Large and diverse genera, such as Silene need more reliable morphological traits for the credible identification and delimitation of the species. Despite the fact that the type of indumentum among the species of Silene had been addressed in most available revisions, monographs and floristic studies, the trichome-based features and their adaptational importance have not been investigated explici...

The purpose of this study is to explore how corn varieties and moisture content affect the mechanical properties with high (26.0~36.4%). that threshing quality are determined by establishing contact model elements kernels. These include size characteristics (corn ear weight kernel triaxial size) in addition elastic modulus, breaking force, stalk force). effects on were tested. results showed ha...

Abstract— A RAD-seq phylogeny is presented for the genus Ulmus , and a revised infrageneric classification given, with keys, descriptions, range maps subgenera sections. The previously accepted was based on cpDNA phylogeny, but several well-marked clades in chloroplast are not recovered do seem to represent valid organismal phylogeny. Ordination STRUCTURE analysis support broad species concept ...

Abstract Sapranthus (Annonaceae) is a Neotropical genus comprising ten small tree species, most of which inhabit the tropical dry forests Mexico and Central America. Morphological characteristics these species are quite variable taxonomically informative, but morphological affinities among them have not been studied. A multivariate cluster analysis was carried out to infer all , establish posit...
