Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is the major problem in the world. Nowadays, new anti-retroviral drugs are extracted from medicinal plants, make an important role to supersede synthetic drugs with different side effects. In this study, we studied the Salix aegyptiaca L extract, Iranian herb, as an anti-HIV drug with anti-retroviral effects. We used a single cycle replicable (SCR) H...

TTrypanosoma evansi, is one among several species of Trypanosomes responsible for a major protozoan parasitic disease domestic animals. The current study aimed to investigate the trypanocidal effects aqueous and methanolic leaf extracts Balanites aegyptiacaDel (Zygophyllaceae) suramin on albino rats infected with Trypanosoma evansi. In total, 35 Swiss randomly separated into seven (7) groups (A...

orobanche aegyptiaca, commonly known as egyptian broomrape, is a holo-parasite that causes high economic damages on tomato production in iran. breeding for resistance is the most economic and feasible method to reduce broomrape infestation. 20 tomato cultivars and four wild tomato species were screened for o. aegyptiaca resistance. tomato yield reduction, dry weight reduction of shoot and root,...

Effects of mowing and grazing on a Leymus chinensis grassland in the Songnen plain of northeastern China were studied using eight replicates of four grazing and mowing treatments. Canopy cover and biomass of the dominant species (L. chinensis) were lower, and cover of the halophyte Suaeda corniculata higher, on grazed than ungrazed; ungrazed plots showed a response to mowing, but not grazing; s...

Seven samples of halophyte plants (Bassia hirsuta Aschers, Euphorbia peplis L., Salicornia europeae L., Calystegia soldanella, Calystegia sepium, Stachys maritima Gonan and Suaeda maritima Dumort,) were collected from a sand bar near the town of Pomorie (Bulgaria). The soil salinity ranged between 650 and 850 mg salts in 100 g soil. For comparison, two other samples from the species Calistegia ...

Cultivation of salt-tolerant crops help to face irreversible global salinization freshwater and soils. In New-Caledonia, three halophytes are candidates for saline crops, Salsola australis R.Br., Suaeda maritima (L.) Dumort Enchylaena tomentosa R.Br. Their success quality depend yet on availabilities salinity essential nutrients in agrosystems. So, we investigated effects salinities, i.e., cont...

Aims: This work is aimed at investigating physicochemical parameters and compositions of fatty acid, phospholipid sterol desert date (Balanites aegyptiaca) kernel pulp.
 Study Design: Balanites aegyptiaca fruit one the oldest feed-stocks in Africa which little or no attention has been given to it. The plant plays a diverse cultural traditional role different societies. Therefore, it very i...
