For each individual palm tree, several parameters were recorded: 1) the number of bunches, 2) bunches height as the bunches distance from the ground, 3) the number of strands/bunch as the average number of strands in three randomly selected bunches, 4) the number of dates per strand which...
The review demonstrates that the majority of vectors consume the fruit on the tree or on a close-by perch, thereby contributing little to medium or long range dispersal. A few avian and terrestrial species facilitate long-distance dispersal, even though they too deposit the majority of seed ...
Date palm, tree of the palm family (Arecaceae) cultivated for its sweet edible fruits. Dates have a long shelf life and may be eaten fresh or dried. They have long been a staple food and source of wealth in the deserts of North Africa and the Middle East
The date palm trees that had been evaluated for infestation in the field were exported as a point layer, which was used to measure the distance of each tree to the edge of the same field (the field's polygon layer). Digital elevation models (DEMs) were used to calculate the landform ...
(B) Pollen sourced from date palm seedling male derived from the “Kacst” cultivar, with spherical-shaped pollen. The DPP from a male tree developed from seed from the “Muzahmiya” cultivar also presented the same shape. (C) Pollen source from date palm seedling male derived from the “...

tree and seeds fallen to the ground, as well as seeds of fallen dates, often after the pericarp has been consumed by other animals, such as rodents. El-Sufty and Helal [15] assert that the beetles prefer to crawl up the stem of the palm and then along the inflorescence to reach the...
