A new hybrid algorithm for intelligent detection of sudden decline syndrome of date palm disease

Scientific Reports, 2023
AbstractDate palm is an important domestic cash crop in most countries. Sudden Decline Syndrome (SDS) causes a huge loss to the crop both in quality and quantity. The literature reports the significance of early detection of disease towards preventive measures to improve the quality of the crop.

At Risk of Population Decline? An Ecological and Genetic Approach to the Threatened Palm Species Butia eriospatha (Arecaceae) of Southern Brazil [PDF]

Journal of Heredity, 2013
To estimate the risk of population decline for the threatened palm species Butia eriospatha, we investigated the patterns of demography, natural regeneration, herbivory, and the levels of genetic diversity using 9 microsatellite loci from both adults and seedlings sampled from 4 populations in Southern Brazil (n = 330). Our results indicate that cattle

‘Candidatus Phytoplasma wodyetiae’, a new taxon associated with yellow decline disease of foxtail palm (Wodyetia bifurcata) in Malaysia

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2017
Landscape-grown foxtail palm (Wodyetia bifurcata A. K. Irvine) trees displaying symptoms of severe foliar chlorosis, stunting, general decline and mortality reminiscent of coconut yellow decline disease were observed in Bangi, Malaysia, during 2012. DNA samples from foliage tissues of 15 symptomatic palms were analysed by employing a nested PCR assay ...

The Cenozoic history of palms: Global diversification, biogeography and the decline of megathermal forests [PDF]

Global Ecology and Biogeography, 2021
AbstractAimMegathermal rain forests and mangroves are much smaller in extent today than in the early Cenozoic, primarily owing to global cooling and drying trends since the Eocene–Oligocene transition (c. 34 Ma). The general reduction of these biomes is hypothesized to shape the diversity and biogeographical history of tropical plant clades.

Effects of Medium Chain Fatty Acid Supplementation in Broiler Diet on Microbiological Quality of Litter [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Poultry Science, 2022
In our experiment, coconut and palm oil supplementation was added to the diet of broiler chickens to prove the hypothesis that medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs) can reduce the occurrence of potential pathogens (Clostridium perfingens, Coliform) in gut ...
