A protocol for the in vitro establishment of two Sicilian genotypes of mulberry has been set up. Multiple shoots were initiated and plantlets were produced from buds collected from mature trees of Morus alba L. and Morus nigra L., grown in the field. The influence of two explanting times (September and December) of buds on the in vitro response has been observed. The percentage of sprouting aft...

Fractionation of the ethanolic extract of the stem bark of Morus yunanensis resulted in the isolation of a new Diels-Alder type adduct and two new flavones, named yunanensin A (1), yunanensol A (2) and yunanensol B (3), respectively, together with a known flavone (4). Their structures were determined on the basis of spectroscopic analysis and chemical methods. Among them, compound 1 showed mode...

background & aim: diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease characterized by elevated blood glucose levels and disturbances in carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism. the objective of the present investigation was to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of morus alba leaves in an animal model of diabetes. martial & methods: 30 adult male wistar strain rats (200-250 g) were divided randomly...

Mulberry, belonging to the order Rosales, family Moraceae, and genus Morus, has received attention because of both its economic and medicinal value, as well as for its important ecological function. The genus Morus has a worldwide distribution, however, its taxonomy remains complex and disputed. Many studies have attempted to classify Morus species, resulting in varied numbers of designated Mor...

in this study, cercospora sp.on olea europaea and pseudocercospora mori on morus alba are being recorded from iran. moreover, new reports were provided for cercospora apii s.l. (including c. canescens,c. citrullina, c. morina, c. sonchi, c. cruciferarumand c. helianthicola), and pseudocercospora rubi. also, helianthus sp., morus alba,raphanus sp. and taraxacum sp. are reported as new hosts forc...

Four new 2-arylbenzofuran derivatives, moracins V-Y (1-4), together with two known compounds, moracin N (5) and moracin P (6), were isolated from the leaves of Morus alba L. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis. Moracins X (3) and Y (4) represent unusual substituted group compared with 2-arylbenzofuran derivatives, which were isolated from the genus Morus. Compounds 2-5 we...

Morus alba L. has been used in traditional Chinese medicine and almost all parts of this plant are useful in cardiovascular, liver and spleen disorders. The present study was designed to investigate the inhibitory effect of a water extract from Morus alba L. (WMA) on vascular dysfunction in rat models fed a high fat and high cholesterol diet. Male rats were fed an atherogenic diet consisting of...
