Support vector machines (SVMs) methods were used to predict distribution pattern of Azolla
filiculoides (Lam.) which is an invasive aquatic fern at Selkeh Wildlife Refuge located in …

Alien species have the abilities to alter the ecosystems they invade. We used classification
trees (CTs) to predict the distribution of an exotic species, Azolla filiculoides (Lam.), at …

population. More than 90% of the world's rice is grown and consumed in Asia alone, where …

From being a poor cousin to maize, wheat, and tomato for genetic knowledge as recently as
the 1980s, rice has become a model plant for molecular genetic research. Numerous …

The three diploid (B. nigra, B. oleracea, B. campestris) and three allotetraploid (B. carinata,
B. juncea, B. napus) species of Brassica, known as the “U-triangle” are one of the best …

A crucial element in modelling habitat requirements of any alien plant species is selection of
the most important predictive variables. A database consisting of measurements collected at …

Doubled haploids (DH) were obtained from two interspecific hybrids between Brassica
napus and Brassica rapa. Seeds of doubled haploid plants differed in colour and size. The …
