BACKGROUND: The giant lizard of La Gomera (Gallotia bravoana), is an endemic lacertid of this Canary Island that
lives confined to a very restricted area of occupancy in a steep cliff, and is catalogued as Critically Endangered by
IUCN. We present the first population genetic analysis of the wild population...

This publication is an extended revision of the previous edition. It describes how to grow tomatoes and tomatillos in the home garden. Topics include site and soil preparation, cultivar selection, propagation, planting and plant care, techniques for extending the growing season, pruning and training systems, and harvest and storage.
Aquaculture, the farming of aquatic organisms especially fish, in Nigeria is dated back to the 1940s at Onikan Experimental farm, South West Lagos and the 160ha industrial scale fish farm, Middle Belt, Panyam, Jos in 1951. Since then, great expansion has been witnessed in Nigeria’s aquaculture industry; graduating from extensive...

Rationale:
The sampling of sequential, annually formed bone growth layers for stable carbon (δ¹³C values) and nitrogen (δ¹⁵N values) isotope analysis (SIA) can provide a time series of foraging ecology data. To date, no standard protocol exists for the pre-SIA treatment of cortical samples taken from fresh, modern, bones.
Methods:...

Remote aquatic ecosystems are exposed to an assortment of semivolatile organic compounds (SOCs) originating from current and historic uses, of local and global origin. Here, a representative suite of 57 current- and historic-use pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons were surveyed in the plasma of the western pond turtle...

Members of Gram-positive Actinobacteria cause economically important diseases to plants. Within the Rhodococcus genus,
some members can cause growth deformities and persist as pathogens on a wide range of host plants. The current model
predicts that phytopathogenic isolates require a cluster of three loci present on a linear plasmid, with...
