Cerastium candidissimum Correns is an endangered species. Nevertheless, its ornamental characteristics make it ideal candidate for commercial use as a new and landscape plant. As there are no references to the in vitro propagation of this species, present research aims comparatively investigate potential that may have three different populations plant, from Mounts Parnassos (PS), Parnitha (PR),...

A significant challenge in community ecology is the establishment of ecological baselines, which permit evaluation variations dynamics at different temporal and spatial scales. To our best knowledge, few studies have been conducted forest openings Mt. Parnon to establish a baseline for future monitoring. Hence, floristic study herbaceous plant species composition, diversity, cover, biomass was ...

Climatic warming is associated with organisms breeding earlier in the season than is typical for their species. In some species, however, response to warming is more complex than a simple advance in the timing of all life history events preceding reproduction. Disparities in the extent to which different components of the reproductive phenology of organisms vary with climatic warming indicate t...

Question: How do different regeneration scenarios shape species composition at two stages of plant community establishment (emergence and net recruitment) in an early succession? Location: Northern Spain. Methods: In a recently ploughed field, we created eight regene­ ration scenarios with light, water and nitrogen availability (five replicates each). Seedlings of all species were monitored fro...

Little is known about the long-term contribution of cover crops to weed management in tillage- and herbicide-based systems. Do mainly filter species capable setting seeds during fallow period? Can crop biomass productivity explain differences suppression among species? Does reduced seedbank density translate into lower higher productivity? Soil samples (0–15 cm) were collected 2018 after termin...

The issue of how people acquire knowledge in the course of individual development has fascinated researchers for thousands of years. Perhaps the earliest recorded effort to put forth a theoretical account belongs to Plato, who famously advocated the idea that knowledge of many abstract categories (e.g., ‘‘equivalence’’) is innate. Although Plato argued with his contemporaries who advocated the ...
