Water withdrawal In the year the system transformation began (1989), total water withdrawal in the Oder River basin was 6.21 km3, including 4.55 km3 for production purposes, 1.03 km3 for the exploitation of water supply systems, and 0.63 km3 for the purposes of agriculture and forestry. In successive years, a statistically significant downward trend in […] More

Morphological, anatomical, and micromorphological features of pseudonectaries To understand the morphological nature of pseudonectaries, we first performed morphological, anatomical, and micromorphological studies. Under stereomicroscope, petals of N. damascena appear to be long-stalked, hair-bearing, doubly geniculated, and vertically bilabiate structures (Fig. 2a, b). Pseudonectaries, which are located at the distal geniculate bend of the lower petal lip, […] More
