Antibacterial and Antibiofilm Activities of Bluestem (<i>Andropogon</i> spp.) Extracts against <i>Vibrio cholerae</i>. [PDF]

Int J Microbiol
Vibrio cholerae is a gram‐negative bacterium found in water, particularly in brackish and estuarine environments, and causes cholera—an acute disease transmitted through contaminated food or water. Biofilm formation in V. cholerae enhances its resistance to antimicrobial agents and protection against host immune responses.

Effects of different temperatures on the performance of seeds germination of Cecropia pachystachya Trec. (Cecropiaceae) [PDF]

Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 1999
Seed germination of Cecropia pachystachya Trec. was investigated at 25, 30, and 35ºC using fluorescent day lights. Ten replicates each of 200 seeds were used in each thermal treatment. Germitest® paper, CEL-065®, and 11x11x5 cm Gerbox® were also used. The frequencies of radicle protrusions were counted at consecutive two hour intervals.

Tolerância à inundação de Cecropia pachystachya Trec. (Cecropiaceae): aspectos ecofisiológicos e morfoanatômicos [PDF]

Acta Botanica Brasilica, 2008
Visando elucidar aspectos da tolerância à hipoxia, plantas de Cecropia pachystachya foram submetidas a 30 dias de inundação. O crescimento e desenvolvimento, a condutância estomática, a fotossíntese e a morfo-anatomia foram avaliadas. A taxa de crescimento relativo (TCR) da raiz e do caule foi inferior em plantas alagadas, não havendo diferenças nesta ...
