Analysis of Germination Capacity and Germinant Receptor (Sub)clusters of Genome-Sequenced Bacillus cereus Environmental Isolates and Model Strains [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2017
ABSTRACT Spore germination of 17 Bacillus cereus food isolates and reference strains was evaluated using flow cytometry analysis in combination with fluorescent staining at a single-spore level. This approach allowed for rapid collection of germination data under more than 20 conditions, including heat ...

Can species richness be maintained in logged endemic Acacia Heterophylla forests (Reunion Island, Indian Ocean) ? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
It is assumed that forests can serve multiple uses, including wood production and maintenance of high biodiversity level. We tested this hypothesis by studying eradication methods of invasive plants currently implemented in exploited endemic Acacia ...

Impact of pre-sowing treatment and sowing season on Douglas fir emergence rate in a specific seed lot

open access: yesActa Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2013
Not only in the Czech Republic there is a problem with low yield of Douglas fir seedlings in forest tree nurseries. It can be caused mainly by two factors: the type of pre-sowing treatment and the temperature at the time of sowing.

Germination capacity of some halophytic plants species under increasing salinity [PDF]

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Agricultural Research, 2016
In Tunisia, more particularly in semiarid and arid areas, the drought accentuated by the surface evaporation of water lead to gradual increase in salinity of the soil which a major hurdal in development of vegetation. In these highly salted ecosystems, some plants are growing naturally; however, various species show different tolerance levels to ...
