Inventorying of agro-biodiversity of Province Gligit-Balistan Pakistan

The current baseline study of agro-diversity was carried out in the different seasons of the year 2013. The study area was thoroughly surveyed throughout the year to ensure the collection of maximum agro diversity. The current study focus to provide inventory of 74 cultivated flowering plant diversity exists in the study area. For this purpose […]

Morphological variability survey of cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. ISC55 in liquid mixotrophe treatment

The variety of phenotypes of cyanobacteria is accompanied by morphological plasticity changing accordingly to different environmental or culture conditions. In this research, the effect of different treatments of liquid mixotrophe on morphological responses, structural changes and biometrical of Anabaena sp. ISC55 were studied. This investigation was performed in time periods of weekly and daily. Due […]

Effects of planting-hole size, composting animal manure and sack on survival and growth of Eucaliptus camaldulensis, Ziziphus spina- christi and Pistasia atlantica planted in Mehran Plain, Iran

This study tested three methods thought to maintain soil moisture availability and thereby improve the performance of three species (Eucaliptus camaldulensis, Ziziphus spina-christi and Pistasia atlantica) when planted in permanent landscape of Mehran plain: increased planting-hole size, composting animal manure and sack addition. Seedlings of the three species were grown in two planting-hole sizes (30*30*30 […]

Fruit morphology of the genus Rumex L. (Polygonaceae) in Iran

The genus Rumex with about 23 species is one of the most important species of the family Polygonaceae in Iran. In order to reveal the relationship of Rumex species we used fruit morphological characters including valve and achene features. Valves size and shape are variable among species. All taxa have trigonous achene but their size […]

First observations of the macrozoobenthos biodiversity of Oran coastal area, Algeria

This study allows us to have an overall idea about the qualitative and quantitative status of macrozoobenthos that is rich and diverse. It is highly endangered due to human activities. The development of actions to promote conservation, including the establishment of a monitoring system and monitoring of key species is essential. The inventory macrobenthic species […]

Artemisia herba-alba complex: morphological diversity and molecular uniformity

A study aiming to clarify the taxonomic status of the species in Iran known as A. herba-alba (or A. sieberi) and A. kermanensis, and to illustrate their relationships to A. aucheri was performed using morphological and molecular ITS (internal transcribed spacer) and ETS (external transcribed spacer) data. Our results showed that despite their differences in […]

A mini review: biodiversity, life form and vegetation of flora in the Alpine zone

The Alpine and Arctic biomes cover 16% of the earth’s surface area. Because of the importance of alpine flora, this review discuses on the results of different studies on the Biodiversity and phytogeography of the alpine flora. The Alpine Region has such a rich and diverse biodiversity. Alpine vegetation is defined zone of vegetation between […]
