BACKGROUND AND AIMS A test was made of the hypothesis that the prostrate growth habit of the leaves of the geophyte Brunsvigia orientalis enables utilization of soil-derived CO(2) and is related to the presence of lysigenous air-filled channels characteristic of B. orientalis leaves. METHODS Brunsvigia orientalis was sampled at a field site. Leaf anatomy, stomatal density, leaf/soil gas excha...

Trichoderma orientalis (T. orientalis) EU7-22 has a complete cellulase system and shows remarkable enzyme activity with high potential in the industry. Ace2 is an important transcriptional factor for hemicellulase expression reesei reesei). However, ace2 gene cannot be found genome of T. orientalis. Researches show that mechanism regulation keeps similarity up till now. So, this study, QM9414 w...

The introduction and expansion of the Asian yellow-legged hornet (Vespa velutina nigrithorax) in Europe poses concern for multiple reasons, including biodiversity conservation. In addition to predation native insects (e.g., bees wasps), this species may compete with hornets due an overlap their climatic trophic niches. aim study is investigate realised niche V. v. nigrithorax its response condi...

8 strains of endophytic actinomycetes were successfully isolated from root nodules of Elaeagnus angustifolia by the methord of nodule-slicing respectively on three mediums S, FTW and DPM. And these strains were analyzed by 16S rDNA phylogenetic studies, the result showed that 5 of these strains belonged to Micromonospora, and the other 3 strains was Nonomuraea, Pseudonocardia and Planotetraspor...

In Australia, outbreaks of clinical theileriosis caused by Theileria orientalis have been largely associated with the Ikeda genotype which can occur as a sole infection, or more commonly, as a mixture of genotypes. The most prevalent genotype, Chitose, frequently co-occurs with type Ikeda, however the role of this genotype in clinical disease has not been clearly established. Furthermore, the d...

objective(s) the role of elaeagnus angustifolia fruit as an analgesic agent in acute pain has been proved earlier. in this study, the effects of aqueous extracts of three parts of this fruit (pericarp, medulla and seed) on chronic pain were investigated in mice. materials and methods a partial nerve injury was made using a tight ligature around the sciatic nerve, then doses (0.5, 1, 1.5 g/kg, i...

INTRODUCTION Fruits of oleaster (Elaeagnus angustifolia L.) were used in traditional medicine to treat various diseases. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the phenol and flavonoid contents and antioxidant activity of methanol extracts from the fruit peel, flesh and seed of seven genotypes of oleaster. METHODS The phenol and flavonoid contents were determined using spectrophoto...
