Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleMorphological Characterization and Variation in the Total Content of Reducing Sugars in Wild Populations of Agave angustifolia HawMartin Esqueda, Aldo Gutierrez, Guadalupe Palomino et al.Problem statement: Bacanora, a spirit, is distilled from wild populations of Agave angustifolia Haw. Loss of biodiversity must be taken into account when proposing sustainable management actions for this resource. In this study we identified the morphological variants of this species, as well as the weight and Total Content of Reducing Sugars (TRS) in the stem of the agave. Approach: … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 21 Oct 2011 · 8,553 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe European Wild Boar (Sus scrofa) as a Reservoir of Tuberculosis: Ecological Drivers and Management ImplicationsGiovanna Liguori, Renato Lombardi, Fabio Castagna et al.Bovine tuberculosis (bTB), an infectious disease primarily caused by Mycobacterium bovis and other members of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, represents a significant challenge to both animal and public health. Despite successful control programs in numerous regions, the presence of wildlife reservoirs, notably wild boar (Sus scrofa), impedes complete eradication and sustains disease propagation. bTB prevalence varies across Europe, with higher … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 16 Nov 2025 · 2,621 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Diversity of Common Wild Wheat Species in Armenia Using ISSR MarkersManvel Badalyan, Tatevik Aloyan, Varya Dilanyan et al.Armenia is one of the primary genealogical centers of numerous crops, the wild relatives of many of which are still found in Armenia today. Population limits of three out of 4 species of wild relatives of endemic wheat in Armenia (T. araraticum Jakubz, T. urartu Tumanian ex Gandilyan, T. boeoticum Boiss.) have been reduced in recent decades as a result … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 3 · 15 Aug 2023 · 5,217 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWild Allium longicuspis Regel is a Feral Form of Allium sativum L. in Kazakhstan: A Comparative Molecular Genetic AnalysisAkerke Tokenova, Gulnar Sitpayeva et al.The genus Allium L comprises over 1000 species with important nutritional, medicinal and horticultural applications. The natural flora of Kazakhstan is rich in Allium species, including the wild long-pointed onion, A. longicuspis and cultivated A. sativum garlic varieties. It has been hypothesized that A. longicupis is ancestral to A. sativum. We investigated genetic polymorphism in samples of A. longicupis and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 1 · 26 Dec 2022 · 6,490 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSummarizing Spatial Distribution Density, Movement Patterns and Food Resources to Study the Impacts of Logging and Forest Conversion on Orang-utan PopulationRaymond Alfred, Koh Pei Hue, Lee Shan Khee, Rayner AlfredProblem statement: Orang-utan is classified as a totally protected species and is listed as an endangered species in Borneo. The survival of this species is highly dependent on the existence and quality of the lowland forest of Sabah. However, most of the pristine habitats in the lowland area have been converted into other land use activities such as a large … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,184 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProfiling of Phenolic Compounds of Somatic and Reproductive Tissues of Agave Durangensis Gentry (Agavaceae)Norma Almaraz-Abarca, Elí Amanda Delgado-Alvarado, Vicente Hernández-Vargas et al.Problem statement: In Durango, Mexico, mescal is elaborated from wild plants of Agave durangensis. This species shows a high morphological variability within and among populations, what makes its taxonomic delimitation a hard task. Approach: In this study the pollen and foliar phenolic compositions of Agave durangensis were analyzed by HPLC/DAD with the aim of determining the significance of phenol profiles … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,740 accessesView PDF Cite
