Studies on Effects of Pruning on Vegetative Traits in Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni (Compositae)

Opinion on Stevia Rebaudiana Bertoni plants and leaves

Is Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni a Non Cariogenic Sweetener? A Review.

Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni is a small perennial shrub of the Asteraceae (Compositae) family that is native to South America, particularly Brazil and Paraguay, where it is known as "stevia" or "honey leaf" for its powerful sweetness. Several studies have suggested that in addition to their sweetness, steviosides and their related compounds, including rebaudioside A and isosteviol, may offer addit...

In Vitro Evaluation of Some Traits in Stevia rebaudiana (Bertoni) under Drought Stress and Their Relationship on Stevioside Content

The experiment was conducted to evaluate the differences of plant growth as well as sweetener material of two types of Stevia rebaudiana under conditions of absence and presence of drought stress. In vitro, the experiment was conducted as drought traits using four levels of polyethylene glycol (0.0, 10,000, 20,000, 30,000 ppm). It was observed that survival % and No. of shoots should be conside...

Additional minor diterpene glycosides from Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni.

Two additional novel minor diterpene glycosides were isolated from the commercial extract of the leaves of Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni. The structures of the new compounds were identified as 13-{β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-O-[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-β-D-glucopyranosyl-oxy} ent-kaur-16-en-19-oic acid {β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-O-[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1 → 3)]-O-β-D-glucupyranosyl-ester} (1), and 1...

effects of salinity on some morphological characteristics of stevia plant (stevia rebaudiana bertoni) in vitro condition

stevia rebaudiana bertoni is a medicinal, perennial and herbaceous plant from asteraceae family with sweet glycosides in its leaves. salinity stress is one of the important limiters in agricultural productions. salinity influences the growth and development of plant by effect on more activities in physiological and morphological characteristics. to study the effect of salinity on morphological ...
