Abstract:

The vanadium content of forty plant foliages were determined by atomic absorption spectophotometry. The foliages were sun dried for eight days, ground, sieved and ashed in muffle furnace. The ashed samples were dissolved in dilute hydrochloric acid. Vanadium was determined in the solutions using atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Results depicted the presence of vanadium between ND (<em>Manihot palmeta</em>, <em>Pisidium quajava</em>) to 9.92mg/kg (<em>Colocaxia esculenta</em>).

Abstract:

Analysis of the metal composition of tender foliages of plants from different locations in the Federal College of Agriculture, Akure, Ondo State campus were carried out using standard method. The results, which referred to dry matter, emphasized the low proportion (mgkg<sup>-1</sup>) of Mn (1.5-11.2), Fe (23.8-101.2), Cd (ND-27), Zn (7.6-15.3), Cu (1.4-8.7) and Pb (ND-2.1). Ca, Mg, Na and K contents were similar to other green vegetables. It is worthy of note, that the low concentration ranges of toxic metals, such as Cd and Pb in all the samples suggest that the environment was not polluted.

Overwintering terminal buds have typically three or four pairs of bud scales and three to six pairs of foliage leaf primordia. Bud scales have a flattened base topped by rudimentary leaflets.

Amounts of induced green needle losses appear to vary according to the availability of alternative foods and squirrel population densities.

Other treatments were intermediate but similar to the 35 ppm with darker green foliage. The 210 ppm treatment produced the most runners per plant while the 350 ppm treatment produced the least. The 210 ppm treatment produced the most crowns per plant w

Abstract:

Zantedeschia aethiopica, the large white calla lily, and Z. `Green Goddess', which is white with a unique green blush on the lip, are two cultivars popular in the floral cut flower trade. Both were treated with gibberellic acid (GA3) for increased flower development, a technique routinely successful for potted calla production but not previously reported effective on cut flowers. Two winter trials in successive years were replicated under Florida growing conditions. A preplant bulb dip of GA3 ranged from 100 to 250 ppm. Z. aethiopica control plants averaged 1.3 flowers per plant, which increas

Abstract:

Particulate matter (PM) is a critical component of urban air pollution, with severe implications for human health and environmental ecosystems. This study investigates the capacity of green roofs at the Warsaw University Library to mitigate air pollution by analyzing the retention of PM and associated trace elements (TEs) across eight perennial plant species during spring, summer, and autumn. The results highlight significant interspecies variability and seasonal trends in PM retention, with peak levels observed in summer due to increased foliage density and ambient pollution.

Abstract:

A method is presented for recognizing trees with unusually colored foliage, based on the use of Munsell plant color charts. Color assessments are made by scoring the crown of each tree for hue, value, and chroma. These values are plotted in three-dimensional space for each species, and a threshold is identified marking the border of an ellipsoid. Trees with foliage outside this ellipsoid are considered as unusual. The method means that assessments of discoloration can cover a range of colors and moves the decision over the color status of a tree from a subjective field decision to a statistica

This pagan character was a Wildman, worshipped as both an apotropaic and benevolent spirit, associated with fertility.

Giant leucaena is a multipurpose tree-legume found throughout the tropics and sub-tropics. Its foliage is used as animal fodder due to high protein and fiber. Giant leucaena has several other advantageous traits such as fast-growth, high yields and strong tolerance to environmental stresses. Despite having these desirable qualities, leucaena tissues contain an undesirable attribute, a toxic non-protein amino acid, mimosine, found in all parts of the plant including the foliage. The goal of this research was to determine mimosine concentrations in various tissues and life stages of giant leucae
