The diethyl ether and ethyl acetate fractions of the peel fruit Solanum incanum. (S. incanum) were analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS). 105 compounds identified in fraction 75 fraction. Among them, 5 by fragmentation pattern, discussed, compared with NIST database. antibacterial screening was also conducted for bothdiethyl S.incanum four pathogens, two Gram-positive bact...

Orthodox seeds may present ditTerences in germination due to severa] reasons. Poor seed germination Iimits the use of different species for culture or p]ant breeding. In this work, we tested treatments for improving germination in two cultivars of common eggplant (Solanum melongena) and in six accessions of the related species S. macrocarpon, S. aethiopicum, and S. incanum. With the exception o...

Advanced backcrosses (ABs) and introgression lines (ILs) of eggplant (Solanum melongena) can speed up genetics and genomics studies and breeding in this crop. We have developed the first full set of ABs and ILs in eggplant using Solanum incanum, a wild eggplant that has a relatively high tolerance to drought, as a donor parent. The development of these ABs and IL eggplant populations had a low ...

The systematic relationships and phylogeography of Cerion incanum, the only species of Cerion native to the Florida Keys, are reviewed based on partial sequences of the mitochondrial COI and 16S genes derived from 18 populations spanning the range of this species and including the type localities of all four described subspecies. Our samples included specimens of Cerion casablancae, a species i...

The wild species Solanum incanum has been used as a donor parent for the development of set eggplant introgression lines (ILs), which are interest breeding stress tolerances and relevant morpho-agronomic traits but could also be useful fruit quality, due to generally higher content in health-promoting compounds S. incanum. use ILs with introgressions from requires ensuring that glycoalkaloids l...

Eggplant (Solanum melongena) is amenable to grafting and this technique can be exploited to improve production of this vegetable crop. Here, we study the performance of the ‘Cristal F1’ eggplant cultivar grafted onto a total of 17 rootstocks, including five families, each of which is made by two parents and their hybrid, as well a commercial eggplant rootstock and a self-grafted control. Three ...

BACKGROUND The common or brinjal eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) belongs to the Leptostemonum Clade (the "spiny" solanums) of the species-rich genus Solanum (Solanaceae). Unlike most of the genus, the eggplant and its relatives are from the Old World; most eggplant wild relatives are from Africa. An informal system for naming eggplant wild relatives largely based on crossing and other biosystem...

Background: The Solanum species have been used for the treatment of warts, tumor and cancer in folk medicine. The S. incanum extract is an important traditional Chinese medicine in Taiwan since 1973. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Solanum incanum (synonym: Solanum undatum) extract (SR-T100), a water-soluble product primarily composed of alkaloid sola...

OBJECTIVE To examine the in vitro antibacterial activity of the ethanol extract of fresh fruits of Solanum incanum L., fresh leaves of Ricinus communis L. and Allium ampeloprasum var. porrum L., and to determine and quantify the phenol compounds of the investigated plant parts. METHODS This study was carried out at the Faculty of Science, King Khalid University, Abha, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia ...
