The objective of the study was to perform micromorphological analyses of the secretory structures of leaves and stems of oil-bearing industrial plants from the Lamiaceae family such as lemon balm (Melissa officinalis L.), peppermint (Mentha × piperita L.), sage (Salvia officinalis L.), marjoram (Origanum majorana L., syn. Origanum dubium Boiss.), rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) and common thyme...
The research concerned the evaluation of the soil seed bank and herb layer diversity in the 60−year old secondary oak forest growing in the Kozubowski Landscape Park (Nida Basin, southern Poland). The aim of the studies was to determine the diversity, similarity and species structure of herb layer and soil seed bank within plots situated at different distances from the forest edge as well as to discuss...
Bendiocarb is an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor belong‑ ing to the carbamate class of insecticides. It causes rapid knock-down of an insect. However, its effective concentra‑ tions are relatively high (10-4 M). In our previous toxicity tests performed on American cockroach (Periplaneta amer‑ icana), we have shown that the presence of menthol, a com‑ pound found in some essential oils, improved the...
INTRODUCTION: A number of literature reports pointed out a connection between neurodegenerative disorders morbidity and air pollution with particulate matter (PM) containing transition metals. PM exerts their effect by activation of immune system and oxidative stress induction. AIM(S): The aim of this study was to assess whether exposure to PM is associated with proinflammatory activation of macrophagal...
INTRODUCTION: Cerci mechanoreceptors act as input into the insect escape system. They permit insects to recognize the direction of mechanical stimuli action. Amputation of one cercus elicits a disturbance of space-orientation of the insect and alters its locomotor activity. AIM(S): The aim of the study was: 1) to examine whether untouched one cercus can functionally replace the second one removed,...
