Passive Recovery of Vegetation after Herbivore Eradication on Santa Cruz Island, California
Understanding how insular ecosystems recover or are restructured after the eradication of an invasive species is crucial in evaluating conservation success and prioritizing island conservation efforts. Globally, herbivores have been removed from 762 islands, most with limited active restoration actions following eradication. Few studies have documented the effects of invasive herbivore removal ...
متن کاملEctoparasites of the island fox on Santa Cruz Island.
The ectoparasite fauna for island foxes (Urocyon littoralis) on Santa Cruz Island (California, USA) in April (wet season) and September (dry season) 1998 was evaluated. Three taxa of ectoparasites were identified. These were fleas (Pulex irritans), lice (Neotrichodectes mephitidis), and ticks (Ixodes pacificus). Ectoparasite abundances varied seasonally. Typical of insular endemic species, isla...

متن کاملAnti-mutagenic Effects of Fennel Plant (Foeniculum vulgare Mill) Seeds and Pure Anethole: An in vitro Test on Mice
In the present study Willbutrin (bupropion hydrochloride) was employed to induce mutagenic/ carcinogenic features in mice, i.e. undesirable cell division and DNA damage. The repair actions of fennel dry seeds and its extracted bioactive substance anethole supplied to Willbutrin-treatedmice in a dietary regime were investigated. Male Swiss albino mice (25-30gm) orally received Willbutrin dose (0...
متن کاملPhytotoxicity and stimulatory impacts of nanosized and bulk titanium dioxide on fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill).
The objective of the this study was to compare concentrations of nanosized TiO2 at 0, 5, 20, 40, 60 and 80 mg L(-1) with bulk TiO2 for phytotoxic and stimulatory effects on fennel seed germination and early growth stage. After 14 d of seed incubation, germination percentage highly improved following exposure to 60 ppm nanosized TiO2. Similar positive effects occurred in terms of shoot dry weigh...
