Piante e loro anomalie vegetative: schede documentarie. 27-39

Abstract

The section dedicated to plant vegetative anomalies affecting vas- cular plants has started in the last issue of this journal, (Raimondo & Schicchi, 2010). In that first contribution 26 reports, by Spadaro & al. (2010) and by Cristaudo & al.(2010) respectively, were presented. The first 11 of them concern Anthemis secundiramea, Araucaria heterophylla, Cakile maritima, Conyza bonariensis, Euphorbia linifolia, Laurus nobilis, Ocimum basilicum, Orobanche lavandulacea, Osyris alba, Scrophularia canina subsp. Bicolour, and Ulmus sp.; The other15 reports concern Carlina gummifera, Echium plantagineum, Euphorbia dendroides, E. linifolia, E. myrsinites, Jasminum sambac, Pararchidendron pruinosum, Pereskia grandiflora, Prunus dulcis, Rumex bucephalophorus subsp. bucephalophorus, Spar- tium junceum, Opuntia ficus-indica, Phytolacca dioica, Verbascum Thapsus, and Vitis vinifera. The idea of editors to stimu- late observations on plant vegetative anomalies has been followed and several other cases have been now submitted for publication. In this second contribution 13 reports are presented: the first 11, by R.E. Spallino & M. Tessitori, concern veg- etative anomalies observed on Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers., Convolvulus arvensis, Vitis vinifera cv. Chardonnay, Erigeron bonariensis, Echium plantagineum, E. vulgare, Genista aetnensis, Chenopodium album, Spartium junceum, Brassica rapa subsp. rapa and Picris echioides; the last 2, by G. Licandro & M.R. Cucco, refer to Aphodelus fistulosus and Hyoseris ra- diata. All reports concern cases observed in Sicily and refer both spontaneous and cultivated plants.
