Petals are an excellent model system for the study of fundamental aspects of senescence. The need of present study was felt with the aim to study the changes taking place during petal senescence in cut flowers of Tagetes erecta L. Estimation of total phenols was studied from first stage to senescent stage of Tagetes erecta L. The amount of total phenols had a decreasing trend with progressing s...

Growing travel and trade threatens biodiversity as it increases the rate of biological invasions globally, either by accidental or intentional introduction. Therefore, avoiding these impacts by forecasting invasions and impeding further spread is of utmost importance. In this study, three forecasting approaches were tested and combined to predict the invasive behaviour of the alien macrophyte L...
