Studying the species composition and taxonomic diversity is necessary to build a diverse monitoring and monitoring database for protecting forests in degraded landscapes. This work has been conducted to evaluate taxonomic diversity and species composition in evergreen broad-leaved forest, Binh Phuoc province. This quantitative assessment of taxonomic diversity and species composition was obtained from 120 sample plots (0.05 ha each). A total of 3297 individuals representing 109 species were recorded in 6.0 ha of total sampled area. Among them, fifteen species in the IUCN Red List (2021). Moreover, Syzygium cumini and Lagerstroemia speciosa are dominant species in areas of research. The average value of Margalef, Pielou and Shannon - Weiner were 3.31, 0.9 and 2.13, respectively. These results can be used as basic data to develop incoming plans for management and conservation at evergreen broad-leaved forests, Binh Phuoc province.
In a United Nations (UN) staff member headquarters in South Sudan, we present a rare typhoid fever complicated by syncope due to relative bradycardia. A 25-year-old male presented to our hospital with a high fever, diarrhea, and no vomiting. He had no substantial medical background. He was diagnosed with an unspecified digestive disorder and received initial treatment. Two syncope episodes were recorded in the Level 1 hospital. He was referred to our hospital at the 30th hour and the third fainting occurred. Electrocardiogram showed bradycardia with a heart rate of 40 beats/min. The atropine test was negative; the initial diagnosis was sinus sickness syndrome. Microbiology tests later suggested typhoid infection. Then, the diagnosis changed to relative bradycardia caused by Salmonella typhi; and he was orally treated with the third-generation Quinolone antibiotic. He significantly improved and got discharged on the seventh day. In conclusion, typhoid remains a real and present threat to UN staff and civilians in South Sudan.
Butachlor has been extensively used to control weeds globally. In this study, the degradation performances of butachlor in soil by attenuation, augmentation with Pseudomonas sp. But1 and Pseudomonas sp. But, and mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) cultivation were determined. The results showed that the overall degradation rates in soil over 30 days were as follows: sterilized soil < non-sterilized soil < mung bean cultivation < bioaugmentation. The dissipation of the herbicide in non-sterilized soil was observed to be 58.3 ± 5.5%, while butachlor was completely removed from soil with both bioaugmentation and mung bean cultivation after 30 days. Moreover, mung bean cultivation stimulated rhizospheric bacteria growth and enhanced the degradation. These results showed that both bioaugmentation and mung bean cultivation significantly increased the butachlor degradation in soil.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
