growth inhibition of aspergillus fumigatus,aspergillus flavus and fusarum solani exposed to the essential oils including thyme, agastache and satureja were studied. disc diffusion method was used to evaluate the fungal growth inhibitory effects of the essential oils. minimal inhibitory concentration (mic) and minimal fungicidal concentration (mfc) of the oils were determined and compared with e...

Seed germination generally presents a peak in the next growing season after a fire. Among other factors associated with fire are the increase of soil nitrogen and changes in the pH of the soil. In this study, we addressed the question, whether or not the germination response of eight species is linked with the increase in pH and nitrogenous compounds in the germination media? We assessed the se...

Essential oils were extracted from the fruits of Coriandrum sativum L. and Foeniculum vulgare Miller var. vulgare (Miller) and assayed in vitro for antibacterial activity to Escherichia coli and Bacillus megaterium, bacteria routinely used for comparison in the antimicrobial assays, and 27 phytopathogenic bacterial species and two mycopathogenic ones responsible for cultivated mushroom diseases...

• The sympathetic innervation of the vascular tree consists of postganglionic fibers derived from the sympathetic ganglion cells in the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar regions of the sympathetic trunks. In most vascular beds the blood vessels receive their innervation from postganglionic nerves which accompany the main arterial vessels supplying the bed. Information is sparse, however, regarding...
