It has previously been demonstrated that far-red irradiation of dry Lactuca sativa L. seeds results in inhibition of subsequent germination. Although red has no effect on dry seeds, a red irradiation following a farred irradiation reverses the effect of far-red. This phenomenon is most noticeable in seeds with artificially raised levels of phytochrome in the far-red absorbing form. Qualitativel...

Two iridoid glucosides, catalpol and aucubin, one chlorinated iridoid aglycon, rehmaglutin D were isolated from the iridoid fraction of the aerial parts of Plantago lagopus L. together with the megastigman glucoside, phlomuroside. The structures of the isolated compounds were identified by means of spectroscopic (UV, HR-ESI, 1H-NMR, 13C NMR , HMQC, HMBC, COSY) methods. This is the first report ...

Plantago major (PM), also known as plantain, is a weed found in temperate zones worldwide. PM leaves have been associated with various biological properties ranging from antiinflammatory, antimicrobial and antitumour to wound healing. However, its mechanism of action associated with boosting of the immune function remains to be elucidated. We found that endotoxin-free methanol extracts from PM ...
