This research was carried out to study the effect of TiO2 and nano-TiO2 on some chemical compounds in a medicinal plant Lallemantia iberica under water deficit conditions. The experiment was conducted as a factorial arrangement in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The first factor was the application of external materials as spraying with 3 levels of control, TiO2 and ...

Background: Researchers are seeking new plant compounds as an alternative to chemical drugs and antibiotics due to the increasing resistance of pathogenic bacteria to antibiotics. This study investigated the antibacterial effect of Plantago ovata and Lallemantia iberica L. seed extracts on some foodborne human pathogenic bacteria. Materials and Methods: Disk-diffusion antibiotic sensitivity te...

Methods: Different chromatographic methods such as column chromatographies using Silica gel (normal and revers...

Forty-five unmanaged honeybee colonies from the south-east of the Iberian Peninsula (Apis mellifera iberica) were selected for analysing their genetic structure using eight microsatellite loci. These colonies were not subjected to management for queen replacement, rearing or migratory movements and previous studies showed that they had mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of African origin. Six of the mic...

Balangu is a medicinal plant used in the Iranian traditional medicine to treat nervous, hepatic and renal diseases. To determine effects of Myco-Root biofertilizer chitosan nanoparticles (Cs-NPs) on physiological biochemical properties balangu (Lallemantia iberica (M.Bieb.) Fisch. & C.A.Mey.) under different irrigation levels, an experiment was laid out as factorial based completely randomi...

Hydraena is the largest genus within the water beetle family Hydraenidae, with ca. 1000 species distributed worldwide. Within this large genus some monophyletic groups of species are recognised, among them the "Haenydra" lineage, including ca. 90 species distributed in the western Palaearctic from the Iberian peninsula to Iran. Species of "Haenydra" have often very restricted distributions, and...
