Bunium persicum (Boiss.) is an economically important medicinal plant growing wild in arid regions in Iran. The essential oil of B. persicum (EOBP) was extracted using hydrodistillation. A total of eighteen compounds, representing 96.14 % of the oil was identified by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS).The main compounds were cuminaldehyde (23.04 %), gamma-terpinene (14.48 %), trans-3...

Listeriosis is acknowledged as a major foodborne disease throughout the world caused by Listeria monocytogenes. Different factors can affect the growth of food borne microbial pathogens. The aim of this study was to investigate the combined effects of different concentrations of Bunium persicum essential oil (EO) (0%, 0.08%, 0.16%, 0.24%), three incubation temperatures (35ºC, 25ºC, 4ºC), three ...

the genetic diversity of 20 iranian populations of bunium persicum has been evaluated with random amplified polymorphic dna (rapd) and amplified fragment length polymorphism (aflp) markers. fresh leaves of seedlings from each population were used for genomic dna extraction. analysis of banding patterns of 15 rapd primers and 17 aflp primer combinations, revealed 192 (86%) and 228 (75%) polymorp...
