Salvia aethiopis is an aromatic species within the Lamiaceae family, used both as a herb and ornamental plant, yield quality of which, when cultivated on commercial basis, frequently affected by weed infestation. Therefore, application herbicide often required for production this species. Considering current study, pot experiment based upon completely randomized design, with three replications,...

Background & Aim: Free radicals play a crucial role in the development of tissue damage in various human diseases such as cancer, aging, neurodegenerative disease, malaria and arteriosclerosis, and pathological events in living organisms. Antioxidants may have an important role in the prevention of these diseases. The aim of this study is to evaluate potency of scavenging of DPPH free radicals ...

Salvia indica L., which belongs to section Aethiopis, is a perennial herb usually growing on rocky limestone slopes and Quercus scrubs in the Southeast Anatolia. In this study, the morphological, anatomical and palynological characteristics of this species using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) have been investigated. In addition, nutlet morphology, emended and expanded description, phenology...
