Kanamycin resistance during in vitro development of pollen from transgenic tomato plants [PDF]
Effects of kanamycin on pollen germination and tube growth of pollen from non-transformed plants and from transgenic tomato plants containing a chimaeric kanamycin resistance gene were determined. Germination of pollen was not affected by the addition of

ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.

Relation between mutation yield and cell lethality over a wide range of X-ray and fission neutron doses in maize [PDF]
Dry maize seeds, of a genetic stock heterozygous for the yellow-green locus (Yg^ Λ ^ ) ι were irradiated with fission neutron doses up to 2700 rads and with 250 kVp X-rays to 40 000 rads.

Here, There and Everywhere: Widespread Non‐Native Plants in the World's Urban Ecosystems
ABSTRACT Aim To (a) produce a list of the most widespread naturalised non‐native plant species across cities of the world; (b) explore whether cities on different continents are invaded by the same group of widespread naturalised species; and (c) elucidate the origins of the most widespread naturalised urban species. Location Global.

ABSTRACT Green and blue infrastructures are often combined to create pleasant urban landscapes and provide new ecosystems in the built environment. New techniques for building integrated vegetation systems, such as vertical greening, are becoming common. In this work, we evaluate a case study of a combined aquaponic system composed of a living wall (LW)

Genotoxicity and Cytotoxicity Exerted by Pesticides in Different Biotic Matrices-An Overview of More Than a Decade of Experimental Evaluation [PDF]
Agrochemicals represent one of the most important sources of environmental pollution. Although attempts to reduce agrochemical use through organic agricultural practices and the use of other technologies to control pests continue, the problem is still

How can we use novel techniques such as community science, remote sensing, and environmental DNA to detect rare plants? Our evidence map provides information on the types of plants detected with each technique and the habitats in which the studies took place, as well as potential solutions to help overcome problems found with these techniques, sources ...
