Manifestation of infectious pathologies in fishes usually increases in environments where organic wastes are disposed. Specimens of Mugil platanus Günther, 1880 and water samples collected at three points of the Tramandaí river were analyzed during a one year period. The macroscopic observation revealed ulcerations in the caudal peduncle area covered with a mass of amorphous and whitened tissue...

The identification of mutants in model plant species has led to the isolation of the floral homeotic function genes that play crucial roles in flower organ specification. However, floral homeotic C-function genes are rarely studied in basal eudicots. Here, we report the isolation and characterization of the AGAMOUS (AG) orthologous gene (PaAG) from a basal eudicot London plane tree (Platanus ac...

The plant pathogenic fungus Ceratocystis fimbriata f. platani attacks Platanus species (London plane, oriental plane and American sycamore) and has killed tens of thousands of plantation trees and street trees in the eastern United States, southern Europe and Modesto, California. Nuclear and mitochondrial DNA fingerprints and alleles of eight polymorphic microsatellite markers of isolates of C....

The aim of this paper is to analyze the mechanical properties Robinia pseudoacacia L. (black locust), Platanus × hybrida Brot. (London plane), Ulmus pumila (Siberian elm), and Populus alba (white poplar), estimated using ultrasound wave equipment (USLab y Sylvatest Duo) impact (Microsecond Timer) on standing trees, felled logs specimens obtained from different parts trees. Bending strength, axi...

The purpose of this study was to present an application the artificial neural network (ANN) that predicts bonding strength glulam manufactured from plane tree (Platanus orientalis L.) wood layers adhered with a combination modified starch adhesive and UF resin. Bonding measured at different weight ratios containing values nano-zinc oxide as additive under conditions press temperature time. As p...

Arbutus andrachne and Platanus orientalis grow naturally in Turkey. They do not occur in stands but can be seen as solitary trees. A. andrachne is seen in coastal parts of Anatolia, whereas P. orientalis can be found from west to the east of Turkey, mostly in river banks. Lipophilic extractives, hydrophilic extractives, and suberin monomers from Arbutus andrachne and Platanus orientalis bark wa...

this research was carried out in a reforest at shirvanagriculturecollegein two years (2005-2007). the aim of this research was to determine of canopy interception loss, throughfall and stemflow. four trees species were used including pinus nigra, cupressus sempervirens, robinia pseudacacia and platanus orientalis with three replications. the results showed that the amount of canopy interception...

We report here the whole-genome shotgun sequence of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens strain UASWS BA1, isolated from inner wood tissues of a decaying Platanus × acerifolia tree. This strain proved to be antagonistic to several plant pathogenic fungi and oomycetes and can be developed as a biological control agent in agriculture.
