Low levels of genetic diversity and divergence at nuclear loci have previously been observed for cycloidea and fil1-like genes within and between several Antirrhinum species, and divergence at these loci is also low between species in genera at different levels of relatedness in the former family Scrophulariaceae (Digitalis and Verbascum). The low divergence values are surprising, because (base...

The article contains new information about the locations of rare and spreading species flowering plants in Western Siberia Southern Ural (Kurgan Region, Chelyabinsk Tomsk Republic Altai).

Verbascumkurdistanicum Fırat (Scrophulariaceae), is described and illustrated as a new species that is located in Hakkâri, Turkey. In this study, diagnostic morphological characters of this and closely related species (Verbascumoreophilum K.Koch and Verbascumpyramidatum M. Bieb) are discussed. Furthermore, distribution maps for the three taxa are provided.

Verbascum thapsus is naturally grown in the Himalayas and widely used herbal teas traditional medicine for its anticarcinogenic anti-inflammatory properties. The present study was designed to majority of leaf extracts from thapsus. All were analysed phytochemical properties, antioxidant capacity antimicrobial potential against both Gram-positive Gram-negative bacteria. Biochemical investigation...
