Musah Department of Chemistry, State University of New York at Albany, 1400 Washington Ave, Albany, NY, 12222, USA ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Plants that produce atropine and scopolamine fall under several genera within the nightshade family. Both Hierarchical classification atropine and scopolamine are used clinically, but they are also important in a forensics context because they are Psychoactive plants abused recreationally for their psychoactive properties. The accurate species attribution of these plants, which Seed species identifiction are related taxonomically, and which all contain the same characteristic biomarkers, is a challenging problem in Metabolome profiling both forensics and horticulture, as the plants are not only mind-altering, but are also important in landscaping as Direct analysis in real time-mass spectrometry ornamentals. Ambient ionization mass spectrometry in combination with a hierarchical classification workflow Chemometrics is shown to enable species identification of these plants. The hierarchical classification simplifies the classifi- cation problem to primarily consider the subset of models that account for the hierarchy taxonomy, instead of having it be based on discrimination between species using a single flat classification model. Accordingly, the seeds of 24 nightshade plant species spanning 5 genera (i.e. Atropa, Brugmansia, Datura, Hyocyamus and Mandragora), were analyzed by direct analysis in real time-high resolution mass spectrometry (DART-HRMS) with minimal sample preparation required.

(Solanaceae) is revised for the first time across its entire geographical range. The introduction reviews the extensive mythological and medicinal as well as the taxonomic history of the genus. On morphological and phenological grounds three geographically widely disjunct species can be distinguished: the Mediterranean M. officinarum L., the narrowly local Turkmenian endemic M. turcomanica Mizg. and the Sino-Himalayan M caulescens C.B. Clarke. The generic monophyly of Mandragora L. as traditionally circumscribed is supported by cladistic analysis of morphological data. The ecological and historical phytogeography of the genus is discussed and alternative biogeographical scenarios are evaluated. Finally, a concise taxonomic treatment of the taxa is provided, based on the evidence of the preceeding analyses. INTRODUCTION The long history of mythology and medicinal use of the mandrake combined with the variable morphology and phenology have led to The nightshade family (Solanaceae) is a cosmopolitan but predomi- considerable confusion in the classification of Mandragora.

  • CHAPTER 2 the Golden Age of Medieval Islamic Toxicology
    CHAPTER 22 The Golden Age of Medieval Islamic Toxicology Mozhgan M. Ardestani1, Roja Rahimi1, Mohammad M. Esfahani1, Omar Habbal2 and Mohammad Abdollahi3 1School of Traditional Medicine, Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran 2Sultan Qaboos University, Muscat, Sultanate of Oman 3Faculty of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences Research Center, Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran 2.1 INTRODUCTION Islamic countries in the Middle Ages made early and important contributions to toxicology. This was mainly due to the need of kings and conquerors to prepare poisons and antidotes for fighting enemies and competitors (Mohagheghzadeh et al., 2006). Sudden death was not an uncommon occurrence in royal courts and was often attributed to poisoning (Tschanz, 2013). Many of the Shiite Imams were killed by poisons. One example is Imam Hassan Ibn Ali Ibn Abi Talib (624À70 CE), who died from repeated and chronic poisoning with arsenic and consequent cirrhosis and gastrointestinal bleeding (Nafisi, 1974). The fear of poisoning convinced Umayyed caliphs (661À750 AD) of the need to study poisons, their identity and methods of detection, as well as the prevention and treatment of poisoning. Animal bites, including the bites of dogs, snakes, scorpions and spiders as well as the poison- ous properties of various minerals and plants, such as aconite (Aconitum napellus), mandrake (Mandragora officinarum), and black hellebore (Helleborus niger) were of great interest (Tschanz, 2013). The antiquity of toxicology in Persian and Arabic countries is apparent in searching for the roots of two words: “toxin” and “bezoar.” “Toxin” was derived from the Persian word “taxsa” meaning “poisoned arrow” used in ancient Persia (Davari, 2013).

    Intoduction to Ethnobotany The diversity of plants and plant uses Draft, version November 22, 2018 Shipunov, Alexey (compiler). Introduction to Ethnobotany. The diversity of plant uses. November 22, 2018 version (draft). 358 pp. At the moment, this is based largely on P. Zhukovskij’s “Cultivated plants and their wild relatives” (1950, 1961), and A.C.Zeven & J.M.J. de Wet “Dictionary of cultivated plants and their regions of diversity” (1982). Title page image: Mandragora officinarum (Solanaceae), “female” mandrake, from “Hortus sanitatis” (1491). This work is dedicated to public domain. Contents Cultivated plants and their wild relatives 4 Dictionary of cultivated plants and their regions of diversity 92 Cultivated plants and their wild relatives 4 5 CEREALS AND OTHER STARCH PLANTS Wheat It is pointed out that the wild species of Triticum and rela­ted genera are found in arid areas; the greatest concentration of them is in the Soviet republics of Georgia and Armenia and these are regarded as their centre of origin. A table is given show- ing the geographical distribution of 20 species of Triticum, 3 diploid, 10 tetraploid and 7 hexaploid, six of the species are endemic in Georgia and Armenia: the diploid T. urarthu, the tetraploids T. timopheevi, T. palaeo-colchicum, T. chaldicum and T. carthlicum and the hexaploid T. macha, Transcaucasia is also considered to be the place of origin of T. vulgare. The 20 species are described in turn; they comprise 4 wild species, T. aegilopoides, T. urarthu (2n = 14), T. dicoccoides and T. chaldicum (2n = 28) and 16 cultivated species. A number of synonyms are indicated for most of the species.

  • Traditional Use and Management of Ntfps in Kangchenjunga Landscape: Implications for Conservation and Livelihoods Yadav Uprety1*, Ram C
    Uprety et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2016) 12:19 DOI 10.1186/s13002-016-0089-8 REVIEW Open Access Traditional use and management of NTFPs in Kangchenjunga Landscape: implications for conservation and livelihoods Yadav Uprety1*, Ram C. Poudel2, Janita Gurung3, Nakul Chettri3 and Ram P. Chaudhary1,4 Abstract Non-timber Forest Products (NTFPs), an important provisioning ecosystem services, are recognized for their contribution in rural livelihoods and forest conservation. Effective management through sustainable harvesting and market driven commercialization are two contrasting aspects that are bringing challenges in development of NTFPs sector. Identifying potential species having market value, conducting value chain analyses, and sustainable management of NTFPs need analysis of their use patterns by communities and trends at a regional scale. We analyzed use patterns, trends, and challenges in traditional use and management of NTFPs in the southern slope of Kangchenjunga Landscape, Eastern Himalaya and discussed potential implications for conservation and livelihoods. A total of 739 species of NTFPs used by the local people of Kangchenjunga Landscape were reported in the reviewed literature. Of these, the highest number of NTFPs was documented from India (377 species), followed by Nepal (363) and Bhutan (245). Though the reported species were used for 24 different purposes, medicinal and edible plants were the most frequently used NTFP categories in the landscape. Medicinal plants were used in 27 major ailment categories, with the highest number of species being used for gastro-intestinal disorders. Though the Kangchenjunga Landscape harbors many potential NTFPs, trade of NTFPs was found to be nominal indicating lack of commercialization due to limited market information.

  • Mandragora Officinarum L. (Solanaceae ): a New Record for the Flora of Turkey
    African Journal of Biotechnology Vol. 8 (15), pp. 3560-3564, 4 August, 2009 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/AJB DOI: 10.5897/AJB09.889 ISSN 1684–5315 © 2009 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper Mandragora officinarum L. (Solanaceae ): A new record for the flora of Turkey Hüseyin Fakir¹* and Hasan Özçelik² ¹Süleyman Demirel University, Forest Faculty, Department of Forest Engineering, Isparta, Turkey. ²Süleyman Demirel University, Science-Literature Faculty, Department of Biology, Isparta, Turkey. Accepted 13 July, 2009 Mandragora officinarum L. (Solanaceae ) was collected from western area of the Mediterranean region of Turkey. Mandragora autumnalis Bertol. is widespread in the Mediterranean area at rock slopes, ruins, under Pinus brutia , olive trees and edges of fields in Turkey but M. officinarum L. has not been reported previously. In this study, the detailed morphological characteristics are discussed and compared with the mediterranean M. autumnalis Berthol. Line drawing, diagnostic characters and a distribution map of M. officinarum L. species of Turkey are presented. Key words: Solanaceae , Mandragora , new record, rare species, Turkey. INTRODUCTION Mandragora L. (mandrake) is an old world genus of 1972). It is named by the local people ‘Adam otu’ which means ‘first Solanaceae with only 3 species: M. officinarum L., a prophet’ in Turkish language, because of the human-like thick sto- circum-mediterranean species, M. turcomanica Mizg., a rage roots. Unfortunately, we were not able to obtain information of previous local uses of this old medicinal and mythically important (sub) Irano-Turanian species and M. caulescens C. B. plant. Clarke, a Sino-Himalayan species (Ungricht et al., 1998; Akhani and Ghorbani, 2003).
