Fachtagung für Arznei- und Gewürzpflanzen. Aufgrund der zunehmenden Komplexität pflanzenbaulicher und pflanzenzüchterischer Forschung gewinnt der Wissens- und Technologietransfer von der Grundlagenforschung über die angewandte Forschung in die Praxis immer mehr an Bedeutung. Vielfalt des Ausgangsmaterials, innovative Ideen und Arbeiten sind die Grundlagen für eine effektive und schonende Nutzung der natürlichen Ressourcen. Dies wird im Programm der Tagung sichtbar. Die große Anzahl von Mitveranstaltern garantiert einen hohen Grad an interdisziplinären Blickwinkeln auf die Schwerpunkte der Tagung, die in fünf Themenkreise gegliedert wurden: 1. Pharmazeutische Biologie, Ethnobotanik, Pharmakologie, Phytotherapie, Ernährung, Kosmetik, 2. Biochemie und Analytik sekundärer Pflanzeninhaltstoffe und Kontaminanten, 3. Genetische Ressourcen, Züchtungsforschung und Züchtungsmethodik, Sortenschutz, 4. Phytopathologie, Pflanzenschutz, Inkulturnahme, Anbau, und Ernte, 5. Technologische Themen. Die fachgebietübergreifenden Darstellungen und Diskussionen sind als besonderes Anliegen am Veranstaltungsstandort Berlin in hervorragender Weise realisierbar. Die Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin hat seit ihrer Gründung eine bedeutende landwirtschaftliche und gärtnerische Tradition. Gemeinsam mit anderen Einrichtungen mit exzellenter Forschung und hoch innovativen Arbeitsgruppen gibt es hier ein ungewöhnlich großes Potential, das für den Bereich der Arznei- und Gewürzpflanzen noch besser erschlossen wird. Nach der im Jahr 2008 gemeinsam mit dem Bernburger Winterseminar ausgerichteten Vorgängertagung bietet diese im Abstand von drei bis vier Jahren an unterschiedlichen deutschen Standorten veranstaltete Tagung wiederum ein vielbeachtetes Forum für den wissenschaftlichen Austausch mit Ausstrahlung in viele Europäische Nachbarstaaten. Bereits die Tagungsvorbereitung bedingt interdisziplnäres Arbeiten. Die Vielzahl von Vorträgen und Posterdarstellungen ist Beleg hierfür. Mein Dank gilt allen beteiligten Kollegen und in besonderem Maße dem wissenschaftlichen Komitee für die Begutachtung der Kurzdarstellunge aller Beiträge. Ich danke den Veranstaltern, den Mitveranstaltern und den Sponsoren für die Ausrichtung bzw. Unterstützung der Tagung und die Drucklegung des Bandes mit den Kurzfassungen der Vorträge und Poster. F.

Again, we are coming to you with a new catalogue and again we are including many new varieties in it, probably not so many as we would like, but our stocks do not increase as fast as the demand for our bulbs. We hope for many more novelties in the next catalogue. Last season we had one more successful expedition – we found and collected 3 juno irises never before cultivated (we hope that they will be a good addition to our Iris collection) and many other nice plants, too. In garden we experienced a very difficult season. The spring came very early – in the first decade of April the temperature unexpectedly rose up to +270 C, everything came up, flowered and finished flowering in few days and then during one day the temperature fell as low as –80 C. A lot of foliage was killed by a returned frost. As a result the crop of bulbs was very poor. The weather till the end of June was very dry – no rain at all, only hot days followed by cold nights. But then it started to rain. There were days with the relative air humidity up to 98%. The drying of harvested bulbs was very difficult. I was forced to clean one of my living rooms in my house, to heat it and to place there the boxes with Allium and Tulipa bulbs to save them from Penicillium.

  • AGS-Seed-List-No.62 2013-2014
    WELCOME TO THE ALPINE GARDEN SOCIETY’S 62nd SEED LIST Please read through these notes and also the notes on the back of the order forms before completing the forms. The main distribution will begin in December and will continue through January. Please note that the distribution takes place from Pershore and the office will be closed for the Christmas and New Year holiday. Consequently, no orders will be made up between 20 December 2013 and 6 January 2014. The seeds offered originate from various sources and cannot be guaranteed true to name. Neither The Alpine Garden Society nor any official of the Society can be held responsible for what is supplied. Members are reminded that named cultivars and hybrids cannot be relied upon to come true, and plants raised from seed from cultivars should not be labelled with the names of those cultivars. Seeds of many species are in short supply and we can never have enough to meet all requests. If you request very rare or scarce species you may be disappointed and we advise you to spread your requests throughout a variety of seeds on the list. We do limit the allocation of rare species to try and be as fair as possible to all members, especially to those who donate the rare seed. Surplus seeds are those remaining after all applications for main distribution seeds have been met. Please see the notes on the back of the order form for further information. On-line ordering is the recommended way to order and pay for seed. There are many advantages in ordering this way, in particular a built in link to pictures of the plants on the list.

Received: 7 December 2017; Accepted: 30 January 2018; Published: 2 February 2018 Abstract: Garlic has played an important role in culinary arts and remedies in the traditional medicine throughout human history. Parasitic infections represent a burden in the society of especially poor countries, causing more than 1 billion infections every year and leading to around one million deaths. In this study, we investigated the mode of anti-parasitic activity of “wild garlics” Tulbaghia violacea and Allium ursinum dichloromethane extracts against parasites Trypanosoma brucei brucei and Leishmania tarentolae with regard to their already known antimicrobial activity. We also evaluated their cytotoxic potential against human cells. Both extracts showed a relevant trypanocidal and leishmanicidal activity, although L. tarentolae was less sensitive. We determined that the probable mode of action of both extracts is the irreversible inhibition of the activity of Trypanosoma brucei trypanothione reductase enzyme. The extracts showed a mild cytotoxic activity against human keratinocytes. They also exhibited weak—in most cases comparable—antibacterial and antifungal activity. HPLC-MS/MS analysis showed that both extracts are abundant in sulfur compounds.

    Guidelines for the definition of monitoring areas and the selection of relevant monitoring parameters LIFE08 NAT/IT/000342 ACTION A8 Assessment of local biodiversity Deliverable Date 30/06/2013 DEMETRA 1 LINEE GUIDA PER LA DEFINIZIONE DELLE AREE DI MONITORAGGIO E LA SELEZIONE DI RILEVANTI PARAMETRI DI MONITORAGGIO I dati riguardanti il livello di biodiversità nelle aree di studio del progetto DEMETRA e le principali specie individuate come “sensibili” sono state tenute in considerazione per fornire una guida di monitoraggio alla Regione Toscana. Tale guida potrà essere utilizzata dalla Regione per monitorare gli ambienti sensibili nel caso siano realizzate coltivazioni OGM in Toscana. La guida di monitoraggio è in linea con le direttive della CE e le politiche sugli OGM come descritte nella direttiva EC2001/18 e nelle leggi italiane e della Regione Toscana, nonché con altre direttive in materia di conservazione e protezione ambientale e di tutela del consumatore. Inoltre, la guida di monitoraggio è compatibile con le metodologie e le raccomandazioni dell’EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) (Guidance on the post market environmental monitoring of GMOs, EFSA 2011) e con il monitoraggio ambientale sviluppato da DG SANCO e dalle autorità competenti degli Stati membri. Tale guida si suddivide in due parti, la prima riguarda l’analisi del rischio nelle aree di studio del progetto DEMETRA allargata a tutta l’area del Parco di Migliarino San Rossore e Massaciuccoli. La seconda parte indica come dovrebbe essere condotto il monitoraggio nelle aree considerate a rischio indicando le specie da includere nel monitoraggio ed il periodo in cui questo dovrebbe essere condotto in relazione alla specie GM eventualmente coltivata.

This study aims to assess the abundance and diversity of Cerambycid beetles (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) in different types of habitats (urbanized, natural oak forest, herbaceous and mixed forest) of the Zselic region in Hungary. Beetles were collected by sweep netting and hand collecting. Species richness and diversity were analyzed for the different habitats. Temporal data also contributed to a better knowledge of the flight period and ecology of the captured species and specimens. A total of 69 species were identified during the sampling period (2009–2013). The period of adult flight activity was from the second week of May until the second week of June. Plagionotus arcuatus L., Dorcadion aethiops Scopoli and Strangalia melanura Fabricius were the most abundant species. The most diverse habitat type was mixed forest (Simpson Index= 0.9443; Shannon Index= 1.4373), and the least diverse one was the urbanized environment (Simpson Index= 0.4141; Shannon Index= 0.5111). The differences in diversity might be explained by the heterogeneity of potential host plants available in the different habitats. Correspondence and cluster analyses revealed that different habitats were associated with distinct beetle assemblages.
