The historical influence of sugarcane in Hawai‘i tends to overshadow the fact that Native Hawaiians cultivated dozens of unique varieties of sugarcane for almost a millennium before the arrival of Europeans. The objective of this study was to characterize the genetic and phenotypic diversity of sugarcane to reexamine the relationships between traditional Hawaiian sugarcane varieties and heirloom cultivars from elsewhere in the Pacific. To this end, a morphological assessment utilizing 95 phenotypic characteristics of 53 extant cultivars held in ethnobotanical collections was conducted, along with genetic assignment using 6,570 polymorphic SNP markers on 156 diverse varieties. In investigating distinct traditional cultivars of extant sugarcane collections in Hawai ‘i as “Hawaiian,” our findings demonstrated the need for intimate knowledge and relationships with accessions in order to make meaningful interpretations of genetic and phenotypic data. Based on over 15 years of involvement with the heirloom Hawaiian canes and the traditional and contemporary uses, we demonstrated and discussed the unique value of these cultivars, and their potential to contribute to economics, sustainability, and the preservation of cultural heritage.</p>","PeriodicalId":11412,"journal":{"name":"Economic Botany","volume":"8 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2022-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138494764","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"The Soga Saga: The Potential of Maclura cochinchinensis (Moraceae) as an Eco–Friendly Dye in Indonesia","authors":"A. B. Cunningham, W. Ingram, C. Koenunu, IWayan Sukadana, W. Kadati","doi":"10.1007/s12231-021-09536-1","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1007/s12231-021-09536-1","url":null,"abstract":"&lt;p&gt;This study focuses on the potential for sustainable use of &lt;i&gt;M. cochinchinensis&lt;/i&gt;, a yellow dye used in Javanese &lt;i&gt;soga&lt;/i&gt; batik. Prices paid for &lt;i&gt;M. cochinchinensis&lt;/i&gt; heartwood at the start of the value–chain (IDR 1,000/kg [USD 0.071/kg]) in West Timor are low, despite depleted wild stocks. Bulk suppliers to the batik industry in Java, however, sell &lt;i&gt;M. cochinchinensis&lt;/i&gt; dye–wood at IDR 21,000/kg (USD 1.50/kg), trying to source this heartwood at low prices. Although we estimated 14.12 stems/ha, most (87%) were small stems (&lt; 10 cm basal circumference [BC], 11.53 stems/ha). &lt;i&gt;M. cochinchinensis&lt;/i&gt; dye is heartwood from large diameter (&gt; 29 cm BC) stems (0.8 stems/ha [5.5%]). Recruitment of medium and large stems is poor due to browse of small stems by livestock. Wild stocks are unlikely to sustain current commercial demand. Natural mortality rates of this dense (c. 0.8 g/cm&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt;) hardwood species are low, so we also concluded that the option of sustainable harvesting deadwood based on natural mortality rates was not economically viable. The most appropriate ways forward are first, to conserve &lt;i&gt;M. cochinchinensis&lt;/i&gt; populations in remnant &lt;i&gt;le’u&lt;/i&gt; (“sacred”) forests and maintain “trellis trees” in the surrounding landscape. Second, to promote &lt;i&gt;M. cochinchinensis&lt;/i&gt; cultivation along wooden fence lines (&lt;i&gt;bahan&lt;/i&gt;). Implementation of “living fences” at a large scale is possible, also improving food security by reducing livestock damage to crops. Third, to develop niche markets paying fair prices for sustainably harvested &lt;i&gt;M. cochinchinensis&lt;/i&gt; dye–wood.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Studi ini difokuskan pada potensi pemanfaatan secara berkelanjutan dari M. cochinchinensis, yaitu pewarna kuning yang digunakan pada resep &lt;i&gt;soga&lt;/i&gt; oleh pembatik di Jawa. Harga yang dibayarkan kepada pemanen hati kayu &lt;i&gt;M. cochinchinensis&lt;/i&gt; yang berada pada rantai pasar paling pertama di Timor Barat tergolong rendah (Rp. 1000 / kg (USD 0,071 / kg), padahal stok liar yang layak panen telah habis. Akan tetapi, penjual grosir untuk industri batik di Jawa menjual hati kayu &lt;i&gt;M. cochinchinensis&lt;/i&gt; dengan harga Rp 21.000 / kg (USD 1,50 / kg), padahal mereka membeli dengan harga rendah. Dari kepadatan populasi yang diperkirakan 14,12 batang / ha, sebagian besar (87%) adalah batang kecil (&lt; 10 cm lingkar basal (BC), 11,53 batang / ha). Bagian yang menghasilkan warna dari &lt;i&gt;M. cochinchinensis&lt;/i&gt; adalah hati kayu dari batang berdiameter besar (&gt; 29 cm BC) (0,8 batang / ha (5,5%). Tingkat kelangsungan hidup batang berukuran sedang dan besar tidak bagus karena anakan dimakan ternak. Stok liar tidak mungkin bisa menopang permintaan komersial saat ini. Oleh karena tingkat kematian alami dari jenis kayu keras dan padat ini cukup rendah (c. 0.8 g / cm3) kami menyimpulkan bahwa pemanenan kayu mati tidak layak secara ekonomi. Jalan untuk menjaga ketersediaan tumbuhan ini terdiri dari tiga tahap. Pertama, melestarikan populasi &lt;i&gt;M. cochinchinensis&lt;/i&gt;","PeriodicalId":11412,"journal":{"name":"Economic Botany","volume":"8 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2022-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138494763","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In NYC, the flora is limited to what is available in the city. We selected plants for future laboratory research based on ethnobotanical data from two surveys among Dominicans in the DR and NYC, and a Haitian literature review. In both Dominican datasets, gynecological infections were the top women's health condition treated with plants. We identified 10 species for this purpose reported by Dominicans that are also known medicines in Haitian culture, although not yet documented for women's health. Plants for gynecological infections potentially cause dysbiosis of the vaginal microbiota, and may increase rather than prevent disease. There is a public health need to assess traditional medicines for their ability to inhibit pathogenic bacteria, while causing minimal disruption to the vaginal flora. Several species are known antibacterials<i>,</i> but remain to be tested for their efficacy.

Its population is characterized by an important number of cultural groups. Many inhabitants originate from the Caribbean (mostly Saint Lucia, Martinique, Guadeloupe, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic). The objectives of this study were to present an overview of the main uses of plants among the Caribbean populations in French Guiana, and how they contribute to the dynamics of plant-based practices, in order to provide insights into ethnobotanical convergences, divergences, and hybridizations (such as the importation of new species and associated practices, and the adoption of Amazonian species by Caribbean people). Interviews and botanical voucher collections were conducted throughout the coastal area of French Guiana. Sixteen Saint Lucian, nineteen Haitian, eighteen French Caribbean, and twelve Dominican informants were interviewed during the fieldwork. Altogether they use 212 botanical species. Some plants have recently been imported directly from the Caribbean, while adaptations have also taken place: some species that do not exist locally are abandoned while Amazonian species are integrated to form hybrid pharmacopoeias. The phytotherapies of these communities in French Guiana are still conserved as consistent sets of knowledge, although they tend to blend through an ongoing process of hybridization.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s12231-021-09529-0.</p>","PeriodicalId":11412,"journal":{"name":"Economic Botany","volume":"76 2","pages":"176-188"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8528477/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10780568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
