Ecological niche modeling is an effective tool to characterize the spatial distribution of suitable areas for species, and it is especially useful for predicting the potential distribution of invasive species. The widespread submerged plant Hydrilla verticillata (hydrilla) has an obvious phylogeographical pattern: Four genetic lineages occupy distinct regions in native range, and only one linea...

The antibacterial activity of essential oils extracted from medicinal plants (Ocimum gratissimum, L., Cybopogum citratus (DC) Stapf., and Salvia officinalis, L.) was assessed on bacterial strains derived from 100 urine samples. Samples were taken from subjects diagnosed with urinary tract infection living in the community. Microorganisms were plated on Müller Hinton agar. Plant extracts were ap...

methanolic extracts of five native species of salvia from the labiatae family were evaluated for antioxidant activity in low-erucic acid rapeseed oil using the schaal oven test at 60°c, with deterioration monitored by determination of peroxide value, conjugated diene content and p-anisidine value. the activity of the salvia extracts was compared with that of tbhq, ascorbyl palmitate, and extrac...

The effects of harvesting intensity on the growth Hydrilla verticillata (L. fil.) Royle as well water quality were studied in controlled experiments to provide a reference for managing submerged vegetation and purifying water. results showed that had significant effect recovery shoot H. height. harvested group recovered completely or mostly after two harvests, but time was significantly longer ...

HIGHLIGHTS Tissue culture technique is considered to be one of the best methods reproduce salvia plant. Salvia a medicinal plant with lots chemical constituents. plays an important role in treating different fatal diseases. Maximum fresh and dry weights were obtained at 1.5 mg L-1 melatonin. highest DPPH scavenging activity, total phenolics flavonoid content
