No full text<p> <i>Sedum triangulisepalum</i> T.S. Liu & N.J. Chung ex T.C. Hsu & S.W. Chung, <i>sp. nov.</i></p> <p> [“ <i>Sedum triangulisepalum</i> T.S. Liu & N.J. Chung (1977: 21, as <i>triangulosepalum</i>)”, <i>nom. inval.</i>; “ <i>Sedum triangulisepalum</i> T.S. Liu & N.J. Chung ex H.W. Lin (1999: 102, as <i>triangulosepalum</i>)”, <i>nom. inval.</i>; “ <i>Sedum triangulisepalum</i> T.S. Liu & N.J. Chung ex S.W. Chung ” in Chen <i>et al.</i> (2017: 329, as <i>triangulosepalum</i>), <i>nom. inval.</i>].</p> <p> <b>Type:</b> — TAIWAN. Hualien County: Hsiulin Township, Lo-ma-wan Shan, 1800 m elev., 15 June 1973, <i>N.J. Chung 280</i> (holotype: NTUF!, barcode: F00008307; isotypes: NTUF!, eight sheets, barcodes: F00008308–F00008315).</p> <p> <b>Diagnosis:</b> — <i>Sedum triangulisepalum</i> is similar to <i>S. truncatistigmum</i> T.S. Liu & N.J. Chung (1977: 23) in sharing epiphytic life-form, alternate and ±flattened leaves and fused calyx, while the former is readily distinguished in having longer calyx (1.5–2.0 vs. 0.8–1.0 mm) that are only fused at the base (vs. nearly entirely fused).</p> <p> <b>Morphological descriptions and illustrations:</b> —This species has been described by Liu & Chung (1977: 21) and illustrated by Tang & Huang (1989: 27, pl. 15, as <i>Sedum microsepalum</i>), Chen <i>et al.</i> (2017: 329) and Ito <i>et al.</i> (2017: 11, fig. 1D).</p> <p> <b>Distribution and ecology:</b> — <i>Sedum triangulisepalum</i> is endemic in Taiwan, where it occurs in the northern and eastern portions of the main island and usually grows on tree trunks in montane cloud forests at 500–2000 m elev. (Liu & Chung 1977; Chen <i>et al.</i> 2017; Ito <i>et al.</i> 2017).</p> <p> <b>Etymology:</b> —The specific epithet is composed of two Latin elements: <i>triangulus</i>, triangular, and <i>sepalum</i>, sepal, referring to its triangular calyx lobes. It should be spelt as “ <i>triangulisepalum</i> ” instead of “ <i>triangulosepalum</i> ” as originally published by Liu & Chung (1977) according to Art. 60.10 of the ICN.</p> <p> <b>Note:</b> —Two gatherings, “ <i>Suzuki s.n.</i> ” collected from Wulai and “ <i>Chuang 280</i> ” collected from Lomawanshan, were cited under <i>Sedum triangulisepalum</i> by Liu & Chung (1977), and “ <i>Chuang 280</i> ” is presumably a typo of “ <i>Chung 280</i> ” since the “ <i>N.J. Chung 280</i> ” gathering, collected by the second original author and currently preserved in NTUF, matches well with the data given in the original publication (Liu & Chung 1977). There are nine duplicates of <i>Chung 280</i>, including one (barcode: F00008307) labelled as “ holotype ” and the others (barcodes: F00008308–F00008315) as “isotype”. Although these labels could not be archived as the legitimate designation of types as they are not effectively published (see Art. 7.10 of the ICN), they supposedly reflect the original author’s intention and are thus adopted here. Images of all type materials are available in the “Plants of Taiwan ” database [http://tai2.ntu.edu.tw].</p>Published as part of <i>Hsu, Tian-Chuan & Chung, Shih-Wen, 2022, Validation of the name Sedum triangulosepalum (Crassulaceae), pp. 215-216 in Phytotaxa 547 (2)</i> on page 215, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.547.2.10, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/6571375">http://zenodo.org/record/6571375</a>

The political role of the people's liberation army 1949-1973
Full text linkThis thesis is to study the political role of the People's Liberation Army from the approach of structure and function. The framework of the thesis consists of three major parts, first, the influence of Chinese traditional political culture on, and the formation of, the political role of the PL A; second, the influence of domestic political struggles and external military conflicts on the development of the political role of the PLA; and the third, the analysis of the transition of the PLA's political role from the structure and personnel arrangements of the CCPCC Within the above-mentioned three scopes, this thesis make a thorough discussion on the following: (1) The relationship between the structure of the PRC and the formation of the PLA's political role; (2) How has ideology influenced the army's political role; (3) What is Mao's viewpoint and his influence on the development of the army's political role; (4) What is the link between the army and the party, and how has this developed; (6) What accounts for the expansion of the PLA's political functions; (7) What is the influence of political factional struggles on the PLA's political role; (8) Is it political institution or military institution that controls the recruitment of the military elite; (9) What are the disparities between the military elite in handling international conflicts and what are their political considerations; (10) What is the Party's position in the army; (11) How have the Party’s important meetings and personnel arrangements influenced the rise and fall of the PLA's political role
A new ‘forma specialis’ of Fusarium solani causing leaf yellowing of Phalaenopsis
No full textThe pathogenicity of 35 Fusarium solani isolates obtained from diseased leaves of greenhouse-grown Phalaenopsis plants in Taiwan was tested on different orchids, including Phalaenopsis sp., Cymbidium spp., Oncidium sp., Dendrobium sp. and Cattleya sp., plus pea (Pisum sativum), chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum indicum) and cucurbit [melon (Cucumis melo) and cucmber (C. sativus)] plants. Isolates of F. solani from Phalaenopsis spp. caused severe leaf yellowing on Phalaenopsis and mild symptoms on Cymbidium spp., but no visual symptoms on Oncidium sp., Dendrobium sp., Cattleya sp., pea, chrysanthemum or melon. Fusarium solani isolates collected from Phalaenopsis, pea and cucurbits were molecularly characterized by internal transcribed spacer (ITS), intergenic spacer (IGS) and β-tubulin gene analyses. Phylogenetic trees constructed by distance and parsimony methods indicated that isolates from Phalaenopsis were grouped into one type based on ITS, IGS and β-tubulin sequences with high bootstrap value (> 84%) support, compared to ‘formae speciales’ of F. solani from the other hosts. These analyses show that isolates of F. solani from Phalaenopsis are distinct from F. solani isolates from other hosts in Taiwan. Therefore, it is proposed that F. solani isolates that incite Phalaenopsis leaf yellowing be designated F. solani f. sp. phalaenopsis
