The aim of the natural investigations carried out in two archaeological sites in the SE Poland was to determine their TL age (15 samples) and characterize the vegetation cover with the use of pollen analysis (10 samples) of loess and loess-like deposits sampled in the sites and their close environs. Micromorphological features of loess were examined in one of the sites. The research was carried...

Citron watermelon (Citrullus lanatus var. citroides (L.H. Bailey) Mansf. ex Greb.) is an underexploited and under-researched crop species with the potential to contribute diversification in Sub-Saharan Africa. The cultivated drier parts of Southern Africa, mainly by smallholder farmers who maintain a wide range landrace varieties. Understanding molecular morpho-physiological basis for drought a...

The alpine grasslands on the Tibetan Plateau are sensitive and vulnerable to climate change. However, it is still unknown how precipitation use efficiency (PUE), the ratio of aboveground net primary productivity (ANPP) to precipitation, is related to community assembly of plant species, functional groups or traits for the Tibetan alpine grasslands along actual environmental gradients. We conduc...

background & aim: the present study was to identify the medicinal plant species and introduced as one of the key priority areas for conservation and determination of endangered species were done. experimental: the method of plant collection in this region was classical method of regional plant taxonomic studies. collected plants were recognized and determined families, genera and species o...

Plants have been recognized since ancient times as a distinct lineage of organisms, but the precise boundaries of the group have only recently come into sharp focus. Land plants, or embryophytes, are immediately familiar as the organisms that constitute the terrestrial vegetation, dominate agriculture, and play a wide range of cultural and economic roles in human society. It is more difficult t...
