  • a new species of Capparis l capparaceae from sumatra indonesia
    Adansonia, 2021
    Co-Authors: Silvio Fici
    Abstract:

    A new species of Capparis L., C. irenae Fici, sp. nov., is described and illustrated from Tigapuluh Mts., Riau Province of Sumatra, where it is known from a single locality in forest communities. The new species, belonging to Capparis sect. Monostichocalyx Radlk., is related to C. diffusa Ridl., differing in several characters as the glabrous twigs, longer petioles and leaves, flowers arranged in racemes with cataphylls at the base, longer petals hairy outside and longer filaments. Its affinities with other related taxa and its conservation status are discussed. Moreover a distribution map of the new species and an identification key to the species of Capparis recognized in Sumatra are provided.

  • Capparis spinosa capparaceae a survey on morpho ecologic variation for different populations of iran
    Journal of Genetic Resources, 2021
    Co-Authors: Sakine Najafian, Iraj Mehregan, Alireza Iranbakhsh, Mostafa Assadi, Silvio Fici
    Abstract:

    Capparis spinosa grows naturally from the Atlantic coast of the Canary Islands and Morocco to the Black Sea, in Crimea and Armenia, and to the east side of the Caspian Sea in Iran. Capparis species are valuable as a resource for medicine, food, improving soil fertility, stabilizing dunes, fuel, timber, and livestock feed. In this research, sixteen populations of Capparis spinosa were collected from different locations in Iran and quantitative and qualitative data of morphological characters were revised. A multivariable statistical analysis was performed for the morphological characters of Capparis populations. The populations were classified into two main groups using a Ward'shierarchicalclustering method. We showed some of the climatic conditions correlate with morphological characters. Data obtained were standardized (Mean= 0, variance= 1) and used to estimate Euclidean distance for clustering and ordination analyses. PCA (Principal components analysis) was used to identify the most variable morphological characters among the studied populations. The Redundancy Analysis (RDA) was applied to the dataset of nine explanatory environmental variables (annual precipitation and temperature, number of frost days, relative humidity, potential evapotranspiration, minimum and maximum absolute temperatures, minimum temperature of the coldest month of the year, and maximum temperature of the warmest month). In the Flora of Iran and Flora Iranica C. spinosa and C. sicula are considered as synonyms, which are improved by this study.

  • Capparis macrantha sp nov capparaceae brassicales a new shrub species from a deciduous forest of the nam kading national protected area central lao pdr
    European journal of taxonomy, 2020
    Co-Authors: Keooudone Souvannakhoummane, Silvio Fici, Soulivanh Lanorsavanh, Jeong Ho Park, Ho Sang Kang, Chaloun Bounithiphonh
    Abstract:

    Capparis macrantha Souvannakhoummane, Fici & Lanorsavanh sp. nov., a new shrub species characterized by erect or ascending habit, stipular thorns, large lanceolate-elliptic leaves and large flowers in supra-axillary rows, is described and illustrated from the deciduous forest in Nam Kading National Protected Area (central Lao PDR). The new species belongs to Capparis sect. Monostichocalyx Radlk. and is morphologically similar to C. radula Gagnep., a shrub widespread in the Indochinese area, differing in the shorter, straight stipular thorns, larger leaves, larger sepals and petals, higher number of stamens with longer filaments and longer gynophore and ovary. Its affinities with related taxa are discussed and a key is provided for the species of Capparis L. known from Lao PDR. The conservation status of the new species is provisionally assessed as Vulnerable (VU D1).

    'Universidad Nacional de Jaen', 2019
    Co-Authors: Padilla Villalobos, Mercy Alexandra
    Abstract:

    TesisEl trabajo de investigación denominado “Captura de dióxido de carbono del fuste de Acacia macracantha “Faique” y Capparis scabrida “Sapote de perro” en el bosque seco distrito de Jaén”, se desarrolló en cinco lugares de los bosques secos del distrito y provincia de Jaén del departamento de Cajamarca, con la finalidad de obtener información sobre ¿Cuánto es la captura de dióxido de carbono del fuste de especies arbóreas de Acacia macracantha y Capparis scabrida en 5 parcelas de 3600 m2 del bosque seco de Jaén, Cajamarca? Y ¿Cuál de las dos especies elegidas para la investigación captura mayor dióxido de carbono del fuste?, para ello se procedió a realizar un censo forestal de las dos especies seleccionadas al 100 % en cada una de las parcelas establecidas, donde se registraron datos dasométricos (altura total y dap) de cada uno de los individuos que presentaron el dap> 10 cm; para la determinación del dióxido de carbono se procedió a desarrollar un método no destructivo, el cual consistió en la extracción de muestras del fuste de los árboles con ayuda de un Barreno de Pressler, las muestras fueron secadas a temperatura ambiente y posteriormente se midió el largo y fueron pesadas en una balanza analítica; el cálculo de la biomasa fue determinada con la fórmula propuesta por Vital, (1985); el carbono y dióxido de carbono se determinó con la fórmula propuesta por Campos y Leite (2017); los resultados de la evaluación desarrollada en los cinco lugares especificados demostraron que la especie Capparis scabrida capturó un total de 3.3616 Tn CO2 y la especie Acacia macracantha un total de 2.9910 Tn CO2

  • a systematic revision of Capparis section Capparis capparaceae 1 2
    Annals of the Missouri Botanical Garden, 2006
    Co-Authors: Cristina Inocencio, Diego Rivera, Francisco Alcaraz, Ma Concepcion Obon, Joseantonio Barrena
    Abstract:

    A systematic revision of Capparis sect. Capparis, from western and Central Asia, North Africa, and Europe, is presented here. The taxonomy of this section has been approached combining morphological, biogeographical and molecular data when available. Ten species are recognized, including two new species, Capparis atlantica and C. zoharyi. In addition, four new subspecies are presented: Capparis ovata subsp. myrtifolia, C. parviflora subsp. sphaerocarpa, C. sicula subsp. mesopotamica, and C. sicula subsp. sindiana. Lectotypes are designated for C. aegyptia, C. hereroensis, C. mucronifolia, C. elliptica, C. mucronifolia Boiss. subsp. rosanoviana, C. rupestris, C. ovata, C. parviflora, C. spinosa var. canescens, C. sicula subsp. herbacea, and C. sicula subsp. leucophylla. A full taxonomic treatment, keys, and distribution maps of the recognized species are provided. The two new species are illustrated.

  • the typification of Capparis inermis forssk c sinaica veill and c cartilaginea decne capparaceae
    Taxon, 2003
    Co-Authors: Diego Rivera, Cristina Inocencio, Concepcion Obon, Francisco Alcaraz, Ib Friis, Antonio Reales
    Abstract:

    The binomials Capparis inermis Forssk. and C. cartilaginea Decne. are neo- and lectotypified, respectively. Thus typified, C. inermis Forssk. and C. cartilaginea Decne. are conspecific, and the correct name for the taxon would be the older binomial, C. inermis Forssk., unless a current proposal to conserve C. cartilaginea against C. inermis is accepted. Capparis sinaica Veill. is lectotypified by an illustration cited in the protologue and becomes a synonym of C. aegyptia Lam. Capparis inermis Turra is an illegitimate later homonym of Forsskal's name, and C. dahi Forssk. does not refer to a taxon belonging to the genus Capparis.

  • archaeobotany of capers Capparis capparaceae
    Vegetation History and Archaeobotany, 2002
    Co-Authors: Diego Rivera, Cristina Inocencio, Concepcion Obon, E Carreno, Antonio Reales, Francisco Alcaraz
    Abstract:

    The origins of capers, their use and cultivation are discussed. Capers seeds and charcoal are often recovered from archaeological sites of the Mediterranean and West Asia. These are referred to as C. Spinosa L. This is mostly a group of cultivars restricted to localities surrounding the Western Mediterranean and some places in the Eastern Mediterranean. Identification of the findings is discussed in terms of seed morphology, present distribution and ancient uses of C. aegyptia Lam., C. sicula Veill., C. cartilaginea Decne, C. orientalis Veill., C. decidua (Forssk.) Edgew. and other species. Citations of Capparis in early Rabbinic, Mesopotamian and Greco-Roman texts are presented.
