In this study, the total phenolic and flavonoid contents antioxidant activities of hexane methanol extracts Cotoneaster transcaucasicus Pojark. fruits in Rosaceae family were investigated. Using Folin-Ciocaltaeu method, amount substances was determined as 50.34 ± 2.70 mg GAE/g extract 38.06 1.32 extract. The flavonoids calculated 52.01 3.78 QE/g 60.54 6.82 extract, using aluminum nitrate method...

We sampled the 5' end of the granule-bound starch synthase gene (GBSSI or waxy) in Rosaceae, sequencing 108 clones from 18 species in 14 genera representing all four subfamilies (Amygdaloideae, Maloideae, Rosoideae, and Spiraeoideae), as well as four clones from Rhamnus catharticus (Rhamnaceae). This is the first phylogenetic study to use the 5' portion of this nuclear gene. Parsimony and maxim...

The Genome Database for Rosaceae (GDR, http:/www.rosaceae.org), the long-standing central repository and data mining resource for Rosaceae research, has been enhanced with new genomic, genetic and breeding data, and improved functionality. Whole genome sequences of apple, peach and strawberry are available to browse or download with a range of annotations, including gene model predictions, alig...

The Maddenia clade of Prunus L. is monographed based on herbarium and field studies. Four species are currently accepted in this group: Prunus himalayana J.Wen, Prunus hypoleuca (Koehne) J.Wen, Prunus hypoxantha (Koehne) J.Wen, and Prunus gongshanensis J.Wen, with the last described herein as a new species. Maddenia fujianensis Y.T.Chang and Maddenia incisoserrata T.T.Yü & T.C.Ku are treated as...

Food-dependent exercise-induced anaphylaxis (FDEIA) is characterised by the onset of anaphylaxis during (or soon after) exercise preceded by ingestion of a food allergen. In FDEIA, both food allergens and exercise are independently tolerated. This syndrome has been associated with wheat, seafood, peanut, egg, milk, vegetables and fruits. Rosaceae fruits may also be involved. There are two major...

we have studied the medicinal plants of ghasemloo and then surveyed the usagepercentage of different parts from each specimen for the medicinal or diet consumptions atthree sites from the adjacent villages of ghasemloo valley, villages of west and eastazerbaijan including 17 questioners. during two years, the medicinal plants that have beencollected and provided as herbarium specimens were reco...

Plants have the capability to produce an extensive variety of chemical compounds that in turn exert important biological functions and modify different pathological conditions in both human and animals. In this way medicinal plants mediate their effects through Chemical compounds and these processes are identical to those already well understood for the chemical compounds in conventional drugs....
