Amaryllids of Andhra Pradesh, India

Amaryllidaceae plants are collectively called as Amaryllids, majority are ornamentals, beyond beauty they also boon for perfume, vegetables and medicine. They are playing a key role in horticulture as ornamental plants, used for decoration in all kinds of ceremonies and florists often used in bouquets. The present paper deals with 19 species belonging to 10 genera and key to the species, brief description, Flowering and fruiting period, locality, economic importance, photographs etc. were provided.

Chloroplast genome structure and phylogenetic position of Calanthe sylvatica (Thou.) Lindl. (Orchidaceae)

Calanthe sylvatica plays an important role in horticulture and is undergoing the pressure of population decline. In this study, its complete chloroplast genome sequence was successfully obtained by the technology of Illumina sequencing. The whole chloroplast genome length was 158,828 bp with a typical quadripartite structure: one large single copy (LSC) region (87,277 bp), one small single copy (SSC) region (18,535 bp) and a pair of inverted repeats (IR) regions (26,508 bp). The GC content of this genome was 36.7%. The genome contained 118 genes consisting of 84 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. The phylogenetic analysis indicated a close relationship between C. sylvatica and Calanthe triplicata.

Diversity of peri-urban horticulture as a development strategy for Beja region

Horticulture has been occurring for a long time in Tunisia especially at the outskirts of cities. If, traditionally, the role of this horticulture was embodied in food function, today, this sector is one of the key factors of territorial development. It is considered as a viable and sustainable solution to food insecurity, unemployment, and environmental degradation. In Tunisia, this sector participates with 40% of agricultural production value, 27% of agricultural employment and 90% of vegetable needs. Despite its potentialities, horticulture in Tunisia is facing many challenges related to the growing urbanization and resource management. These factors will certainly cause the fragility of this horticulture if adequate measures are not implemented. Peri-urban horticulture should be thought of as a strategy. This strategy should focus on the sustainable management of horticulture through sustainable production intensification, diversification of functions, and improvement of the living conditions of small farmers. The aim of this study is to describe the potentialities of peri-urban horticulture in Beja region and to highlight the constraints that limit the expansion of these production systems. This study deals also with the role of peri-urban horticulture in the organization of the Tunisian northwest territory, particularly at Testour region.

The Role of Horticulture in the Prehistoric Apishapa Region of Southeastern Colorado

At least 40 sites in the Apishapa region of southeastern Colorado and adjacent portions of New Mexico and Oklahoma have produced evidence of prehistoric maize. Firmly dated remains range in age from Late Archaic through Late Prehistoric, with the greatest occurrence between A.D. 550 and 1350. Maize was widespread throughout the region but the remains at individual sites are typically scant. The occurrence of maize increases in frequency over time, a trend that correlates more readily with population increase than climatic variation. The long-standing hunter-gatherer economy of southeastern Colorado persisted into Late Prehistoric times and was supplemented but not replaced by maize horticulture. Over time, pressure on resources resulted in a reduction in mobility and corresponding coalescence of populations into seasonally-occupied sites in canyon areas where resource diversity and availability were greatest. Prolonged drought after A.D. 1000 resulted in abandonment of southeastern Colorado ca. A.D. 1450. A mixed hunter-gatherer and horticultural economy characterized this period, although procurement of wild plant foods and hunting (mostly small mammals) remained prevalent. The failure of maize horticulture to assume a more prominent role in Apishapa subsistence practices may reflect the marginal nature of the semi-arid environment, where even today the growing of food crops is limited both by availability of water and, in some areas, elevation.
