BACKGROUND Traditional alcoholic beverages (TABs) have only received marginal attention from researchers and ethnobotanists so far, especially in Italy. This work is focused on plant-based TABs in the Alta Valle del Reno, a mountainous area on the border between Tuscany and Emilia-Romagna regions. The aims of our study were to document local knowledge about TABs and to analyze and discuss the d...

In vitro micropropagation is already a current multiplication tool for walnut self-rooted cultivars and rootstocks, but grafting still performed in the field or greenhouses, mainly using seedlings as rootstocks. The present work describes new approach to obtain clonal walnut-grafted plants, involving shoot production of ‘Paradox’ (Juglans hindsi × Juglans regia) cl. ’Vlach’, be used rootstock, ...

Juglans regia, commonly known as the Walnut tree, is a type of deciduous tree. The tree has many important parts, seed, bark, husk, leaves, oil, shell fruit and kernel. plant been used in its crude form since ages. kernel holds nutritional value. leaves contain an essential oil which extracted used. husk contains steroids vitamins amongst other useful compounds. are topically antipyretic, analg...

Natural products isolated from plant sources are well known for their pharmacological potential in diversity of disease treatments such as inflammatory or cancer conditions. Mango (Mangifera indica L.) and Juglans regia are thought to be rich of functional phytochemicals. To elucidate the anticancer activity of Juglans regia (JR) and Mangifera indica L (MI) aqueous extract were investigated on ...
