A novel actinobacterium strain, 2614A723(T), was isolated from rhizosphere soil of mangrove plant Acanthus ilicifolius collected at Touyuan, Wenchang, Hainan province, China. A phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain 2614A723(T) formed a distinct phyletic line in the genus Actinoallomurus, the 16S rRNA gene tree sharing similarities of 98.35%, 98.07% and 97....

the dried aerial parts of scutellaria lateriflora l. (family labiatae), have been used for many years as a domestic remedy for epilepsy, hysteria, and nervous tension states. although several phytochemical investigations have been made regarding the constituents present in this species (i. e. flavonoids, iridoids), none has been recorded concerning the cuticular wax. using thin-layer chromatogr...

the effluents of tannery industries are the major source of chromium contamination in thegroundwater. in most of the sub-urban areas ground water is the major source of drinking water. for humanbeing long term exposure to chromium is detrimental. the main objective of this study is to assess thegroundwater contamination and to adopt appropriate methods and to develop suitable techniques either ...

Living systems, whether organs or entire organisms, display various forms of morphological invariance. Why? These phenomena are studied here from the Proto-Cognitive perspective, according to which evolution proceeds by processing information about the environment. The evolution of constancy, uniformity and symmetry is studied in detail. The study later focuses on the invariances of the plant's...
