Callus induction and RAPD analysis of Simarouba glauca DC

African Journal of Biotechnology, 2014
Callus induction for somatic embryogenesis from Simarouba glauca DC leaf explants of three genotypes (S. glauca 5, S. glauca 19 and S. glauca 21) was studied. Leaf explants (leaf segments from basal, middle and tip of the leaves) were cultured on two types of nutrient media; SGC1 and SGC2.

Anticancer Properties of Graviola (Annona muricata): A Comprehensive Mechanistic Review

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Graviola (Annona muricata) is a small deciduous tropical evergreen fruit tree, belonging to the Annonaceae family, and is widely grown and distributed in tropical and subtropical regions around the world. The aerial parts of graviola have several functions: the fruits have been widely used as food confectionaries, while several preparations, especially

Physiological and Growth Responses of Tropical Dry Forest Tree Seedlings to Water and Nutrient Additions: Comparisons Between Nitrogen Fixers and Non‐Fixers

Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 5, September 2025.
This study examined the physiological and growth responses of tropical dry forest tree seedlings to water and nutrient additions, comparing nitrogen (N)‐fixing and non‐fixing species. The results showed that N‐fixing species responded more strongly to nutrient addition, accumulating significantly more biomass and increasing height growth rate. Overall,

Realm of Thermoalkaline Lipases in Bioprocess Commodities

Journal of Lipids, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
For decades, microbial lipases are notably used as biocatalysts and efficiently catalyze various processes in many important industries. Biocatalysts are less corrosive to industrial equipment and due to their substrate specificity and regioselectivity they produced less harmful waste which promotes environmental sustainability.

Howler monkey foraging ecology suggests convergent evolution of routine trichromacy as an adaptation for folivory

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 7, Issue 5, Page 1421-1434, March 2017., 2017
Primates possess remarkably variable color vision, and the ecological and social factors shaping this variation remain heavily debated. Here, we examine opsin genes, feeding behaviors, and reflectance of dietary foliage of wild mantled howler monkeys (Alouatta palliata).
