Mangroves are critically important components of coastal ecosystems. However, their survival is globally threatened, mostly due to impacts resulting from human activities. Reports mangrove deaths associated with pathogens and insect pests have emerged during the past few years. In South Africa, species under pressure both environmental anthropogenic disturbances, potentially making them more susceptible diseases. We present most detailed evaluation possible biotic causes decline in Africa...
Endophytic fungi are well known for their association with a wide variety of plant species, likewise, mangrove plants harboring vast valuable diversity bioactive compounds originating from the secondary metabolism that is synthesized in part as response to chemical defense against microorganisms, hostile environments, and antagonistic insects. The objective present study was analyze composition endophytic isolated trees Buenaventura, Colombia. Analyses DNA sequences internal transcribed...
Los manglares ofrecen una variedad de servicios económicos, ecológicos y culturales. Sin embargo, a pesar su importancia la diversidad que estos albergan, las actividades antrópicas han contribuido deterioro. estudios sobre hongos endófitos asociados ecosistemas aún son limitados en Colombia. Este grupo incluye amplia patógenos oportunistas menudo con árboles afectados por ambientales antropogénicas. Con el fin contribuir al conocimiento mangle Reserva Natural San Pedro, Buenaventura,...
