The concentrations of caffeic acid derivatives within Lamiaceae and Echinacea (herb, spice, tea, and dietary supplement forms) readily available in the US marketplace (n = 72) were determined. After the first identification of chicoric acid in Ocimum basilicum (basil), the extent to which chicoric acid could be found within the family Lamiaceae was investigated. The dominant phenolic acid in al...

Quantitative and qualitative data are presented for 44 collections representing 42 species in 27 genera. Lamiaceae basically have: vessels with simple perforation plates; vessel-to-vessel pitting alternate; imperforate tracheary elements alllibriform fibers, fibers commonly septate; axial parenchyma scanty vasicentric; rays Heterogeneous Type liB. These features ally Lamiaceae closely with Verb...

Lamiaceae, the sixth largest angiosperm family, contains more than 7000 species distributed all over the world. However, although considerable progress has been made in the last two decades, its phylogenetic backbone has never been well resolved. In the present study, a large-scale phylogenetic reconstruction of Lamiaceae using chloroplast sequences was carried out with the most comprehensive s...

the production and proper utilization of medicinal plants in natural habitats need to review and identify the natural conditions and climate of the habitat of these plants and separating them from harmful and poisonous plants. the current study was aimed to introduce and determine the distribution of medicinal plants from lamiaceae family in mazandaran province as well as the introduction of na...

This study of the New World Verbenoideae concerned evolutionary relationships of genera within the Verbenaceae (subfamily Verbenoideae) based on nuclear ribosomal Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) DNA sequences. The placement of many Verbenacean genera into families have been problematic with many traditional genera being segregated recently into the Lamiaceae. This study included only taxa of ...

Plants of the Lamiaceae family are important ornamental, medicinal, and aromatic plants, many of which produce essential oils that are used in traditional and modern medicine, and in the food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industry. Various species of the genera Hyssopus, Leonurus, Mentha, Nepeta, Origanum, Perovskia, Phlomis, Salvia, Scutellaria, and Ziziphora are widespread throughout the wor...

A newly recorded family, Phrymaceae, and species, Phryma leptostachya L., from Taiwan are described and illustrated. Phryma leptostachya was found near Chienshih Hsiang, in Hsinchu Hsien. The flowers of Phryma have unusually long hooked tips on the calyx and single-seeded fruit enclosed by the persistent calyx, which accounts for its isolated taxonomic position and recognition as an independent...

From the aerial parts of the endemic species Thymus numidicus Poiret locally which is known as “zaatar”, belongs to the Lamiaceae family five flavonoids were isolated using chromatographic techniques and identified by spectral analysis (UV-Visible, MS, H and CNMR) and chromatographic behaviours.

Marrubium vulgare L. is a spont aneous plant of great medicinal value due to the presence secondary metabolites. Our work aims study physicochemical and phytochemical profile this species. The results analyzes showed that has sug ar content 5.91%, lipid 4.12%, total fiber o f 6.42%, water 42. 42%, an ash 17.76%, solids 2.5 degrees Brix, electrical conductivity 4.06 mS/cm 2 pH 4.8.
