چکیده

Extracts from Erodium cicutarium L. (EC) and some standard substances present in EC extracts were tested for their antioxidative properties during Fe(2+)-induced triglyceride oxidation. Hydrophobic fractions such as petroleum ether (PEE), benzene (BE) and chloroform I (ChE I) extracts as well as hydrophilic fractions i.e. water (WE) and ethyl acetate (EAE) showed an antioxidative effect. Among the tested substances vitamin C and some polyphenolic compounds: tannin, (+)-catechin and gallic acid exhibited antioxidative activity, stronger than the one of the mentioned extracts.

High water-use efficiency and growth contribute to success of non-native Erodium cicutarium in a Sonoran Desert winter annual community

The success of non-native, invasive species may be due to release from natural enemies, superior competitive abilities, or both. In the Sonoran Desert, Erodium cicutarium has increased in abundance over the last 30 years. While native species in this flora exhibit a strong among-species trade-off between relative growth rate and water-use efficiency, E. cicutarium seems to have a higher relativ...

Self-burial Mechanism of Erodium cicutarium and Its Potential Application for Subsurface Exploration

Erodium cicutarium L. plants disperse their seeds by a combination of two dispersal strategies: explosive dispersal, and self-burial dispersal. As the fruits dry, the stresses developed in the structure cause the sudden separation of the seeds that fly away from the plant. Then, once on the ground, the seeds respond to variations in the external humidity : their dispersal unit, is helical when ...
