For determination of grazing capacity, information of forage quality is essential which is influenced by various factors. The main objective of this research was investigation on effects of species, phenological stages, and life form on values of forage quality indices of six range species. Species were two grasses (Bromus tomentellus and Dactylis glomerata), two forbs (Ferula ovina and Coronil...

Preference value means livestock preference to eat some plants relative to other plants or species. Accordingly, by studying the preference values, the range managers could determine the rangelands grazing capacity to achieve the optimum performance of livestock and to guarantee the stability of rangeland ecosystem. The objective of this study was to determine the preference value of perennial ...

(1) Background: The growing demand for developing new methods of degraded land remediation is linked to the need improve soil environment, including post-industrial soils. Biological such as aided phytostabilisation technique are most common applied achieve effective remediation. This study aimed determine technical potential using novel or yet not used amendments, blast furnace slag (BFS) and ...

Understanding the population genetic processes driving evolution of plant pathogens is central interest to pathologists and evolutionary biologists alike. However, most studies focus on host-pathogen associations in agricultural systems high environmental homogeneity less known about structure pathogen populations infecting wild plants natural ecosystems. We performed parallel sampling two path...
