the target of this study was to investigate the possibility of mdf productionfrom eucalyptus camaldulensis wood. mdf fibers were produced applying threelevels of steaming time. laboratory mdf boards were produced using thegenerated fibers and different pressing temperature and time. physical andmechanical properties of mdf panels were measured using relevant eu testmethods and were statisticall...

This research highlights the chemical composition, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative activities of essential oils from leaves of Ocimum basilicum, Ocimum americanum, Hyptis spicigera, Lippia multiflora, Ageratum conyzoides, Eucalyptus camaldulensis and Zingiber officinale. Essential oils were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and gas chromatography-flame ioniz...

The aim of this study was to assess the effects five eucalyptus species (Eucalyptus camaldulensis, E. leucoxylon, astringens, sideroxylon, and lehmannii), harvested in spring, autumn, or winter from two Tunisian arboretums, on vitro rumen fermentation methanogenesis. Batch cultures were performed determine kinetics end-product formation after 24 h incubation. foliage sideroxylon lehmannii showe...

Spore counts, species composition and richness of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, and soil glomalin contents were evaluated in a soil contaminated with Zn, Cu, Cd and Pb after rehabilitation by partial replacement of the contaminated soil with non-contaminated soil, and by Eucalyptus camaldulensis planting with and without Brachiaria decumbens sowing. These rehabilitation procedures were compared...

Endophytic bacteria were isolated from stems of Eucalyptus spp (Eucalyptus citriodora, E. grandis, E. urophylla, E. camaldulensis, E. torelliana, E. pellita, and a hybrid of E. grandis and E. urophylla) cultivated at two sites; they were characterized by RAPD and amplified rDNA restriction analysis (ARDRA). Endophytic bacteria were more frequently isolated from E. grandis and E. pellita. The 76...

Leaf blight and defoliation caused by Cylindrocladium pteridis is one of the main leaf diseases found in Brazilian eucalypt plantations in warm and high rainfall regions. The inter and intraspecific variability in the intensity of defoliation indicate that your control can be achieved by planting resistant genotypes. In order to guide breeding programs and to predict the stability of resistance...

A differential pattern in the RAPD profile of Eucalyptus F1 natural hybrids FRI-4 (E. terticornis x E. camaldulensis), FRI-5 (E. camaldulensis X E. tereticornis) and controlled reciprocal crosses FRI-14 (E. torelliana X E. citriodora) along with their parental combinations was assessed through Polymerase Chain Reaction using commercially available primers. After electrophoresis of PCR product t...

Eucalyptus is a diverse genus of flowering trees with more than 700 genotypic species which are mostly native to Australia. We selected 19 wild provenances of Eucalyptus camaldulensis grown in Australia, compared their growth rate and drought tolerance and determined the protein levels of plasma membrane aquaporins (PIPs). There was a positive relationship between the drought tolerance and PIP ...

Reduction of migration of fecal coliforms (FC) and streptococci (FS) by limiting the leaching in effluent-irrigated soil was tested in lysimeters packed with quartz sand without or with added biosolids compost or with one of two clayey soils. The 200-L, 70-cm-deep lysimeters were either planted with a Eucalyptus camaldulensis or an Oroblanco citrus tree (in the sand only), or not planted. The E...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of contaminated soil with lead and chromium using three species trees Platanus orientalis, Eucalyptus camaldulensis, Populus nigra as a remediation tool which considers priority restoring method keep healthy support life system for all organisms. The experiment concentrations Pb (200,400, 600 mg.kg-1) levels Cr (100, 200, 300 along control. result...
