Predation release of Texas horned lizards (Phrynosoma cornutum) living in small towns

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 10, Page 5355-5363, May 2021., 2021
Texas horned lizards living in small South Texas towns experience a predation release. This allows them to exist at much higher than normal densities than populations living in more natural environments. Abstract Texas horned lizards (Phrynosoma cornutum) have a number of ways to avoid predation, including camouflage, sharp cranial horns, flattening of

Exploring drying conditions for Mexican mesquite pods (Prosopis laevigata)

Proceedings of 21th International Drying Symposium, 2018
Mesquite pods contain a high nutritional content, then a protein rich flour can be obtained. Prosopis Laevigata pods were collected from Oaxaca and Durango. Three stages of maturity were identified. The internal structure of the pods was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

Wood Anatomical Characteristics and Chemical Composition Of Prosopis Laevigata Grown in the Northeast of Mexico

IAWA Journal, 2008
Structural heartwood characteristics for Prosopis laevigata (Humb. & Bonpl. ex Willd.) M.C. Johnst., including a histometrical evaluation, were obtained by light microscopy coupled with a digitised image analysis system. The growth ring boundaries of the semi-ring-porous or diffuseporous wood are often marked by a marginal parenchyma band.

Fog interception by Ball moss (Tillandsia recurvata) [PDF]

, 2011
Interception losses are a major influence in the water yield of vegetated areas. For most storms, rain interception results in less water reaching the ground. However, fog interception can increase the overall water storage capacity of the vegetation and
