There are other milder forms of thederiasis that resemble the disease caused by T parva infection. They also primarily affect catde and are transmitted by ticks. Causative organisms iaclude Theileria annulata responsible for tropical thieleriasis, tropical piroplasmosis, Egyptian fever, and Mediterranean Coast fever. These affect ox, zebu, and water buffalo. Endemic areas iaclude northern Africa, southeastern Europe, the southern part of the former USSR, and Asia. Theileria mutans is the cause of benign bovine thieleriasis, Marico calf disease, and mild gad sickness. It affects ox and zebu ia Africa, Asia, southern Europe, England, the former USSR, AustraUa, and North America. [Pg.275]

Polyethylene pellets were Very abundant" on the Mediterranean coast of Spain, particularly near plastics fabrication factories (39, 40). Wastes from these factories and spillage during cargo loading and transport of raw materials were considered to be the major sources. Similarly, wastes from local plastic fabrication factories were thought to be the source of pellets on the beaches of Lebanon (40). [Pg.233]

Copper compounds are used in agriculture to treat mildew and other plant diseases in the food industry as preservatives, additives, or coloring agents in preservatives of wood, leather, and fabrics in coin manufacture and in water treatment (ATSDR1990 Roncero et al. 1992). The use of copper-containing pesticides is traditional along the Mediterranean Coast, especially the use of Bordeaux mixture, a copper sulfate-based fungicide that has been widely used for more than a century to... [Pg.130]

As mentioned above, the origin of pyrethrum is the Dalmatian region of the former Yugoslavia on the Mediterranean coast of the Adriatic Sea, east of Italy. It is said that pyrethrum was discovered in 1694. While inhabitants of the pyrethrumgrowing region seem to have already known about the properties of this plant and to have utilized it in powder form for insecticide applications, its insecticidal activity was verified in around 1840. [Pg.3]

The Middle Eastern traditions stem from the ancient civilizations of the area known as the Fertile Crescent. This area stretches from the eastern Mediterranean coast that is now part of Syria, Lebanon, and Israel, to the fertile lands that exist between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers as they flow to the Persian Gulf. To the ancient Greeks this eastern end was known as Mesopotamia and it is now part of Syria, Turkey, Iran, and Iraq. Unlike Egypt, with its insular and stable culture, the Fertile Crescent was inhabited by several cultures, which migrated, conquered, and merged over the centuries. [Pg.38]

The chaparral is typical of the Mediterranean coasts, except Libya and Egypt. It is also foxmd in California, southern Australia, and around Cape Town. The latter isolated spot supports many micro-habitats, highly significant for plant biodiversity. [Pg.27]

TTPC pipeline made up of two lines each 370-kilometer long, with three compression stations. The pipeline goes from Algeria across Tunisia from Oued Saf Saf at the Algerian border to Cap Bon on the Mediterranean coast where it links with the TMPC pipeline. [Pg.64]

Litmus is a purple dye extracted from lichens and sea weeds. Lichens grow abundantly along the Mediterranean coast. Litmus readily dissolves in water to form a purple solution. This solution is used as an indicator to find out whether a solution is acidic or alkaline. Acid turns the litmus solution red and the base turns the litmus solution blue. [Pg.58]

Although Syrian rue was native only to Central Asia and Syria, it now grows wild along the Mediterranean coasts of Europe, Africa and the Middle East. It is esteemed from Asia Minor across to India and northeast Tibet. Its bitter, brown seeds contain /3-carboIines identical to those in psychedelic Banisteriopsis vines and in about the same proportions. [Pg.436]

The isolation of sarcodictyin A 42 (Scheme 6.3) began with a stolonifer coral Sarcodictyon roseum collected in 1986 off Cap Bear on the French Mediterranean coast.380 Soon afterwards, a series of sarcodictyins C, D, E and F414 were also found from the same species. Two other soft coral sources of sarcodictyins were later discovered—one from a South African Eleutherobia aurea3S1 and another from Bellonella albiflora378 collected in Southern Japan, which also yielded the (Z) diastereomer of sarcodictyin A. [Pg.191]

For comparison, similar types of materials from another site were sampled. Samples 1003 and 1004 are from Tel Akko on the Mediterranean coast and are attributed by the excavator to the Sherden, a group of coast-dwelling peoples (1400-1200 B.C.). Sample 1003 is from Akko VI, and 1004 is from Akko VII. [Pg.201]

The reverse interpretation can be applied to presently air-filled coastal caves that contain speleothems with the rough textured overgrowths characteristic of deposition under water. Such dated deposits observed on Mallorca were correlated with sea level highs on the Mediterranean coast (Vesica et al, 2000). [Pg.154]

Very few palms occur in temperate regions. In Europe, for example, there are only two native palms the dwarf fan-palm (Chamaerops humilis), which is found in dry sandy and rocky places along parts of the Mediterranean coast, reaching the latitude 44°N, and the Cretan pahn Phoenix theophrasti), which is an extremely rare pahn found only on the eastern side of Crete. In the Himalayas at 32°N, the pahn Trachycarpus reaches an altitude of 7,875 ft (2,400 m) where snow lasts from November to March. In North America, the genus... [Pg.741]
