THE GENUS MEDICAGO IN IRAN: BIODIVERSITY AND VARIATION CENTERS
Biodiversity of the genus Medicago in Iran was studied. Distribution of two perennial species M. sativa and M. lupulina mainly conforms to the mountainous regions of Iran. Among the other annual species of this genus, M. rigidula has the most similar distribution to the distribution of perrenial species in mountainous regions. Most species of Medicago (apart from M. sativa and M. lupulina) are ...

متن کاملMedicago truncatula CYP716A12 is a multifunctional oxidase involved in the biosynthesis of hemolytic saponins.
Saponins, a group of glycosidic compounds present in several plant species, have aglycone moieties that are formed using triterpenoid or steroidal skeletons. In spite of their importance as antimicrobial compounds and their possible benefits for human health, knowledge of the genetic control of saponin biosynthesis is still poorly understood. In the Medicago genus, the hemolytic activity of sap...
