Allium stenodon (Amaryllidaceae) is reported as a returning member of the Korean flora. This species proved to be only section Sikkimensia among species, and it easily distinguished by its cylindrical bulbs with fibrous sometimes subreticulate tunics blue purple-blue perianth. Previously recognized A. baekdusanense treated an additional synonym stenodon. Photographs complete descriptions are pr...

Bulbous Allium spp. such as “big-headed” elephant garlic (Allium ampeloprasum L.) and common sativus contain a wide range of bioactive compounds with health-promoting properties are most commonly used food seasonings. The objective the present study is to verify if there difference in selected nutraceuticals (dry matter, TPC, allicin) elemental profiles (macro- micro-elements) two species produ...

The article is devoted to the rare and endemic species Allium praemixtium Vved. growing in Nurata Reserve. Based on analysis of demographic indicators, state coenotic population was assessed. As a result, it revealed that studied coenopopulations are depressed. solution this problem can be strict protection these territories until they fully restored.

Eight commonly used spices Syzygium aromaticum, Cinnamonum zeylanicum, Zingiber officinale, Murraya koenigii, Piper nigrum, Trachyspermum ammi, Allium sativum and Allium cepa were tested for in vitro antifungal activity on Aspergillus niger, a causative agent of different destructive disease. Out of eight plant materials used, five showed significant antifungal activity against the test pathoge...

Interphase, preprophase, and prophase nuclei of meristematic cells of Allium cepa, Vicia faba, and Raphanus sativus are characterized by the presence of spherical bodies approximately 1 micro in diameter. These structures are Feulgen-negative but stain metachromatically with azure B, as the nucleolus, following fixation with glutaraldehyde. At the ultrastructural level, they consist predominant...

Inflammation is a commonly observed immune reaction, and rheumatoid arthritis is a particularly severe inflammatory disease. In this study, we used an air pouch mouse model to evaluate the anti-inflammatory potential of Allium hookeri, which has both been used as a culinary material and a traditional medicine in south-eastern Asia for many years. Allium hookeri suppressed typical symptoms of in...

The molecular structure of the exceptional telomeres of six plant species belonging to the order Asparagales and two species of the order Liliales was analyzed using Southern blot and fluorescence in situ hybridization. Three different situations were found, namely: i) In the two Liliales species, Tulipa australis (Liliaceae) and Merendera montana (Colchicaceae), the chromosome ends display hyb...

this study was carried out to evaluate the antifungal efficacy of garlic essential oil (allium sativum l.) and two fungicides including metalaxyl- mancozeb and mancozeb against phytophthora melonis, p. drechsleri and p. capsici the causal agent of damping- off on pepper, melon and cucumber, in vitro and greenhouse conditions. fungal radial growth for each concentration of garlic oil on phytopht...
