Commercial uses – Falcataria falcata softwood is used to make match-sticks, chopsticks, shipping pallets, and wooden boxes. The pulp is used for paper-making. [10] Plywood production and veneer based products have increasingly been an important use for these trees. [6] Traditional uses – Whole tree trunks are carved for seagoing canoes.
Falcataria is a genus of flowering plants in the family Fabaceae. It belongs to the monophyletic Mimosoid clade [ 1 ] [ 3 ] in the subfamily Caesalpinioideae . [ 3 ] The genus has three species previously classified in the Falcataria section of the genus Paraserianthes by I.C. Neilsen.
An alternative basionym must be sought or a new name created. The correct name is Falcataria falcata (L.) Greuter & R.Rankin. [11] The four names Adenanthera falcataria, Albizia falcataria, Paraserianthes falcataria and Falcataria falcata can each be correct given different taxonomic opinions that put the plant in each of these four genera ...
Cream albizia (A. adianthifolia) Albizia amaraThere are approximately 99 accepted species in the legume tree genus Albizia, the silk trees, sirises, or albizias. [1]Numerous species placed in Albizia by early authors were eventually moved to other genera, particularly Archidendron and many other Ingeae, as well as certain Acacieae, Mimoseae, and even Caesalpinioideae and Faboideae.
The delimitation of Falcataria and Pithecellobium, close relatives of Albizia, is notoriously complex, with species having been moved between the genera time and again, and this will likely continue. These include Falcataria falcata (the Moluccan albizia, formerly named Albizia moluccana), a common shade tree on tea plantations.
Uromycladium falcatarium (falcataria gall rust fungus) is a species of rust fungus in the genus Uromycladium. It was circumscribed by mycologists Doungsa-ard, McTaggart & Shivasin in 2015. [1] The species infects the Fabaceae tree Falcataria moluccana (= Paraserianthes falcataria) [1] in south-east Asia.
These cells may be cells isolated from a donor organism (primary cells) or an immortalised cell line. The cells are bathed in a culture medium, which contains essential nutrients and energy sources necessary for the cells' survival. [8] Thus, in its broader sense, "tissue culture" is often used interchangeably with "cell culture".
Most species in Acanthops are colloquially referred to as the dead leaf mantis, a common name also used for species in several other mantid genera.The genus name translates from the Greek nouns ἄκανθα and ὅψ as "thorn eye", referring to the presence in all Acanthops species of a shorter or longer conical tubercle on top of each eye.
