Tunceli garlic was identified as a subspecies of A. macrochaetum Boiss. et Hausskn., however, following studies identified it as a different species, and it was named as A. tuncelianum. Because its chemical structure is similar to cultivated garlic (A. sativum), it is collected from the mountains, and sold/ used as a commercial product with the name “Rock Garlic” by local people. The plant is important in terms of being endemic and placed in the group of Vulnerable Plants in Red Data Book of Turkish Plants. In the present study, organosulfur compounds, categorized in volatile fatty acids, of the plant, Allium tuncelianum were extracted with solid phase micro extraction (SPME/PDMS) method and analyzed with Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy device. As a result of the analysis, diallyl disulphide compound was determined to be major compound at the rate of %50.51. Later on, cytotoxic activity of plant extracts was determined on HeLa cells originating from human cervical carcinoma and it was found that 72 h, 0,5 mg/ml concentration led 30 percent of the cells to apoptosis. It is clearly advantageous to rehabilitate Allium tuncelianum plant by cultivating it, increase its production, and making the plant consumed on a global basis rather than its limited consumption by local people, as an alternative to Allium sativum (cultivated garlic) which has been consumed traditionally over centuries.

On the other hand, cloves are formed instead of flowers on the tip of pedicels. The flora of Turkey contains 12.054 species (Guner, Forming of cloves during blooming is pointed as the 2000; Ozhatay, 1994, 1999, 2006, 2009, 2008). reason why garlic is sterile (Koul, 1970). Therefore, Turkey shows a continent diversity in Many endemic plants are gathered from their natural terms of plant variety. Also 32.56% (3.925) of these habitat excessively. Due to senseless and excessive taxa are endemic to Turkey. The greatness of this gathering most of these plants are facing extinction. value can be seen clearer considering even the richest Allium tuncelianum was listed among the endangered country in Europe in terms of endemic plants, Greece, plants in Red Book of Plants of Turkey (Ekim, 2000). has between 800-1000 endemic plant species (Ekim, Taste of fresh garlic’s characteristics are associated 2000). Having such high ratio of endemism in Turkey with thiosulfinates and compounds that form leads to an increased interest from scientists who enzymatically from odorless substances (Cavallito, study endemic plants. 1944; Stoll, 2006; Lancaster, 1988; Iberl, 1990; Han, Allium L. genus, contains 700 biennial and perennial 1995; Ferary, 1996; Calvey, 1997; Keusgen, 2002). species which live in temperate zones of the northern Primary substance responsible for garlic’s taste is hemisphere (Konemann, 1999). There are 164 Allium allicin (2-Propene-1-sulfinothioic acid S-2-propenyl taxa in Turkey, of which 65 are indigenous to Turkey, ester). The enzyme alliinase converts alliin ((S)-3-(2- thus are endemic (Davis, 1984, 1998; Guner, 2000). Propenylsulfinyl)-L-alanine) to allicin. Allicin is an A. tuncelianum is originally named as A. unstable compound and breaks down to sulfites macrochaetum Boiss. and Haussk. subsp. which are secondary substances that give garlic it’s tuncelianum Kollman (Etoh, 2002). Although it is characteristic taste and odor (Stoll, 1951; Lancaster, indigenous to Tunceli district and especially the 1988; Iberl, 1990; Ferary, 1996; Keusgen, 2002). plateaus of Munzur Mountains in Ovacik, A.

Around cysteine peptides and some other sulfur compounds. these regions, it is named “Garlic of Tunceli” or Some of these aren’t found in garlic naturally. They “Garlic of Ovacik” because of its similarity to form while crushing, cutting and chopping garlic. It is common garlic.

New Year and new gardening season comes and my new catalogue goes to you. It is a little shorter than usually - not for shortage of items includable (with pain in heart I striped out many names) but this summer I want to rebuild my bulb shed and it will limit my possibilities to harvest bulbs and to work with them. Last summer was very busy year. I rebuilt one of my greenhouses - it was very nervous process due shortage of workers (three teams were changed), I was forced to dig out all bulbs, to change soil - but now working in it is much more comfortable. I and my wife Guna organized for the first time “Open door days” and we had 18 visitors from Britain, arranged programm including lectures, visits of gardens, museum, nature, Opera etc. All visitors were very satisfied with visit. Sorry, this season we can’t to arrange OPEN DOOR DAYS due my lecture tour in North America and expedition plans. But I’m planning repeat such days in future, too. Last season Mrs. Kristl Walek from Canada (Gardens North – Seeds from the world) in her catalogue revealed the fact that I had been bearing in my mind an idea about a book on bulbs and my experience with them.

Pharm. 2020, 11 (12) INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH JOURNAL OF PHARMACY www.irjponline.com ISSN 2230 – 8407 Review Article ANTIMICROBIAL ACTIVITY TEST OF GENUS ALLIUM: A REVIEW Fadhilah Arifa, Anzharni Fajrina*, Aried Eriadi, Ridho Asra School of Pharmaceutical Science (STIFARM) Padang, Indonesia *Corresponding Author Email: [email protected] Article Received on: 4/12/20 Approved for publication: 31/12/20 DOI: 10.7897/2230-8407.1112102 ABSTRACT The genus Allium plants are often used by people as a food flavoring. These plants are also used for medicinal purposes. The genus Allium plants are known to inhibit the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites by having the Allicin, Ajoene main compounds, and secondary metabolites. This review article describes plants from the genus Allium that have antimicrobial potential. In the writing process, this review article used literature study techniques by finding literature in the form of official books, national journals, and international journals in the last 10 years (2010-2020). The literature search in writing this review article was conducted through online media search with keywords as follows: antimicrobial, Allium, and inhibition zone diameter. The search for the main references in this review article was done through Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, Reserachgate, and other published journals. Some plants of the genus Allium such as Allium ascalonicum, Allium cepa, Allium chinense, Allium porrum, Allium roseum, Allium sativum, Allium staticiforme, Allium subhirsutum, Allium tuberosum, Allium tuncelianum, and Allium wallichii showed antimicrobial activity. The potential antimicrobial activity of each part of the plant depends on the solvent used, the concentration and levels of secondary metabolites contained therein.

Received: 9 December 2019; Accepted: 10 January 2020; Published: 13 January 2020 Abstract: Species that belong to the genus Allium have been widely used for human food and traditional medicine. Their beneficial health effects, as well as the specific aroma, are associated with their bioactive chemical compounds, such as sulfur compounds and flavonoids. Gas chromatography and mass spectrometry (GC–MS) and reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (reverse-phase HPLC) were used to identify organosulfur and amino acid content of triploid hybrid onion, Allium cornutum Clement ex Visiani, 1842, and common onion, Allium cepa L.
