Fertilizer amendments can impact weed populations in a variety of ways. This study evaluated the effects of 12 year-long applications of different fertilization systems on size and composition of the weed seed bank in a conventionally managed maize monoculture field. Fertilization systems included all factorial combinations of two dairy cattle slurry rates, three vegetable, fruit and garden was...

sideration as DNA methylation patterns may be reversible and changeable under certain physiological and pathological conditions. This idea is supported by the fact that differentiated cells are still potent enough to be converted into iPS cells, presumably coupling with altered DNA methylation pattern. Beyond canonical epigenomic modification, the current view of the epigenome includes histone ...

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy was used for examination of free radicals in thermally treated vaselinum album (VA). Thermal treatment in hot air as sterilization process was tested. Conditions of thermal sterilization were chosen according to the pharmaceutical norms. Vaselinum album was heated at the following conditions (T--temperature, t--time): T = 160°C and t = 120 min,...
