“…When a supra-specific group did not have a homogeneous morphology, the authors of these studies filled the matrix with ancestral states deduced from knowledge of basal relationships in the taxon supported by other studies. Relationships within the compartments of Magnoliidae used by Endress and Doyle (2009) and Doyle and Endress (2010) to deduce plesiomorphic traits of these supra-specific terminals have not been contradicted by subsequent studies focused on particular families (Marquínez et al, 2009;Michalak et al, 2010;Renner et al, 2010;Chatrou et al, 2012). For all these reasons, we argue that the positions of the fossils supported in these studies are up-to-date and can be used with some confidence.…”

“…However, this character was not included in the Doyle and Endress (2010) data set because it was not appli-cable to most taxa. The sister-group relationship between living Winteraceae and Canellaceae is very well supported in the literature (e.g., Chase et al, 1993;Zanis et al, 2002Zanis et al, , 2003Qiu et al, 2005Qiu et al, , 2006Marquínez et al, 2009). We therefore consider Walkeripollis gabonensis to provide a minimum age for crown-group Canellales (Figure 1).…”

“…Previous molecular dating analyses of Magnoliidae have been carried out either at an intra-ordinal level (e.g., Chanderbali et al, 2001;Doyle et al, 2004;Pirie et al, 2006;Smith et al, 2008;Marquínez et al, 2009;Pirie and Doyle, 2012) or at the level of angiosperms and higher (e.g., Bell et al, 2005Bell et al, , 2010Moore et al, 2007;Soltis et al, 2008;Magallón and Castillo, 2009;Magallón, 2010;Smith et al, 2010). A maximum of six calibration points have been used so far within the group (Magallón and Castillo, 2009).…”

“…Magallón (2010) and Magallón et al (2013) used Walkeripollis to provide a minimum age of 125 Ma for the same node recommended here (crown-group Canellales). Marquínez et al (2009) used this fossil to fix the age of the crown node of Winteraceae at 120 Ma.…”

“…1 The Winteraceae have developed as almost exclusively southern hemisphere plants, originating from precursor species on the Gondwanna super continent. Their current distribution ranges from the cool climate regions of the southern Australia and New Zealand through to the temperate and tropical regions of Borneo, Madagascar, Molucca, New Caledonia, Papua new Guinea, the Philippines and Southern and Central America, with the majority concentrated in Australasia and Malanesia.…”

Introduction: Pseudowintera colorata (Raoul) Dandy is an evergreen shrub which is endemic to New Zealand. Decoctions, infusions and essential oils produced from the leaves were used traditionally to treat a variety of bacterial diseases. Despite this, P. colorata leaf extracts have not been rigorously examined for inhibitory activity against bacterial triggers of autoimmune inflammatory diseases. Methods: A P. colorata hydro-alcohol leaf extract was analysed for antioxidant capacity by the DPPH free radical scavenging assay. Growth inhibitory activities against bacterial species associated with initiating rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, multiple sclerosis and rheumatic fever were determined by disc diffusion assay and quantified by MIC determination. Toxicity was determined by Artemia franciscana bioassay. Results: The P. colorata hydro-alcohol leaf extract displayed good DPPH radical scavenging activity, with an antioxidant capacity of 52 µg/ mL ascorbic acid equivalency. The extract inhibited the growth of all of the bacterial triggers of autoimmune inflammatory diseases tested. It was a particularly potent inhibitor of A. baylyi, with MIC values as low as 427 µg/ mL against the clinical strain. P. mirabilis and P. vulgaris were also highly susceptible to the P. colorata hydro-alcohol leaf extract, with MIC values of approximately 800-900 µg/mL against all strains. The extract was also a moderate growth inhibitor (MIC >1000 µg/mL) of all other bacterial strains tested. The extract was determined to be nontoxic in the Artemia franciscana nauplii bioassay with 24 h LC 50 values substantially >1000 µg/mL, indicating its safety for therapeutic use. Conclusion: The lack of toxicity of the P. colorata leaf extracts and their growth inhibitory bioactivity against a panel of bacterial triggers of autoimmune inflammatory diseases indicate their potential in the prevention and treatment of these diseases in genetically susceptible individuals.

Linking uplift, erosion, and sedimentation using landscape evolution models: Madagascar since the Late Cretaceous

We present a study to estimate the large-scale landscape history of a continental margin, by establishing a source-to-sink volume balance between the eroding onshore areas and the offshore basins. Assuming erosion as the primary process for sediment production, we strive to constrain a numerical model of landscape evolution that balances the volumes of eroded materials from the continent and that deposited in the corresponding basins, with a ratio imposed for loss of erosion products. We use this approach to investigate the landscape history of Madagascar since the Late Cretaceous. The uplift history prescribed in the model is inferred from elevations of planation surfaces formed at various ages. By fitting the volumes of terrigenous sediments in the Morondava Basin along the west coast and the current elevation of the island, the landscape evolution model is optimized by constraining the erosion law parameters and ratios of sediment loss. The results include a best-fit landscape evolution model, which features two major periods of uplift and erosion during the Late Cretaceous and the middle to late Cenozoic. The model supports suggestions from previous studies that most of the high topography of the island was constructed since the middle to late Miocene, and on the central plateau the erosion has not reached an equilibrium with the high uplift rates in the late Cenozoic. Our models also indicate that over the geological time scale, a significant portion of materials eroded from Madagascar was not archived in the offshore basin, possibly consumed by chemical weathering, the intensity of which might have varied with climate.
