A pilot-scale treatment system was developed to manage winery wastewater (WWW) generated by small and medium wineries. The incorporated three stages: pre-treatment for suspended solids removal a two-step aerobic biotreatment. biotreatment phase utilized bioaugmented bioreactor with encapsulated Pseudomonas putida F1, employing the Small Bioreactor Platform (SBP) technology. This innovative encapsulation method enhanced breakdown of recalcitrant compounds accelerated biodegradation process....
The order Pezizales (Ascomycota) consists of cup and truffle fungi growing in a wide range habitats geographical zones worldwide, exhibiting diverse nutritional behaviors. In Israel, morphological studies have designated most as saprotrophs. We re-screened mushrooms collected northern Israel between 2020–2022 using molecular tools based on DNA sequences partial large subunit rRNA (28S), internal transcribed spacer (ITS), heat shock protein (Hsp90) regions, along with macro images each...
Morchella rufobrunnea is a saprobic edible mushroom, found in range of ecological niches, indicating nutritional adjustment to different habitats and possible interaction with soil prokaryotic microbiome (SPM). Using the 16S rRNA gene, we examined SPM M. that appeared natural habitat Northern Israel. Three sample types were included: bare without beneath young mushroom initials mature fruiting body. developmental stage was significantly associated changes bacterial populations (PERMANOVA, p...
The research presented stemmed from the observations that female plants of annual dioecious Mercurialis annua outlive male plants. This led to hypothesis M. would be more tolerant stress than was addressed in a comprehensive way, by comparing morphological, biochemical and metabolomics changes during their development under salinity. There were practically no differences between genders vegetative physiological parameters. However, salinity conditions, produced significantly new reproductive...
Constructed wetlands (CW) containing clinoptilolite zeolite and planted with five halophytes (Sesvium portulacastrum, Juncus effusus, Suaeda monoica, Inula crithmoides Sarcocornia fruticosa) were irrigated treated dairy farm effluent. The CW operated for two years retention time ranging from 2 to 7 d. Plant species did not affect SAR which was reduced in all treatments 4.85 2.59 (mmol/L)0.5 due ion exchange zeolite. Halophytes increased evapotranspiration 30 mm d−1 countered sodium removal....
