Dataset on leaf surface and elemental study of four species of Bignoniaceae family by SEM-EDAX.

ABSTRACT: The data presented in this article are related to the scanning electron microscope and elemental studies in the four species of Bignoniaceae namely Tecoma gaudichaudi DC (Sample 1), Tecoma capensis (Thunb.) Lindl. (Sample 2), Tecoma stans (L.) Juss.Ex Kunth (Sample 3), Tabebuia rosea (Bertol.) (Sample 4). The SEM images were obtained for permanent record. The abaxial and adaxial surfaces of each species were carefully studied. In addition to this, the consistent occurrence of anomocytic stomata in all four species of this family shows that morphological and taxonomically all the species are very close and intimate. The elemental data on leaf samples of all four species were performed and total eight important components were present such as C, O, Mg, Al, Si, Cl, K, Ca. These elements are useful, so identification of inorganic components of these species defiantly helps to promote as dietary elements.

Dataset on the microstructure morphology and elemental composition of the palm kernel shell and the coconut kernel shell by TEM/SEM and EDXA/EDS.

Project description:Coconut kernel shell (CKS) and palm kernel shell (PKS) powders were analyzed using Surface Electron Microcopy (SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). The SEM and TEM were combined with Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy Analysis for elemental composition of the sample materials. The micrographs of all samples were thoroughly examined and explained. The dataset presented herein helps to elucidate the ultrastructure and could suggest expanding traditional applications of the PKS/CKS to novel ones. The data are related to the research article "Insight on the Ultrastructure, Physicochemical and Thermal Characteristics and Applications of the Palm Kernel Shells" (Ntenga et al., 2018).

Dataset of leaf inclination angles for 71 different Eucalyptus species.

Project description:The leaf inclination angle distribution is an important parameter in models useful for understanding forest canopy processes of photosynthesis, evapotranspiration, radiation transmission, and spectral reflectance. Yet, despite the strong sensitivity of many of these models to variability in leaf inclination angle distribution, relatively few measurements have been reported for different tree species in literature and databases such as TRY, and various assumptions about leaf inclination angle distribution are often made by modellers. Here we provide a dataset of leaf inclination angles for 71 different Australia-native Eucalyptus species measured in 13 botanical gardens around the world. Leaf inclination angles were measured using a leveled digital camera approach. The leaf angle measurements were used to estimate corresponding Beta distribution parameters and to assign the appropriate classic type of leaf inclination angle distribution. The data can be used to parameterize leaf angle distributions in e.g., physically-based reflectance models, land surface models, and regional carbon cycle models.

Surface energies of elemental crystals.

Project description:The surface energy is a fundamental property of the different facets of a crystal that is crucial to the understanding of various phenomena like surface segregation, roughening, catalytic activity, and the crystal's equilibrium shape. Such surface phenomena are especially important at the nanoscale, where the large surface area to volume ratios lead to properties that are significantly different from the bulk. In this work, we present the largest database of calculated surface energies for elemental crystals to date. This database contains the surface energies of more than 100 polymorphs of about 70 elements, up to a maximum Miller index of two and three for non-cubic and cubic crystals, respectively. Well-known reconstruction schemes are also accounted for. The database is systematically improvable and has been rigorously validated against previous experimental and computational data where available. We will describe the methodology used in constructing the database, and how it can be accessed for further studies and design of materials.

A new species of Amphitecna (Bignoniaceae) endemic to Chiapas, Mexico.

Project description:Amphitecna loreae Ortiz-Rodr. & Burelo, sp. nov. (Bignoniaceae), a new species endemic to the karst rainforest in southern Mexico, is described and illustrated. The new species differs from the other species of Amphitecna by the combination of cauliflorous inflorescences, larger flowers, buds rounded at apex, and globose-ellipsoid rather than acuminate fruits. A key to the Mexican species of Amphitecna is presented.

Two new species of Tynanthus Miers (Bignonieae, Bignoniaceae) from Brazil.

Project description:Tynanthus is a genus of lianas that is broadly distributed through the Neotropics. Two new species of Tynanthus from Brazil are here described and illustrated: Tynanthusdensiflorus, from Amazonas, and Tynanthusespiritosantensis, from Espírito Santo. Tynanthusdensiflorus is recognized by the conspicuous interpetiolar glandular fields, a feature rarely found in Tynanthus, and the dense thyrses. Tynanthusespiritosantensis, on the other hand, is recognized by the bromeliad-like prophylls of the axillary buds and the lax thyrses. Information on the distribution, conservation status and morphologically similar species are provided.

In situ elemental analyses of living biological specimens using 'NanoSuit' and EDS methods in FE-SEM.

Project description:Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) carried out alongside scanning electron microscopy (SEM) is a common technique for elemental analysis. To investigate "wet" biological specimens, complex pre-treatments are required to stabilize them under the high vacuum conditions of high-resolution SEM. These often produce unwanted artifacts. We have previously reported that the polymerization of natural surface substances on organisms by the electron beam of the SEM setup or by plasma irradiation causes a nano-scale layer to form-called a "NanoSuit"-that can act as a barrier and keep organisms alive and hydrated in a field-emission SEM system. In the study reported herein, we examined the suitability of the NanoSuit method for elemental analyses of biological specimens by EDS. We compared experimental results for living Drosophila larvae and Aloe arborescens specimens prepared by the NanoSuit method and by conventional fixation. The NanoSuit method allowed accurate detection of the elemental compositions at high resolution. By contrast, specimens prepared by the conventional fixation method displayed additional EDS signals corresponding to the elements in the chemicals involved in the fixation process. Our results demonstrate that the NanoSuit method is useful for studying hydrous samples via EDS and SEM, particularly in biological sciences.

Problematic specimens turn out to be two undescribed species of Bignonia (Bignoniaceae).

Project description:Bignonia comprises 29 species of lianas characterized by eight phloem wedges, leaves usually 2-foliolate, mostly simple tendrils and opaque seed wings. The analysis of herbarium specimens in preparation for a taxonomic revision of the genus led to the recognition of two new species: (i) Bignonia cararensis from Costa Rica, characterized by a thyrse with lateral compound dichasia and lack of interpetiolar ridge, and (ii) Bignonia sanctae-crucis from Bolivia and Brazil, distinguishable by its membranous leaflets, membranous calyx and small fruits. We provide detailed descriptions, illustrations, distribution maps, initial conservation status assessments, and comparisons of the newly described taxa with closely related species.
