Expression of a myriad of virulence factors and innate antibiotic resistance enables the opportunistic human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa to create intractable infections. Using a nematode model, we screened for novel inhibitors of this pathogen. Aqueous extracts of three plants, Conocarpus erectus, Callistemon viminalis and Bucida buceras, were examined for their effects on P. aeruginosa ki...

Mangrove communities are tropical systems which have fewer species than tropical forests, especially in Latin America and display a single architecture, usually lacking the various strata commonly found in other forest ecosystems. The identification of mangrove communities by orbital data is not a difficult task but the most interesting challenge is to identify themselves by the dominant specie...

Dust is the collection of fine particles solid matter, and it a major issue atmospheric pollution. are becoming pollutants urban environment due to hyperbolic manufacturing automobile These not only hazardous for human beings, but they also affect tree growth, particularly in environments. This study was designed examine changes morphological physiological traits three species seedlings (Eucaly...

The effect of automobile pollution was determined on chlorophyll content of four different tree species viz. Azadirachta indica L., Conocarpus erectus L., Guiacum officinale L.and Eucalyptus sp. growing along the roads of the city.  Significant changes in the level of chlorophyll “a”, chlorophyll “b” and total chlorophyll “a+b” were found in the leaves of fou...

Low water availability predicted under climate change is a major abiotic factor limiting plants growth and productivity. In this study greenhouse experiment was conducted on three important tree species of arid environment: Conocarpus erectus (CE), Acacia modesta (AM), Salix tetrasperma (ST). Young saplings were subjected to control (C), medium (MWD) severe soil deficit (SWD) treatments respons...
