  • The ecology of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi 
    Willis, A.; Rodrigues, B.F.; Harris, P.J.C. (Critical Reviews in Plant Sciences. 32(1); 2013; 1-20.)
    Arbuscular mycorrhiza is a mutually beneficial biological association between species in the fungal phylum Glomeromycota and higher plants roots. The symbiosis is thought to have afforded green plants the opportunity to ...
  • Wojnowicia viburni, sp nov., from China and its phylogenetic placement 
    Wijayawardene, N.N.; Song, Y.; Bhat, D.J.; McKenzie, E.H.C.; Chukeatirote, E.; Wang, Y.; Hyde, K.D. (Sydowia. 65(1); 2013; 129-138.)
    A new species of Wojnowicia was isolated from leaves of Viburnum utile in Guizhou Province, China. The new species, Wojnowicia viburni, is described, illustrated and compared with similar species. It differs from other ...
  • Distribution of some obnoxious weeds in north-western Ghats of India 
    Patil, B.B.; Janarthanam, M.K. (Indian Journal of Weed Science. 45(4); 2013; 267-272.)
    Flora and fauna of Western Ghats, a biodiversity hot spot are under major threat due to various factors. Invasion of exotic species has been considered as one of the major threat in the area. In the present study, potential ...
  • Systematic position of Phyllanthus talbotii (Phyllanthaceae), a critically endangered species of Western Ghats, India 
    Naik, Sidhesh S.; Pagare, R.S.; Krishnan, S.; Janarthanam, M.K. (Rheedea. 23; 2013; 13-18.)
    Phyllanthus talbotii Sedgw. (Phyllanthaceae) is endemic to Western Ghats regions of Goa and Karnataka, India and is critically endangered. For a long time, it was known only from the type collection and a subsequent ...
  • Taxonomic status of Strobilanthes warreensis (Acanthaceae), an endemic species of Western Ghats, India 
    Mascarenhas, M.E.; Janarthanam, M.K. (Rheedea. 23; 2013; 1-6.)
    Strobilanthes warreensis Dalzell (Acanthaceae) is endemic to the Western Ghats. Due to its close resemblance to S. ciliatus Nees, it has been critically studied along with the latter and evaluated for its taxonomic status ...
  • The neglected natural resources of Goa 
    Kamat, N.M. (Atharva. 8(3); 2013; 34pp.)
  • Modified Strullu and Romand (MSR) medium devoid of sucrose promotes higher in vitro germination in Rhizophagus irregularis 
    D'Souza, J.; Rodrigues, K.M.; Rodrigues, B.F. (Journal of Mycology and Plant Pathology. 43(2); 2013; 240-242.)
    Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are obligate symbionts belonging to the phylum Glomeromycota (Schuler et al 2001), that cannot complete their life cycles without establishing a functional symbiosis with a host plant. ...
  • Biodiversity of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal (AM) fungi in mangroves of Goa in West India 
    D'Souza, J.; Rodrigues, B.F. (Journal of Forestry Research. 24(3); 2013; 515-523.)
    Seventeen mangrove species of eight families at seven riverine and fringe habitats in Goa West India were surveyed for Arbuscular Mycorrhizal (AM) fungal diversity. Sixteen species were found to be mycorrhizal and one ...
  • Seasonal diversity of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal fungi in mangroves of Goa, India 
    D'Souza, J.; Rodrigues, B.F. (International Journal of Biodiversity. 2013; 2013; Article ID 196527-.)
    Seasonal dynamics of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal community composition in three common mangrove plant species, namely, Acanthus ilicifolius, Excoecaria agallocha, and Rhizophora mucronata, from two sites in Goa, ...
