Autecology of Zataria multiflora using principal component analysis (PCA) in Fars Province, Iran
Genus Zataria in Iran only has one species, named Zataria multiflora. This plant is known as “Broadleaf Thyme” or “Shirazi Thyme” in southern Iran. It is seen in the central part of south and southeastern Iran. To study the autecology of Z. multifora, data of vegetation cover including canopy cover percentage, density, frequency, plant height […]
Impact of landuse practices on agrobiodiversity in selected organic and conventional agroecosystems in Bulgeria
Agrobiodiversity in agroecosystems and their role for maintaining their stability in absence of chemical inputs is not sufficiently investigated in Europe. As a first step in a larger study, this investigation focused on the territory of Eastern Rhodope mountain of Bulgaria in June – September 2012. It tried to compare the impact of organic and […]
Biodiversity and seasonal dynamics of the cladoceran community in the wetlands of the Gharb and Loukkos plains in Morocco
The aim of this study was to describe the composition and structure of cladocerans of littoral areas with and without macrophytes from the wetlands in the Gharb and Loukkos plains (Morocco). Samples were taken between September 2004 and August 2005. The sampling of cladocerans and environmental variables was performed at four fixed points, using plankton […]
Coexistence of herbal forest flora with phanerophyte up-story on Chahartagh forest reserve site in Cheharmahal va Bakhtiari province
Phytosociology and forest ecosystem typology results have not been always matched. This inconsistency is greater in highly diverse forests. The current study demonstrates this concept that phanerophyte composition of up stratum in a well-protected central Zagros forest can determine the pattern and composition of herbal plants on the forest floor. More than two hundred micro […]
Population dynamics of Rotifera in Ismailia Canal, Egypt
Ismailia Canal is one of the most important tributaries of the River Nile in Egypt. The population dynamics of rotifers in three zones of Ismailia Canal were studied in spring and autumn 2011, in relation to some physical and chemical characteristics of water. A total of 40 rotifers’ species were identified, the dominant were Keratella […]
Chemical composition of essential oils of three Pistacia cultivars in Khorasan Razavi, Iran
The essential oil from leaves of Pistacia lentiscus L., an aromatic member of three Pistacia (Pistacia Vera L.) cultivars, including Kalle Ghoochi, Akbari, and Sefid that were analyzed by GC-MS. These Pistacia species have been collected from Khorasan Razavi, Iran. Constituents were identified by their mass spectra and Kovats’ indices. 1,8-cineole, α-pinene, β-pinene, β-thujene, and […]
Impact of the creation of a plantation of banana serves on the flora of Niagaramadougou in the north of Côte d’Ivoire
This work relates to the identification and the evaluation of the negative impacts and positive of the creation of banana plantations serves on the flora of the natural landscape near to the river Bandama, a locality of Niakaramadougou in the north of Côte d’Ivoire. It comprises, the analysis of eco-climatic imbalances related on creation, the […]
Effect of some abiotic factors on the concentration of β-sitosterol of Prunus Africana (Hook.f.) Kalkman in the tropical forests of Cameroon
Prunus africana is a medicinal plant which develops in the mountains of several African countries. β-sitosterol can be used as a marker for the control of the product quality of the aforementioned plant in terms of phytotherapy. Farmers and public authorities do not have information on the influence of altitude and chemical characteristics of soils […]
Evaluation of genetic diversity in weed dodder (Cuscuta epithymum L) on Northern of Iran by ISSR molecular marker
Weed dodder (Cuscuta epithymum L) is a parasitic vine that attacks the aerial parts of many shrubs, trees, and is used widely in medicine. In this study for first time in world, Inter Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) technique was employed for determine genetic diversity of 20 genotype of weed dodder from Golestan and Mazandaran provinces. […]
Evaluation of genetic diversity in weed dodder (Cuscuta epithymum L) on Northern of Iran by RAPD molecular marker
Weed dodder (Cuscuta epithymum L) is a parasitic vine that attacks the aerial parts of many shrubs, trees, and is used widely in medicine. In this study for first time in Iran, the randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) technique was employed for determine genetic diversity of 20 genotype of weed dodder from Golestan and Mazandaran […]
