Aliso: A Journal of Systematic and Floristic Botany
We investigated the phylogenetic relationships of the endemic New Zealand (NZ) species of Festuca (Poaceae, Pooideae) by assessing sequence variation from the nuclear internal transcribed spacers (ITS) and a chloroplast intergenic spacer (trnL–trnF) and by measuring DNA content using flow cytometry. The ITS and trnL–trnF data sets were congruent in showing that the NZ species of Festuca have two origins. One group, containing F. coxii, F. luciarum, F. multinodis, and F. ultramafica, is closely related to Festuca sect. Aulaxyper. The other group includes a clade of five endemic …

Treatment Of Heavy Metals Contaminated Solid Wastes-Stabilization, Zeljko J. Kamberovic
Treatment Of Heavy Metals Contaminated Solid Wastes-Stabilization, Zeljko J. Kamberovic
Zeljko J Kamberovic
This paper presents investigation of possibility of heavy metals contaminated solid wastes treatment form Bor Site, Serbia. Presented remediation technology is stabilization, which can effectively reduce content of contaminants in the environment. As a representative of solid waste from investigated site Dam from the Bor copper sulphide ore flotation tailings was chosen. For stabilization of solid waste as stabilizing agenses foundry sand and lime were used. Experiments were conducted by leaching of mixture of solid samples and stabilizing agens or their mixture with sulphuric acid. Change of Cu, Fe, Pb and Zn concentration and change of pH and Eh value …
Ecology And Morphological Comparison Between Rough Greensnakes (Opheodrys A. Aestivus) And Eastern Smooth Greensnakes (Opheodrys V. Vernalis) In West Virginia, Timothy Earl Baldwin
Ecology And Morphological Comparison Between Rough Greensnakes (Opheodrys A. Aestivus) And Eastern Smooth Greensnakes (Opheodrys V. Vernalis) In West Virginia, Timothy Earl Baldwin
Theses, Dissertations and Capstones
Since 1971, documented Rough Greensnake (Opheodrys aestivus) occurrences in West Virginia have declined from approximately 100 to less than 20 occurrences in the last 10 years. In contrast to the decline of Rough Greensnakes in WV, Smooth Greensnake (O. vernalis) populations appear to be stable over the same period of time. Historic sites from the West Virginia Biological Survey were cross referenced with habitat descriptions in published literature to establish research locations. One hundred nineteen Rough and Smooth Greensnakes were measured for snout-vent length and total body length, and of these, 78 were measured in detail for external head morphology …
