In a randomized, placebo-controlled double-blind study, neurophysiological methods were used to determine the effects of Neurexan on patients’ psychophysiological con dition. The administration of Neurexan was found to help them to cope better with acute stress situations. The homeopathic combination medication Neurexan consists of the components passionflower (Passiflora incarnata), oats (Aven...

Despite the fact that dry grassland vegetation on ultramafics has been object of continuous research in previous centuries, there remains a knowledge gap regard to initial stages ultramafic substrates. The Stipa-dominated grasslands Serbia and Kosovo representing various phases overgrowth rocks were present study. A total 213 relev?s made different steppe-like Stipa species-dominated including ...

Thirteen species of Pyrrhalta Joannis, 1865 with black elytron are reviewed. A key to species, photographs of aedeagus and habitus are provided. Pyrrhalta qianana sp. n. is described from Guizhou, China. Pyrrhalta martensi Medvedev & Sprecher-Uebersax, 1999 is newly recorded from China (Tibet).

Sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) and inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers were used to assess the genetic diversity within and among 15 natural populations of Stipa bungeana from the Loess Plateau of China. Using 15 SRAP primers, 504 (99.80%) polymorphic loci were detected, and 372 polymorphic loci (96.12%) were identified using 15 ISSR primers. At the species level, the S....

Enclosure is an effective strategy for enhancing soil carbon sequestration in the desert steppe. Soil organic (SOC) and its stock during changes plant community influence fertility global cycle. We studied SOC along with six types steppe of Inner Mongolia, northern China. The goal this study was to explore differences among communities while accounting effects environmental factors. collected 3...

We use a combination of phylogenetic analysis of mtDNA sequences and multivariate morphometrics to investigate the phylogeography and systematics of the Egyptian cobra (Naja haje) species complex. Phylogenetic analysis of mitochondrial haplotypes reveals a highly distinct clade of haplotypes from the Sudano–Sahelian savanna belt of West Africa, and that the haplotypes of Naja haje arabica form ...

Microsatellite markers, also known as SSRs (Simple Sequence Repeats), have proved to be excellent tools for identifying variety and determining genetic relationships. A set of 127 SSR markers was used to analyze genetic similarity in twenty five Coffea arabica varieties. These were composed of nineteen commercially important Brazilians and six interspecific hybrids of Coffea arabica, Coffea can...

Coffea arabica L. is an important crop in several developing countries. Despite its economic importance, minimal transcriptome data are available for fruit tissues, especially during fruit development where several compounds related to coffee quality are produced. To understand the molecular aspects related to coffee fruit and grain development, we report a large-scale transcriptome analysis of...
