I am a herpetologist specializing on exotic animals and plants psychology behavior. was travelling around Japan through my travels lucky to spot an interesting history use of specific type cactus. The city called Cactus City in were the community celebrating promoting health benefits eat cactus and, they managed pass bill introduce as food schools. This unusual devotion towards xerophytes, comi...

Tillandsia L. Subg. Phytarrhiza (Visiani) Baker (Bromeliaceae) is a distinctive group of about 35 epiphytic species. These exhibit a range of habits from xeric to mesic. The evolutionary relationships of the contrasting adaptations need to be established here as well as in the subfamily as a whole. Relations between the subgenus and other tillandsioids are problematical and phylogenetic reconst...

Drought is one of the abiotic stresses that have a significant impact on agricultural growth across world. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) inoculation in rice plants may be viable and environmentally acceptable method sustaining development yield drought-stressed plants. The current study focused alleviation drought early stages variety CO 51 using PGPR isolated from rhizosphere xer...

Xerophytes in desert improve their fitness under stress through the development of stems and branches. However, little is known about changes structure function endophytic microorganisms response to interactions between plants environment. In this study, we analyzed lignification indices young mature branches during a typical xerophyte, Nitraria tangutorum, combined 16S ITS high-throughput sequ...

Palynological investigations in the Orce Archaeological Zone (OAZ) (Guadix-Baza Basin, Granada, Spain), Venta Micena 1 (VM1), Barranco León (BL) and Fuente Nueva 3 (FN3) are presented. This archaeological region is connected with first Homo populations Western Eurasia during Early Pleistocene. The VM1 pollen record characterized by Ephedra, to a lesser extent, Pinus, Juniperus evergreen Quercus...

Besides water relations, nutrient allocation, and stoichiometric traits are fundamental feature of shrubs. Knowledge concerning the nutrient stoichiometry of xerophytes is essential to predicting the biogeochemical cycling in desert ecosystems as well as to understanding the homoeostasis and variability of nutrient traits in desert plants. Here, we focused on the temperate desert species Reaumu...
