Gorenjski nagelj je različica vrtnega nageljna (Dianthus caryophyllus), ki je bila ena najpogostejših gojenih vrst okrasnih rastlin pri nas. Raste pokončno, a se med rastjo zaradi teže poveša čez rob korita. Na dolgih steblih ima sivo srebrne liste, na koncu pa se odpirajo svetlo rdeči cvetovi, ki cvetijo od junija do pozne jeseni. Po izgledu in iz...

The Benguela upwelling region on the west coast of South Africa/Namibia has the only major kelp forests on the African continent. South Africa has four species of laminarian kelps; Ecklonia maxima, Laminaria pallida dominate kelp forests in the west coast Benguela upwelling system, with Macrocystis pyrifera occurring rarely in this region and Ecklo...
Accessing plant resources to extract compounds of interest can sometimes be difficult. To facilitate this access and limits environmental impact of transport, cultivation strategies can be developed. Coleus forskohlii Briq. a member of the Lamiaceae family (Ali Khan, 2012), used in Indian and Chinese traditional medicine and rich in diterpenoids, i...

This article reflects the results of research on optimizing the conditions of cultivation of strain “ТК-A(VIEV)-В2” of infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) and strain “ВК-1” of bovine viral diarrhea (BVDV). It was found that the roller cultivation method is most easily applicable and provides the production of viral material with high infectious...

This article invites readers to rethink the presence and role of soil by creating a soliumpoietics, without which terrestrial plant life itself struggles to occur. It utilizes both materialism/material agency and hyperobject lenses to analyze soil. In so doing it argues that these lenses may provide a more holistic understanding to better theorize ...

The giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera (Linnaeus) C. Agardh 1820) is a habitat-forming brown seaweed in temperate systems with an unexplored potential as a source of seaweed bioproducts. This study used M. pyrifera sporophytes sourced in Tasmania, Australia, to investigate the effect of photoperiod and temperature on growth rates and the nutritional ...

Crude Palm Oil (CPO) is an important commodity for Indonesia, after fossil oil is no longer the main component of export products. The bioenergy product that has been well developed and applied is biodiesel. The development of CPO for bioenergy has some obstacles, such the amount of CPO needed is large so that it will affect the capacity of CPO use...

The spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in animal husbandry is usually attributed to the use of antibiotics and poor hygiene and biosecurity. We therefore conducted experimental trials to improve hygiene management in weaned pig houses and assessed the impact on the spread. For each of the two groups examined, the experimental group (EG) and t...

Genetically modified (GM) crops that have been engineered to express transgenes have been in commercial use since 1995 and are annually grown on 200 million hectares globally. These crops have provided documented benefits to food security, rural economies, and the environment, with no substantiated case of food, feed, or environmental harm attribut...

Cyanobacteria have been proposed as a potential alternative carbohydrate feedstock and multiple species have been successfully engineered to secrete fermentable sugars. To date, the most productive cyanobacterial strains are those designed to secrete sucrose, yet there exist considerable differences in reported productivities across different model...
