The root restriction of protected cultivation has been widely used to increase productivity and sustainability in modern agriculture. However, there have few studies wolfberry (Lycium barbarum) restriction, it is cultivated mostly by clean tillage. In this study, we measured the growth Lycium barbarum composition diversity bacterial community soil properties L. under different methods with rest...

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of Lycium barbarum polysaccharides (LBP) on exercise-induced oxidative stress in rats. Rats were divided into four groups, i.e., one control group and three LBP treated groups. The animals received an oral administration of physiological saline or LBP (100, 200 and 400 mg/kg body weight) for 28 days. On the day of the exercise test...

Purpose. The objective of this study was to evaluate the morphological parameters Lycium spp. seeds from collections in M. Hryshko National Botanical Garden (NBS) NAS Ukraine. Methods. Cultivars and varieties three species (Lycium barbarum, L. chinense, truncatum) were studied period 2016 till 2019. following morphometric measurments conducted: weight, length, width index shape. Basic statistic...

Miller and Venable (1) claimed that polyploidy is a “trigger of unrecognized importance” for the evolution of gender dimorphism, an idea originally proposed by Jennings (2) and Baker (3). In our opinion, their phylogenetic analysis of North American Lycium (Solanaceae) does not support the claimed associations between polyploidy, self-fertility, and gender dimorphism. There is no support (boots...

The antihyperglycemic activity of a polysaccharide fraction from Lycium barbarum (LBP) was investigated. The various parameters studied included body weight, fasting blood glucose levels, total cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride (TG) in diabetic and normal mice. LBP treatment (20, 40 mg/ kg body weight) for 28 days resulted in a significant decrease in the concentration of fasting blood glucose ...
