STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL DIVERSITY OF PLANT ORGANISMS CONTENT OF SOME NATURAL FRUITS COMPOUNDS OF CHOKEBERRY AND SEA- BUCKTHORN NEW FORMS Calalb1 T., Onica2 E. 1 Public Institution of State Medicine and Pharmacy University ,,Nicolae Testemitanu” 2 Botanical Garden (Institute) of Academy of Sciences of Moldova Summary: The new two forms (1-13 and 3-13) of Hippophäe rhamnoides L. and two (1 and 2) of Aronia melanocarpa (Michx.) Elliot, which were created in the Botanical Garden (Institute) of ASM, the bio-morphological and chemical characters of plants and fruits by following qualitative and quantitative analyses of ascorbic acid- titrimetric, fl avonoids- spectrophotometric, tannins- titrimetric methods were analyzed. The new forms of sea-buckthorn and of chokeberry can serve as a good source of ascorbic acid, also of fl avonoids and tannins, respectively. Key words: fruits, biochemistry, fl avonoids, ascorbinic acid. INTRODUCTION A. melanocarpa fruits, thanks to the polyphenolic component in vitamins, organic acids, minerals and carbohydrates are considered as a valuable source of biological active substances (BAV), possessing pharmaceutical and therapeutic properties: vasoprotective, hypotensive, antioxidant, antimutagenic, chemopreventive, gastroprotective, antiviral, hypoglycaemic, anti-infl ammatory, and antimicrobial [2, 4]. Nowadays, chokeberry fruits are recognized on the world market as a quality and antioxidant product, which supplement daily food ration necessary to strengthen the health, being called super-fruits [2]. H. rhamnoides fruits are rich in fatty acids (palmitic (C16:0), palmitoleic (C16:1), caprylic (C8:0) linoleic, oleanolic, ursolic, 19-α-hydroxyursolic, dulcioic, octacosanoic acids), vitamins (A and C), free sugars (sucrose, xylose, glucose and mannitol) [6]. A wide spectrum of pharmacological effects of biological active substances have been recently reported, including antioxidant, immunomodulatory, anti-atherogenic, anti- stress, patoprotective, radioprotective and tissue repair [1]. A. melanocarpa (Michx.) 6 Journal of Botany, Vol. VI, Nr. 2(9), Chisinau, 2014 Elliot is a native plant of North America and, due to decorative and curative qualities of fruits, was grown on large areas

  • Balkan Vegetation
    Plant Formations in the Balkan BioProvince Peter Martin Rhind Balkan Mixed Deciduous Forest These forests vary enormously but usually include a variety of oak species such as Quercus cerris, Q. frainetto, Q. robur and Q. sessiliflora, and other broadleaved species like Acer campestris, Carpinus betulus, Castanea sative, Juglans regia, Ostrya carpinifolia and Tilia tomentosa. Balkan Montane Forest Above about 1000 m beech Fagus sylvatica forests often predominate, but beyond 1500 m up to about 1800 m various conifer communities form the main forest types. However, in some cases conifer and beech communities merge and both reach the tree line. The most important associates of beech include Acer platanoides, Betula verrucosa, Corylus colurna, Picea abies, Pyrus aucuparia and Ulmus scabra, while the shrub layer often consists of Alnus viridis, Euonymous latifolius, Pinus montana and Ruscus hypoglossum. The ground layer is not usually well developed and many of the herbaceous species are of central European distribution including Arabis turrita, Asperula muscosa, Cardamine bulbifera, Limodorum abortivum, Orthilia seconda and Saxifraga rotundifolia. Of the conifer forests, Pinus nigra (black pine) often forms the dominant species particularly in Bulgaria, Serbia and in the Rhodope massif. Associated trees may include Taxus buccata and the endemic Abies bovisii-regis (Macedonian fir), while the shrub layer typically includes Daphne blagayana, Erica carnea and the endemic Bruckenthalia spiculifolia (Ericaceae). In some areas there is a conifer forest above the black pine zone from about 1300 m to 2400 m in which the endemic Pinus heldreichii (Bosnian pine) predominates. It is often rather open possibly as a consequence of repeated fires.

  • Hebelomina (Agaricales) Revisited and Abandoned

Since that time a further five species have been ascribed to the genus and one similar species within the genus Hebeloma. In total, we have studied seventeen collections that have been assigned to these seven species of Hebelomina. We provide a synopsis of the available knowledge on Hebelomina species and Hebelomina-like collections and their taxonomic placement. Methods – Hebelomina-like collections and type collections of Hebelomina species were examined morphologically and molecularly. Ribosomal RNA sequence data were used to clarify the taxonomic placement of species and collections. Key results – Hebelomina is shown to be polyphyletic and members belong to four different genera (Gymnopilus, Hebeloma, Tubaria and incertae sedis), all members of different families and clades. All but one of the species are pigment-deviant forms of normally brown-spored taxa. The type of the genus had been transferred to Hebeloma, and Vesterholt and co-workers proposed that Hebelomina be given status as a subsection of Hebeloma.

  • Euphorbia Virgata (Leafy Spurge) Predicted Suitable Habitat Modeling
    Euphorbia virgata (Leafy Spurge) Predicted Suitable Habitat Modeling Distribution Status: Present State Rank: SNA Global Rank: GNRTNR Modeling Overview Created by: Braden Burkholder Creation Date: March 26, 2021 Evaluator: Bryce Maxell Evaluation Date: April 14, 2021 Inductive Model Goal: To predict the current distribution and relative suitability of general habitat for Euphorbia virgata at large spatial scales across its presumed current range in Montana. Inductive Model Performance: The model appears to adequately reflect the current distribution and relative suitability of general habitat for Euphorbia virgata at larger spatial scales across its presumed current range in Montana. Evaluation metrics indicate an acceptable model fit and the delineation of habitat suitability classes is well supported by the data. The model is presented as a reference, but more observation records, site-specific data, and/or other environmental layers may be needed to improve performance.

The study area encompasses 5103 ha of forests, where 1186 segments were inventoried, and 71 223 single records about presence of vascular plant species were done. We found 761 taxa (species, subspecies and hybrids), out of which 655 were herbs, 106 woody plants, 156 were endangered species and 177 adventive species. The average area of a segment was 4.3 ha. The mean number of species per segment was 64.42 in a range of 4– 180.

Abstract: Fusarium spp. isolated from diseased Euphorbia spp. in Europe were as- sessed for pathogenicity to North American leafy spurge (Euphorbia esula/virgata. Of the nine strains of Fusarium spp. isolated either from diseased E. stepposa or E. virgata in the Caucasus region of Russia and E. esula/virgata in southern France, respectively, all were pathogenic to leafy spurge. There were significant differences in virulence among strains. Four strains, including the two most virulent, were identified as F. ox- ysporum. Four of the five other strains were identified as F. solani and one was identified as F. proliferatum. Three of the four most virulent strains to leafy were isolated from E. stepposa. The most virulent strain was associ- ated with root damage caused by insect biological control agents, similar to a previous study on domestic strains of Fusarium spp. pathogenic to leafy spurge.
