Five plant species (Apocynum hendersonii Hook.f. (Apocynaceae), Deyeuxia anthoxanthoides Munro ex Hook.f. (Gramineae), Hololachna shawiana Hook.f. (Tamaricaceae), Iphiona radiata Benth. (Compositae) and Saussurea ovata Benth. (Compositae)) were described from specimens collected by George Henderson on the political mission to Yarkand (now in Xinjiang Province of China) in 1870. The names, with accompanying descriptions and illustrations, appeared in Lahore to Yārkand by Henderson and A. O. Hume. An exact publication date of 1 April 1873 is established for this work of relevance to avian as well as plant taxonomy. The typification of the plant species names to specimens in the Kew herbarium is reviewed. Four new lectotypes are proposed.

Attention has become an issue of intense political, economic, and moral concern over recent years: from the commodification of attention by digital platforms to the alleged loss of the attentional capacities of screen-addicted children (and their parents). While attention has rarely been an explicit focus of anthropological inquiry, it has still played an important if mostly tacit part in many anthropological debates and subfields. Focusing on anthropological scholarship on digital worlds and ritual forms, we review resources for colleagues interested in this burgeoning topic of research and identify potential avenues for an incipient anthropology of attention, which studies how attentional technologies and techniques mold human minds and bodies in more or less intentional ways. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Anthropology, Volume 50 is October 2021. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.

Growing Conditions

Water gardening is increasing in popularity in ornamental landscapes across the country. Ornamental aquatic plants can be grown in small ponds and in containers on the patio or in the yard. Many water-tight containers of many sizes and shapes are available for displaying ornamental aquatic plants. Water gardens provide additional, attractive features to landscapes not available with terrestrial plants. An aquatic plant palette of considerable variety is available for water gardens in Florida (Table 1). The abundance of sunshine and warm temperatures provides ideal growing conditions for many aquatic plant species. This document is ENH988, one of a series of the Environmental Horticulture Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

Research in the Eden 100 agrotourism forest located in the area of Lumban Rang, Sionggang Utara Village, LumbanJulu District, Kab. Toba Samosir North Sumatra has been carried out for 3 months using "Survey or Exploration Method". The aim of this research is to find out data on plant species of family Rutaceae in the Eden Park area 100 and then make herbs and to produce learning devices in the form of dabbing as ingredients teach Biology courses in High Plant Taxonomy. The results showed that there were 9 types of plant family Rutaceae with the Genus Citrus as many as (6), Genus Zanthoxylum (1), Genus Triphasia (1), Genus Aegle (1), so the most dominant is the Genus Citrus. such as Lime (Citrus aurantifolia), Andaliman (Zanthoxylumachanthopodium), Orange Purut (Citrus hystrix DC), Tiger Orange (Citrus medica), Kingtit Orange (Triphasiatrifolia), Lemon Orange (Citrus lemon), Kasturi Orange (Citrus madurensis) , Sweet / Squeezed Oranges (Citrus sinensis), AegleMajamarmelos (L.) Corr. The Rutaceae family plant found in the Eden 100 agrotourism forest is still relatively small when compared with the total total genus Rutaceae 150 genera and 1500 species

Important Pest

The twobanded Japanese weevil, Pseudocneorhinus bifasciatus (Roelofs), first collected in the United States in 1914 near Philadelphia, was most likely introduced with infested nursery stock from Japan (Wheeler and Boyd 2005). With a host range of over 100 plant species, the twobanded Japanese weevil is recognized in the northeastern and midwestern United States as an important pest of landscape plantings (Wheeler and Boyd 2005). Although not a pest of major concern yet in the southeastern states, it is likely to extend its range due to movement of nursery stock. In July 2005, two specimens of the twobanded Japanese weevil were collected at Chipley, Florida, which is in Washington county (Thomas 2005).

Racial Cues

This article reviews the literature on the persistence of racial cues and appeals in American elections. I focus on three central themes: racial priming, the influence of the Obama presidential campaigns on racial cues, and racial appeals in the context of a diversifying United States. I identify linkages across these domains while also suggesting avenues for future research. I argue that in the context of a diversifying United States, scholars should develop more measures that capture attitudes that are specific to groups other than African Americans. The nation's growing racial and ethnic diversity is also an opportunity to develop and test more theories that explain the political behavior of racial and ethnic minorities beyond the traditional black–white divide. Finally, since much of the research on racial cues focuses on whites’ racial animus, I suggest that scholars spend more time exploring how racial cues influence the behavior of whites with positive racial attitudes. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Political Science, Volume 24 is May 2021. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.

Meiotic Entry

One of the major cell fate transitions in eukaryotes is entry into meiosis. While in single-celled yeast this decision is triggered by nutrient starvation, in multicellular eukaryotes, such as plants, it is under developmental control. In contrast to animals, plants have only a short germline and instruct cells to become meiocytes in reproductive organs late in development. This situation argues for a fundamentally different mechanism of how plants recruit meiocytes, and consistently, none of the regulators known to control meiotic entry in yeast and animals are present in plants. In recent years, several factors involved in meiotic entry have been identified, especially in the model plant Arabidopsis, and pieces of a regulatory network of germline control in plants are emerging. However, the corresponding studies also show that the mechanisms of meiotic entry control are diversified in flowering plants, calling for further analyses in different plant species. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Genetics, Volume 55 is November 2021. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.

Land and water managers who apply herbicides to control invasive plant species and other nuisance vegetation strive to minimize environmental impacts as a matter of policy and daily operations. It is, therefore, not surprising that concern has been expressed and many questions asked relative to recent publications by Relyea (2005a, 2005b, 2005c), which implicate use of glyphosate-containing herbicides in global decline of amphibians. The purpose of this article is to put these recent publications in perspective relative to aquatic and terrestrial natural area weed management and explain why land managers should continue to use glyphosate-containing products to protect managed habitats from weeds without concern for unreasonable adverse environmental impacts.

Most everyone is aware that flowers commonly produce nectar that is important in encouraging pollination as well as providing food for hummingbirds and insects. However, few people are aware of the extrafloral nectaries (EFN), nectar-producing glands physically apart from the flower (Fig. 1 and Fig. 2), that have been identified in more than 2000 plant species in more than 64 families. EFN glands may be located on leaf laminae (Fig. 3), petioles (Fig. 4), rachids , bracts, stipules, pedicels (Fig. 5), fruit, etc., and their size, shape and secretions vary with plant taxa. Ants often use EFN (Fig. 6 and Fig. 7) and many fascinating studies are available that report the interactions of ants with EFN and the plant's enemies, herbivores. This document is one of a series of the Department of Entomolgy and Nematology, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

Academic Recognition

<p><strong>Background</strong>: Scientific discoveries have an impact in the cultural notion of the universe and the nature on earth. A discovery has to be published through a careful peer revision, and then recognized by diverse ways. A kind of recognition is the formal citation of the discovery paper on the scientific journals by the different scientists as a reference to discuss the new findings. In a scientific way, plant species discoveries are analogous to the ones on other scientific areas. However, plant discoveries are not cited formally in the plant taxonomy journals. As a result, the papers and the authors are not considered in the bibliographic databases, the general impact indexes, and of course, they are poorly known by most of the academic community. Not surprisingly, plant species discoveries are unimportant for society and decision makers.</p><p><strong>Question</strong>: New plant species discoveries do not have the accurate academic recognition.</p><p><strong>Results</strong>: A scientific discovery recognition analysis was done, by comparing some scientific disciplines against plant taxonomy. A proposal for a formal citation of new plant species publications in botanical journals is presented, so discoveries can be first recognized by the academic community.</p><strong>Conclusion</strong>: New plant species discoveries must have an academic and social recognition, comparable to those of similar scientific disciplines.
