considered ducks. Ducks are mostlyaquatic birds, mostly smaller than the
swans and geese, and may be found in both fresh water and sea water.
Ducks are sometimes confused with several types of unrelated water birds with
similar forms, such as loons or divers, grebes, gallinules, and coots.

Etymology
A male duck is called a drake and the female duck is called a duck, or
in ornithology a hen.[citation needed]
Mallard drake
Morphology
Ducks Foraging along the Lake Okanagan shoreline in Winter near Maude
Roxby Wetlands
The ducks have a cosmopolitan distribution. A number of species manage to live
on sub-Antarctic islands like South Georgia and the Auckland Islands.
Numerous ducks have managed to establish themselves on oceanic islands
such as Hawaii,New Zealand and Kerguelen, although many of these species
and populations are threatened or have become extinct.
Some duck species, mainly those breeding in the temperate and Arctic Northern
Hemisphere, are migratory; those in the tropics, however, are generally not.
Some ducks, particularly in Australia where rainfall is patchy and erratic, are
nomadic, seeking out the temporary lakes and pools that form after localised
heavy rain.[citation needed]
Predators
Ringed teal
Worldwide, ducks have many predators. Ducklings are particularly vulnerable,
since their inability to fly makes them easy prey not only for predatory birds but
also large fish like pike, crocodilians, predatory testudines such as the Alligator
snapping turtle, and other aquatic hunters, including fish-eating birds such
asherons. Ducks' nests are raided by land-based predators, and brooding
females may be caught unaware on the nest by mammals, such as foxes, or
large birds, such as hawks or owls.
Adult ducks are fast fliers, but may be caught on the water by large aquatic
predators including big fish such as the North American muskie and the
Europeanpike. In flight, ducks are safe from all but a few predators such as
humans and the peregrine falcon, which regularly uses its speed and strength to
catch ducks.

Around the world[edit]
Africa[edit]
South Africa[edit]
The large Indian population in KwaZulu Natal consumes fish roe in the form of
slightly sour curry or battered and deep fried.
Americas[edit]
United States[edit]
In the United States, several kinds of roe are produced: salmon from the Pacific
coast, shad and herring species like theAmerican
shad and alewife, mullet, paddlefish, American bowfin, and some species
of sturgeon. Shad, pike and other roe are sometimes pan-fried with bacon. Spot
Prawn roe (hard to find) is also a delicacy from the North Pacific. Flounder roe,
pan-fried and served with grits is popular on the Southeastern coast.
Canada[edit]
fried (after being coated with red chilli paste) and also as a thick curry (gashi). In
the state of Kerala, roe is deep fried in coconut oil, and is considered a delicacy.
A common method of quick preparation is to wrap the roe in wet banana leaves
and cook it over charcoal embers.
In Odisha and West Bengal, roe of several fresh-water fish, including hilsa, are
eaten, the roe being cooked separately or along with the fish, the latter method
being preferred for all but large fishes. Roe, either light or deep-fried are also
eaten as snacks or appetizers before a major meal.
Iran[edit]
In the Caspian provinces of Gilan and Mazandaran, several types of roe are
used. Called ashpal or ashbal, roe is consumed grilled, cured, salted, or mixed
with other ingredients. If salted or cured, it is consumed as a condiment. If used
fresh, it is usually grilled, steamed, or mixed with eggs and fried to form
a custard-like dish called "Ashpal Kuku".
Besides the much sought-after caviar, roe from kutum (also known as Caspian
white fish or Rutilus frisii kutum), Caspian roach (called "kuli"
in Gileki), bream (called "kulmeh" in Gileki), and Caspian salmon are highly
prized. Roe from carp is less common and barbel roe is also occasionally used.
Israel[edit]
Several sections of the Israeli cuisine include roe. In Modern Hebrew, roe is
commonly referred to by its Russian name "ikra" (). When necessary, the
color is also mentioned: white or pink, as appropriate. Israeli "white ikra" is
commonly made of carp or herring eggs, while "red ikra" is made of flathead
mullet eggs or, in rarer cases, salmon eggs. The term "caviar" is separate, and
denotes only sturgeon eggs.
Ikra is served as a starter dish, to be eaten with pita or similar breads,
particularly in Arab restaurants. It can also be purchased in stores, in standardsized plastic packages. In home cooking it is similarly served as a starter dish.
In Judaism, roe from kosher fish--fish with fins and scales--is considered kosher.
Like fish in general, it is consideredpareve. Roe is considered kosher only if the
fish from which it's harvested is kosher as well. This means that sturgeon roe is
not considered kosher from an Orthodox Jewish perspective.
For most Orthodox Jewish consumers who keep kosher, roe or caviar must be
processed under kosher supervision as well. The only exception to this rule is
red roe, thanks to a widely accepted responsa by the Bais Yosef.[2]
Japan[edit]
Sujiko (/) - Also salmon roe. The difference is that sujiko is still
inside its sac when it is prepared. It also has a different color; sujiko is red to
dark-red while ikura is lighter in color, sometimes almost orange. Sujiko is
also sweeter in taste.
Uni (/) - Sea urchin roe, soft and melting. Color ranges from
orange to pale yellow. Humans consume the reproductive organs ("roe")
either raw or briefly cooked. Sea urchin roe is a popular food in Japan, and it
is called "uni" in Japanese sushi cuisine. Apart from domestic consumption, a
number of other countries export the sea urchin to Japan in order to meet its
demand throughout the country. Traditionally considered an aphrodisiac, sea
urchin roe has been found to contain the cannabinoid anandamide.[3]
Karasumi (/) - is a specialty of Nagasaki and along with saltpickled sea urchin roe and Konowata one of the three chinmi of Japan. It is
made by desalinating salt pickled mullet roe and sundrying it.
Korea[edit]
All kinds of fish roe are widely eaten in Korean cuisine, including the popular sea
urchin, salmon, herring, flying fish, cod, among others. Myeongran jeot ()
refers to the jeotgal (salted fermented seafood) made with pollock roe seasoned
with chili pepper powders. It is commonly consumed as banchan, small dish
accompanied with cooked rice or ingredient for altang (), a kind of jjigae
(Korean stew).
Lebanon[edit]
Sea urchin roe, or toutia as it is known locally, is eaten directly from the sea
urchin shell fresh using a small spoon. Some people add a twist of lemon juice
to the roe and eat it in Lebanese flat bread.
Malaysia[edit]
Particularly in Sarawak, Malaysia, Toli Shad fish roe is a popular delicacy among
locals and tourists. The roe is usually found in the street market in Sarawak's
capital city of Kuching. The roe can be sold for up to 19 USD per 100 grams and
is considered expensive among locals, but the price can reach up to 30 USD in
other states of Malaysia.
The roe is usually salted before sale but fresh roe is also available. The salted
roe is usually pan fried or steamed and eaten with steamed rice. The fish itself is
also usually salted and served along with the roe.
New Zealand[edit]
The Maori people and other New Zealanders eat sea urchin roe, called "Kina".
[4]
Kina is sold in fishshops, supermarkets, and alongside the road. Most
commercial Kina is imported from the Chatham Islands.
Europe[edit]
All around the Mediterranean, botargo is an esteemed specialty made of the
cured roe pouch of flathead mullet, tuna, orswordfish; it is called bottarga
(Italian), poutargue or boutargue (French), botarga (Spanish), batarekh (Arabic)
or avgotaraho (Greek ).
Denmark[edit]
Lumpfish (stenbider) roe is used extensively in Danish cuisine, on top of halved
or sliced hard-boiled eggs, on top of mounds of shrimp, or in combination with
other fish or seafood. Another commonly eaten roe is that from the cod (torsk).
France[edit]
Sea urchin roe (oursin in French) is eaten directly from the sea and in
restaurants, where it is served both by itself and in seafood platters, usually
spooned from the shell of the animal. Crab, shrimp and prawn roe still attached
to those animals is also considered a delicacy.
Finland[edit]
Common whitefish and especially vendace from the fresh water lakes in Finland
are renowned for the excellent delicate taste of the roe. Roe is served as
topping of toast or on blini with onion and smetana.
Greece[edit]
of the European carp; pike, herring, cod are also popular. Fried soft roe is also a
popular dish. Sturgeon roe is a delicacy normally served at functions.

Pistacia terebinthus, known commonly as terebinth and turpentine tree, is a species of Pistacia, native
to the Canary Islands, and the Mediterranean regionfrom the western regions of Morocco,
and Portugal to Greece, western and southeast Turkey. In the eastern shores of the Mediterranean
sea Syria,Lebanon and Israel a similar species, Pistacia palaestina, fills the same ecological niche as
this species and is also known as terebinth.

Description[edit]
It is a species of flowering plant belonging to the family Anacardiaceae (thecashew family). It is a
small deciduous tree or large shrub growing to 10 m tall. The leaves are compound, 1020 cm long, odd
pinnate with five to eleven opposite glossy oval leaflets, the leaflets 26 cm long and 13 cm broad.
Theflowers are reddish-purple, appearing with the new leaves in early spring. The fruitconsists of small,
globular drupes 57 mm long, red to black when ripe. All parts of the plant have a strong resinous smell.
It is a dioecious tree, i.e. exists as male and female specimens. For a viable population both genders must
be present. The oblong leaf is bright green, leathery, with 10 cm long or more with 3-9 leaflets. Leaves
alternate, leathery and compound paripinnate (no terminal leaflet) with 3 or 6 deep green leaflets. They are
generally larger and rounder than the leaves of the mastic, reminiscent of the leaves of carob tree. The
flowers range from purple to green, the fruit is the size of a pea and turns from red to brown, depending on
the degree of maturation. The whole plant emits a strong smell: bitter, resinous or medicinal. In the
vegetative period they develop "galls" in a goat's horn shaped (from which the plant gets the name
cornicabra, the common name in Spanish), that occur on the leaves and leaflets which have been bitten by
insects. The species propagates by seeds and shoots. Although marred by the presence of galls, is a very
strong and resistant tree which survives in degraded areas where other species have been eliminated.
Pistacia terebinthus is a plant related to Pistacia lentiscus, with which hybridizes frequently in contact
zones. The cornicabra is more abundant in the mountains and inland and the mastic is usually found more
frequently in areas where the Mediterranean influence of the sea moderates the climate. Mastic tree does
not reach the size of the Pistacia terebinthus, but the hybrids are very difficult to distinguish. The mastic
has winged stalks to its leaflets, i.e., they are flattened and side fins, whereas these stems in Cornicabra
are simple. In the Eastern Mediterranean Coast, Syria, Lebanon and Israel, a similar species, Pistacia
palaestina, fills the same ecological niche of this species and is also known as turpentine. On the west
coast of the Mediterranean, Canary Islands and Middle East, Pistacia terebinthus can be confused
with Pistacia atlantica.
Habitat[edit]
It prefers relatively moist areas, up to 600 m in height. Supports Mediterranean summer drought and frost
more intense than mastic. The plant is common in the garrigue and maquis. Appears in deciduous and oak.
It has a gray trunk very aromatic, may have multiple trunks or stems when grown as a shrub. Usually
reached 5 m. in height, although in rare cases can reach 10 m. Pistacia terebinthus is one of the
Anacardiaceae species present in Europe, it is a family of about 600 tropical species. Can be found in
meso-and Thermo floors to 1,500 meters above sea level. Pistacia terebinthus is more moisture
demanding than the mastic and more resistant to cold. Requires a sunny exposure and average soils,
tolerating lime and some salt, often grows near the sea, deep ravines and near salt lakes and streams.
History[edit]
Historian of Mycenae John Chadwick believes that the terebinth is the plant called ki-ta-no in some of
the Linear B tablets. He cites the work of a Spanish scholar, J.L. Melena, who had found "an ancient
lexicon which showed that kritanos was another name for the turpentine tree, and that the Mycenaean
spelling could represent a variant form of this word." [2]
The word "terebinth" is used (at least in some translations) for a tree mentioned in the Hebrew
Scriptures (or Old Testament), where the Hebrew word "elah" (plural "elim") is used. This probably refers
to Pistacia palaestina which is common in the area. The Latin name is underlain by the Ancient Greek
name , which, in turn, is underlain by a pre-Greek Pelasgian word, marked by the characteristic
consonant complex .
Terebinth from Oricum is referred to in Virgil's Aeneid, Book 10, line 136, whereAscanius in battle is
compared to "ivory skilfully inlaid in [...] Orician terebinth"("inclusum[...] Oricia terebintho [...] ebur").
Terebinth is referred to by Robin Lane Fox in Alexander the Great: "When a Persian king took the throne,
he attendedPasargadae, site of King Cyrus's tomb, and dressed in a rough leather uniform to eat a ritual
meal of figs, sour milk and leaves of terebinth."[3]
Uses[edit]
It is used as a source for turpentine, possibly the earliest known source. The turpentine of the terebinth is
now called Chian, Scio, or Cyprian turpentine.
The fruits are used in Cyprus for baking of a specialty village bread. In Crete, where the plant is
called tsikoudia, it is used to flavor the local variety of pomace brandy, also called tsikoudia. In the Northern
Sporades the shoots are used as a vegetable (called tsitsravla).The plant is rich in tannin and resinous
substances and was used for its aromatic and medicinal properties in classical Greece. A mild sweet
scented gum can be produced from the bark, and galls often found on the plant are used
for tanning leather. Recently an anti-inflammatory triterpene has been extracted from these galls.
[4]
In Turkey, where it is known as menengi or bttm, a coffee-like beverage known as menengi kahvesi[5] is
made from the roasted fruit and a soap[6] is made from the oil. Terebinth resin was used as a wine
preservative in ancient Israel [7] and the ancient Near East.[8]

Muskmelon (Cucumis melo) is a species of melon that has been developed into many cultivated
varieties. These include smooth-skinned varieties such ashoneydew, Crenshaw, and casaba, and different
netted cultivars (cantaloupe,Persian melon, and Santa Claus or Christmas melon). The Armenian
cucumber is also a variety of muskmelon, but its shape, taste, and culinary uses more closely resemble
those of a cucumber. The large number of cultivars in this species approaches that found in wild cabbage,
though morphological variation is not as extensive. It is a fruit of a type called pepo.
Muskmelon is native to Iran, Anatolia and Armenia, with a secondary center including
northwest India and Afghanistan.

Muskmelons are monoecious plants. They do not cross with watermelon, cucumber, pumpkin, or squash,
but varieties within the species intercross frequently.[2] The genome of Cucumis melo L. was first sequenced
in 2012.[3]

the Daily Value, DV) of vitamin A (68% DV) and vitamin C (61% DV), with other nutrients at a negligible
level.[4] Melons are 90% water and 9% carbohydrates, with less than 1% each of protein and fat.[4]
Uses[edit]
In addition to their consumption when fresh, melons are sometimes dried. Other varieties are cooked, or
grown for their seeds, which are processed to produce melon oil. Still other varieties are grown only for
their pleasant fragrance.[5] TheJapanese liqueur, Midori, is flavored with muskmelon.

Trinomial name
Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus var. lanatus, family Cucurbitaceae) is a vine-like (scrambler and
trailer) flowering plant originally from southern Africa. It is a large, sprawling annual plant with coarse, hairy
pinnately-lobed leaves and white to yellow flowers. It is grown for its edible fruit, also known as
awatermelon, which is a special kind of berry botanically called a pepo. The fruit has a smooth hard rind,
usually green with dark green stripes or yellow spots, and a juicy, sweet interior flesh, usually deep red to
pink, but sometimes orange, yellow, or white, with many seeds.
Considerable breeding effort has been put into disease-resistant varieties and into developing a seedless
strain. Many cultivars are available, producing mature fruit within 100 days of planting the crop. The fruit
can be eaten raw or cooked.

History
The watermelon is thought to have originated in southern Africa, where it is found growing wild. It reaches
maximum genetic diversity there, with sweet, bland and bitter forms. In the 19th century, Alphonse de
Candolle[1] considered the watermelon to be indigenous to tropical Africa.[2] Citrullus colocynthis is often
considered to be a wild ancestor of the watermelon and is now found native in north and west Africa.
However, it has been suggested on the basis of chloroplast DNA investigations, that the cultivated and wild
watermelon diverged independently from a common ancestor, possibly C. ecirrhosus fromNamibia.[3]
Evidence of its cultivation in the Nile Valley has been found from the second millennium BC onward.
Watermelon seeds have been found at Twelfth Dynastysites and in the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun.[4]
In the 7th century, watermelons were being cultivated in India and by the 10th century had reached China,
which is today the world's single largest watermelon producer. Moorish invaders introduced the fruit into
Europe and there is evidence of it being cultivated in Crdoba in 961 and also in Seville in 1158. It spread
northwards through southern Europe, perhaps limited in its advance by summer temperatures being
insufficient for good yields. The fruit had begun appearing in European herbals by 1600, and was widely
planted in Europe in the 17th century as a minor garden crop.[5]
European colonists and slaves from Africa introduced the watermelon into theNew World. Spanish settlers
were growing it in Florida in 1576, and it was being grown in Massachusetts by 1629, and by 1650 was
being cultivated in Peru,Brazil and Panama as well as in many British and Dutch colonies. Around the
same time, Native Americans were cultivating the crop in the Mississippi valley and Florida. Watermelons
were rapidly accepted in Hawaii and other Pacific islands when they were introduced there by explorers
such as Captain James Cook.[5]
Description
Watermelon slices
The watermelon is an annual plant with long, weak, trailing or climbing stems which are five-angled and up
to 3 m (10 ft) long. Young growth is densely woolly with yellowish-brown hairs which disappear as the plant
ages. The leaves are stemmed and are alternate, large and pinnately-lobed, stiff and rough when old. The
plant has branching tendrils. The flowers grow singly in the leaf axils and the corolla is white or yellow
inside and greenish-yellow on the outside. The flowers are unisexual, with male and female flowers
occurring on the same plant (monoecious). The male flowers predominate at the beginning of the season
and the female flowers, which develop later, have inferior ovaries. The styles are united into a single
column and the large fruit is a kind of modified berry called a pepo. This has a thick rind (exocarp) and
fleshy center (mesocarp and endocarp).[6] Wild plants have fruits up to 20 cm (8 in) in diameter while
cultivated varieties may exceed 60 cm (24 in). The rind of this fruit is mid- to dark green and usually mottled
or striped, and the flesh contains numerous pips and is red, orange, pink, yellow, green or white. [5][7]
Variety improvement
Charles Fredric Andrus, a horticulturist at the USDA Vegetable Breeding Laboratory in Charleston, South
Carolina, set out to produce a disease-resistant and wilt-resistant watermelon. The result, in 1954, was
"that gray melon from Charleston". Its oblong shape and hard rind made it easy to stack and ship. Its
adaptability meant it could be grown over a wide geographical area. It produced high yields and was
resistant to the most serious watermelon diseases: anthracnose andfusarium wilt.[8] Others were also
working on disease-resistant varieties; J. M. Crall at the University of Florida produced "Jubilee" in 1963
and C. V. Hall of Kansas State University produced "Crimson sweet" the following year. These are no
longer grown to any great extent, but their lineage has been further developed into hybrid varieties with
higher yields, better flesh quality and attractive appearance. [5] Another objective of plant breeders has been
the elimination of the seeds which occur scattered throughout the flesh. This has been achieved through
the use of triploid varieties, but these are sterile, and the cost of producing the seed, through crossing
a tetraploid parent with a normal diploid parent, is high.[5]
Today, farmers in approximately 44 states in the United States grow watermelon commercially. Georgia,
Florida, Texas,California and Arizona are the United States' largest watermelon producers. This nowcommon fruit is often large enough that groceries often sell half or quarter melons. Some smaller, spherical
varieties of watermelon, both red- and yellow-fleshed, are sometimes called "icebox melons". [9] The largest
recorded fruit was grown in Tennessee in 2013 and weighed 159 kilograms (351 pounds). [10]

Watermelons are tropical or subtropical plants and need temperatures higher than about 25 C (77 F) to
thrive. On a garden scale, seeds are usually sown in pots under cover and transplanted into well-drained
sandy loam with a pH of between 5.5 and 7 and medium nitrogen levels. Aphids, fruit flies and root-knot
nematodes attack this crop, and if humidity levels are high, the plants are prone to plant diseases, such
as powdery mildew and mosaic virus.[12]
Seedless watermelon
For commercial plantings, one beehiveper acre (4,000 m2 per hive) is the minimum recommendation by
the USDepartment of Agriculture forpollination of conventional, seeded varieties. Because seedless hybrids
have sterile pollen, pollinizer rows of varieties with viable pollen must also be planted. Since the supply of
viable pollen is reduced and pollination is much more critical in producing the seedless variety, the
recommended number of hives per acre, or pollinator density, increases to three hives per acre
(1,300 m2 per hive). Watermelons have a longer growing period than other melons, and can often take 85
days or more from the time of transplanting for the fruit to mature.[13]
In Japan and other parts of the Far East, varieties are often grown that are susceptible to fusarium wilt, and
these may begrafted onto disease-resistant rootstocks.[5] Farmers of the Zentsuji region of Japan found a
way to grow cubic watermelons, by growing the fruits in glass boxes and letting them naturally assume the
shape of the receptacle.[14] The cubic shape was originally designed to make the melons easier to stack and
store, but the cubic watermelons are often more than double the price of normal ones, and much of their
appeal to consumers is in their novelty. Pyramid-shaped watermelons have also been developed and
any polyhedral shape may potentially also be used. These shaped watermelon are often harvested before
optimal ripeness. Because they are bitter instead of sweet, the shaped fruits are considered ornamental
instead of food.[15]
Varieties
The more than 1200[16] cultivars of watermelon range in weight from less than one to more than 90
kilograms (200 lb); the flesh can be red, orange, yellow or white. [13]
The 'Carolina Cross' produced the current world record watermelon, weighing 159 kilograms (351
pounds).[10] It has green skin, red flesh and commonly produces fruit between 29 and 68 kilograms (65
and 150 lb). It takes about 90 days from planting to harvest.[17]
The 'Golden Midget' has a golden rind and pink flesh when ripe, and takes 70 days from planting to
harvest.[18]
The 'Orangeglo' has a very sweet orange flesh, and is a large, oblong fruit weighing 914 kg (20
31 lb). It has a light green rind with jagged dark green stripes. It takes about 90100 days from planting
to harvest.[19]
The 'Moon and Stars' variety was created in 1926. [20] The rind is purple/black and has many small,
yellow circles (stars) and one or two large, yellow circles (moon). The melon weighs 923 kg (20
51 lb).[21] The flesh is pink or red and has brown seeds. The foliage is also spotted. The time from
planting to harvest is about 90 days.[22]
The 'Cream of Saskatchewan' has small, round fruits about 25 cm (9.8 in) in diameter. It has a thin,
light and dark green striped rind, and sweet white flesh with black seeds. It can grow well in cool
climates. It was originally brought toSaskatchewan, Canada, by Russian immigrants. The melon takes
8085 days from planting to harvest.[23]
The 'Melitopolski' has small, round fruits roughly 2830 cm (1112 in) in diameter. It is an early
ripening variety that originated from the Astrakhan region of Russia, an area known for cultivation of
watermelons. The Melitopolski watermelons are seen piled high by vendors in Moscow in the summer.
This variety takes around 95 days from planting to harvest.[24]
The 'Densuke' watermelon has round fruit up to 11 kg (24 lb). The rind is black with no stripes or
spots. It is grown only on the island of Hokkaido, Japan, where up to 10,000 watermelons are produced
every year. In June 2008, one of the first harvested watermelons was sold at an auction for 650,000
yen (US$6,300), making it the most expensive watermelon ever sold. The average selling price is
generally around 25,000 yen ($250).[25]
Many cultivars are no longer grown commercially because of their thick rind, but seeds may be
available among home gardeners and specialty seed companies. This thick rind is desirable for making
watermelon pickles, and some old cultivars favoured for this purpose include 'Tom Watson', 'Georgia
Rattlesnake', and 'Black Diamond'.[26]

In a 100 gram serving, watermelon fruit supplies 30 calories and low amounts of essential nutrients (table).
Only vitamin C is present in appreciable content at 10% of the Daily Value (table).
Watermelon fruit is 91% water, contains 6% sugars, and is low in fat(table).[27]
Food
Watermelon rinds are also edible, but most people avoid eating them due to their unappealing flavor. They
are used for making pickles,[26] and sometimes used as a vegetable.[7] The rind is stir-fried, stewed or more
often pickled,[28] which is sometimes eaten in the Southern US.[29]
The amino acid citrulline is produced in watermelon rind.[30][31] Watermelon pulp contains carotenoids,
including lycopene.[32]
The Oklahoma State Senate passed a bill in 2007 declaring watermelon as the official state vegetable, with
some controversy about whether it is a vegetable or a fruit. [33]
The seeds have a nutty flavor and can be dried and roasted, or ground into flour.[7] In China, the seeds are
esteemed and eaten with other seeds atChinese New Year celebrations.[34] In Vietnamese culture,
watermelon seeds are consumed during the Vietnamese New Year's holiday, Tt, as asnack.[35]
Watermelon juice can be made into wine or blended with other fruit juices.[36] An alcoholic treat called a
"hard watermelon" is made by pouring liquor into a hole in the rind of a whole fruit, and then eating the
alcohol-permeated flesh.[28]
C. l. lanatus var caffer grows wild in the Kalahari Desert, where it is known as tsamma.[7] The fruits are used
by the San people and by animals for both water and nourishment. Traditionally, travelling in the desert in
the dry season could only be done in a good tsamma year. Humans can survive on an exclusive diet of
tsamma for six weeks.[7]

Water buffalo dung drying on the wall of a house, Yuanyang County, Yunnan
Cow dung, also known as cow pats, cow pies or cow manure, is the waste product of bovine animal
species. These species include domestic cattle ("cows"),bison ("buffalo"), yak, and water buffalo. Cow dung
is the undigested residue of plant matter which has passed through the animal's gut. The resultant faecal
matter is rich in minerals. Color ranges from greenish to blackish, often darkening soon after exposure
to air.

Uses[edit]
Cow dung, which is usually a dark brown color (usually combined with soiled bedding and urine), is often
used as manure (agricultural fertilizer). If not recycled into the soil by species such as earthworms
and dung beetles, cow dung can dry out and remain on the pasture, creating an area of grazing land which
is unpalatable to livestock.
In many parts of the developing world, and in the past in mountain regions of Europe, caked and dried cow
dung is used as fuel.
Dung may also be collected and used to produce biogas to generateelectricity and heat. The gas is rich
in methane and is used in rural areas of India and Pakistan and elsewhere to provide a renewable and
stable source of electricity.[1]
In central Africa, Maasai villages have burned cow dung inside to repelmosquitos. In cold places, cow dung
is used to line the walls of rustic houses as a cheap thermal insulator. Most of villagers in India spray fresh
cow dung mixed with water in front of the houses to repel insects.[2] It is also dried into cake like shapes and
used as replacement for firewood.
Cow dung is also an optional ingredient in the manufacture of adobe mud brickhousing depending on the
availability of materials at hand.[3]
A deposit of cow dung is referred to in American English as a "cow chip," or less commonly "cow pie," and
in British English as a "cowpat".[4] When dry, it is used in the practice of "cow chip throwing" popularized
in Beaver, Oklahoma in 1970.[5][6] On April 21, 2001 Robert Deevers of Elgin, Oklahoma, set the record for
cow chip throwing with a distance of 185 feet 5 inches.[7]
Cow dung is also used in Hindu religious fire yajna as an important ingredient.[8]
Ecology[edit]
Cow dung provides food for a wide range of animal and fungus species, which break it down and recycle it
into the food chain and into the soil.
In areas where cattle (or other mammals with similar dung) are not native, there are often also no native
species which can break down their dung, and this can lead to infestations of pests such as flies and
parasitic worms. In Australia, dung beetles from elsewhere have been introduced to help recycle the cattle
dung back into the soil. (see the Australian Dung Beetle Project and Dr. George Bornemissza).[9]
Cattle have a natural aversion to feeding around their own dung. This can lead to the formation of taller
ungrazed patches of heavily fertilized sward. These habitat patches, termed "islets", can be beneficial for
many grassland arthropods, including spiders (Araneae) and bugs (Hemiptera). They have an important
function in maintaining biodiversity in heavily utilized pastures. [10]
Variants[edit]
A buffalo chip, also called a meadow muffin, is the name for a large, flat, dried piece of dung deposited by
the American bison. Well dried buffalo chips were among the few things that could be collected and burned
on the prairie and were used by the Plains Indians, settlers and pioneers, and homesteaders as a source of
cooking heat and warmth.
Bison dung is sometimes referred to by the name nik-nik. This word is a borrowing from the Sioux
language (which probably originally borrowed it from a northern source). In modern Sioux, nik-nik can refer
to the feces of any bovine, including domestic cattle. It has also come to be used, especially in Lakota, to
refer to lies or broken promises (especially by the U.S. government), analogously to the vulgar English term
"bullshit" as a figure of speech.

A mule is the offspring of a male donkey (jack) and a female horse(mare).[1] Horses and donkeys are
different species, with different numbers of chromosomes. Of the two F1 hybrids between these two
species, a mule is easier to obtain than a hinny, which is the offspring of afemale donkey (jenny) and
a male horse (stallion).
The size of a mule and work to which it is put depend largely on the breeding of the mule's female parent
(dam). Mules can be lightweight, medium weight, or when produced from draft horse mares, of moderately
heavy weight.[2]:8587 Mules are more patient, hardy and long-lived than horses, and are less obstinate and
more intelligent than donkeys.[3]:5

[show]
Biology[edit]
The mule is valued because, while it has the size and ground-covering ability of its dam, it is stronger than
a horse of similar size and inherits the endurance and disposition of the donkey sire, tending to require less
food than a horse of similar size. Mules also tend to be more independent than most domesticated equines
other than the donkey.
The median weight range for a mule is between about 370 and 460 kg (820 and 1,000 lb).[4] While a few
mules can carry live weight up to 160 kg (353 lb), the superiority of the mule becomes apparent in their
additional endurance.[5]
In general, a mule can be packed with dead weight of up to 20% of its body weight, or approximately 90 kg
(198 lb).[5] Although it depends on the individual animal, it has been reported that mules trained by the Army
of Pakistan can carry up to 72 kilograms (159 lb) and walk 26 kilometres (16.2 mi) without resting.[6] The
average equine in general can carry up to approximately 30% of its body weight in live weight, such as a
rider.[7]
A female mule that has estrus cycles and thus, in theory, could carry a fetus, is called a "molly" or "Molly
mule," though the term is sometimes used to refer to female mules in general. Pregnancy is rare, but can
occasionally occur naturally as well as through embryo transfer. A male mule is properly called ahorse
mule, though often called a john mule, which is the correct term for a gelded mule. A young male mule is
called amule colt, and a young female is called a mule filly.[8]
Characteristics[edit]
A gray mule
With its short thick head, long ears, thin limbs, small narrow hooves, and shortmane, the mule shares
characteristics of a donkey. In height and body, shape of neck and rump, uniformity of coat, and teeth, it
appears horse-like. The mule comes in all sizes, shapes andconformations. There are mules that resemble
huge draft horses, sturdy quarter horses, fine-boned racing horses, shaggy ponies and more.
The mule is an example of hybrid vigor.[9] Charles Darwin wrote: "The mule always appears to me a most
surprising animal. That a hybrid should possess more reason, memory, obstinacy, social affection, powers
of muscular endurance, and length of life, than either of its parents, seems to indicate that art has here
outdone nature."[10]
The mule inherits from its sire the traits of intelligence, sure-footedness, toughness, endurance, disposition,
and natural cautiousness. From its dam it inherits speed, conformation, and agility.[11]:56,8 Mules exhibit a
higher cognitive intelligence than their parent species. This is also believed to be the result of hybrid vigor,
similar to how mules acquire greater height and endurance than either parent. [12]

Handlers of working animals generally find mules preferable to horses: mules show more patience under
the pressure of heavy weights, and their skin is harder and less sensitive than that of horses, rendering
them more capable of resisting sun and rain. Their hooves are harder than horses', and they show a
natural resistance to disease and insects. Many North American farmers withclay soil found mules superior
as plow animals.
A mule does not sound exactly like a donkey or a horse. Instead, a mule makes a sound that is similar to a
donkey's but also has the whinnying characteristics of a horse (often starts with a whinny, ends in a heehaw). Mules sometimes whimper.

Mules historically were used by armies to transport supplies, occasionally as mobile firing platforms for
smaller cannons, and to pull heavier field guns with wheels over mountainous trails such as in Afghanistan
during the Second Anglo-Afghan War.[13]
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) reports that Chinawas the top market
for mules in 2003, closely followed by Mexico and manyCentral and South American nations.
Fertility[edit]
Mules and hinnies have 63 chromosomes, a mixture of the horse's 64 and the donkey's 62. The different
structure and number usually prevents the chromosomes from pairing up properly and creating successful
embryos, rendering most mules infertile.
There are no recorded cases of fertile mule stallions. A few mare mules have produced offspring when
mated with a purebred horse or donkey.[14][15] Herodotus gives an account of such an event as an ill omen
of Xerxes' invasion of Greece in 480 BC: "There happened also a portent of another kind while he was still
at Sardis,a mule brought forth young and gave birth to a mule" (Herodotus The Histories 7:57), and a
mule's giving birth was a frequently recorded portent in antiquity, although scientific writers also doubted
whether the thing was really possible (see e.g. Aristotle,Historia animalium, 6.24; Varro, De re rustica,
2.1.28).
As of October 2002, there had been only 60 documented cases of mules birthing foals since 1527.
[15]
In China in 2001, a mare mule produced a filly.[16] In Morocco in early 2002 and Colorado in 2007, mare
mules produced colts.[15][17][18]Blood and hair samples from the Colorado birth verified that the mother was
indeed a mule and the foal was indeed her offspring. [18]
A 1939 article in the Journal of Heredity describes two offspring of a fertile mare mule named "Old Bec",
which was owned at the time by the A&M College of Texas (now Texas A&M University) in the late 1920s.
One of the foals was a female, sired by a jack. Unlike its mother, it was sterile. The other, sired by a fivegaited Saddlebred stallion, exhibited no characteristics of any donkey. That horse, a stallion, was bred to
several mares, which gave birth to live foals that showed no characteristics of the donkey.[19]

Modern mules[edit]
In the second half of the 20th century, widespread usage of mules declined in industrialized countries. The
use of mules for farming and transportation of agricultural products largely gave way to
modern tractorsand trucks. However, in the United States, a dedicated number of mule breeders continued
the tradition as a hobby and continued breeding the great lines of American Mammoth Jacks started in
the United States byGeorge Washington with the gift from the King of Spain of two ZamoranoLeons donkeys. These hobby breeders began to utilize better mares for mule production until today's
modern saddle mule emerged. Exhibition shows where mules pulled heavy loads have now been joined
with mules competing in Western and English pleasure riding, as well as dressage and show
jumping competition. There is now a cable TV show dedicated to the training of donkeys and mules. Mules,
once snubbed at traditional horse shows, have been accepted for competition at the most exclusive horse
shows in the world in all disciplines.
Mules are still used extensively to transport cargo in rugged roadless regions, such as the
large wilderness areas of California's Sierra Nevada mountains or the Pasayten Wilderness of northern
Washington state. Commercial pack mules are used recreationally, such as to supply mountaineering base
camps, and also to supply trail building and maintenance crews, and backcountry footbridge building
crews.[20] As of July 2014, there are at least sixteen commercial mule pack stations in business in the Sierra
Nevada.[21] The Angeles chapter of the Sierra Club has a Mule Pack Section that organizes hiking trips with
supplies carried by mules.[22]
Amish farmers, who reject tractors and most other modern technology for religious reasons, commonly use
teams of six or eight mules to pull plows, disk harrows, and other farm equipment, though they use horses
for pulling buggies on the road.

During the Soviet war in Afghanistan, the United States used large numbers of mules to carry weapons and
supplies over Afghanistan's rugged terrain to the mujahideen.[23] Use of mules by U.S. forces has continued
during the War in Afghanistan (2001-present), and the United States Marine Corps has conducted an 11day Animal Packers Course since the 1960s at its Mountain Warfare Training Centerlocated in the Sierra
Nevada near Bridgeport, California.
Mule train[edit]
A 'mule train' is a connected or unconnected line of 'pack mules', usually carrying cargo. Because of the
mule's ability to carry as much as a horse, their trait of being sure footed along with their tolerance of
poorer coarser foods and abilities to tolerate arid terrains, Mule trains were common caravan organized
means of animal powered bulk transport back into pre-classical times. In many climate and circumstantial
instances, an equivalent string of pack horses would have to carry more fodder and sacks of high energy
grains such as oats, so could carry less cargo. In modern times, strings of sure footed mules have been
used to carry riders in dangerous but scenic back country terrain such as excursions into canyons.
Pack trains were instrumental in opening up the American West as the sure footed animals could carry up
to 250 pounds, survive on rough forage,[a] did not require feed, and could operate in the arid higher
elevations of the Rockies, serving as the main cargo means to the west from Missouri during the heyday of
the North American fur trade.[b] Their use antedated the move west into the Rockies as colonial Americans
sent out the first fur trappers and explorers past the Appalachians who were then followed west by high risk
taking settlers by the 1750s (such as Daniel Boone) who lead an increasing flood of emigrants that began
pushing west over the into southern New York, and through the gaps of the Allegheny into the Ohio
Country (the lands of western Province of Virginia and the Province of Pennsylvania), into Tennessee and
Kentucky before and especially after the American Revolution.
Mule trains have been used as working (as opposed to tourist attractions) portions of transportation links as
recently as 2005 by the World Food Programme.[24]
In the nineteenth century, Twenty-mule teams, for instance, were teams of eighteen mules and two horses
attached to large wagons that ferried borax out of Death Valley from 1883 to 1889. The wagons were
among the largest ever pulled by draft animals, designed to carry 10 short tons (9 metric tons) of borax ore
at a time.[25]
Mule clone[edit]
In 2003, researchers at University of Idaho and Utah State University produced the first mule clone as part
of Project Idaho.[26] The research team included Gordon Woods, professor of animal and veterinary
science at the University of Idaho; Kenneth L. White, Utah State University professor of animal science;
and Dirk Vanderwall, University of Idaho assistant professor of animal and veterinary science. The baby
mule, Idaho Gem, was born May 4. It was the first clone of a hybrid animal. Veterinary examinations of the
foal and its surrogate mother showed them to be in good health soon after birth. The foal's DNA comes
from a fetal cell culture first established in 1998 at the University of Idaho.

Notes[edit]
1.
Jump up^ rough forage means Mules, Donkeys, and other asses, like many wild ungulates such as
various deer species, can tolerate eating small shrubs, lichens and some branch ladened tree foliages and
obtaining nutrition from such. In contrast, the digestive system of horses and to a lesser extent cattle are
more dependent upon grasses, and evolved in climates where grasslands involved stands of grains and their
high energy seed heads.
2.
Jump up^ The influence and effect of fur trading, especially for Beaver pelts between 1500-1940 is
hard to understand these days when there are dozens of optional synthetic fabrics added to the repertoire of
natural fiber materials. Many of the latter would only become widely available through the development of
machinery processing (Cotton Gin, Spinning Jenny, etc.) making their use economical and widespread. The
waterproofing wearing Beaver hats and coats was valuable in the days when transportation measured the six
miles per hour of horsebacked travel as rapid transit.

Bed bugs, bed-bugs, or bedbugs[2] are parasitic insects of the cimicidfamily that feed exclusively on
blood. Cimex lectularius, the common bed bug, is the best known as it prefers to feed on human blood.
Other Cimexspecies specialize in other animals, e.g., bat bugs, such as Cimex pipistrelli(Europe), Cimex
pilosellus (western US), and Cimex adjunctus (entire eastern US).[3]
The name "bed bug" derives from the preferred habitat of Cimex lectularius: warm houses and especially
near or inside beds and bedding or other sleep areas. Bed bugs are mainly active at night, but are not
exclusively nocturnal. They usually feed on their hosts without being noticed.[4][5][6]
A number of adverse health effects may result from bed bug bites, includingskin rashes, psychological
effects, and allergic symptoms.[7] Bed bugs are not known to transmit any pathogens as disease vectors.
Certain signs and symptoms suggest the presence of bed bugs; finding the adult insects confirms the
diagnosis.
Bed bugs have been known as human parasites for thousands of years. [8] At a point in the early 1940s, they
were mostly eradicated in the developed world, but have increased in prevalence since 1995, likely due
to pesticide resistance, governmental bans on effective pesticides, and international travel. [9][10] Because
infestation of human habitats has begun to increase, bed bug bites and related conditions have been on
the rise as well.[8][11]

Infestation[edit]
Main article: Bed bug infestation
Bedbug bites
Diagnosis of an infestation involves both finding bed bugs and the occurrence of compatible symptoms.
[7]
Treatment involves the elimination of the insect (including its eggs) and taking measures to treat
symptoms until they resolve.[7]
Bed bug bites or cimicosis may lead to a range of skin manifestations from no visible effects to prominent
blisters.[12] Effects include skin rashes, psychological effects, and allergic symptoms.[7]
Although bed bugs can be infected with at least 28 human pathogens, no studies have found that the
insects are capable of transmitting any of these to humans.[11] They have been found with methicillinresistantStaphylococcus aureus (MRSA)[13] and with vancomycin-resistantEnterococcus faecium (VRE), but
the significance of this is still unknown.[14]
Investigations into potential transmission of HIV, MRSA, hepatitis B,hepatitis C, and hepatitis E have not
shown that bed bugs can spread these diseases. However, arboviruses may be transmissible.[15]
Description[edit]
Physical[edit]
Adult bed bugs are light brown to reddish-brown, flattened, oval-shaped, and have no hind wings. The front
wings arevestigial and reduced to pad-like structures. Bed bugs have segmented abdomens with
microscopic hairs that give them a banded appearance. Adults grow to 45 mm (0.160.20 in) long and
1.53 mm (0.0590.118 in) wide.
Newly hatched nymphs are translucent, lighter in color, and become browner as they moult and
reach maturity. A bed bug nymph of any age that has just consumed a blood meal has a bright red,
translucent abdomen, fading to brown over the next several hours, and to opaque black within two days as
the insect digests its meal. Bed bugs may be mistaken for other insects, such as booklice, small
cockroaches, or carpet beetles; however, when warm and active, their movements are more ant-like and,
like most other true bugs, they emit a characteristic disagreeable odor when crushed.
Bed bugs use pheromones and kairomones to communicate regarding nesting locations, feeding, and
reproduction.
The lifespan of bed bugs varies by species and is also dependent on feeding.
Bed bugs can survive a wide range of temperatures and atmospheric compositions. [16] Below 16.1 C
(61.0 F), adults enter semihibernation and can survive longer; they can survive for at least five days at
10 C (14 F), but die after 15 minutes of exposure to 32 C (26 F).[17] Common commercial and
residential freezers reach temperatures low enough to kill most life stages of bed bug, with 95% mortality
after 3 days at 12 C (10 F).[18] They show high desiccation tolerance, surviving low humidity and a 35
40 C range even with loss of one-third of body weight; earlier life stages are more susceptible to drying out
than later ones.[19]
The thermal death point for C. lectularius is 45 C (113 F); all stages of life are killed by 7 minutes of
exposure to 46 C (115 F).[17] Bed bugs apparently cannot survive high concentrations of carbon dioxide for
very long; exposure to nearly pure nitrogen atmospheres, however, appears to have relatively little effect
even after 72 hours.[20]
Feeding habits[edit]

mouthparts highlighted in purple and red
Bed bugs are obligatory hematophagous (bloodsucking) insects. Most species feed on humans only when
other prey are unavailable.[21][22][23] They obtain all the additional moisture they need from water vapor in the
surrounding air.[24] Bed bugs are attracted to their hosts primarily by carbon dioxide, secondarily by warmth,
and also by certain chemicals.[25][26][27] Bedbugs prefer exposed skin, preferably the face, neck, and arms of a
sleeping person.
Bedbugs have mouth parts that saw through the skin, and inject saliva withanticoagulants and painkillers.
Sensitivity of humans varies from extreme allergic reaction to no reaction at all (about 20%). The bite
usually produces a swelling with no red spot, but when many bugs feed on a small area, reddish spots may
appear after the swelling subsides.[17]
Although under certain cool conditions adult bed bugs can live for over a year without feeding, [28] under
typically warm conditions they try to feed at five- to ten-day intervals, and adults can survive for about five
months without food.[29] Younger instars cannot survive nearly as long, though even the vulnerable newly
hatched first instars can survive for weeks without taking a blood meal.
At the 57th annual meeting of the Entomological Society of America in 2009, newer generations of
pesticide-resistant bed bugs in Virginia were reported to survive only two months without feeding. [30]
DNA from human blood meals can be recovered from bed bugs for up to 90 days, which mean they can be
used forforensic purposes in identifying on whom the bed bugs have fed.[31][32]
Feeding physiology[edit]
A bed bug pierces the skin of its host with a stylet fascicle, rostrum, or "beak". The rostrum is composed of
the maxillae and mandibles, which have been modified into elongated shapes from a basic, ancestral style.
The right and left maxillarystylets are connected at their midline and a section at the centerline forms a
large food canal and a smaller salivary canal. The entire maxillary and mandibular bundle penetrates the
skin.[6]
The tips of the right and left maxillary stylets are not the same; the right is hook-like and curved, and the left
is straight. The right and left mandibular stylets extend along the outer sides of their respective maxillary
stylets and do not reach anywhere near the tip of the fused maxillary stylets. The stylets are retained in a
groove in the labium, and during feeding, they are freed from the groove as the jointed labium is bent or
folded out of the way; its tip never enters the wound.[6]
The mandibular stylet tips have small teeth, and through alternately moving these stylets back and forth,
the insect cuts a path through tissue for the maxillary bundle to reach an appropriately sized blood vessel.
Pressure from the blood vessel itself fills the insect with blood in three to five minutes. The bug then
withdraws the stylet bundle from the feeding position and retracts it back into the labial groove, folds the
entire unit back under the head, and returns to its hiding place. [6] It takes between five and ten minutes for a
bed bug to become completely engorged with blood.[33] In all, the insect may spend less than 20 minutes in
physical contact with its host, and does not try to feed again until it has either completed a moult or, if an
adult, has thoroughly digested the meal.
Reproduction[edit]
All bed bugs mate by traumatic insemination.[5][34] Female bed bugs possess areproductive tract that
functions during oviposition, but the male does not use this tract for sperm insemination.[5] Instead, the male
pierces the female's abdomenwith his hypodermic penis and ejaculates into the body cavity. In all bed bug
species except Primicimex cavernis, sperm are injected into the mesospermalege,[5] a component of
the spermalege,[5] a secondary genital structure that reduces the wounding and immunological costs of
traumatic insemination.[35][36][37] Injected sperm travel via the haemolymph (blood) tosperm storage structures
called seminal conceptacles, with fertilisation eventually taking place at the ovaries.[36]
Male bed bugs sometimes attempt to mate with other males and pierce their abdomens. [38] This behaviour
occurs because sexual attraction in bed bugs is based primarily on size, and males mount any freshly fed
partner regardless of sex.[39] The "bed bug alarm pheromone" consists of (E)-2-octenal and (E)-2-hexenal. It
is released when a bed bug is disturbed, as during an attack by a predator. A 2009 study demonstrated the
alarm pheromone is also released by male bed bugs to repel other males that attempt to mate with them. [37]
[40]
Cimex lectularius and C. hemipterus mate with each other given the opportunity, but the eggs then
produced are usually sterile. In a 1988 study, one of 479 eggs was fertile and resulted in a hybrid, Cimex
hemipterus lectularius.[41][42]
Sperm protection[edit]
Cimex lectularius males have environmental microbes on their genitals. These microbes damage sperm
cells, leaving them unable to fertilize female gametes. Due to these dangerous microbes, males have
evolved antimicrobial ejaculate substances that prevent sperm damage. When the microbes contact sperm
or the male genitals, the bed bug releases antimicrobial substances. Many species of these microbes live
in the bodies of females after mating. The microbes can cause infections in the females. It has been
suggested that females receive benefit from the ejaculate. Though the benefit is not direct, females are
able to produce more eggs than optimum increasing the amount of the females' genes in the gene pool. [43]
Sperm and seminal fluid allocation[edit]
In organisms, sexual selection extends past differential reproduction to affect sperm composition, sperm
competition, and ejaculate size. Males of C. lectularius allocate 12% of their sperm and 19% of their
seminal fluid per mating. Due to these findings, Reinhard et. al proposed that multiple mating is limited by
seminal fluid and not sperm. After measuring ejaculate volume, mating rate and estimating sperm density,
Reinhardt et al. showed that mating could be limited by seminal fluid. Despite these advances, the cost
difference between ejaculate-dose dependence and mating frequency dependence have not been
explored.[44]
Egg production[edit]
Males fertilize females only by traumatic insemination into the structure called the ectospermalege (the
organ of Berlese, however the organ of Ribaga (as it was first named) was first designated as an organ
of stridulation. These two names are not descriptive, so other terminologies are used). On fertilization, the
female's ovaries finish developing, which suggests that sperm plays a role other than fertilizing the egg.
Fertilization also allows for egg production through the corpus allatum. Sperm remains viable in a female's
spermathecae (a better term is conceptacle), a sperm-carrying sack, for a long period of time as long as
body temperature is optimum. The female lays fertilized eggs until she depletes the sperm found in her
conceptacle. After the depletion of sperm, she lays a few sterile eggs. The number of eggs a C.
lectulariusfemale produces does not depend on the sperm she harbors, but on the female's nutritional
level.[45]
Alarm pheromones[edit]
In C. lectularius, males sometimes mount other males because male sexual interest is directed at any
recently fed individual regardless of their sex, but unfed females may also be mounted. Traumatic
insemination is the only way for copulation to occur in bed bugs. Females have evolved the spermalege to
protect themselves from wounding and infection. Because males lack this organ, traumatic insemination
could leave them badly injured. For this reason, males have evolved alarm pheromones to signal their sex
to other males. If a male C. lectularius mounts another male, the mounted male releases the pheromone
signal and the male on top stops before insemination.
Females are capable of producing alarm pheromones to avoid multiple mating, but they generally do not do
so. Two reasons are proposed as to why females do not release alarm pheromones to protect themselves.
First, alarm pheromone production is costly. Due to egg production, females may refrain from spending
additional energy on alarm pheromones. The second proposed reason is that releasing the alarm
pheromone reduces the benefits associated with multiple mating. [46] Benefits of multiple mating include
material benefits, better quality nourishment or more nourishment, genetic benefits including increased
fitness of offspring, and finally, the cost of resistance may be higher than the benefit of consentwhich
appears the case in C. lectularius.[47]
Life stages[edit]
Bed bugs have five immature nymph life stages and a final sexually mature adult stage. [48] They shed their
skins throughecdysis at each stage, discarding their outer exoskeleton, which is somewhat clear,
empty exoskeletons of the bugs themselves. Bed bugs must molt six times before becoming fertile adults,
and must consume at least one blood meal to complete each moult.[49]
Each of the immature stages lasts about a week, depending on temperature and the availability of food,
and the complete lifecycle can be completed in as little as two months (rather long compared to
other ectoparasites). Fertilized females with enough food lay three to four eggs each day continually until
the end of their lifespans (about nine months under warm conditions), possibly generating as many as 500
eggs in this time.[49] Genetic analysis has shown that a single pregnant bed bug, possibly a single survivor
of eradication, can be responsible for an entire infestation over a matter of weeks, rapidly producing
generations of offspring.[50]

Sexual dimorphism[edit]
Sexual dimorphism occurs in C. lectularius, with the females larger in size than the males on average. The
abdomens of the sexes differ in that the males appear to have "pointed" abdomens, which are actually their
copulatory organs, while females have more rounded abdomens. Since males are attracted to large body
size, any bed bug with a recent blood meal can be seen as a potential mate. However, males will mount
unfed, flat females on occasion. The female is able to curl her abdomen forward and underneath toward
the head to not mate. Males are generally unable to discriminate between the sexes until after mounting,
but before inseminating.[51]
Host searching[edit]
C. lectularius only feeds every five to seven days, which suggests that it does not spend the majority of its
life searching for a host. When a bed bug is starved, it leaves its shelter and searches for a host. If it
successfully feeds, it returns to its shelter. If it does not feed, it continues to search for a host. After
searchingregardless of whether or not it has eatenthe bed bug returns to the shelter to aggregate
before the photophase (period of light during a day-night cycle). Reis argues that two reasons explain
why C. lectularius would return to its shelter and aggregate after feeding. One is to find a mate and the
other is to find shelter to avoid getting smashed after eating.[52]
Detection[edit]
Bed bug eggs and two adult bed bugs from inside a dresser
Bed bugs can exist singly, but tend to congregate once established. Though strictly parasitic, they spend
only a tiny fraction of their lifecycles physically attached to hosts. Once a bed bug finishes feeding, it
relocates to a place close to a known host, commonly in or near beds or couches in clusters of adults,
juveniles, and eggswhich entomologists call harborage areas or simply harborages to which the insect
returns after future feedings by following chemical trails. These places can vary greatly in format, including
luggage, inside of vehicles, within furniture, amongst bedside cluttereven inside electrical sockets and
nearby laptop computers. Bed bugs may also nest near animals that have nested within a dwelling, such
as bats, birds,[54] or rodents. They are also capable of surviving on domestic cats and dogs, though humans
are the preferred host ofC. lectularius.[55]
Bed bugs can also be detected by their characteristic smell of rottingraspberries.[56] Bed bug detection
dogs are trained to pinpoint infestations, with a possible accuracy rate between 11% and 83%. [57]
Management[edit]
See also: Bed bug control techniques
Eradication of bed bugs frequently requires a combination of nonpesticide approaches and the occasional
use of pesticides.[8][11]
Mechanical approaches, such as vacuuming up the insects and heat-treating or wrapping mattresses, are
effective.[8][57] A combination of heat and drying treatments is most effective. An hour at a temperature of
45 C (113 F) or over, or two hours at less than 17 C (1 F) kills them;[57] a domestic clothes drier or
steam kills bedbugs.[17] Another study found 100% mortality rates for bed bugs exposed to temperatures
greater than 50 C (122 F) for more than 2 minutes.[58]Starving them is difficult as they can survive without
eating for 100 to 300 days, depending on temperature. [57] For public health reasons, individuals are
encouraged to call a professional pest control service to eradicate bed bugs in a home, rather than
attempting to do it themselves, particularly if they live in a multifamily building. [59]
As of 2012, no truly effective pesticides were available. [57] Pesticides that have historically been found
effective include pyrethroids, dichlorvos, and malathion.[11]Resistance to pesticides has increased
significantly over time, and harm to healthfrom their use is of concern.
[8]
The carbamate insecticide propoxur is highly toxic to bed bugs, but it has potential toxicity to children
exposed to it, and the US Environmental Protection Agency has been reluctant to approve it for indoor use.
[60]
Boric acid, occasionally applied as a safe indoor insecticide, is not effective against bed bugs because
they do not groom.[61][dubious discuss] The fungus Beauveria bassiana is being researched as of 2012 for its ability
to control bed bugs.[62] As bed bugs continue to adapt pesticide resistance, researchers have examined on
the insect's genome to see how the adaptations develop and to look for potential vulnerabilities that can be
exploited in the growth and development phases.[63]
Predators[edit]
Natural enemies of bed bugs include the masked hunter insect (also known as "masked bed bug hunter"),
[64]
cockroaches,[65] ants, spiders (particularly Thanatus flavidus), mites, and centipedes (particularly the
house centipedeScutigera coleoptrata). However, biological pest control is not considered practical for
eliminating bed bugs from human dwellings.[17]
Epidemiology[edit]
Main article: Epidemiology of bed bugs
Bed bugs occur around the world.[66] Rates of infestations in developed countries, while decreasing from the
1930s to the 1980s, have increased dramatically since the 1980s.[8][11][66] Previously, they were common in
the developing world, but rare in the developed world.[11] The increase in the developed world may have
been caused by increased international travel, resistance to insecticides, and the use of new pest-control
methods that do not affect bed bugs.[67][68]
The fall in bed bug populations after the 1930s in the developed world is believed partly due to the use
of DDT to kill cockroaches.[69] The invention of the vacuum cleaner and simplification of furniture design may
have also played a role.[69] Others believe it might simply be the cyclical nature of the organism.[70]
The exact causes of this resurgence remain unclear; it is variously ascribed to greater foreign travel,
increased immigration from the developing world to the developed world, more frequent exchange of
second-hand furnishings among homes, a greater focus on control of other pests, resulting in neglect of
bed bug countermeasures, and increasing resistance to pesticides. [11][67] Declines in household cockroach
populations that have resulted from the use ofinsecticides effective against this major bed bug predator
have aided the bed bugs' resurgence, as have bans on DDT and other potent pesticides.[71]
The common bed bug (C. lectularius) is the species best adapted to human environments. It is found
in temperateclimates throughout the world. Other species include Cimex hemipterus, found in tropical
regions, which also infests poultry and bats, and Leptocimex boueti, found in the tropics of West Africa and
South America, which infests bats and humans. Cimex pilosellus and Cimex pipistrella primarily infest bats,
while Haematosiphon inodora, a species of North America, primarily infests poultry.[72]

C. lectularius may have originated in the Middle East in caves inhabited by bats and humans. [22]
Bed bugs were mentioned in ancient Greece as early as 400 BC, and were later mentioned
by Aristotle. Pliny's Natural History, first published circa 77 AD in Rome, claimed bed bugs had medicinal
value in treating ailments such as snake bites and ear infections. (Belief in the medicinal use of bed bugs
persisted until at least the 18th century, when Guettard recommended their use in the treatment of hysteria.
[73]
)
Bed bugs were first mentioned in Germany in the 11th century, in France in the 13th century, and in
England in 1583,[22] though they remained rare in England until 1670. Some in the 18th century believed
bed bugs had been brought to London with supplies of wood to rebuild the city after the Great Fire of
London (1666). Giovanni Antonio Scopoli noted their presence inCarniola (roughly equivalent to presentday Slovenia) in the 18th century.[74][75]
Traditional methods of repelling and/or killing bed bugs include the use of plants, fungi, and insects (or their
extracts), such as black pepper;[76] black cohosh (Actaea racemosa); Pseudarthria hookeri; Laggera
alata (Chinese yngmo co | );[17] Eucalyptus salignaoil;[77][78] henna (Lawsonia inermis or camphire);
[79]
"infused oil of Melolontha vulgaris" (presumably cockchafer); fly agaric (Amanita muscaria); Actaea spp.
(e.g. black cohosh); tobacco; "heated oil of Terebinthina" (i.e. true turpentine); wild mint (Mentha
arvensis); narrow-leaved pepperwort (Lepidium ruderale); Myrica spp. (e.g. bayberry); Robert
geranium(Geranium robertianum); bugbane (Cimicifuga spp.); "herb and seeds of Cannabis"; "opulus"
berries (possibly maple orEuropean cranberrybush); masked hunter bugs (Reduvius personatus), "and
many others".[80]
In the mid-19th century, smoke from peat fires was recommended as an indoor domestic fumigant against
bed bugs.[81]
Dusts have been used to ward off insects from grain storage for centuries, including "plant ash, lime,
dolomite, certain types of soil, and diatomaceous earth or Kieselguhr".[82] Of these, diatomaceous earth in
particular has seen a revival as a nontoxic (when in amorphous form) residual pesticide for bed bug
abatement. While diatomaceous earth performed poorly, silica gel may be effective. [83][84]
Basket-work panels were put around beds and shaken out in the morning in the UK and in France in the
19th century. Scattering leaves of plants with microscopic hooked hairs around a bed at night, then
sweeping them up in the morning and burning them, was a technique reportedly used in Southern
Rhodesia and in the Balkans.[85]
Bean leaves have been used historically to trap bedbugs in houses in Eastern Europe. The trichomes on
the bean leaves capture the insects by impaling the feet (tarsi) of the insects. The leaves are then
destroyed.[86]
20th century[edit]
Prior to the mid-20th century, bed bugs were very common. According to a report by the UK Ministry of
Health, in 1933, all the houses in many areas had some degree of bed bug infestation. [87] The increase in
bed bug populations in the early 20th century has been attributed to the advent of electric heating, which
allowed bed bugs to thrive year-round instead of only in warm weather.[88]
Bed bugs were a serious problem at U.S. military bases during World War II.[89] Initially, the problem was
solved by fumigation, using Zyklon Discoids that released hydrogen cyanide gas, a rather dangerous
procedure.[89] Later, DDT was used to good effect as a safer alternative.[89]
The decline of bed bug populations in the 20th century is often credited to potent pesticides that had not
previously been widely available.[90] Other contributing factors that are less frequently mentioned in news
reports are increased public awareness and slum clearance programs that combined pesticide use with
steam disinfection, relocation of slum dwellers to new housing, and in some cases also follow-up
inspections for several months after relocated tenants moved into their new housing. [88]
Resurgence[edit]
Bed bug infestations resurged since the 1980s[50] for reasons that are not clear, but contributing factors may
be complacency, increased resistance, bans on pesticides, and increased international travel. [90] The
U.S. National Pest Management Association reported a 71% increase in bed bug calls between 2000 and
2005.[91] The number of reported incidents in New York City alone rose from 500 in 2004 to 10,000 in 2009.
[92]
In 2013, Chicago was listed as the number 1 city in the United States with the worst bed bug infestation.
[93]
As a result, the Chicago City Council passed a bed bug control ordinance to limit their spread.
Additionally, bed bugs are reaching places in which they never established before, such as southern South
America.[94][95]
One recent theory about bed bug reappearance in the US is that they never truly disappeared, but may
have been forced to alternative hosts. Consistent with this is the finding that bed bug DNA shows no
evidence of an evolutionary bottleneck. Furthermore, investigators have found high populations of bed
bugs at poultry facilities in Arkansas. Poultry workers at these facilities may be spreading bed bugs,
unknowingly carrying them to their places of residence and elsewhere after leaving work. [96][97]
Etymology[edit]
The word bug and its earlier spelling bugge originally meant "bed bug". Many other creatures are now
called "bugs", such as the "ladybug" ("ladybird" outside North America) and the "potato bug"; the word is
used informally for any insect, or even microscopic germs or diseases caused by these germs, but the
earliest recorded use of the actual word "bug" referred to a bed bug. [101]
The term "bed bug" may also be spelled "bedbug" or "bed-bug", though published sources consistently use
the unhyphenated two-word name "bed bug". The pests have been known by a variety of other informal
names, including chilly billies, chinche bug, crimson rambler, heavy dragoon, mahogany flat, redcoat, and
wall louse.[61]

Ng'ombe (kutoka Kireno "gumbe") ni wanyama wakubwa wanaokula nyasi. Ni wanyama wanaofugwa kwa
wingi sana kwa ajili ya nyama, maziwa, ngozi au pia kwa kuvuta plau au gari la kukokotwa.
Kibiolojia ni wanyama wa jenasi Bos. Ng'ombe-kaya ni aina zifugwazo za ng'ombe-mwitu (Bos
primigenius).
Kwa asili kuna aina mbili za ng'ombe-kaya: ng'ombe wa Ulaya na ng'ombe wa Uhindi ambazo
ni nususpishi za B. primigenius (B. p. taurus na B. p. indicus mtawalia, ingawa mara nyingi nususpishi hizo
zinaainishwa kama spishi zaB. taurus na B. indicus). Zinatoka kwa nususpishi za zamani B. p.
primigenius na B. p. namadicus.
Siku hizi ni vigumu kufahamu nususpishi za ng'ombe, kwa sababu takriban aina zote za ng'ombe
ni chotara sasa.
Ng'ombe hula nyasi na kutembea kwa vidole viwili. Ng'ombe waliofugwa na binadamu walitokana na
ng'ombe-mwitu ili kujipatia nyama na maziwa. Katika nchi nyingi hutumiwa pia kama mnyama wa mizigo
anayevuta plau au magari.
Wataalamu huamini ya kwamba aina zote za ng'ombe zina asili katika mashariki ya kati mnamo milenia ya
9 KKambako watu waliwahi kuwafuga na kutoka hapa ufugaji ng'ombe ulisambaa kote duniani.
Ng'ombe wanapatikana kote duniani na kuna aina kwa kila namna ya hali ya hewa. Wengine huishi katika
milimabaridi za Uskoti na Skandinavia, wengine katika joto la Afrika au Australia.
Wanacheua chakula chao na huwa na tumbo lenye vyumba vinne. Baada ya kula nyasi mara ya kwanza
wanairudisha kutoka chumba cha kwanza cha tumbo na kuitafuna tena. Kwa njia hii wanapata lishe nyingi
kutoka nyasi.

Cattlecolloquially cows[note 1]are the most common type of largedomesticated ungulates. They are a
prominent modern member of thesubfamily Bovinae, are the most widespread species of the genus Bos,
and are most commonly classified collectively as Bos taurus. Cattle are raised aslivestock for meat
(beef and veal), as dairy animals for milk and other dairy products, and as draft animals (oxen or bullocks
that pull carts, plows and other implements). Other products include leather and dung for manure orfuel. In
some regions, such as parts of India, cattle have significant religious meaning. From as few as 80
progenitors domesticated in southeast Turkey about 10,500 years ago, [1] according to an estimate from
2011, there are 1.4 billion cattle in the world.[2] In 2009, cattle became one of the first livestock animals to
have a fully mapped genome.[3] Some consider cattle the oldest form of wealth, and cattle
raiding consequently one of the earliest forms of theft.

Taxonomy
See also: Bos and Bovinae
Cattle were originally identified as three separate species: Bos taurus, theEuropean or "taurine"
cattle (including similar types from Africa and Asia);Bos indicus, the zebu; and the extinct Bos primigenius,
the aurochs. The aurochs is ancestral to both zebu and taurine cattle. [citation needed] Now, these have been
reclassified as one species, Bos taurus, with three subspecies:Bos taurus primigenius, Bos taurus indicus,
and Bos taurus taurus.[4][5]
Complicating the matter is the ability of cattle to interbreed with other closely related species. Hybrid
individuals and even breeds exist, not only between taurine cattle and zebu (such as the sanga cattle, Bos
taurus africanus), but also between one or both of these and some other members of
the genusBos yaks (the dzo or yattle[6]), banteng, and gaur. Hybrids such as thebeefalo breed can even
occur between taurine cattle and either species ofbison, leading some authors to consider them part of the
genus Bos, as well.[7] The hybrid origin of some types may not be obvious for example,genetic testing of
the Dwarf Lulu breed, the only taurine-type cattle in Nepal, found them to be a mix of taurine cattle, zebu,
and yak.[8] However, cattle cannot successfully be hybridized with more distantly related bovines such
aswater buffalo or African buffalo.
The aurochs originally ranged throughout Europe, North Africa, and much of Asia. In historical times, its
range became restricted to Europe, and the last known individual died in Masovia, Poland, in about 1627.
[9]
Breeders have attempted to recreate cattle of similar appearance to aurochs by crossing traditional types
of domesticated cattle, creating the Heck cattle breed.
Etymology
Cattle did not originate as the term for bovine animals. It was borrowed fromAnglo-Norman catel, itself from
medieval Latin capitale 'principal sum of money, capital', itself derived in turn from
Latin caput 'head'. Cattle originally meant movable personal property, especially livestock of any kind, as
opposed to real property (the land, which also included wild or small free-roaming animals such
aschickens they were sold as part of the land).[10] The word is a variant of chattel(a unit of personal
property) and closely related to capital in the economic sense.[11] The term replaced earlier Old
English feoh 'cattle, property', which survives today as fee (cf. German: Vieh, Dutch: vee, Gothic: faihu).
The word "cow" came via Anglo-Saxon c (plural c), from Common IndoEuropean gus (genitive gows) = "a bovine animal", compare Persian gv, Sanskrit go-, Welsh buwch.
[12]
The plural c became ki or kie in Middle English, and an additional plural ending was often added,
giving kine, kien, but also kies, kuin and others. This is the origin of the now archaic English plural, "kine".
The Scots language singular is coo or cou, and the plural is "kye".
In older English sources such as the King James Version of the Bible, "cattle" refers to livestock, as
opposed to "deer" which refers to wildlife. "Wild cattle" may refer to feral cattle or to undomesticated
species of the genus Bos. Today, when used without any other qualifier, the modern meaning of "cattle" is
usually restricted to domesticated bovines.[13]
Terminology
Look up cattle or cow in
Wiktionary, the free
dictionary.
An Ongole bull
A Hereford bull
In general, the same words are used in different parts of the world, but with minor differences in the
definitions. The terminology described here contrasts the differences in definition between the United
Kingdom and other British-influenced parts of world such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and
the United States.[14]
An "intact" (i.e., not castrated) adult male is called a bull. A wild, young, unmarked bull is known as
a "micky" in Australia.[15] An unbranded bovine of either sex is called a "maverick" in the USA and
Canada.
An adult female that has had a calf (or two, depending on regional usage) is acow.
A young female before she has had a calf of her own[16] and is under three years of age is called
a heifer (/hfr/ HEF-r).[17] A young female that has had only one calf is occasionally called a first-calf
heifer.
Young cattle of both sexes are called calves until they are weaned, thenweaners until they are a
year old in some areas; in other areas, particularly with male beef cattle, they may be known as feeder
calves or simply feeders. After that, they are referred to as yearlings or stirks[18] if between one and
two years of age.[19]
A castrated male is called a steer in the United States; older steers are often called bullocks in
other parts of the world,[20] but in North America this term refers to a young bull. Piker bullocks are micky
bulls (uncastrated young male bulls) that were caught, castrated and then later lost. [15] In Australia, the
term "Japanese ox" is used for grain-fed steers in the weight range of 500 to 650 kg that are destined
for the Japanese meat trade.[21] In North America, draft cattle under four years old are called working
steers. Improper or late castration on a bull results in it becoming a coarse steer known as a stag in
Australia, Canada and New Zealand.[22] In some countries, an incompletely castrated male is known
also as a rig.
A castrated male (occasionally a female or in some areas a bull) kept for draft purposes is called
an ox (plural oxen); "ox" may also be used to refer to some carcass products from any adult cattle,
such as ox-hide, ox-blood, oxtail, or ox-liver.[17]
In all cattle species, a female twin of a bull usually becomes an infertile partial intersex, and is
called a freemartin.
Neat (horned oxen, from which neatsfoot oil is derived), beef (young ox) and beefing (young animal
fit for slaughtering) are obsolete terms, although poll, pollard or polled cattle are still terms in use for
naturally hornless animals, or in some areas also for those that have been disbudded or dehorned.
Cattle raised for human consumption are called beef cattle. Within the American beef cattle
industry, the older term beef (plural beeves) is still used to refer to an animal of either sex. Some
Australian, Canadian, New Zealand and British people use the term beast, especially for single
animals when the sex is unknown.[24]
Cattle bred specifically for milk production are called milking or dairy cattle;[14] a cow kept to
provide milk for one family may be called a house cow or milker. A "fresh cow" is a dairy term for a
cow or first-calf heifer who has recently given birth, or "freshened."
The adjective applying to cattle in general is usually bovine. The terms "bull", "cow" and "calf" are
also used by extension to denote the sex or age of other large animals,
including whales, hippopotamuses, camels, elk andelephants.

A Brahman calf
"Cow" is in general use as a singular for the collective "cattle", despite the objections by those who insist it
to be a female-specific term. Although the phrase "that cow is a bull" is absurd from a lexicographic
standpoint, the word "cow" is easy to use when a singular is needed and the sex is unknown or irrelevant
when "there is a cow in the road", for example. Further, any herd of fully mature cattle in or near
a pasture is statistically likely to consist mostly of cows, so the term is probably accurate even in the
restrictive sense. Other than the few bulls needed for breeding, the vast majority of male cattle are
castrated as calves and slaughtered for meat before the age of three years. Thus, in a pastured herd, any
calves or herd bulls usually are clearly distinguishable from the cows due to distinctively different sizes and
clear anatomical differences. Merriam-Webster, a US dictionary, recognizes the sex-nonspecific use of
"cow" as an alternate definition,[27] whereas Collins, a UK dictionary, does not.
Colloquially, more general nonspecific terms may denote cattle when a singular form is needed. Australian,
New Zealand and British farmers use the term "beast" or "cattle beast". "Bovine" is also used in Britain. The
term "critter" is common in the western United States and Canada, particularly when referring to young
cattle.[28] In some areas of the American South (particularly the Appalachian region), where both dairy and
beef cattle are present, an individual animal was once called a "beef critter", though that term is
becoming archaic.

Cattle raised for human consumption are called "beef cattle". Within the beef cattle industry in parts of the
United States, the term "beef" (plural "beeves") is still used in its archaic sense to refer to an animal of
either sex. Cows of certain breeds that are kept for the milk they give are called "dairy cows" or "milking
cows" (formerly "milch cows"). Most young male offspring of dairy cows are sold forveal, and may be
referred to as veal calves.
The term "dogies" is used to describe orphaned calves in the context of ranch work in the American West,
as in "Keep them dogies moving".[29] In some places, a cow kept to provide milk for one family is called a
"house cow". Other obsolete terms for cattle include "neat" (this use survives in "neatsfoot oil", extracted
from the feet and legs of cattle), and "beefing" (young animal fit for slaughter).
An onomatopoeic term for one of the most common sounds made by cattle is "moo" (also called lowing).
There are a number of other sounds made by cattle, including calves bawling, and bulls bellowing. Bawling
is most common for cows after weaning of a calf. The bullroarer makes a sound similar to a bull's territorial
]call.[30

L.
Species
Buxus sempervirens
Buxus is a genus of about 70 species in the family Buxaceae. Common names include box (majority of
English-speaking countries) or boxwood(North America).[1]
The boxes are native to western and southern Europe, southwest, southern and eastern Asia, Africa,
Madagascar, northernmost South America, Central America, Mexico and the Caribbean, with the majority of
species being tropical or subtropical; only the European and some Asian species are frost-tolerant. Centres
of diversity occur in Cuba (about 30 species), China (17 species) and Madagascar (9 species).
They are slow-growing evergreen shrubs and small trees, growing to 212 m (rarely 15 m) tall.
The leaves are opposite, rounded to lanceolate, and leathery; they are small in most species, typically 1.5
5 cm long and 0.3-2.5 cm broad, but up to 11 cm long and 5 cm broad in B. macrocarpa. The flowers are
small and yellow-green, monoecious with both sexes present on a plant. The fruit is a small capsule 0.51.5 cm long (to 3 cm in B. macrocarpa), containing several small seeds.
The genus splits into three genetically distinct sections, each section in a different region, with the Eurasian
species in one section, the African (except northwest Africa) and Madagascan species in the second, and
the American species in the third. The African and American sections are genetically closer to each other
than to the Eurasian section.[2]

Uses[edit]
Cultivation[edit]
Box plants are commonly grown as hedges and for topiary.
In Great Britain and Mainland Europe box is subject to damage from caterpillarsof Diaphania
perspectalis which can devastate a box hedge within a short time. This is a recently introduced species first
noticed in Europe in 2007 and in the UK in 2008 but spreading. There were 3 UK reports of infestation in
2011, 20 in 2014 and 150 in the first half of 2015. [3]
Wood carving[edit]
The white pieces are made of boxwood. The black piece is ebonized, not ebony.
Owing to its fine grain it is a good wood for fine wood carving, although this is limited by the small sizes
available. It is also resistant to splitting and chipping, and thus useful for decorative or storage boxes.
Formerly, it was used for wooden combs. As a timber or wood for carving it is "boxwood" in all varieties of
English.
Owing to the relatively high density of the wood (it is one of the few woods that are denser than water),
boxwood is often used for chess pieces, unstained boxwood for the white pieces and stained ('ebonized')
boxwood for the black pieces, in lieu of ebony.[4]
The extremely fine endgrain of box makes it suitable forwoodblock printing and woodcut blocks, for which it
was the usual material in Europe.
High quality wooden spoons have usually been carved from box, with beech being the usual cheaper
substitute.
Boxwood was once called dudgeon, and was used for the handles of dirks, and daggers, with the result
that such a knife was known as a dudgeon. Although one "in high dudgeon" is indignant and enraged, and
while the image of a dagger held high, ready to plunge into an enemy, has a certain appeal, lexicographers
have no real evidence as to the origin of the phrase.
Musical instruments[edit]
Due to its high density and resistance to chipping, boxwood is a relatively economical material, and has
been used to make parts for various stringed instruments since antiquity.[5] It is mostly used to make
tailpieces, chin rests and tuning pegs, but may be used for a variety of other parts as well. Other woods
used for this purpose are rosewood and ebony.
Boxwood was a common material for the manufacture of recorders in the eighteenth century, and a large
number of mid- to high-end instruments made today are produced from one or other species of boxwood.
Boxwood was once a popular wood for other woodwind instruments, and was among the traditional woods
for Great Highland bagpipes before tastes turned to imported dense tropical woods such
as cocuswood, ebony, and African blackwood.[6]
Historical[edit]
General Thomas F. Meagher decorated the hats of the men of the Federal Irish Brigade with boxwood
during the American Civil War, as he could find no shamrock.[7]
