Corticolous bryophytes, that is, mosses and liverworts that inhabit tree trunks, represent an important component of plant diversity in temperate ecosystems, but little is known of their ecology in managed forests. In this study, we quantified community composition and habitat differentiation of corticolous bryophytes in Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) plantations subjected t...

This article examines the biology, ecology, phenology, lifestyle of main pests that directly affect growth and development existing seed legume orchards in Uzbekistan, according to studies conducted different regions country 2014-2019, dividing plant into three types. These xylophages damage roots, trunks branches trees; phyllophages - infect leaves; as well carpophagous scientifically based fr...

Preservation of the optic nerves is an important issue in the resection of tuberculum sellae meningiomas. We report the case of a patient whose optic nerve was penetrated by a tuberculum sellae meningioma. During surgery, a bulging tumor was found to penetrate the right optic nerve. The tumor was gross totally removed, including tumors bulging through the optic nerve. Two trunks of the split op...

Each optic nerve contains several bundles of axons. The axons have their surface membranes directly apposed and the bundles lie in troughs of the elongated Schwann cells. The axons have pronounced varicosities along their length. The axons enter the optic lobe and run between the granule cells to synapse in theplexiform zone. The granule cells are small neurons. Their cytoplasmic organelles inc...

• The sympathetic innervation of the vascular tree consists of postganglionic fibers derived from the sympathetic ganglion cells in the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar regions of the sympathetic trunks. In most vascular beds the blood vessels receive their innervation from postganglionic nerves which accompany the main arterial vessels supplying the bed. Information is sparse, however, regarding...

Hierarchical nanostructures of lead sulfide nanowires resembling pine trees were synthesized by chemical vapor deposition. Structural characterization revealed a screwlike dislocation in the nanowire trunks with helically rotating epitaxial branch nanowires. It is suggested that the screw component of an axial dislocation provides the self-perpetuating steps to enable one-dimensional crystal gr...

Until recently, growth stress studies have been made only on coniferous and dicotyledonous trees. Growth stress of trees is thought to be initiated in newly formed secondary xylem cells. This stress can accumulate for years and is distributed inside the trunk. Major characteristics of the trunk of monocotyledonous trees include numerous vascular bundles scattered inside the ground tissue and th...

Cerebral atherosclerosis without luminal narrowing has been found macroscopically and by angiographic examinations in some patients with cerebral hemorrhage. In order to clarify the histology of non-stenotic atherosclerosis of the cerebral vessels, we examined cleared specimens and serial sections of the main trunks of the cerebral arteries. The middle cerebral artery was selected in 20 cases o...
