In Antarctica, the marine ecosystem is dynamically interrelated with the terrestrial ecosystem. An example of the link between these two ecosystems is the biogeochemical cycle of phosphorus. Bio- vectors, such as peng...
Bat guano from six different karst caves in Slovenia was screened by PCR for the presence of Geomyces destructans [1]. Two identical DNA sequences from guano heaps in two of the caves with recent bat droppings were re...
Two are the critical factors in the commercial production of ornamental plants: the substrate and the fertilization method, since the "sustainable floriculture" discourages the use of synthetic chemical fertilizers...
