The paper describes the monitoring of phytosanitary conditions in different regions Almaty region (Kazakhstan) and demonstrates large population cruciferous fleas (Phyllotreta cruciferae) on rapeseed plants, which reaches 7-9 spec./m2, exceeding economic injury level (3-5 spec./m2). disease is observed to spread wheat barley seeds. Proceeding from this, study aims develop effective protection m...

Bihar hairy caterpillar (Spilosoma obliqua) is a sporadic, polyphagous and voracious foliage feeder attacking several host species of different families. Its impact more pronounced in certain Cruciferae family, notably cabbage. The goal the current study was to identify methods for pest control that are efficient, economical, sustainable order combat infestation on research conducted measure ef...

We studied medicinal and food plant species, recording an extraordinary number of species and uses in Castilla-La Mancha, Murcia and Valencia in Spain. Focusing on two demographically distinct regions - Castilla-La Mancha and Lower Segura Valley. A high proportion of the flora (20 to 30 %) is known for its medicinal properties, and, interestingly, a high number of medicinal-food plants (5 to 7 ...

In this paper the effect of herbivory on the seed production of Moricandia moricandioides (Cruciferae), an annual species living in arid habitats of southeastern Spain, is analysed. Firstly, the flowering and fruiting phenology and the composition and structure of the pollinator guild is described, in order to compare the overall effect of mutualistic species vs. that of antagonistic species on...

Mature pollen grains of 295 angiosperm species were screened by epifluorescence microscopy for a marker that denotes the mode of cytoplasmic inheritance. We used the DNA fluorochrome DAPI (4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole) for pollen cell staining. The presence or absence of fluorescence of cytoplasmic DNA in the generative cell or sperm cells was examined in each species. The species examined rep...

To estimate the evolutionary history of the mustard family (Brassicaceae or Cruciferae), we sampled 113 species, representing 101 of the roughly 350 genera and 17 of the 19 tribes of the family, for the chloroplast gene ndhF. The included accessions increase the number of genera sampled over previous phylogenetic studies by four-fold. Using parsimony, likelihood, and Bayesian methods, we recons...
