This paper describes the capability of remote sensing in the monitoring of rangeland vegetation productivities and dynamics in the foothill areas of Uzbekistan, in order to enhance the sustainable utilization of natural resources. Seasonal productivity, including above-ground biomass, density, coverage, foliar chlorophyll, and carotene content, was measured for the Artemisia diffusa, the domina...

the essential oils of the aerial parts of three different artemisia species (a.scoparia, a. diffusa, a. turanica ) growing wildly in the northeast of iran were analyzed by gc-ms. twenty-two, twenty-six, and thirteen components were identified in the essential oils of these plants, respectively. the major constituents of the oil ofa. scoparia were b-pinene (16.10%), carvacrol (13.81%), limonene ...

BACKGROUND Artemisia diffusa contains a new type of sesquiterpene lactone with an endoperoxide group (Tehranolide). OBJECTIVE Due to the existing similarity between the structures of Tehranolide and Artemisinin, it was hypothesized that Tehranolide would have similar effects as Artemisinin. In this study, the immunotherapeutic effectiveness of Tehranolide was investigated by direct intra-tumo...

Background: Artediffusin is a sesquiterpene lactone with an endoperoxide group which has been isolated from Artemisia diffusa. Artemisia has always been of great botanical and pharmaceutical interest and is useful in traditional medicines for the treatment of a variety of diseases and complaints. The aims of the present study were to evaluate the cytotoxic, mutagenic and anti-mutagenic activiti...

Diffuse knapweed (Centaurea diffusa) is a noxious non-native forb that is currently invading and dominating western North American grasslands. We established a series of fertilization, reverse fertilization, and removal experiments in grasslands east of the Colorado Front Range, USA, to examine the response of C. diffusa and the rest of the grassland community to changes in nutrient availabilit...
