Antioxidant Properties of Mesembryanthemum Crystallinum and Carpobrotus Edulis Extracts
Asian Journal of Chemistry Vol. 21, No. 1 (2009), 549-559 Antioxidant Properties of Mesembryanthemum crystallinum and Carpobrotus edulis Extracts I. BOUFTIRA*†, C. ABDELLY† and S. SFAR Laboratory of Galenic Pharmacy, Faculty of Pharmacy of Monastir Rue Ibn Sina 5000 Monastir, Tunisia Fax: (216)73461830; Tel: (216)73461000; E-mail: [email protected] Extraction efficiency using different solvents on antioxi- dant capacities of Mesembryanthemum crystallinum and Carpobrotus edulis was measured. The dried extracts were screened for their radical scavenging activity using α,α-diphenyl- β-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method. The order of antioxidant capacity of M. crystallinum in different solvents was found to be petroleum ether > ethyl acetate > chloroform > methanol > flavonoids and water. The order of antioxidant capacity of C. edulis was found to be flavonoids > methanol > chloroform > water and petroleum ether. Petroleum ether and flavonoids extracts from M. crystallinum and C. edulis showed highest antioxidant activity at 500 µg/mL. Results of the present study may be due to the extent of antioxidant capacity of each extract is in accordance with the amount of chrolophylls, carotenoids, phenolics and others different antioxidant compounds that can be presents in the extracts. Key Words: Antioxidant activity, DPPH, Aizoacea, Extra- ction methods, Flavonoids. INTRODUCTION Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in the organism's vital activities including phagocytosis, regulation of cell proliferation, intracell- ular signalling and synthesis of biologically active compounds and ATP1. With an insufficiency of the antioxidant protective system or under an intense influence of radical-initiating factors (ionizing radiation, hard ultraviolet radiation, xenobiotics, mineral dust), ROS are overproduced and oxidative stress develops. -

Draft Vegetation Communities of San Diego County
DRAFT VEGETATION COMMUNITIES OF SAN DIEGO COUNTY Based on “Preliminary Descriptions of the Terrestrial Natural Communities of California” prepared by Robert F. Holland, Ph.D. for State of California, The Resources Agency, Department of Fish and Game (October 1986) Codes revised by Thomas Oberbauer (February 1996) Revised and expanded by Meghan Kelly (August 2006) Further revised and reorganized by Jeremy Buegge (March 2008) March 2008 Suggested citation: Oberbauer, Thomas, Meghan Kelly, and Jeremy Buegge. March 2008. Draft Vegetation Communities of San Diego County. Based on “Preliminary Descriptions of the Terrestrial Natural Communities of California”, Robert F. Holland, Ph.D., October 1986. March 2008 Draft Vegetation Communities of San Diego County Introduction San Diego’s vegetation communities owe their diversity to the wide range of soil and climatic conditions found in the County. The County encompasses desert, mountainous and coastal conditions over a wide range of elevation, precipitation and temperature changes. These conditions provide niches for endemic species and a wide range of vegetation communities. San Diego County is home to over 200 plant and animal species that are federally listed as rare, endangered, or threatened. The preservation of this diversity of species and habitats is important for the health of ecosystem functions, and their economic and intrinsic values. In order to effectively classify the wide variety of vegetation communities found here, the framework developed by Robert Holland in 1986 has been added to and customized for San Diego County. To supplement the original Holland Code, additions were made by Thomas Oberbauer in 1996 to account for unique habitats found in San Diego and to account for artificial habitat features (i.e., 10,000 series). -

Morphology of the Invasive Carpobrotus (Aizoaceae) in Europe: Malta As a Case Study Stephen Mifsud1
ARTICLES Mediterranean Botany ISSNe 2603-9109 https://doi.org/10.5209/mbot.71195 Morphology of the invasive Carpobrotus (Aizoaceae) in Europe: Malta as a case study Stephen Mifsud1 Received: 25 August 2020 / Accepted: 11 November 2020 / Published online: 8 March 2021 Abstract. Since the late 19th century, different taxonomic views have been reported for Carpobrotus species occurring in the Maltese Islands, where the latest treatments imply two varieties of C. edulis and the doubtful occurrence of C. acinaciformis. Taxonomic inconsistencies are possibly derived from the poor understanding or misinterpretation of morphological characters. Moreover, the hybridogenous morphotypes resulting from horticultural advances make the determination of Carpobrotus even harder, especially with the application of outdated identification keys which do not take hybrids into account. The difficulty in determiningCarpobrotus spp. has been expressed in several recent accounts within the Mediterranean region. A taxonomic investigation was carried out by applying eleven morphological characters adopted from recent monographs on 25 populations present in Malta. Three taxonomic units have been retrieved from the analyzed sample, where C. acinaciformis s.l. has been confirmed to represent all the purple-flowering populations and C. edulis s.s. for the yellow-flowering ones. In this account, emphasis was given on the interpretation and understanding of distinctive morphological characters by employing a standardized method of assessment aided by images. This comparative morphological study resulted in a new characteristic in the leaves of C. edulis, by which it could be easily distinguished from C. acinaciformis in the vegetative state. A detailed discussion about the two different morphotypes of C. acinaciformis s.l. -
Chorizanthe Howellii (Howell's Spineflower)
Chorizanthe howellii (Howell’s spineflower) 5-Year Review: Summary and Evaluation Chorizanthe howellii: MacKerricher State Park, California Photograph utilized courtesy Peter Warner, Fort Bragg, California U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Arcata Fish and Wildlife Office Arcata, California December 2011 5-YEAR REVIEW Chorizanthe howellii (Howell’s spineflower) I. GENERAL INFORMATION Purpose of 5-Year Reviews: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) is required by section 4(c)(2) of the Endangered Species Act to conduct a status review of each listed species at least once every 5 years. The purpose of a 5-year review is to evaluate whether or not the species’ status has changed since it was listed (or since the most recent 5-year review). Based on the 5-year review, we recommend whether the species should be removed from the list of endangered and threatened species, be changed in status from endangered to threatened, or be changed in status from threatened to endangered. Our original listing of a species as endangered or threatened is based on the existence of threats attributable to one or more of the five threat factors described in section 4(a)(1) of the Endangered Species Act, and we must consider these same five factors in any subsequent consideration of reclassification or delisting of a species. In the 5-year review, we consider the best available scientific and commercial data on the species, and focus on new information available since the species was listed or last reviewed. If we recommend a change in listing status based on the results of the 5-year review, we must propose to do so through a separate rule-making process defined in the Endangered Species Act that includes public review and comment. -

INVASIVE EXOTIC PLANTS Adopted September 1996
POLICY ON INVASIVE EXOTIC PLANTS Adopted September 1996 Definitions: Native plant: any plant which a member of a species which was present at a given site prior to European contact. Exotic plant: a plant which does not meet this definition of native. Invasive exotic plant: A plant which is able to proliferate and aggressively alter or displace indigenous biological communities. The California Native Plant Society · urges all government agencies, non-govern mental organizations, and individuals charged with land management to: · adopt and implement Invasive exotic plant management policies. · coordinate with each other at all levels regarding non-native plant policy formulation and implementation. · publicize the need to prevent the spread of invasive exotic plants. · stop all introductions of invasive non-native plant species into natural ecosystems which are designed to achieve some other management objective. · implement exotic plant control measures in such a manner that native species and natural systems are not adversely impacted. · adequately fund the control of invasive exotic species. · insists that all landscaping, mitigation, restoration, revegetation, and habitat/species recovery monitoring plans include provision for identifying and managing non-native plants and identifying no potential for damaging the genetic structure of local native plant communities. · advocates cooperative efforts to restrict introductions of invasive exotic species from commercial sources, including the agricultural, landscaping, and revegetation industries. · supports inclusion of information regarding the effects of invasion by exotic plants in environmental or outdoor education programs in schools. · encourages CNPS chapters to work for adoption and implementation of invasive exotic policies and programs at municipal and county levels and to raise local awareness regarding the problem. -
