Prunus spinosa is a highly esteemed shrub in forest and landscape plantings. Shrubs with larger organs occur often and are considered either as large fruited forms of P. spinosa or as P. x fruticans, involving a hybridization process with the ancient cultivated P. insititia (crop-to-wild gene flow). As climate change may augment hybridization processes in the future, a hybrid origin is importan...

background & aim: salvia spinosa l. is a perennial shrub and aromatic plant belongs to the family lamiaceae. s. spinosa grows wild in some districts of iran. the aim of this study was to identify of the chemical components of s. spinosa in isfahan climatic conditions. experimental: the aerial parts of the plants were collected from isfahan province in 2014. the essential oil was extracted ...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES The in vitro antibacterial activity of ethanolic leaf extract of Vangueria spinosa Roxb. (Rubiaceae) alone and in combination with antibiotics (doxycycline and ofloxacin) by means of fractional inhibitory concentration indices (FICI) as well as by the use of time-kill assays against one Gram-positive bacterium (Staphylococcus aureus) and three Gram-negative bacteria (Esc...

Lasia spinosa or Unicorn plant is an important tropical spinous rhizomatous herb. This one of the native species Assam used as vegetable and in Ayurvedic medicines. There are two distinct morphological types spinosa: Morphotype-I i.e.having dissected laminal hastate form Morphotype- II i.e. form. The current study revealed that physical anatomical parameters assent with genetic diversity throug...

The aim of this study was to ascertain the anti-arthritic active fraction of Capparis spinosa L. (Capparidaceae) fruits and its chemical constituents. The adjuvant arthritic rat model was developed to evaluate the anti-arthritic effects of different fractions of ethanol extraction from C. spinosa L. The fraction eluted by ethanol-water (50:50, v/v) had the most significant anti-arthritic activi...

Abstract Background Acetoin utilization protein (acuC) is a type I histone deacetylase which highly conserved in bacteria. The acuC gene related to the acetylation/deacetylation posttranslational modification (PTM) system S. spinosa. Spinosyns, secondary metabolites produced by Saccharopolyspora spinosa , are active ingredients family of insect control agents. However, specific functions and in...
