Gryshko National Botanical Garden, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, 6Department of Biotechnology, Palacký University Olomouc The protocol describes an easy-to-handle tool called Mistletoe Eradicator which combines mechanical and chemical approaches and is efficient in the control of mistletoe infestation on the host trees. The manuscript uses the European mistletoe (Viscum album subsp. album L.) as an example. Engineering Angle-resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy At Ultra-low Temperatures Sergey V.
