31 Plant species differ in their ability to transform available recourses to biomass and to respond 32 in a plastic way to environmental circumstances; we hypothesized that such differences 33 among four weed taxa of Papaver would explain differences in their competitive response. 34 We first compared two populations each of Papaver rhoeas L., P. dubium L. ssp. dubium, P. 35 dubium L. ssp. leco...

Papaver rhoeas L. and P. orientale L., which belong to the family Papaveraceae, are used as ornamental and medicinal plants. The chloroplast genome has been used for molecular markers, evolutionary biology, and barcoding identification. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome sequences of P. rhoeas and P. orientale are reported. Results show that the complete chloroplast genomes of P. rh...

INTRODUCTION In this study we investigated the effect of gall of Quercus brantii Lindl., a traditional Iranian medicine, in a murine model of experimental colitis induced in male rats by rectal administration of 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS). MATERIAL AND METHODS Quantification of the main active components was done for estimation of total phenolic content and free gallic acid. G...
