CONCLUSIONS On the basis of the present results one can conclude that when pollen traps are used to establish a pol- len: vegetation analogue the comparison can be made at various levels. Local vegetation types of limited extent can be distinguished. The points of distinction are rather fine ...
which are also well-known ancient sites. Glastonbury is to the west of Stonehenge. From the map, it appears to be about 35 miles away. Crop circle formations often appear near such sites; and in some cases, right next to them.
In order to comply with the effect terms defined in the German Federal Immission Protection Law (BImSchG) and the precautio- nary principle, buffer zones for Bt-maize cultivation have to be considered at high safety levels, and distances in the range of 1,000 m are recommended. Such a...

The ANOVA test, coupled with a threshold of 1.5-fold changes in levels, clearly revealed a total of 40 protein spots changing visibly (up- or down- regulated proteins) between treated and control samples as shown in Figs.2a,3a and4a. ...
Their ecological require- ments indicate that the water levels were rather low. At the telmatic zone of the lake Equisetum sp., Sparga- nium sp. and Cyperaceae were prevailing. Some of the first pioneer species to spread on the dry raw soils were dwarf shrubs such as Salix sp. (cf. ...
The alleles associated with elevated levels of unreduced pollen showed deleterious mutation events: an exonic transposon insert causing a premature stop, and an amino acid change within a highly conserved domain. Taken together, our findings shed light on the natural variation underlying unreduced ...

For this analysis, four levels were considered for genotype (Cabernet Franc, Chardonnay, Gewuerztraminer and Sauvignon Blanc), two for shoot position (proximal and distal) and two for inflorescence position (first and second order) factors. A Fisher's LSD-test was performed to assess differences...
When the landfill use comes to end, important subsequent steps include aftercare, safety assurance, and ecological regeneration. Landfill revegetation is cost-effective and eco-friendly approach in the management of landfill areas, which serves the purpo
