citrus blast is one of the important diseases of citrus in north of iran. the disease causes considerable damage during and immediately after the cold seasons. the causal agents have epiphytic survival on diverse weeds during spring and summer. during 2009-2010, samples were collected from several candidate weed plants including: poa annua, phalaris canariensis, sorghum halepense, cynodon dacty...

We studied the rates of seed removal by different granivores, in different microsites, at different times, in a Patagonian shrub steppe in South America. Granivory rates of exotic (Phalaris canariensis) and native (Mulinum spinosum) seed species were an order of magnitude lower than those reported for another cool desert from North America with comparable climatic conditions. Insects and rodent...

Purpose of the study: to study effect oil pollution on morphological parameters cereal grasses: canary grass, timothy grass and meadow fescue. Tasks: assessment impact soils seed germination, growth development studied species by parameters; analysis variability indicators. Oil-contaminated high-moor peat was used as a substrate. Objects research: seeds Phleum pratense L, 1753, fescue Festuca p...

In this study, the information on distribution, biology, morphology, diseases that it transmits and suggestion on pest management strategies of “pigeon fly” Pseudolynchia canariensis (Macquart, 1839) (Diptera: Hippoboscidae) were also discussed. Material of the study P. canariensis were sampled from especially ventilation windows of the roof, and on the rats which was caught by sticky traps in ...

Abstract Rising consumer concerns with synthetic drugs to treat non-communicable diseases (NCDs) have promoted a shift towards using natural biological active constituents that offer similar health benefits. Hairless canary seed ( Phalaris canariensis L ) is an emerging crop traditionally used in Mexico NCDs. Peptides liberated during simulated digestion of protein are believed be responsible f...

Auxins, mainly indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), play a critical role in numerous plant growth processes, including embryo development, root and flower development, vascular differentiation, stem elongation, apical dominance, and tropic responses. Charles Darwin and his son Francis performed some of the earliest work relating to the effect of auxin on plant growth with their experiments on phototropi...
