Ongoing changes in Earth's climate are shifting the elevation ranges of many plant species with non-native species often experiencing greater expansion into higher elevations than native species. These climate change-induced shifts in distributions inevitably expose plants to novel biotic and abiotic environments, including altered solar ultraviolet (UV)-B (280-315 nm) radiation regimes. Do the...

background & aim: verbascum songaricum is a perennial herbaceous belongs to the scrophulariaceae (snapdragon) family. current study was done to study the environmental conditions effect on phytochemical properties of verbascum songaricum leaves for extracting the effective materials. experimental: this study was conducted at five range sites, including hoze valley, ghahiz, someirom, ghale ...

the present study was conducted to determine the antioxidant and antifungal effects ofmethanol extract from aerial part of verbascum speciosum. the total phenolic andflavonoid content and the antioxidant activity of the plant extract were determined byusing the folin-ciocalteau and the 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (dpph) free radicalscavenging assays. the total phenols and flavonoid content o...

the genus verbascum l. belongs to the family scrophulariaceae and includes plants that have been used widely in traditional medicine for a long time. methanolic extracts of three verbascum species from flora of iran were in vitro screened for their possible antioxidant activities by three complementary test systems, namely dpph free radical-scavenging, metal chelating activity and β-carotene/li...

The valleys of Restelica and Vraca in Kosovo have not been explored sufficiently due to their geographical position the harshness terrain. plant species Ranunculus degenii has collected Restelica, on way border with North Macedonia or between this road Albanian near Shishtavec, while Verbascum scardicola found valley. These localities are mainly dominated by silicate substrate, although presenc...

Plants have been used as folkloric sources of medicinal agents since the beginning of mankind. As the age of modern medicine, single pure drugs emerged, and plant-derived active principles, their semi-synthetic and synthetic analogs have served as a major route to new pharmaceuticals. Since 1961, plant-derived compounds have been approved for use as anticancer drugs: vinblastine (Velban®), vinc...

Indole acetic acid (IAA) is a plant growth-promoting hormone used in agriculture; therefore, its continuous production is of paramount importance. IAA-producing eight bacteria were isolated from the rhizosphere of Verbascum vulcanicum. Among them, Arthrobacter agilis A17 gave maximum IAA production (75 mg/L) and this strain was used to immobilization studies. The A. agilis A17 cells were immobi...
