background & aim: ziziphora l. genus belongs to the lamiaceae family, which has important medicinal and aromatic plant species. in current study, essential oil chemical compositions of two ziziphora l. species (z. tenuior l. and z. clinopodioides lam.) were investigated. experimental: the flowering branches of z. tenuior and z. clinopodioides were collected in spring and summer 2011. the ae...

Cultivation of mint timija (Mentha suaveolens subsp. timija (Briq.) Harley) constitutes a promising solution to the conservation and sustainable utilization of this Moroccan endemic and threatened species. Optimized agronomic practices require mineral and/or biological fertilizer applications. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of application of a complete (N, P, and K) mineral ...

We report on the design, first observing season, and analysis of data from a new prototype millimeterwave interferometer, MINT. MINT consists of four 145GHz SIS mixers operating in double-sideband mode in a compact heterogeneous configuration. The signal band is subdivided by a monolithic channelizer, after which the correlations between antennas are performed digitally. The typical receiver se...
