    THE CHEMOTAXONOMY, PHYLOGENY AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY OF THE GENUS ERIOCEPHALUS L. (ASTERACEAE) Elizabeth Wanjiku Njenga A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Health Sciences, University of the Witwatersrand, in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree Of Doctor of Philosophy Johannesburg, 2005. i DECLARATION I declare that this thesis is my own work. It is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg. It has not been submitted for any degree or examination at any other university. The abstracts and copies of paper(s) included are part of this work. Signature Date ii DEDICATION To Joy, Shalom and George, my lifetime friends, for their love, courage, strength and prayers that inspired me to face all the challenges… iii ABSTRACT The genus Eriocephalus commonly known as ‘wild rosemary’, ‘Cape snow bush’, or ‘kapokbos’ is a member of the family Asteraceae (tribe Anthemideae). The genus is endemic to southern Africa, with the highest concentration of species in the Western and Northern Cape. The genus comprises 32 species and a total of 42 taxa, which are distributed in South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, and Lesotho. The characters used in species delimitation are purely based on morphological variation in floral and foliar parts and are highly homoplastic due to phenotypic plasticity. In many cases these features are not sufficiently distinctive, as some taxa tend to exhibit dimorphism in some character states such as the presence of opposite and alternate leaves. In some species there is extensive intergrading of the major diagnostic characters leading to uncertainty in species delimitation.

The aerial parts of plants were harvested in august, dried quickly and alcoholic extracts were prepared. Total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), DPPH radical scavenging activity, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) value, and antimicrobial properties were determined using the extracts. TPC showed that Lebanon thyme had higher concentration compared with Romanian thyme (13.78 ± 0.95 mg GAE/g DW and 12.14 ± 0.97 mg GAE/g DW, respectively). DPPH• was calculated as IC50 and the sample results were compared with gallic acid. FRAP results showed similar values 42.71 ± 4.24 µM Fe+2/g DW (Romanian thyme) and 39.55 ± 4.21 µM Fe+2/g DW (Lebanon thyme). The antibacterial activity of summer savory was found to have maximum effect against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 9144. Bioactive compounds, measured as total phenolic content, were in higher concentration in both extracts which also relates to their antioxidant and antibacterial activities.

  • Regional Altitude and Soil Physicochemical Factors Influence the Essential Oil of Thymus Pubescens (Lamiales: Lamiaceae)
    J. BIOL. ENVIRON. SCI., 2016, 10(29), 45-51 Original Research Article Regional Altitude and Soil Physicochemical Factors Influence the Essential Oil of Thymus pubescens (Lamiales: Lamiaceae) Yousef Imani Dizajeyekan, Ahmad Razban Haghighi* and Tohid Ebrahimi Gajoti East-Azerbaijan Research Center for Agriculture & Natural Resources, 5355179854 Tabriz, IRAN Received: 25.04.2016; Accepted: 01.08.2016; Published Online: 19.10.2016 ABSTRACT The aim of this research was to study the effects of regional altitude and soil physicochemical factors on essential oil of Thymus pubescens. To achieve this goal, aerial parts of this species and top 30 cm soil samples of from five regions in East Azarbaijan province of Iran was collected. Oil samples were extracted by hydrodistillation method. Percentage of essential oil with soil pH has a significant positive relation and there is significant negative relation with altitude. Evaluating environmental factors, we found regional altitude and soil pH as the important factors influencing the production of oil. We conclude that ecological factors are important and should be taken into account for cultivation of Thymus pubescens. Keywords: Correlation, Essence, Hydrodistillation, Linear regression, Thymus pubescens INTRODUCTION Thymus pubescens Boiss.&Kotschys ex Celak from Lamiaceae family is perennial herb, semi shrub, often torpid and nearly grass-green form with oval leaves and pink-white flowers (Mozaffarian 1996).Thymus essential oil has diverse applications in medicinal, cosmetic, hygienic, and food industrials.Thyme oil have properties such as antispasm, antifungal, antiseptic,carminative, and spectorant(Jahanara and Haerizadeh 2001). This reagents thymol and carvacrol give the antifungal,antibacterial, and anti-oxidant effects for the oil(Momeni and Shahroki 1998).It has been revealed that altitude has significant positive effect on the quality and quantity of essential oils of Thymus fallax in Lorestan natural habitats (Mohammadian et al.

SALKINI AND STEVEN L. PETERSEN† International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA), Aleppo, Syria †Plant and Animal Sciences Department, Brigham Young University, Provo, UT 84602, USA 1Corresponding author’s e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Rangeland degradation has been widespread and severe throughout the Syrian steppe as a result of both unfavorable environmental conditions and human induced impacts. To explore the effectiveness of management-based strategies on establishing sustainable rangeland development, we compared the response of temporarily removing grazing from rangelands ecosystems to those under a continuous heavy grazing regime. Results indicated that ungrazed sites had both higher biomass production and plant species composition than grazed sites. Ungrazed plots produced more than fourfold herbaceous biomass production than continuously grazed plots (p < 0.001). Extent of plant cover was 20% greater in ungrazed plots than grazed plots (33.5 & 13.5%, respectively). Furthermore areas protected from heavy grazing had over 200% greater species composition. Thus, protection from grazing can increase forage production and species composition, but may not necessarily improve plant species available for livestock utilization. A more balanced grazing management approach is recommended to achieve an optimal condition of biomass production (quantity), vegetation cover, quality and available forage species that contribute to proving livestock grazing conditions.

Essential oils (EOs) derived from leaves and flowers of Thymus serpyllum and Thymus linearis grown in northern India were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. A total of 37 components forming 94.8-98.4% of EO composition were identified. The EOs of both species were rich in thymol, p-cymene and - terpinene. Thymol was higher in the EO of T. linearis (74.6-75.8%) compared to T. serpyllum (51.9-70.1%). The amount of thymol methyl ether, p-cymene, 1-octen-3-ol, camphor and borneol was relatively higher in T. serpyllum EO.

Muell. ex Benth., E. astringens Essential oils Maiden and E. sideroxylon A.Cunn. ex Schauer-. These species were collected from six arboreta of 1,8-cineole Tunisia in January 2008. The essential oil was extracted by hydrodistillation method and estimated the essential oil yield which varies from 1.5±0.1% to 4.0±0.2%. Results of the study revealed that yield of ACP essential oil are not only depends on the Eucalyptus species but also depends on the origin of harvest.
