Bryophytes, which are important constituents of ecosystems globally and often dominate carbon and water dynamics at high latitudes and elevations, were also among the pioneers of terrestrial photosynthesis.
One of the main approaches for safeguarding food security, sustainable development has increased demand for knowledge on fertilizer management in crop production.
Molecular diagnostic of plant diseases offer a number of advantages over traditional, highly specific, methods based on microscope examination of morphological features.
Boron is one of the essential micronutrients for higher plants growth and development, and more and more studies have been conducted to establish boron as an essential element in animals and humans.
Acacias: The Genus Acacia (sensu lato) is an evidence-based treatment of this supergenus, through the eyes of a clinical pharmacognosist and integrative medicine specialist.
