Advances in mathematical modelling of biofilm structures
(2007)Biofilms are found everywhere in natural waters forming complex microbial communities, playing an important role in ecosystem processes in streams and lakes and making their characterization a major research question. ... -
Allometric biomass models for european beech and silver fir: Testing approaches to minimize the demand for site‐specific biomass observations
(2020)In this paper, site‐specific allometric biomass models were developed for European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) and silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) to estimate the aboveground biomass in Șinca virgin forest, Romania. Several ... -
The bioactive profile of lettuce produced in a closed soilless system as configured by combinatorial effects of genotype and macrocation supply composition
(2020)The effect of cultivar and nutrient solution macrocation proportions (SK, SCa, SMg) on the bioactive content of hydroponically cultivated lettuce was evaluated on two lettuce cultivars (red and green-pigmented Salanova®) ... -
Biowastes alone and combined with sulfur affect the phytoavailability of Cu and Zn to barnyard grass and sorghum in a fluvial alkaline soil under dry and wet conditions
(2019)Management of degraded soils (i.e., metal contaminated soils, salt affected soils, and soils with low organic matter content) by applying biowastes (e.g., biosolids and compost) and inorganic soil amendments such as sulfur ... -
A catastrophic change in a european protected wetland: From harmful phytoplankton blooms to fish and bird kill
(2022)Understanding the processes that underlay an ecological disaster represents a major scientific challenge. Here, we investigated phytoplankton and zooplankton community changes before and during a fauna mass kill in a ... -
Circular bio-economy via energy transition supported by Fuzzy Cognitive Map modeling towards sustainable low-carbon environment
(2020)Several energy transition plans attempt to establish low-carbon practices towards a circular bio-economy in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. However, most actions only try to assuage the impacts of climate change ... -
The combined and single effect of salinity and copper stress on growth and quality of Mentha spicata plants
(2019)Copper is essential for plant growth, but in excess may cause adverse effects on plant physiology. Harmful effects are also caused by plant exposure to salinity (NaCl) due to the excessive use of fertilizers, soil degradation ... -
Corn and rice waste: a comparative and critical presentation of methods and current and potential uses of treated waste
(2008)Although corn and rice waste can be hardly classified among the most hazardous waste, their treatment is very important in view of the great volume of waste materials involved. In this review article, an update is provided ... -
Effect of macronutrients and of anaerobic digestate on the heterotrophic cultivation of Chlorella vulgaris grown with glycerol
(2022)The aim of this work was to investigate the kinetics of the heterotrophic growth of Chlorella vulgaris as a means of producing bio-oil for biodiesel production. Glycerol was used as the sole organic carbon substrate. ... -
EFFECTS OF BIOSOLIDS APPLICATION ON SWEET SORGHUM BIOMASS, WATER USE EFFICIENCY AND ETHANOL PRODUCTION
(2013)The effects of biosolids application to sweet sorghum crop were examined during the years 2009-2011 at Central Greece. Considering sweet sorghum as a possible alternative crop for biomass and bio-ethanol production in ... -
Enterobacter sp. AA26 gut symbiont as a protein source for Mediterranean fruit fly mass-rearing and sterile insect technique applications
(2019)Background: Insect species have established sophisticated symbiotic associations with diverse groups of microorganisms including bacteria which have been shown to affect several aspects of their biology, physiology, ecology ... -
Exploiting pre- and post-harvest metabolism in sweet sorghum genotypes to promote sustainable bioenergy production
(2020)Sweet sorghum's high yielding ability, low-input demands and tolerance to stresses, render it highly suitable for syrup and bioenergy production. Exploiting its biomass, however is hampered by the seasonality of its ... -
FAME and bio-oil properties and carbon yield coefficients of Chlorella sorokiniana cultivated heterotrophically with industrial effluents
(2022)The fatty acid (FA) distribution of bi-oil derived from Chlorella sorokiniana and FAME basic properties were examined. C. sorokiniana was cultivated heterotrophically in two very different growth media: a) glycerol and ... -
Haematology reference values for Dicentrarchus labrax and Sparus aurata: A systematic review and meta-analysis
(2022)Haematological parameters are frequently used as physiological indicators in aquaculture studies. These parameters also have extended applications in clinical evaluation, diagnosis and prognosis in fish health status. ... -
Harvesting of cotton residue for energy production
(1999)The possibility of collecting cotton stalks in Greece and using them for energy production was investigated. The production and properties of cotton stalks were studied and a system for collection of the aerial part is ... -
Hexavalent chromium availability and phytoremediation potential of Cichorium spinosum as affect by manure, zeolite and soil ageing
(2017)Cichorium spinosum (spiny chicory) is a wild edible vegetable, and a possible suitable species for Cr(VI)-phytoremediation. There are three approaches for altering Cr(VI) dynamics: reduction to Cr(III) by organic matter ... -
High-efficiency Extraction of Phenolics from Wheat Waste Biomass (Bran) by Combining Deep Eutectic Solvent, Ultrasound-assisted Pretreatment and Thermal Treatment
(2020)The aim of this study was the examination of the effect of ultrasonication pretreatment and thermal treatment of soft wheat bran (SWB) with a novel acidic, tertiary deep eutectic solvent, composed of glycerol/citric ... -
Irrigation and nitrogen application affect Greek oregano (Origanum vulgare ssp. hirtum) dry biomass, essential oil yield and composition
