Invasive alien species risk assessment and adaptive management are often hindered by a lack of information for most species. This work aims at predicting the probability successful establishment invasion Oenothera stucchii Soldano, neophyte invasive belonging to sect. subsect. Oenothera, in xerophilous grasslands grey dunes. Based on fine-scale field data, we modelled O. presence/absence abunda...

The differences are reported in the triacylglycerol (TG) structures of oils containing gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) from Oenothera biennis Linn seed oil (OBLO) from the wild plant, evening primrose seed oil (EPO) from a cultured plant, and bio-GLA oil (BIO) from a mold, the physiological functions of which were ascertained by animal testing. Reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic s...

The oil obtained from the evening primrose (Oenothera biennis) plant is usually taken orally in a gel cap form. This herbal supplement is most commonly used for the treatment of mastalgia and atopic dermatitis. While recommending this supplement to patients for many years for the treatment of mastalgia, this author was interested in researching the plant and the evidence supporting its use for ...

Ellagitannins are bioactive plant polyphenols of which more than 500 individual compounds have been identified from plants. An ellagitannin-rich fraction was isolated by Sephadex LH-20 from Oenothera biennis (common evening primrose) leaves and roots and analysed by high-performance liquid chromatography/diode-array detection coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry with an electrospray ion...

A new species of the genus Haploperla, Haploperla triangulatasp. n., is described and illustrated from specimens collected in Qinghai province, China. Haploperla triangulata is characterized by the epiproct mostly sclerotized and hairless, sub-triangular in dorsal view and blunt at tip; and by the aedeagus with two median elliptical lobes ventrally. The new species is compared with its most sim...
