ADAPTIVE ADVANTAGE OF MYRMECOCHORY IN THE ANT-DISPERSED HERB LAMIUM AMPLEXICAULE (LAMIACEAE): PREDATION AVOIDANCE THROUGH THE DETERRENCE OF POST-DISPERSAL SEED PREDATORS.

Seed dispersal by ants (myrmecochory) is found worldwide, but the benefits that plants obtain from this mutualism remain Eye Wash Stations uncertain.In the present study, we conducted laboratory experiments to demonstrate seed predator avoidance as a benefit of myrmecochory using the annual ant-dispersed herb Lamium amplexicaule, the disperser ant

Several thousands of ozone vertical profiles collected in the course of the MOZAIC programme (Measurements of Ozone, Water Vapour, Carbon Monoxide and Nitrogen Oxides by In-Service Airbus Aircraft) from August 1994 to February 2002 are investigated to bring out climatological and interannual variability aspects.The study is centred on the most freq

Abstract Non-factorizable virtual corrections to Higgs boson production in weak boson fusion at next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD were estimated in the eikonal approximation [1].This approximation corresponds to the expansion of Stacking Kit relevant amplitudes around the forward limit.In this paper we compute the leading power correction to the

With low investment, countryside walking tourism contributes to the rapid recovery of rural tourism in the post-covid time.The research purpose is to examine factors that impact the interest of tourists in the state-supported countryside walking tourism.The sample consisted of 467 LIPSTICK JUNIPER WATER respondents from the general public.The SPSS
