This study aimed to evaluate the effect of different time taking cutting and IBA concentrations on rooting Myrtus communis L. White black myrtle types were used as plant materials. The cuttings obtained from Batı Akdeniz Agricultural Research Institute (BATEM) collection garden. effects 0 (control), 500, 1000, 2000, 4000 8000 mg L-1 doses applications (February, March, April May) investigated. ...

background & aim: myrtle (myrtus communis l.), is an important medicinal plant that is used for pharmacological uses and conservation of environments (for example preventing the soil erosion) regards to its specific condition habitat.experimental: in this research, phytochemical variations of the essential oils from different populations of myrtle collected from fars (saydan, cheshme-ali, a...

In this work, black and white Myrtus communis L. (myrtle) fruits some biochemical parameters were investigated such as vitamins, carotenes, functional peptides, oxidative stress markers (OSM), total phenolic (TP) flavonoid (TF) substances, antioxidant capacity (AC) amino acids contents. The myrtle had generally higher amounts of TP, AC acid (AA) contents than the fruits. dried in sun light micr...

true myrtle, myrtus communis l belonging to myrtaceae family is an important medicinal herb in traditional medicine and pharmaceutical industries in iran. moreover because of  being evergreen, having dense foliage and ease of pruning, it is planted at steep slopes, grasslands, boulevards and sidelines of parks as an ornamental shrub or hedge of green. it is distributed in southern europe, asia,...

The chemical composition of the essential oil of Portuguese myrtle was determined at different developmental stages of the plant: pre-flowering, flowering, unripe and ripe berries. The oil was extracted separately by Clevenger distillation from leaves, branches and berries. The yields vary from 0.33% to 0.74% for leaves, 0.02% to 0.19% for branches, and 0.11% to 0.23% for berries. The highest y...

BACKGROUND Fleas are important vectors of human and animal disease, and control measures for protection against their bites and flea-borne diseases are necessary. METHODS The essential oils (EOs) of four native medicinal plants, Ziziphora tenuiore, Myrtus communis, Achillea wilhelmsii and Mentha piperita were isolated by hydrodistillation technique and analyzed by GC-MC. The repellent activit...

The relative importance of the Pleistocene glacial cycles in driving avian speciation remains controversial, partly because species limits in many groups remain poorly understood, and because current taxonomic designations are often based on phenotypic characteristics of uncertain phylogenetic significance. We use mtDNA sequence data to examine patterns of genetic variation, sequence divergence...
