In order to understand the distribution and prevalence of Ommatissus lybicus (Hemiptera: Tropiduchidae) as well as analyse their current biographical patterns and predict their future spread, comprehensive and detailed information on the environmental, climatic, and agricultural practices are essential. The spatial analytical techniques such as Remote Sensing and Spatial Statistics Tools, can h...

The occurrence of a large number of fossil woods having resemblance in anatomical features with the modern palm genus, Phoenix L in Deccan Intertrappean fossil flora of Maastrichtian-Danian age (i. e. Late Cretaceous and Earliest Tertiary (65-67 my)) indicates the most primitive record of date palm. Present discovery of biocompounds from fossil wood of Phoenix collected from Deccan Intertrappea...

the ameliorative activity of aqueous extract of the flesh of dates (phoenix dactylifera l.) and ascorbic acid on thioacetamide-induced hepatotoxicity was studied in rats. sixty male rats were divided into six equal groups of 10. two groups were controls, one treated with thioacetamide and one with only distilled water. two groups received extract of flesh phoenix dactylifera and intraperitoneal...

iran is one of the main date (phoenix dactylifera) producing countries in the world. however, little information is available on the pollen viability and favorable storage conditions of iranian male date cultivars. this study was conducted to estimate the best in vitro pollen germination of three male date palm cultivars, `ghanami’, `samsmavi’ and `gheibani’ using various doses of boric acid (0...

Biochar, a carbon rich organic amendment, derived from biomass by pyrolysis under high-temperature and zero oxygen condition, is soil amendment to enrich with essential nutrients. Biochar multidimensional in its benefits, including increase sequestration, reduction green house emission, improved fertility, prolonged moisture retention capability overcome drought. can be produced wide array of b...
