However, a detailed analysis of their biological properties and their associated active compounds is needed to justify their therapeutic use in modern medicine. The aim of the study was to identify and quantify the phenolics present in hydromethanolic extracts of the roots and shoots of the Chinese Salvia species, Salvia bulleyana. The qualitative and quantitative analyses were carried out by ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry detection (UHPLC-PDA-ESI-MS), and high-performance liquid chromatography with photodiode array (HPLC-PDA) detection. The extracts of S. bulleyana were also screened for their antioxidant activity using ferric ion (Fe3+) reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), diammonium 2,20-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) cation (ABTS), superoxide radical anion (O ), and inhibition of lipid peroxidation assays.

  • Salvia Ananas È Una Pianta Erbacea Perenne, Alta Fino a 120- 150 Cm
    FAMIGLIA BOTANICA: Appartiene alla famiglia delle lamiaceae. ETIMOLGIA: Deve il proprio nome al profumo ed alla forma delle sue foglie. DESCRIZIONE: La salvia ananas è una pianta erbacea perenne, alta fino a 120- 150 cm. e larga fino a 90-100 cm., originaria del Messico e del Gautemala, dove vive nelle foreste di pino e di quercia ad un’altitudine di 1800-2700 metri. È una pianta tropicale ma allo stesso tempo semi-rustica e può essere coltivata facilmente anche alle nostre latitudini. Se coltivata in piena terra, con le gelate invernali muore la parte aerea ma proteggendo l’apparato radicale con foglie secche o paglia, rigermoglierà a primavera. In alternativa la salvia ananas SALVIA può essere coltivata in vaso e ritirata in un luogo fresco e luminoso come un garage o una veranda, dove la temperatura non scende sotto i 5°C. ANANAS Esige un’esposizione soleggiata e terreni asciutti e ben drenati in quanto le radici non tollerano l’eccesso di umidità. Le sue foglie sono particolarmente decorative per via della loro forma ovale e appuntita, di color verde chiaro. NOME SCIENTIFICO: Salvia elegans PERIODO DI FIORITURA E DI RACCOLTA: I fiori, tubolari, raccolti in spighe scarlatte molto leggere, sbocciano a fine estate e persistono fino all’autunno inoltrato anche se la raccolta delle foglie può avvenire durante tutto l’anno. Dominio: Eukaryota PROPRIETA’: Regno: Plantae Proprietà antisettiche, antispasmodiche e diuretiche, proprie Divisione: Magnoliophyta della salvia e dei fiori dal colore rosso scarlatto, di questa particolare varietà più comunemente conosciuta come salvia Classe: Magnoliopsida ananas, per l’intenso aroma di ananas che sprigionano le foglie se stropicciate.

Academic Editors: Carmen Formisano, Vincenzo De Feo and Filomena Nazzaro Received: 5 March 2020; Accepted: 27 March 2020; Published: 28 March 2020 Abstract: On the basis of the side effects of detrimental synthetic chemicals, introducing healthy, available, and effective bioagents for pest management is critical. Due to this circumstance, several studies have been conducted that evaluate the pesticidal potency of plant-derived essential oils. This review presents the pesticidal efficiency of essential oils isolated from different genera of the Lamiaceae family including Agastache Gronovius, Hyptis Jacquin, Lavandula L., Lepechinia Willdenow, Mentha L., Melissa L., Ocimum L., Origanum L., Perilla L., Perovskia Kar., Phlomis L., Rosmarinus L., Salvia L., Satureja L., Teucrium L., Thymus L., Zataria Boissier, and Zhumeria Rech. Along with acute toxicity, the sublethal effects were illustrated such as repellency, antifeedant activity, and adverse effects on the protein, lipid, and carbohydrate contents, and on the esterase and glutathione S-transferase enzymes. Chemical profiles of the introduced essential oils and the pesticidal effects of their main components have also been documented including terpenes (hydrocarbon monoterpene, monoterpenoid, hydrocarbon sesquiterpene, and sesquiterpenoid) and aliphatic phenylpropanoid.

  • Plants and Their Pollinators
    Plants and Their Pollinators: CREATING PERFECT PAIRINGS WHEN YOU GARDEN EVELYN PRESLEY, PRESENTER PRINCIPAL, SUSTAINABLE LANDSCAPING EAGLE ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT Topics To Be Discussed What is pollination? Why is pollination important? Who are our pollinators? A definition of Pollinator Syndrome The pollinators for discussion today What plants do each pollinator prefer? Planning How To Plant For Pollinators Image from: www.gardeningknowhow.com Container Gardening for Pollinators What Is Pollination? Pollination is the transfer of pollen grains from the anthers of one flower to the stigmas of the same or another flower. Why Is Pollination Important? Pollination makes it possible for the plant to reproduce. Flowers that are not pollinated do not produce fruits. Self-pollination can produce seeds and fruit. Not unlike human inbreeding, plant inbreeding can create negative traits, along with a tendency to be unable to evolve in the event that the plants’ environment changes. Cross-pollination refers to the movement of pollen between flowers from plant to plant; the resulting melding of genes creates a healthier plant community. Who Are Our Pollinators? Wind; this process is known as anemophily pollination Water; one form of this process is known as hydrophily pollination These two pollinators are abiotic pollinators. Organisms (humans and animals, including insects, both accidentally and intentionally). Entomophilous pollination is insect pollination. Zoophilous pollination is that performed by vertebrates; humans fall into this pollination category. These pollinators are biotic pollinators. Pollinator Syndrome By Definition/Benefits To Plants Plants and pollinators have co-evolved physical characteristics that make them more likely to interact successfully. The plants benefit from attracting a particular type of pollinator to its flower, ensuring that its pollen will be carried to another flower of the same species and hopefully resulting in successful reproduction.
