Lignin is one of the three major components of the cell wall of lignocellulosic biomaterials. It is the second-most abundant polymer in nature. It is a complex and heterogeneous polymer found in the cell walls of lignocellulosic biomass. Lignin&rsquo...

Understanding genetic diversity is crucial for plant adaptation in a changing world. The neutral genetic variation (NGD) is correlated to adaptation capacity, which is crucial for long-term conservation of threatened species. Brazil, a megadiverse na...

Azadirachta indica was designated the “Tree of the 21st century” by the United Nations, as it is believed to be the largest natural depository of bioactive phytochemicals. This study investigates genetic variability among 152 Candidate Pl...

Mediterranean coastal heritage sites face escalating threats from climate change, including sea-level rise, coastal erosion, and extreme weather events. These risks endanger both the physical preservation of archeological sites and thei socio-economi...

In the present study, dam site suitability mapping was carried out for the Purna sub-basin of the upper Tapi basin. Constructing dams in strategically chosen locations is a crucial water management approach to alleviate flood risks and water scarcity...

Wood–plastic composites (WPCs) are interesting materials as the biobased content is determined by the inclusion of wood particles regenerated from residual wood sources or biomass products. At present, the aim is to increase the wood content in...

The emerald ash borer (EAB) was found in Kharkiv (Ukraine) in 2022, infesting ash trees in the permanent focus of the ash black sawfly. We aimed to recognize the characteristics of trees that attract EAB. Ash tree defoliation, dieback, epicormic shoo...

The pinewood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, infects susceptible pine species and causes pine wilt disease (PWD). The first visible symptoms are yellowing and drooping of pine needles due to compromised biochemical reactions of photosynth...

This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the dynamics of forest biodiversity through a model representing a diseased food web system, focusing on the interactions among four animal species within a forest ecosystem. The relationships between p...

This study investigated the relationships between air pollutants (PM10, SO2, NO2, O3, CO) and meteorological parameters (wind speed, relative humidity, ambient temperature) across urban, suburban, and industrial areas in Malaysia from 2017 to 2021. U...
