during the visits of common reed [phragmites australis (cav.) trin. ex steud] in different locations of west azerbaijan province during 2015–16, symptoms of fungal infections was frequently observed. among the isolated and studied fungi, deightoniella arundinacea (corda) s. hughes was commonly observed. based on available literatures, this species was found new to mycobiota of iran.

The purpose of this study was to investigate relations between acquiescence, dissociation, and resistance to misleading information. A total of 111 participants took part in a series of staged events and then completed both the Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES) and the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI-2). The participants returned to the lab 1 week later and were questioned ...

Achillea lanulosa has complex, highly dissected leaves that vary in shape and size along an altitudinal gradient. Plants from a high and an intermediate altitude population were clonally replicated and grown in a controlled environment at warm and cool conditions under bright light. There were genetic differences among populations and among individuals within populations in leaf size and shape....

The Achillea millefolium L. (Yarrow) is a common herb which is widely being used, worldwide. Achillea is being used for treatment of many disorders since centuries. It is considered safe for supplemental use and flavonoids such as kaempferol, luteolin and apigenin are of main constituents present in Achillea. Most of both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of this herb have been attri...

Clinical and Epidemiological studies have shown that a diet rich in fruits and vegetables is associated with a decreased risk of cardiovascular diseases, cancers and other related disorders. These beneficial health effects have been attributed in part to the presence of antioxidants in dietary plants. Therefore screening for antioxidant properties of plant extracts has been one of the interests...

This paper presents a dynamic principal-agent model of aquatic species invasions in which a manager, concerned about the spread of invasive species across lakes by boaters, sets interseasonal management controls on a lake-by-lake basis, and ...

P olyploidy is a prominent chromosomal/genetical feature in most flowering plant groups (1, 2). Change in the number of chromosome sets (and thus gene dosage) is an important factor in the genesis of new species, in part because plants with higher ploidal levels often have ecological tolerances that differ from those of their progenitors. Plant evolutionists have been very interested in the ori...
