Factors that influenced the increase in epiphytic bacterial population size on navel orange leaves during winter months were investigated to test the assumption that such populations were the result of multiplication on orange leaves. The population sizes of bacteria of different kinds, including ice nucleation-active (Ice(sup+)) bacteria, were from 6- to 30-fold larger on leaves of navel orang...

The abundance and species richness of mollusc and crab assemblages were examined in a subtropical mangrove forest in Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia, which has been disturbed and damaged by the construction of a wooden boardwalk and a path. Sections of the forest immediately adjacent to the boardwalk and path were compared with reference areas to determine whether changes to the small-scale ...

Due to the fluctuating water availability in the arboreal habitat, epiphytic plants are considered vulnerable to climate change and anthropogenic disturbances. Although co-occurring taxa have been observed divergent adaptive performances in response to drought, the underlying physiological and morphological mechanisms by which epiphyte species cope with water stress remain poorly understood. In...

Anthracnose is an important disease in red chili caused by Colletotrichum capsici which can reduce productivity up to 65%. Controlling using indigenous epiphytic yeasts has never been done. The study aimed determine the ability of yeast isolates control C. on chili. was carried out at Phytopathology Laboratory, Faculty Agriculture, Universitas Andalas, from August 2019 - April 2020 vitro and vi...

IIce nucleation active (INA) bacteria are common epiphytic inhabitants that cause frost damage in many plants in the near-zero temperatures. Yet, no studies were found in ice nucleation bacteria associated with pistachio trees. In our earlier study some INA strains were identified and reported. These were assigned as Pseudomonas fragi, P. putida, P. moraviensis and<em...

Cymbidium, one of the most important orchid genera in horticulture, can be classified into epiphytic and terrestrial species. Generally, epiphytic Cymbidium seedlings can be easily propagated by tissue culture, but terrestrial seedlings are difficult to propagate. To date, the molecular mechanisms underlying the differences in the ease with which terrestrial and epiphytic cymbidiums can be prop...

Abstract Epiphytic lichens are sensitive to deteriorating air quality, but levels of nitrogen and especially sulphur deposition have been in decline over most Europe recent decades. We assessed the response epiphytic this decline, using data from long-term monitoring sites Sweden. analyzed 20 years investigate temporal trends lichen communities’ sensitivity sulphur, preference, species richness...

Pantoea is a member of the Enterobacteriaceae, whose members have been shown to produce novel antibiotics. Here, we report the 4.8-Mb genome sequence of Pantoea ananatis strain BRT175, an epiphytic isolate from strawberries that produces an antibiotic that is effective against the fire blight pathogen, Erwinia amylovora.

The epiphytic bryophyte vegetation of the Kumbet Plateau (Dereli-Giresun) was investigated. A total 40 releves taken from tree trunks in different periods year 2019 were analysed using multivariate analysis methods such as detrended correspondence (DECORANA) and two-way indicator species (TWINSPAN), Braun-Blanquet method also applied. As a result, Frullanio tamarisci-Neckeretum pumilae Alata?, ...
