“…In this context, botanical gardens play a very important role in urban sustainability: adding to botanical knowledge, they also store years of practice in horticulture and arboriculture, which is extremely useful to improve urban green spaces in fields such as tree selection and planting, urban forest management plans and restoration [ 4 ]. Furthermore, this kind of knowledge can help in the implementation of sustainable environmental management practices, urban biodiversity [ 44 ], and the maintenance of urban trees [ 45 ], as well as to promote ecosystem services, preserving and valuing biodiversity [ 46 ].…”

Botanical gardens have long contributed to plant science and have played a leading role in ex situ conservation, namely of threatened tree species. Focusing on the three botanical gardens of Lisbon (i.e., Botanical Garden of Ajuda—JBA, Lisbon Botanical Garden—JBL, and Tropical Botanical Garden—JBT), this study aims to reveal their natural heritage and to understand the historical motivations for their creation. Our results showed that these gardens contain a total of 2551 tree specimens, corresponding to 462 taxa, within 80 plant families. Of these, 85 taxa are found in the three gardens, and more than half of the taxa are hosted in JBL (334 taxa), whereas 230 and 201 taxa were recorded in JBT and JBA, respectively. The motivations for the creation of each garden are reflected in the different geographic origins of the trees they host in their living collections. The Palearctic species are dominant in JBA and JBL, and Tropical trees prevail in JBT. With more than 250 years of history, these gardens hold an invaluable natural and historical heritage, with their living collections providing valuable sources of information for the conservation of threatened plant species, at local and global scales.

“…Bogor Botanic Gardens (BBG) is the oldest ex-situ conservation institution in Southeast Asia (Ariati & Widyatmoko, 2019). The garden has more than 15,000 living collections and one of them is Ficus L. (Moraceae) (Hotimah et al, 2015). The genus is mainly distributed in the tropics and 367 species occurring in the Malesia region (Berg & Corner, 2005) Jurnal Biodjati 6(1):36-44, May 2021 http://journal.uinsgd.ac.id/index.php/biodjati which divided into 87 identified species and 13 remains unidentified (Peniwidiyanti & Hariri, 2019).…”

Ficus spp. belongs to the tribe Ficeae in the Moraceae family. Many members of this genus have been collected and grown in Bogor Botanic Gardens. There are 519 living collections of Ficus conserved since 1817, and 13 of them have not been identified until the species level. This research aimed to identify the Ficus sp. originated from Kaur Selatan (Bengkulu) using morphological and molecular approaches. Morphological characterization and herbarium specimen observation have been carried out to identify the Ficus sp. The molecular approach was conducted through DNA barcoding using ITS primer. The molecular identification using ITS sequence showed that Ficus sp. is Ficus crassiramea with 99.87% similarity to the sequence in NCBI. Morphological observation through herbarium specimen showed that there are 9 vegetative characters specific to Ficus crassiramea.

“…The best efforts made by the manager of the botanical garden will bring the future of the botanical garden in a better direction as well. Management is not only related to existing plants as the main resources of botanical gardens but also how the efforts of botanical gardens maximize existing services so that the destinations owned and expected by tourists by visiting the Bogor Botanical Gardens are fulfilled (Hotimah et al, 2015).…”
