Multiple linear regression (MLR), adaptive network-based fuzzy inference system–ant colony optimization algorithm hybrid (ANFIS-ACOR) and artificial neural network–multilayer perceptron (ANN-MLP) were tested to model the bending strength of Glulam (glue-laminated timber) manufactured with a plane tree (Platanus orientalis L.) wood layer adhered different weight ratios (WR) modified starch/urea ...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Recent research on the history of Platanus reveals that hybridization phenomena occurred in the central American species. This study has two goals: to help resolve the evolutive puzzle of central American Platanus, and to test the potential of real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for detecting ancient hybridization. METHODS Sequencing of a uniparental plastid DNA mark...

Background: In the present study, tolerance of plantain tree species (Platanus orientalis, Morus nigra and Ailanthus altissima) to air pollution was evaluated using Air Pollution Tolerance Index (ATPI) Anticipated Performance (API) index in Isfahan city (Iran). Methods: For this purpose, three dominant trees growing at six stations selected then sampling leaves performed, after being transferre...

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...

Objective: The present study aimed to determine the effects of Rosmarinus officinalis (R. officinalis) and Platanus orientalis(P. orientalis) extracts on asthma. Materials and Methods: We conducted a randomized, double-blind, active-comparator study to evaluate the effect of P. orientalis and R. officinalis extracts on asthmatic patients resistant to routine treatment.The subjects were randomly...
