Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Researchers combined aerial and ground surveys to map baobab distribution and assess elephant herbivory impacts on baobabs across Karingani Game Reserve, Mozambique. Researchers found that aerial surveys were an effective tool for mapping baobabs and that baobabs were more likely to occur closer to permanent water, at lower elevations, and in areas ...

Comparisons Among Pollen Viability Measurement Methods in Cotton
, 1983 Methods for measuring pollen viability were compared to determine their relative value in evaluating cotton.(Gossypium hirsutum L.) pollen. Pollen was treated at constant temperatures of 30, 33, 35, 37, 40, and 43°C for 15 hours prior to anthesis ...
