cDNA arrays were used to explore mechanisms controlling fruiting body development in the truffle Tuber borchii. Differences in gene expression were higher between reproductive and vegetative stage than between two stages of fruiting body maturation. We suggest hypotheses about the importance of various physiological processes during the development of fruiting bodies.

Economists believe that the development of the industry sector is for the benefit of other sectors of the economy. In 23 groups of industrial activity in classification ISIC, the production and export of wood industries have received less attention in developing countries. exports of wood products have a major impact on the GDP and provide employment and sustainable development of natural resou...

Aggregation and fruiting body formation by Stigmatella aurantiaca were stimulated most effectively by low irradiances of blue light between 400 and 500 nm. At higher irradiances, other wavelengths of light, including those in the far-red region of the spectrum, were also effective.

in this research, the effect of wood species and particle size on mechanicalproperties of wood plastic composites (wpc) made of fir (abies alba) and beech(fagus orientalis l.) sawdust and high density polyethylene (hdpe) wereinvestigated. wood plastic composite (wpc) were made with 30% hdpe in abatch process at 185˚c, at two particle sizes of 40 mesh and 80 mesh. maleicanhydride polypropylene (...

The majority of terrestrial biomass is wood, but the elemental composition of its potential consumers, xylophages, differs hugely from that of wood. This causes a severe nutritional imbalance. We studied the stoichiometric relationships of 11 elements (C, N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Zn, Mn, Cu, Na) in three species of pine-xylem-feeding insects, Stictoleptura rubra, Arhopalus rusticus (Coleoptera, Cer...

The experimental design included cultivation two species wood-decay fungi Pleurotus citrinopileatus Singer (strain 2161 IVK) Cyclocybe aegerita (V.Brig.) Vizzini 2230 three variants composition. Laboratory, laboratory-produc...

background: despite the advances in medical therapy and technology, the prognosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (ipf) remains poor and the need for disease prevention based on identifying the risk factors becomes mandatory. occupational and environmental exposures were studied in several countries and found to play important role in the disease development. however, in egypt, a little attent...
