evolutionary origin and phylogenetic relationships among fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis isolates in iran and their relationship with nonpathogenic isolates

پژمردگی فوزاریومی خربزه و طالبی با عامل fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis از بیماری های مهم قارچی در مناطق رشد این گیاهان می باشد. جدایه های f. oxysporum از گیاهان و خاک ریزوسفر متعلق به پنج استان مهم تولیدکننده ی خربزه و طالبی جداسازی شد و بر پایه ی بیماری زایی در ارقام افتراقی، گروه های سازگاری رویشی (vegetative compatibility groups)، توالی سنجی ناحیه ی جداکننده ی بین ژنی دی اِن اِی ریبوزومی (n...

Global patterns in seed size

Aim To provide the first global quantification of the slope and shape of the latitudinal gradient in seed mass, and to determine whether global patterns in seed mass are best explained by growth form, vegetation type, seed dispersal syndrome, or net primary productivity (NPP).

Relationships among the seed yield from small and large plots in common beans

The scaling of seed size

1. Rees & Venable (2007; Journal of Ecology , 95 , 926–936) critically evaluated ideas of Moles et al. to explain the cross-species positive correlation between offspring size and adult size, arguing that they had misinterpreted the theoretical literature, and used cross-species patterns to constrain the evolution of life-histories. 2. In a reply to Rees & Venable, Westoby et al. (2009; Journal...

Activated carbons prepared from peanut shell and sunflower seed shell for high CO2 adsorption

Biomass wastes are considered as cost-effective and sustainable precursors to prepare activated carbons for CO2 capture. In this study, two biomass-derived activated carbons were prepared using peanut shell and sunflower seed shell, and the optimal activated carbons were obtained at low KOH/carbon ratio of about 1. The peanut shell derived activated carbon (P-973-1.00) and sunflower seed shell ...
