Türkiye florasında 224 tanesi endemik olmak üzere toplam 445 türle temsil edilmektedir (Davis, 1970; Aytaç, 2000). Astragalus türlerinin kökleri çok eski yıllardan beri halk arasında terlemeyi önleyici, tonik ve diüretik olarak kullanılagelmektedir. Ayrıca yine şeker hastalığının, nefritin, löseminin ve rahim kanserinin tedavisinde kullanım alanı bulmaktadır (Tang and Eisenbrand, 1992). Anadolu’da, Türkiye’nin Güney- Doğusu’nda Astragalus köklerinin sulu ekstreleri geleneksel olarak lösemiye karşı ve yara iyileştirici olarak kullanılmaktadır (Çaliş et al.,2008; Bedir et al., 2000). Astragalus köklerinin bilinen biyolojik aktif bileşenleri, polisakkaritler ve saponinler olmak üzere iki temel kimyasal bileşik sınıfında toplanmıştır (Tang and Eisenbrand, 1992). Bugüne kadar 400’dan fazla sikloartan yapısında saponin tanımlanmış ve bunların arası yaklaşık 200 Astragalus cinsinden izole edilmiştir (Mamedova and Isaev, 2004; Li-Peng et al., 2013). Sikloartan yapısındaki saponinlerin en zengin kaynağını oluşturan Astragalus (Leguminosea) cinsine ait türler, bu türlerin ekstreleri ve bunlardan izole edilen bileşikler, bağışıklık uyarıcı, karaciğer koruyucu, antioksidan, antiviral, ateş düşürücü, kardiovasküler, iltihap giderici ve anti kanser etkiler göstermeleri nedeniyle giderek artan bir şekilde ilgi odağı haline gelmiştir (Rios and Waterman, 1997; Verotta El-Sebakhy, 2001). VIII Türkiye Astragalus türlerinden biyolojik olarak aktif bileşiklerin izolasyonuna ilişkin devam eden çalışmalarımız kapsamında Astragalus halicacabus Lam.ve Astragalus melanocarpus Bunge. bitkileri çalışılmıştır. Astragalus halicacabus bitkisinden 1 yeni sikloartan-tipi glikozit (halicacoside A, AHa1), 1 yeni maltol glikozit (halicacoside B, AHa2) ile birlikte 7 bilinen sikloartan-tipi glikozit (3-7) ve 1 bilinen maltol glikozit (10) izole edilmiştir. Astragalus melanocarpus bitkisinden 3 yeni saponin ile birlikte 7 bilinen saponin izole edilmiştir.. İzole edilen bu bileşiklerin yapıları, 1D- ve 2D- NMR teknikleri, ESIMS ve HRMS analizleri kullanılarak belirlenmiştir. Anahtar Sözcükler: Leguminosae, Astragalus halicacabus, Astragalus melanocarpus, sikloartan, oleanan, maltol, saponin. IX ABSTRACT ISOLATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF SAPONINS FROM ASTRAGALUS halicacabus AND ASTRAGALUS melanocarpus SPECIES Basile-Jimmy DJIMTOMBAYE Ph.D. Thesis in Chemistry Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Hüseyin ANIL Co-Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Özgen ALANKUŞ ÇALIŞKAN September 2014, 166 pages Astragalus L. (Leguminosae), one of the largest genera of flowering plants with about 3000 species, is represented in the flora of Turkey by 445 species, 224 of which are endemic (Davis, 1970; Aytaç, 2000). The roots of Astragalus species represent a very old and well-known drug in traditional medicine for their usage as an antiperspirant, tonic and diuretic. The have also been used in the treatment of diabetes mellitus, nephritis, leukemia and uterine cancer (Tang and Eisenbrand, 1992). In the district of Anatolia, located in South Eastern Turkey, an aqueous extract of the roots of Astragalus is traditionally used against leukemia and for its wound-healing properties (Çaliş et al.,2008; Bedir et al., 2000). Modern pharmacological studies of Astragalus species indicated the multiple biological activities, such as antioxidative, immunomodulation, cardiovascular, cerebrovascular diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, liver diseases, infectious diseases and antiviral properties, etc (Li-Peng et al., 2013). Known biologically active constituents of Astragalus roots represent two major classes of chemical compounds, polysaccharides and saponins (Tang and Eisenbrand, 1992; Li-Peng et al., 2013). Up to now, more than 400 cycloartane- type saponins were determined and around 200 of them were isolated from Astragalus genus (Mamedova and Isaev, 2004; Li-Peng et al., 2013). X Furthermore, the species of Astragalus genus (Leguminosae) which are the richest source of cycloartane type saponins have attracted increasing interest because of their extract’s and isolated compound’s wide range of biological activities known as anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, antipyretic, immunostimulant and anti cancer (Rios and Waterman, 1997; Verotta El-Sebakhy, 2001) . In our ongoing research for new bioactive compounds from Turkish Astragalus species, we carried out a study on two Astragalus species, namely Astragalus halicacabus.Lam. and Astragalus melanocarpus Bunge. One new cycloartane-type triterpene glycoside (halicacoside A, AHa1) , one new maltol glycosides (halicacoside B, AHa2), were isolated from Astragalus halicacabus along with seven known cycloartane-type glycosides (3-7) and one known maltol glycosides (10). Moreover, three new saponins were isolated from Astragalus melanocarpus along with five known compounds. Their structures were established by the extensive use of 1D and 2D-NMR experiments along with ESIMS and HRMS analysis. Keywords: Leguminosae, Astragalus halicacabus, Astragalus melanocarpus, cycloartane, oleanane, maltol, saponin.

  • Flowering Plants of Sikkim- an Analysis
    FLOWERING PLANTS OF SIKKIM- AN ANALYSIS Paramjit Singh and M. Sanjappa ABSTRACT ikkim is one of the biodiversity rich states of our country. The present paper analyses the flowering plant diversity of the state with some indicative figures of dominant genera like Bulbophyllum, Calanthe, Coelogyne, SCymbidium, Dendrobium, Gentiana, Juncus, Pedicularis, Primula, Rhododendron and Swertia recorded from the region. Nearly 165 species have been named after the state, as they were first collected from the state or plants were known to occur in Sikkim. Some of the representative endemic species of the state have also been listed. One hundred ninety seven families, 1371 genera have been appended with indicative number of species of each genus known to occur in Sikkim. In all more than 4450 species of flowering plants recorded so far. KEYWORDS: Diversity, Dominant genera, Endemics, Families, Flowering Plants, Sikkim Waldheimia glabra in Lhonak, North Sikkim 65 Middle storey of Rhododendron in Conifer forests INTRODUCTION ikkim, the second smallest state of India having an area of around 7096 sq. km is known as the paradise of naturalists. It is a thumb shaped hilly region with Nepal in the west, Bhutan in the east and Tibet in the north and Snorth-east. In the south it is bordered by Darjeeling district of West Bengal. The mountain chains which run southward from the main Himalayan ranges form the natural border of Sikkim; the Chola Range dividing it from Tibet in the north east and Bhutan in the south-east; the Singalila range likewise separating it from Nepal in the west. Mountain passes along these ranges over the years have sustained a two way traffic of traders, pilgrims, and adventurers from Tibet and Central Asia.

  • Crug 2009 Final
    2009 Dan Hinkley writes: “My frequent travelling companions Bleddyn and Sue Wynn Jones … are unparalleled in regards to an astute eye and near maniacal approach to plant exploration. With catholic tastes and yearly sojourns in far- flung places for months at a time, they have created a nursery that offers one of the most sophisticated listings of plants ever brought together.” GARDEN DESIGN (USA) James Alexander-Sinclair writes: “There are some staggeringly beautiful plants in the catalogue that are sold by knowledgeable but totally un-intimidating staff: Sue is so friendly she could not intimidate a marshmallow.” DIARMUID GAVIN ’S GARDEN DESIGN Rae Spencer-Jones writes: “Crug Farm’s cornucopia of exotic plants will make the pulse of any plantsman race .” 25 G REAT NURSERIES , TELEGRAPH We had our best plant sales to date in 2008, hopefully its to do with the ever widening selection that we are offering. Certainly our extension into offering bare-rooted field grown plants has reduced the number of customers we have to disappoint when we are sold out of containerised stocks. This combined with the doubling of our mail order service has more than made up for the slowing down of our on-site sales. But it does leave us in a quandary as to what we should do with our opening hours for on-site sales (some feedback please). As with higher demand for our plants we require more time to process the plants. We would like to take the opportunity to thank all of our calling and mail-order customers for your support throughout 2008.

    Yunnan China’s Land of the Blue Poppy A Greentours Trip Report 7th – 25th June 2011 Led by Chris Gardner Days 1 & 2 7th & 8th June To Lijiang I’d flown in the day before to Kunming and met the group and Yvonne who’d also arrived earlier at arrivals at Kunming Airport. We checked in for our short hop to Lijiang (that saved a long, long drive) and met our ground team there before driving on to the hotel in Shuhe a town outside Lijiang, built as a facsimile of the old town area of the latter, but offering much the same with less hassle getting to and from. The first of many tasty Chinese dinners followed. Day 3 9th June Yulong Shan Flower packed was the only way to describe our first day in the field. We entered the extensive Yulong Shan National Park and drove into the limestone foothills through tracts of pine and scrub oak full of creamy-yellow or purple Roscoea cautleyoides, golden trumpets of Hemerocallis forrestii, white Anemone demissa and bright yellow Stellera chamaejasme. Our first stop among the trees produced non-stop flora with our first colony of pale yellow Cypripedium flavum among which grew the architectural Paris polyphylla and there were the pink drumsticks of Androsace spinulifera, lilac spikes of Veronica pyrolifolia, little Iris collettii, the purple and white striped spathes of Arisaema echinoides and delicate pale green Musk Orchids Herminium ophioglossum. Crossbills called from the pines and descending into a nearby shallow gorge a Red-billed Blue Magpie flew over. Down here there were stony areas with much Paeonia delavayi including some in flower.
