The ever-increasing number of introduced species profoundly threatens global biodiversity. While the ecological and evolutionary consequences invasive alien are receiving increasing attention, their economic impacts have largely remained understudied, especially in France. Here, we aimed at providing a general overview monetary losses (damages caused by) expenditures (management of) associated ...

In order to better understand the relationship between vegetation communities and water table in the uppermost portions (ephemeral–intermittent streams) of headwater systems, seasonal plot-based field characterizations of vegetation were used in conjunction with monthly water table measurements. Vegetation, soils, and water table data were examined to determine potential indicator species of ne...

The study aimed to supplement data on a plant that was considered folk medicine of Vietnam. Morphological and microscopic anatomical characteristics this species which were adapted the frequently flooded habitat reserve studied analyzed. Alcoholic extracts each stem, leaf root part recovered using rotary evaporator. inhibitory ability bacterial strains including Bacillus cereus, B. subtilis Esc...

Results of limnological investigation of lake Ashura showed that air and water temperatures were 31.5 ± 0.25oC and 30.0 ± 0.45oC, respectively in the month of April, 2011. pH, alkalinity, conductivity, dissolved oxygen and TDS of water were 7.11 ± 0.02, 2.96 ± 0.58 meq/l, 760.67 ± 8.08 μS/cm, 7.72 ± 0.41 mg/l and 104.67 ± 1.53 mg/l, respectively. The concentration of NO3-N, SRP and SRS were 63....

The present study investigates the floral diversity of Lagos coastal environments by sampling 21 points using quadrat method. revealed two major aquatic ecosystem types (mangrove and freshwater swamp) recorded 125 species belonging to 108 genera 49 families. While Alchornea cordifolia Raphia hookeri were found as most frequent, Acalypha crenata Acrostichum aureum least abundant species. highest...
