The walnut tree as a source of progesterone for reproductive control in goats by P. Chemineau, A.L. Lainé, D. Gennetay, C. Porte, D. Chesneau, C. Laclie, G. Goudet, M. Meunier, M. Delmas, M.L. Greil, P. Liere, A. Pianos, A. Bernard, E. Dirlewanger, J.A. Delgadillo, M. Keller

“…To explore alternatives using natural P4 from plants, we developed a method of ethanolic extraction and a specific enzyme immunoassay (EIA) to measure P4 in the different parts of the walnut tree Juglans regia. We found a very high concentration of P4, specifically in the leaves of the three most common French varieties (∼100 mg/kg of DM) but not in flowers, fruits, septa, husk, oil or cake. …”

Multiplication Operators between Lipschitz-Type Spaces on a Tree by Robert F. Allen, Flavia Colonna, Glenn R. Easley

“…Let ℒ be the space of complex-valued functions 𝑓 on the set of vertices 𝑇 of an infinite tree rooted at 𝑜 such that the difference of the values of 𝑓 at neighboring vertices remains bounded throughout the tree, and let ℒ𝐰 be the set of functions 𝑓∈ℒ such that |𝑓(𝑣)−𝑓(𝑣−)|=𝑂(|𝑣|−1), where |𝑣| is the distance between 𝑜 and 𝑣 and 𝑣− is the neighbor of 𝑣 closest to 𝑜. …”
