate and one superior branch. Living members are all herbaceous although Isoetes has secondary growth. Extinct members include tree-like plants which were a prominent part of the Carboniferous swamp-forests and are well represented in the fossil record. Reproductive Characters : Non-seed plants which are either homosporous with exosporic gametophytes or heterosporous with endosporic gametophytes.

    Contains more than 2,500 terms relating to botany, gardening, horticulture and landscape architecture. Fully searchable and it is regularly updated.  
    http://www.gardenweb.com/glossary/
    
    Extractions: T he GardenWeb Glossary of Botanical Terms currently contains 4400 terms relating to botany, gardening, horticulture and landscape architecture and is regularly updated. The form below allows you to search the glossary for one or more keywords. [see notes] Or Whole Words Notes: This is version: February 4, 2002. If you are looking up names of plants, check the Horti Plex plant database here at GardenWeb. Proper nouns are generally not included in the glossary. Searches are case insensitive. You can browse the glossary, but there are many pages. Multiple keywords can be searched so that each word must appear in each hit (boolean "and") or so that only one of the words must appear (boolean "or"). To increase the chances of matching keywords with multiple endings, search for "Word Roots." With this setting, epiphyt will match both epiphyte and epiphytic. You can also limit your search to just terms or just definition. Additional Passes: If there are no hits in the first search, common word endings (-ing, -es, -ed, -ly) are stripped from the keywords and a second pass is made. If there is still no match, all non-word characters are stripped. This glossary was compiled by the editors of GardenWeb from a variety of sources.

74. All About INIBAP
    INIBAP works to increase productivity of banana and plantain grown on smallholdings for domestic consumption and for local and export markets. The site includes 3 Musa databases, publication list, information on Musa agronomy, botany and uses.  
    http://www.inibap.fr/presentation/inibap_eng.htm
    
    Extractions: Homepage Mission and objectives Modus operandi Projects ... Access plan in Leuven The banana, (which encompass a wide range of dessert and cooking varieties, as well plantains), has its wild origins in Asia and the Pacific. From here, the crop has spread throughout the tropical world, carried by traders and other travellers to Africa, South and Central America and the Caribbean. Bananas are now of major global importance in terms of food and income security to millions of smallholder farmers throughout the developing countries of the tropics. In the mid-1980s a destructive fungal disease of banana (black Sigatoka) was seen to be spreading rapidly in Africa and Latin America. It was clear that this disease would have devastating consequences for the millions of smallholder farmers dependent on banana and plantain for their main staple food. It was clear that urgent action was required at the global level and as a result, the International Network for the Improvement of Banana and Plantain (INIBAP) was created. Because of the global nature of banana research, the distinct regional differences and the fragmented nature of ongoing activities, it was decided that the most appropriate strategy was to create a network rather than a research centre. INIBAP was thus created in 1985. To achieve its objectives, INIBAP favours the creation of partnerships and supports research carried out by its partners in both developing and industrialized countries. Many of the producing countries have limited research capacity, but participation in regional networks supported by INIBAP helps them to make the best use of available resources. INIBAP has established the world's largest

    Extractions: The Earth is host to more than 400,000 documented species of plant life. In turn, our planet depends upon these plants to nurture and sustain all living things. Plants play a critical role in the complex food web. Powered by light from the sun, carbon dioxide from the air, and nutrients from the soil, plants pass on this energy to the life forms that consume them. And for the human species, plants bring aesthetic pleasure, delighting the senses with their beauty and variety. Botany is one of the oldest branches of biology. It is concerned with the scientific study of plants and other similar organisms. Within the discipline there are many areas of study including Paleobotany (the study of plant history through fossils), Physiology (the study of plant cells and tissues), Pteridology (the study of ferns), and Plant Pathology (the study of diseases in plants). This area of the NBII brings together a wide range of botanical resources available on the Web. Information is added regularly, and users are encouraged to submit suggestions for additional content or links by clicking on the "Contact Us" button at left.

    Extractions: No scientific subject, perhaps, produced a larger, a more curious, or a more splendidly illustrated literature than the world of plants. Greek medical men and scientists, Roman encyclopedists, and medieval doctors compiled and recompiled herbals, generally taking special interest in those plants that were thought to be of medicinal valueas hundreds were. The Vatican Library is a great repository of this tradition, in which direct observation and inherited stereotypes, empirical evidence and wild fantasy, jostled for centuries. Galen "De simplicium medicamentorum temperamentis ac facultatibus" (excerpts), harmonized with Dioscorides, "De materia medica" (excerpts), and other works. In Greek, Byzantium, Tenth century, Illustrations added in Byzantine territory, fourteenth century This manuscript, a harmonization of excerpts from two of the most important writers on materia medica of antiquity, was assembled in Byzantium in the tenth century. Most of the substances named in the work are plants. Illustrations were added in the mid- fourteenth century to enhance the practical usefulness of the work. Although many of the illustrationslike the molluscs shown on this pageare strikingly naturalistic, most are copied from much earlier models. Vat. gr. 284 fols. 232 verso-233 recto nature01 NAN.17
