p. atlantica subsp. kurdica, with the local name of baneh, is a wild medicinal plant which grows in kurdistan, iran.  the identification of resistance gene analogs holds great promise for the development of resistant cultivars. a pcr approach with degenerate primers designed according to conserved nbs-lrr (nucleotide binding site-leucine rich repeat) regions of known disease-resistance (r) gene...

Background: Malvaceae is a large herbal family with more than hundred genera and thousands of species. Some these species are well-known for their therapeutic activity, including Alcea. Aim: The purpose this study to isolate identify the biologically therapeutically active constituents flowers leaves Alcea kurdica alongside characterization extract composition. Methods: Extraction was done 70% ...

The polymers from mastic gum of Pistacia lentiscose and subspecies of Pistacia atlantica, (sp. kurdica, mutica and cabolica) have been isolated and characterised by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and 13C NMR spectroscopy as cis-1,4-poly-?-myrcenes. They were screened against Helicobacter pylori and other Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria to evaluate their antimicrobial action. In or...

The chemical entities of Mastic, Kurdica, Mutica and Cabolica gums from genus Pistacia have been isolated and characterised by GC-Mass Spectrometry, High Performance Liquid Chromatography and Column Chromatography. These chemical entities were screened for anti-microbial activities against nine strains of Helicobacter pylori and some other Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. The most bioa...

In this study, the essential oil (EO) of Pistacia atlantica subsp. kurdica was added at the rate of 10 g/kg of daily diet of rainbow trout and its effect on gut microbiota (Enterobacteriaceae, Lactobacillus spp., total count), growth performance and antioxidant status of rainbow trout fillet was investigated. Sixty apparently healthy rainbow trout with an approximate weight of 150 g ±3.5 were r...

the present study was designed to investigate the anti-melanogenic and cytotoxic activities of methanol extract of phlomis kurdica. the antioxidant and anti-tyrosinase activity of meoh extract from p. kurdica (mpk) were examined by dpph radical scavenging and mushroom tyrosinase activity assays (in vitro), respectively. furthermore, the effect of mpk on the melanin content, cellular tyrosinase ...
