Our knowledge for the distribution of Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus) in Mediterranean Sea is very limited and fragmented. In current work habitat suitability modelling was applied to summer acoustic surveys data juveniles derived from north part (i.e. Gulf Lions, pelagic trawls held during Spanish waters, south Adriatic Sea, Strait Sicily North Aegean Sea) using generalized additive models along with satellite environmental bathymetry data. Bathymetry sea surface temperature...
Phosphogypsum (PG) was used as substrate for the multiplication of eight ornamental species; six by cuttings and two sowing. The results obtained showed a high rooting or percent germination plants: Ficus benjamina, Pelargonium × Hortorum, Washingtonia filifera, Eucalyptus camaldulensis, Hibiscus rosa sinensis Acalypha wilkesiana. For percentage 50% PG, only F. H. W. filifera rooting. Plant vigour (height biomass) depends on both species treatment. Two sensitivity to PG during propagation...
The geographic distribution of Acacia tortilis (Forssk.) Hayne subsp. raddiana (Savi) Brenan in Tunisia, is limited to the Bou-Hedma region (Bled Talah) where National Park Bou-Hedma, a UNESCO (1986) biosphere reserve, located. We have tested hypothesis that A. acts as foundation species result improvement soil conditions under its canopy (soil water availability and nutrient enrichment). herbaceous community (floristic composition, density, richness) characteristics nutrients water) were...
Abstract An experimental study of the relationship between phenological phases, water relations and climatic conditions was conducted on one shrub species, Spartidium saharae , in Saharan ecosystem southern Tunisia. The results show that potential remained significantly higher than recorded other desert shrubs. However, a S. precipitation not evident suggesting access to permanent ground may be factor this decoupling. Although shoot elongation species occurred outside wet season, shortage...
This investigation aims at assessing patterns of spatial genetic structure the teleost fish Sardina pilchardus across Siculo-Tunisian Strait (a well-known discontinuous biogeographic area) and delineating putative stocks within species. For this purpose, a total 180 specimens, collected from 11 locations stretching western eastern Mediterranean coasts Tunisia, were analysed genetically by means 18 nuclear allozyme loci. The outcome study revealed strong differentiation among populations,...
A total of 54 presumptive Vibrio alginolyticus strains isolated from a variety Tunisian marine biotopes, such as seawater, sediment samples some bathing areas, and aquaculture farms, were characterized identified by several biochemical tests. DNA polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis, extracellular products (ECP) outer membrane protein (OMP) profiling used to evaluate their usefulness tool investigate the diversity within this complex group....
Ce travail concerne l’étude de la relation entre le potentiel hydrique, et phénologie croissance chez Spartidium saharae Calligonum polygonoides subsp. comosum, deux arbustes zone saharienne Tunisie. Il s’intègre aussi dans cadre d’un vaste programme réhabilitation des écosystèmes dégradés, par réintroduction ressources phytogénétiques, autochtones raréfiées. Les principaux résultats obtenus montrent que sous ces conditions climatiques, hydrique taxons est relativement élevé. On observe...
