Many photosynthetic plants supplement carbon with fungal carbon, but the mechanisms that govern dependence on mycoheterotrophic are poorly understood. We used exclusion shelters to manipulate water and light availability of terrestrial orchids Goodyera pubescens Tipularia discolor . tracked changes in δ 13 C from photosynthesis 15 N acquired soil-derived inorganic nitrogen versus mycoheterotrop...

Environmental pollution may be considered one of the main problems affecting world population. As effluents from textile industries are largest representatives sources water bodies due to disposal colored compounds in environment. Microorganisms capable thriving wastewater exhibit metabolic machinery synthesize a wide variety enzymes and/or secondary metabolites industrial interest. The present...

La modelación y simulación computacional representan una herramienta competitiva funcional que apoya eficazmente al estudio del comportamiento termoquímico en la optimización de combustión. Garantiza resultados confiables a través diseño, permitió validación las propiedades termodinámicas exceso aplicados para combustión biomasa Piptocoma discolor (pigüe) región amazónica Ecuador América Latina...

Wooden take-off board is easy to crack, deform, discolor, and decay when it used outdoors, which not only increases maintenance costs but also reduces its service life. Multifunctional coatings with UV-resistant, water-repellent, flame-retardant properties were successfully obtained on the surface of a wooden substrate by spray-assisted layer-by-layer self-assembly. The consisted positively-cha...
