BACKGROUND Natural products obtained from plants can be potent sources for developing a variety of pharmaceutical products. Allium species have been widely studied for their anti-cancer effects and presented promising results as potential anti-cancer agents. Breast cancer (BCa) is one of the most commonly diagnosed types of cancer in women. In this study, we aimed to investigate the anti-prolif...

Selenium is an element that must be considered in the nutrition of certain crops since its use allows the obtaining of biofortified crops with a positive impact on human health. The objective of this review is to present the information on the use of Se and S in the cultivation of plants of the genus Allium. The main proposal is to use Allium as specialist plants for biofortification with Se an...

The effect of chemical mutagens on the induction of mitotic chromosomal aberrations in diploid Allium cepa and tetraploid Allium vineale has been studied. In inducing chromosomal aberrations in case of both diploid and tetraploid Allium all the mutagens were found to be effective . Mitotic irregularities were higher in tetraploid species as compared with the diploid species. All types of chemic...

Plant diseases are a threat for global food safety. Allium obliquum, Allium fistulosum, Allium ursinum, Aloe vera, Berberis vulgaris and Chelidonium majus plant extracts were obtained by the repercolation method and the antifungal activity was determined by the agar-dilution assay against Apergillus niger, Botrytis cinerea, Botrytis paeoniae, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. gladioli, Fusarium oxyspor...
