[Context.] Gaia is limited in the optical down to G~21 mag so it essential understand biases introduced by a magnitude-limited sample on spatial distribution studies. [Aims.] We ascertain how incompleteness observations of young clusters affects local analysis tool INDICATE and subsequently perceived properties these clusters. [Methods.] created mock cluster catalogue from synthetic dataset usi...

ABSTRACT A new carmovirus was isolated from Angelonia plants (Angelonia angustifolia), with flower break and mild foliar symptoms, grown in the United States and Israel. The virus, for which the name Angelonia flower break virus (AnFBV) is proposed, has isometric particles, approximately 30 nm in diameter. The experimental host range was limited to Nicotiana species, Schizanthus pinnatus, Myoso...

The genus Otidea is one of the more conspicuous members of the Pyronemataceae, with high species diversity in hemiboreal and boreal forests. The genus is morphologically coherent and in previous higher-level multi-gene analyses it formed a highly supported monophyletic group. Species delimitation within Otidea is controversial and much confusion has prevailed in the naming of taxa. To provide a...

Abstract Traditionally managed mesotrophic species‐rich upland hay meadows conforming to the National Vegetation Classification (NVC) MG3b are one of rarest grassland types in United Kingdom, with substantial declines botanical diversity over last 50 years. Intensive spring grazing, earlier cut dates and increases soil fertility cause a decline characteristic positive indicator species meadows,...

Background: Plants are the basic source of medicines to treat and remediate different health concerns. The current study was aimed evaluate knowledge folk medicinal Flora in Sellay Pattay valley, district Malakand, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. Methods: Ethnomedicinal carried out document indigenous about use plants. data gathered through interviews with randomly chosen informants field. obtain...

The effects of various timber management histories on the dynamics of riparian forests was analyzed to determine if the length of time since timber harvest and the width of the riparian buffer zone had a measurable effect on variables such as canopy cover, solar radiation, the ratio of hardwood to conifer dominance, and the occurrence of individual species. Ten sites were sampled in the coastal...

Recent studies all indicated that both the affinities and subdivision of Boraginaceae s.str. are unsatisfactorily resolved. Major open issues are the placement and affinities of Boraginaceae s.str. in Boraginales and the major clades of the family, with especially the large tribes Cynoglosseae and Eritrichieae repeatedly retrieved as non-monophyletic groups, and the doubtful monophyly of severa...

The angiosperm family Boraginaceae includes ca. 1600 species distributed among ca. 110 genera. Some floral features are constant within the family, but many vegetative, floral, pollen, and nutlet traits vary. Utilizing 224 species of Boraginaceae and related taxa, five matrices were constructed with various combinations of morphological characters, three chloroplast DNA regions, and one nuclear...
