BACKGROUND
The genus Acer (Aceraceae), commonly known as maple, comprises approximately 129 species that primarily grow in the northern hemisphere, especially in the temperate regions of East Asia, eastern North America, and Europe. These plants have been traditionally used to treat a wide range of
The effects of high O3 (200 nl l-1 during the light period) and high CO2 (650 &mgr;l l-1 CO2, 24 h a day) alone and in combination were studied on 45-day-old sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) seedlings for 61 days in growth chambers. After 2 months of treatment under the environmental conditions
Approximately 20% of plant species, including silver maple (Acer saccharinum L.), produce seeds that are sensitive to desiccation, which is reflected in their poor storage potential and viability. In the search for a compound that can improve seed recalcitrance, freshly harvested seeds were soaked
Two-year-old seedlings of Acer platanoides were cultivated during a three-month hydroponic experiment in modified Knop solution enriched with inorganic (As(III), As(V)) and organic (dimethylarsinic acid - DMA) arsenic forms at 0.06 mM, 0.6 mM and their combinations. The profile and content of low
Insensitive acetylcholinesterase (AceR) and five over-produced esterases (A1, A2 and B2, and A4 and B4) involved in detoxification are responsible for resistance to organophosphorous insecticides (OPs) in Culex pipiens L. from the Rhône-Alpes region, where C. pipiens control is mainly accomplished
With the goal of developing soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) inhibitors with novel chemical structures, the sEH inhibitory activities of 30 natural compounds were evaluated using both a fluorescent substrate, 3-phenyl-cyano(6-methoxy-2-naphthalenyl)methyl ester- 2-oxiraneacetic acid, and a
Polyphagous insect herbivores possess diverse mechanisms to overcome challenges of feeding in multiple plant species including, but not limited to, transcriptional plasticity and associations with obligate or facultative symbionts. The Asian longhorned beetle (Anoplophora glabripennis) is a
