During year 2008–11, some infected leaves of eucalypt trees (Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehnh.) having blight and spot symptoms were collected in Golestan province (N Iran). The necrotic spots were appeared on both surfaces of the leaves and were circular to irregular, single to confluent, medium brown to light brown with red brown margin (Fig. 1A & B). In some cases, young leaves have been sever...

Despite the reported allelopathic nature of Eucalyptus genus, eucalypt leachates have unknown effects on trophic base stream green food webs. Eucalypt plantations increased worldwide, including riparian ecosystems. We aimed to test whether short-term might alter water chemistry, periphytic algal biomass and diatoms, herbivorous invertebrates’ (i.e., scrapers). studied two oligotrophic well-pres...

Background The forest fragments of Stryphnodrendron adstringens have disappeared because of the high rate of Brazilian Savannah deforestation for commercial purposes, such as eucalypt, citrus, soy bean, and sugar cane crops that have been intensely cultivated on those areas [1]. Economically, S. adstringens is important for manufacture industries of paints and tanneries, but also is utilized fo...

Widespread species spanning strong environmental (e.g., climatic) gradients frequently display morphological and physiological adaptations to local conditions. Some adaptations are common to different species that occupy similar environments. However, the genomic architecture underlying such convergent traits may not be the same between species. Using genomic data from previous studies of three...

Lignocellulosic residues were tested as artificial log to mushroom production of Lentinula edodes. Three isolates of L. edodes were grown in substrates based on corn bog, and sawdust or bark of eucalypt, enriched with rice bran 20%. The biological efficiency (BE) were higher when corn borg and sawdust was used and the isolate UFV 73 was that presented well shaped mushrooms and higher productivi...

Tall tuart (Eucalyptus gomphocephala) trees are a defining element of the landscape of Perth and the coastal plain to the north and south. However, with the health of some tuart stands deteriorating, most notably at Yalgorup south of Perth, concerns are heightening that the already fragmented tuart ecosystem will continue to contract, leaving a cultural and ecological scar in the landscape. Lik...
