Forests experience disturbances, such as fire, that affect their functioning, structure, and species composition. The objective of this work was to compare the diversity forest structure at sites affected by different degrees fire severity, 9 years after a event. We used differenced Normalized Burn Ratio (dNBR) index. Vegetation sampled in three severity levels: high (HS), moderate (MS), low (L...

pistacia atlantica subsp. mutica is one of the most valuable forest tree species in iran that has been severely exploited for a long time. therefore, understanding the genetic diversity of different populations can be an important step towards the development and restoration of the habitat of this invaluable tree species. in this study, in order to study the genetic diversity, 10 populations in...

The soil fauna plays an important function over the processes of organic matter decomposition, nutrient cycling, ground aeration and fertility. Thus, studies on the composition and structure of such communities are important, considering moreover the lack of information in different regions of Brazil and mainly related to the state of Piauí. This study aimed to evaluate the density and diversit...

in order to study genetic diversity in 178 accessions of lentil (lens culinaris medik) originated from warm climate regions of iran, this experiment was conducted in 2009 at research farm of the national plant gene bank of iran in karaj. experimental design was an augmented experiment with six blocks and each block containes 30 accessions. accessions were compared with promising lines including...

conclusions this is the first research in comparing two genetic marker systems in p. variotti. we were prompted to explore polymorphisms utility in p. variotti with a look at using germplasm screening mapping of genome and strain improvement programs. results both systems discriminated 20 isolates of p. variotii successfully but were different in the amount of detectable polymorphism. using clu...
