oxidative stress and protein glycation play pivotal roles in the pathophysiology of diabetes mellitus and its vascular complications. the present study aimed to investigate the anti-glycation properties of essential oils obtained from different parts of juniperus communis subsp. hemisphaerica . the branchlets of male tree (bmt) and branchlets of female (bft) tree, and fruits of j. communis subs...

The objective of this work was to map population common juniper (Juniperus communis L.) in the territory Slovak Republic. Common is not protected by Slovakian law or authorities; therefore, there no preserve these plant populations. Biotopes consist light- heavy-density trees and shrubs. expansion its habitat also connected human involvement. loss naturally observed plants caused a change land ...

Data from goats (n = 505), collected over a 4-yr period, were used to estimate the heritability of juniper consumption. Juniper consumption was determined by near-infrared spectroscopy on fecal samples (n = 1,080) collected from female Boer-cross goats grazing pastures with a variety of plants, including juniper. The animals with records were progeny of 72 sires. Individual goats had from 1 to ...

Sequence data from four gene regions (nrDNA, petN-psbM, trnD-trnT, trnS-trnG, 3,705 bp) revealed that junipers from the southern mountain ranges of Iran are very diverse. The combined NJ tree (3,705 bp) showed strong support for the distinct nature of J. excelsa, J. polycarpos, J. p. var. turcomanica, and J. p. var. seravschanica. The samples from NW Iran are J. polycarpos and samples from NE I...
