The leaves and flowers of Verbascum species are used to treat respiratory disorders, haemorrhoids, rheumatic pain, and wounds as well as for the treatment of eczema and other types of inflammatory skin conditions in traditional Turkish medicine. We examined the effect of the methanolic extract of the aerial parts of Verbascum latisepalum Hub.-Mor. on the endothelium-dependent relaxation respons...

The behavioral and electrophysiological responses of the obliquebanded leafroller, Choristoneura rosaceana (Harris), and the redbanded leafroller, Argyrotaenia velutinana (Walker), to crude extracts of Arctium lappa, Bifora radians, Humulus lupulus, Xanthium strumarium, and Verbascum spp. were studied under laboratory conditions. Plant materials were dried and ground before extraction with meth...

Low levels of genetic diversity and divergence at nuclear loci have previously been observed for cycloidea and fil1-like genes within and between several Antirrhinum species, and divergence at these loci is also low between species in genera at different levels of relatedness in the former family Scrophulariaceae (Digitalis and Verbascum). The low divergence values are surprising, because (base...

We studied the relative importance of local variables and dispersal for the occurrence and colonisation of the epiphytic bryophytes Orthotricum speciosum (spore dispersed), and O. obtusifolium (spore and asexual gemmae) on aspen trees (‘patches’) in two forest landscapes (one old-growth and one fragmented) using multiple logistic regression. The relative importance of dispersal was quantified a...

The genus Theobroma found in the Amazon region is composed of 22 species, including Theobroma speciosum, better known as cacauí. These species are constantly threatened by forest fragmentation caused by human activities and require conservation strategies and management aimed at preserving them in their natural environments. The main objective of this study was to analyze the population structu...

Bu çalışma endemik Amanos Sığırkuyruğu ile Belen sığırkuyruğunun uçucu bileşenlerini ortaya çıkarmak için bitki eksratte edilmiş ve ultrasonic banyo yapılarak GS-MS analizi yapılmıştır. GC-MS kütüphanesinde sonuçlarına göre bileşenler kıyaslandığında, Sığırkuyruğunda kimyasal bileşenlerinin benzerlik ilişkileri toplam on üç bileşen bulunmuştur. ise dört tespit edildi. bileşenlerin biyoaktivitel...
