The article discusses the possibility of integrating multiple methods of biotechnology, namely the elimination of oil pollution using biodegradation, biosorption of heavy metals, obtaining of microbial nanoparticles, technology of microbial fuel cells and others. Authors defined conditions and features of their possible integrated application.
The paper shows the results of monitoring studies of leafminer moth distribution on poplar trees in Kiev in 2012-2013 preferences of leafminer moth are determined depending on the damage degree of poplar leaves. Trophic polyphenism of leafminer moths is experimentally confirmed. It was grounded the possible explaining the emergence of leafminer moth on poplar trees as transition of widely distributed in Kiev horse-chestnut leafminer moth Cameraria ohridella on a new host-plant -poplar tree as a result of invasive parasitic mycobiota distribution on the leaves of horse-chestnut trees, such as powdery mildew Erysiphe flexuosa.
Article presents the results of experimental investigation applicability of plant fallen materials contaminated by powdery mildew fungus E. flexuosa as substrate in microbial fuel cell (MFC). MCFs were presented in form of Winogradsky's column.The measurements of generated voltage were carried out in MFCs with different composition during 5 weeks.
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.
