Abstract:
... Perennial herbaceous plants in seasonal temperate climates must form belowground storage organs to contain carbohydrates for seasonal regrowth and to mitigate disturbance and damage. The factors that dictate the size and turnover of these organs are still little understood. According to the Integrator–Splitter Hypothesis, storage organ persistence decreases with greater moisture and nutrient avail ...

Abstract:
... The availability of quality planting material is one of the most important requirements for increasing the productivity of any ornamental crop. Horticulturists make use of auxins and apply them exogenously to cuttings to generate adventitious roots and balanced shoots. Many studies have illustrated the influence of seaweed extracts on the growth of ornamental crops; their use in vegetative cutting ...

Abstract:
... The nutritional condition of juvenile mussels appears to play a major role in their performance after they are seeded into coastal mussel farms. However, the extent to which the nutritional condition of juvenile mussels varies with size and starvation are poorly understood. Therefore, this study measured the biochemical composition of juvenile green-lipped mussels of five sizes (range of 0.5–7.5 m ...

Abstract:
... In this study, Phellinus linteus polysaccharides (PLPS) and proteins were simultaneously separated from P. linteus mycelia by using an aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) based on choline chloride ([Chol]Cl)/K₂HPO₄, and the physicochemical and antioxidant properties of PLPS after ATPS extraction were evaluated. Results demonstrated that the maximal extraction efficiencies of 68.53% ± 0.29% PLPS and 82 ...

Abstract:
... Marine macroalgae are considered renewable natural resources due to their high carbohydrate content, which gives better utilization value in biorefineries and higher value conversion than first- and second-generation biomass. However, due to the diverse composition, complex structure, and rare metabolic pathways of macroalgae polysaccharides, their bioavailability needs to be improved. In recent y ...

Abstract:
... Phycoremediation of swine wastewater is an attractive treatment to remove contaminants and simultaneously produce valuable feedstock biomass. However, there is a lack of information about the application of phycoremediation on veterinary antibiotic removal. Thus, this research investigated the degradation of tetracycline, oxytetracycline, chlortetracycline and doxycycline in swine wastewater treat ...
