LEAVES BIODIVERSITY HOTSPOTS? A. ELIZABETH ARNOLD1 AND F. LUTZONI Department of Biology‚ Duke University‚ Durham‚ North Carolina 27708 USA Abstract. Fungal endophytes are found in asymptomatic photosynthetic tissues of all major lineages of land plants. The ubiquity of these cryptic symbionts is clear‚ but the scale of their diversity‚ host range‚ and geographic distributions are unknown. To explore the putative hyperdiversity of tropical leaf endophytes‚ we compared endophyte communities along

Ryan Tudino Mrs. Couchon Biology Honors/ 1A 10 April 2013 Abstract The seeds of summer squash (Cacurbita moschata)‚ beet (Beta vulgaris)‚ and pepper (Capsicum annuum) are all dicot plants‚ which mean that they have two seed leaves inside the seed coat. When they are placed in an environment and are watered with solutions of different acidic and alkaline levels‚ the root growth during germination is affected. The purpose of this experiment was to observe what type of substance‚ acidic or basic

Back to Square One In the 1960’s‚ Robert C. Beck‚ D. Sc.‚ who preferred to be called simply Bob Beck‚ created what is known as the Bob Beck Protocol‚ a bioelectric treatment plan designed to help the body heal itself. His passion for healing technology led him to discover 5 fundamental steps for the maintenance of health and wellness. • Electrotherapeutic devices using micro currents of electricity‚ called the “Silver Pulser” or “Beck Zapper” • A magnetic device that uses pulsed magnetic fields‚

Computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) is the manufacturing approach of using computers to control the entire production process.[1][2] This integration allows individual processes to exchange information with each other and initiate actions. Through the integration of computers‚ manufacturing can be faster and less error-prone‚ although the main advantage is the ability to create automated manufacturing processes Before we discuss what an MES is and does‚ we need a brief history lesson on the

Introduction: Plants have adaptations to help them survive in harsh environments; Some live in a forests where plants have to find a way to get the sunlight they require‚ some live in an aquatic environments where there is an abundance of water‚ and some live in desert environments where it is dry and very hot. These plants have different adaptations such as leaf size‚ leaf surface‚ stem size‚ and their stress level. In this lab‚ we will be discussing plants from 3 different regions; forest‚ aquatic

Andrographis paniculata is a herbaceous plant in the family Acanthaceae‚ native to India and Sri Lanka. It is widely cultivated in southern Asia‚ where it is used to treat infections and some diseases‚ often being used before antibiotics were created. Mostly the leaves and roots were used for medicinal purposes. | | edit]Etymology Andrographis paniculata is an erect annual herb extremely bitter in taste in each and every part of the plant body.

percent of animal life lives in the trees. It is filled with lakes‚ river‚ swamps and a wide variety of different terrain. There is an overabundance of green plant life that strives on the heavy rains received each year. The forest floor is full of nutrients which the large tree strive on giving the canopy effects and which houses so much plant and animal life. 2.

Transport in Plants Matthew H. 9A 131002 Today I will be discussing our experiment and the basics of transport of minerals and water in plants. Transport in plants are called transpiration. Water evaporates from the leaves which cause a type of suction that draws water from the roots. The water travels up via the vascular bundles. This flow of water is called transpiration stream. Some pressure is created forcing some water out of the cells in into the spaces between the cells
