The Flora Of Citico Creek Wilderness Study Area, Cherokee National Forest, Monroe County, Tennessee, Jeffry Lowell Malter Dec 1977

The Flora Of Citico Creek Wilderness Study Area, Cherokee National Forest, Monroe County, Tennessee, Jeffry Lowell Malter

Masters Theses

Citico Creek Wilderness Study Area, located entirely within the Cherokee National Forest, Monroe County, Tennessee, is under consideration for inclusion in the National Wilderness System. A study of the vascular flora of this 6,716 hectare area was conducted between March, 1976 and September, 1977. A total of 536 taxa, including 259 county records, was determined. This represents approximately 23% of the state flora.

Pertinent literature on the history, climate, geology, soils, and vegetation of the area is summarized. Particular note has been made of rare plants, with seven on the Tennessee list being found. One of these, Juncus gymnocarpus Coville, …

B744: The Woody Plants Of Sphagnous Bogs Of Northern New England And Adjacent Canada, Fay Hyland, Barbara Hoisington Nov 1977

B744: The Woody Plants Of Sphagnous Bogs Of Northern New England And Adjacent Canada, Fay Hyland, Barbara Hoisington

Bulletins

Bogs are fascinating places to visit! One may compare these sphagnum-covered areas with huge amphitheatres covered with wall- to-wall carpets intricately woven into multistructured mats. To the novice or one without botanical training, these areas might appear as monotonous assemblages of only a few species of stunted plants so similar in appearance as to appear homogeneous, but a keen observer will detect as many different species as might be found in a rich woods. By use of keys, descriptions, and illustrations provided , identification of all species is made easy and certain. Fifty or more different kinds of woody plants …


The Extrafloral Nectaries Of Ipomoea Carnea (Convolvulaceae), Kathleen H. Keeler Nov 1977

The Extrafloral Nectaries Of Ipomoea Carnea (Convolvulaceae), Kathleen H. Keeler

School of Biological Sciences: Faculty Publications

lpomoea carnea (Convolvulaceae) possesses two types of extrafloral nectaries, located on the petiole and on the pedicel. These secrete a complex nectar containing sugars and amino acids. The insects attracted to the extrafloral nectaries are predominantly ants and they are relatively abundant throughout the year. A number of incidents of plant defense as a result of the presence of extrafloral nectary visitors at the extrafloral nectaries of I. carnea were observed and are consistent with the ant-guard theory of the function of extrafloral nectaries.

Plant Distribution And Succession Within Interdunal Depressions On A Virginia Barrier Dune System, Robert Wayne Tyndall Oct 1977

Plant Distribution And Succession Within Interdunal Depressions On A Virginia Barrier Dune System, Robert Wayne Tyndall

Biological Sciences Theses & Dissertations

A unique series of interdunal depressions was recognized on the barrier dune system of southeastern Virginia. Plant distribution and succession, and environmental factors controlling them, were studied in the series. Plant community distribution appears to be predominantly controlled by soil moisture, interspecific competition, and feral hog disturbance. Both biotic and physiographic succession are apparent with Quercus virginiana probably climax for both. Salt spray and feral hog and migratory waterfowl activity are important controlling factors of plant succession. Results indicate that the zonal appearance of shrubs and trees on the Virginia and North Carolina coasts is due to the absence of …
