Hamiltonia suaveolens, Sphaeranthus indicus and Ziziphus jujuba Mill are one of the most important traditional medicinal plants. The primary indigenous use of these plants appears to be of the leaves, flowers and root as a topical treatment for wound healing. The Methanol extract of leaves, flower and root of these plants were used to evaluate the wound-healing activity in rats, using excision ...

Chinese jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill.) is an economically important fruit tree with outstanding adaptability to marginal lands and a broad range of climate conditions. There are over 800 cultivars, mostly landraces from China. However, high rate mislabeling in germplasm restricts the sharing information materials among researchers hampers use breeding. In present study, we developed large panel...

Although Ziziphus jujuba Mill (jujube) is used in folk medicine for hypnotic sedative, anxiolytic, and many other purposes, to date, only a few studies have revealed its sleep-promoting effects related mechanisms. Currently, drugs the treatment of sleep disorders various side effects, so it essential develop safe natural materials. Therefore, we evaluated sleep-enhancing activity mechanism acti...

Water shortage is the main bottleneck restricting sustainable development of rain-fed jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill.) orchards in loess hilly region China. Given effect mulching on soil moisture conservation, straw (SM) and branch (BM) were applied to a orchard this study. Soil dynamics, water storage, consumption, attenuation after typical rainfall under SM, BM, clean tillage (CT) studied. The ...

Reverse transcription-quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) is a powerful method for evaluating patterns of gene expression. Jujube whole-genome sequencing has been completed, and analysis of gene function, an important part of any follow-up study, requires the appropriate selection of reference genes. Indeed, suitable reference gene selection for RT-qPCR is critical for ac...
