In Egypt, the River Red Gum (Eucalyptus camaldulensis) is a well-known tree and is highly appreciated by the rural and urban dwellers. The role of Eucalyptus trees in the ecology of Cryptococcus neoformans is documented worldwide. The aim of this survey was to show the prevalence of C. neoformans during the flowering season of E. camaldulensis at the Delta region in Egypt. Three hundred and ele...

Background Eucalyptus camaldulensis is a widely planted tree species in India, because of its rapid growth and adaptability to dry regions. Genetic improvement through informed breeding of E. camaldulensis largely depends on availability of molecular markers, linkage maps and genome information. Microsatellite markers, also called as simple sequence repeats (SSRs) have wide application due to t...

We studied litterfall dynamic of tree plantations in Dez River floodplain, at 14 to 15 years old. The plantations consist of Populus euphratica Oliv., Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehnh., E. microtheca F. Muell, Acacia farnesiana (L.) Willd., A. salicina Lindl., A. saligna (Labill.) H. Wendl., A. stenophylla Benth. and Dalbergia sissoo Roxb. Litterfall was different between the tree species, and le...

A set of over 8000 Diversity Arrays Technology (DArT) markers was tested for its utility in high-resolution population and phylogenetic studies across a range of Eucalyptus taxa. Small-scale population studies of Eucalyptus camaldulensis, Eucalyptus cladocalyx, Eucalyptus globulus, Eucalyptus grandis, Eucalyptus nitens, Eucalyptus pilularis and Eucalyptus urophylla demonstrated the potential of...

the cowpea seed beetle, callosobruchus maculatus (fab.) (coleoptera: chrysomelidae: bruchinae) is one of the major pests infesting stored pulses and is distributed worldwide. in this research, efficiency of plant extracts from eucalyptus globulus labill. and eucalyptus camaldulensis dehnh. were tested against the cowpea seed beetle for its antifeedant activity. several experiments were designed...
