Unlike other studies that only determined the chemical composition of essential oils depending on their geographic origin, this research investigated effect weather conditions (temperature, precipitation, and insolation) Nepeta nuda L. oil. The collection wild-growing N. was carried out during three successive years, 2019, 2020, 2021 at Rtanj Mountain (Serbia) same date (July 7th). Essential oi...

Nepeta nuda L. (Lamiaceae) is a medicinal plant with wide distribution in Europa and Asia. In Bulgaria, N. also known as “naked (or hairless) catmint”, which likely refers to the naked or sparse short hairy stem leaves. This study aims generate DNA barcodes for precise genetic discrimination determination of phylogenetic position among other species. To achieve this goal, we applied barcoding t...

Nepeta L. is one of the important genus in Lamiaceae family. It includes ca. 300 herbaceous species and mostly grows Eurasia. represented Turkey by 40 taxa these 16 are endemic. commonly utilized traditional medicine local people, primarily as spasmolytic, diuretic, bronchodilator agents. As a consequence studies on taxa, terpenoids flavonoids have been identified most common components. In thi...

We studied the identity and function of the 528-bp gene immediately upstream of Legionella pneumophila F2310 ptsP (enzyme I(Ntr)). This gene, nudA, encoded for a Nudix hydrolase based on the inferred protein sequence. NudA had hydrolytic activity typical of other Nudix hydrolases, such as Escherichia coli YgdP, in that Ap(n)A's, in particular diadenosine pentaphosphate (Ap(5)A), were the prefer...
