Olive agro-ecosystems in southern Italy have been heavily damaged due to Xylella fastidiosa subsp. pauca (Xfp). Replacing the Xfp-infected olive-growing areas with economically viable fruit tree species is thought be a practical control measure. A land suitability analysis can provide an appropriate evaluation of crop’s these areas. We evaluate almond (Prunus dulcis B.), fig (Ficus carica L.), ...

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is the most important factor of gastric disease in clinical practice. Moreover, smoking, stress and a poor diet may be additive factors for gastric damage. With these factors, increasing infection of H. pylori triggers gastritis, gastric ulcers and gastric cancer. To develop a new protective agent, we are concerned with plant-derived extract. The extract of Copti...

Abstract A high-quality genome is the basis for studies on functional, evolutionary, and comparative genomics. The majority of attention has been paid to solution complex chromosome structures highly repetitive sequences, along with emergence a new “telomere-to-telomere (T2T) assembly” era. However, bioinformatic tools automatic construction and/or characterization T2T are limited. Here, we dev...

Dried flowers of Trollius chinensis have long been used as an important traditional Chinese medicine. Previous studies have demonstrated the ability of T. chinensis flavonoids to reduce the proliferation of human breast cancer MCF-7 cells. The present study further investigated the influence of T. chinensis flavonoids on the growth and proliferation of MCF-7 cells and observed clear inhibitory ...

Kiwifruit hold significant nutritional value and are a good source of antioxidants due to their diverse range bioactive compounds. waste is generated throughout the food supply chain, particularly during transportation storage. rejected from retail market unfavorable appearance still possess potential economic as kiwifruit abundant in phenolic The present work studied profile antioxidant kiwifr...

The Coptis chinensis Franch. is an important medicinal plant from the Ranunculales. We used next generation sequencing technology to determine the complete chloroplast genome of C. chinensis. This genome is 155,484 bp long with 38.17% GC content. Two 26,758 bp long inverted repeats separated the genome into a typical quadripartite structure. The C. chinensis chloroplast genome consists of 128 g...
