Goji berry (Lycium barbarum), as a Chinese traditional herb and food supplement, contains many nutrients and phytochemicals, such as polysaccharides, scopoletin, the glucosylated precursor, amino acids, flaconoids, carotenoids, vitamins and minerals. It has positive effects on anitcancer, antioxidant activities, retinal function preservation, anti-diabetes, immune function and anti-fatigue. Widely used in traditional Chinese medicine, Goji berries can be sold as a dietary supplement or classified as nutraceutical food due to their long and safe traditional use. Modern Goji pharmacological actions improve function and enhance the body ,s ability to adapt to a variety of noxious stimuli; it significantly inhibits the generation and spread of cancer cells and can improve eyesight and increase reserves of muscle and liver glycogens which may increase human energy and has anti-fatigue effect. Goji berries may improve brain function and enhance learning and memory. It may boost the body ,s adaptive defences, and significantly reduce the levels of serum cholesterol and triglyceride, it may help weight loss and obesity and treats chronic hepatitis and cirrhosis. At Mohamad Hesam Shahrajabian1,2, Wenli present, they are considered functional food with many beneficial effects, which is Sun1,2 and Qi Cheng1,2* why they have become more popular recently, especially in Europe, North America and Australia, as they are considered as superfood with highly nutritive and 1 Biotechnology Research Institute, antioxidant properties.

  • Vascular Flora of West Clear Creek Wilderness, Coconino and Yavapai
    VASCULAR FLORA OF WEST CLEAR CREEK WILDERNESS, COCONINO AND YAVAPAI COUNTIES, ARIZONA By Wendy C. McBride A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Biology Northern Arizona University May 2016 Approved: Tina J. Ayers, Ph.D., Chair Randall W. Scott, Ph.D. Liza M. Holeski, Ph.D. ABSTRACT VASCULAR FLORA OF WEST CLEAR CREEK WILDERNESS, COCONINO AND YAVAPAI COUNTIES, ARIZONA WENDY C. MCBRIDE West Clear Creek Wilderness bisects the Mogollon Rim in Arizona, and is nested between the Colorado Plateau and Basin and Range physiographic provinces. Between 2013 and 2016, a floristic inventory vouchered 542 taxa and reviewed 428 previous collections to produce a total plant inventory of 594 taxa from 93 families and 332 genera. The most species rich families Were Asteraceae, Poaceae, Fabaceae, Brassicaceae, Rosaceae, Plantaginaceae, Cyperaceae, and Polygonaceae. Carex, Erigeron, Bromus, Muhlenbergia, and Oenothera Were the most represented genera. Nonnative taxa accounted for seven percent of the total flora. Stachys albens was vouchered as a new state record for Arizona. New county records include Graptopetalum rusbyi (Coconino), Pseudognaphalium pringlei (Coconino), Phaseolus pedicellatus var. grayanus (Coconino), and Quercus rugosa (Coconino and Yavapai). This study quantified and contrasted native species diversity in canyon versus non- canyon floras across the Southwest. Analyses based on eighteen floras indicate that those centered about a major canyon feature shoW greater diversity than non-canyon floras. Regression models revealed that presence of a canyon Was a better predictor of similarity between floras than was the distance betWeen them. This study documents the remarkable diversity found Within canyon systems and the critical, yet varied, habitat they provide in the southwestern U.S.

  • Potato Psyllid in the Pacific Northwest: a Worrisome Marriage?

[email protected]; 509-760-4859 www.nwpotatoresearch.com Volume XVI, Number 14 October 6, 2016 Matrimony vine and potato psyllid in the Pacific Northwest: a worrisome marriage? David R. Horton, Jenita Thinakaran, W. Rodney Cooper, Joseph E. Munyaneza USDA-ARS Carrie H. Wohleb, Timothy D. Waters, William E. Snyder, Zhen “Daisy” Fu, David W. Crowder Washington State University Andrew S. Jensen Northwest Potato Research Consortium Until the 2011 growing season, potato psyllid was considered to be primarily or strictly a problem in regions outside of Washington, Idaho, and Oregon. This bit of complacency is fairly understandable. Despite a history of psyllid outbreaks in North America known from at least the late 1800s, no wide-scale damage had been seen in regions of the Pacific Northwest, outside of some hotspots in southeast Idaho (Fig. 1). Indeed, the accepted wisdom in the 1900s was that potato psyllid was unable to overwinter in northern latitudes, and that outbreaks extending into Montana and similar latitudes were due to dispersal by psyllids northwards from winter and spring habitats in the southern U.S. and northern Mexico (Fig. 1). The perception that potato psyllid was not a concern in the Pacific Northwest was shattered in 2011, when an outbreak of zebra chip disease caused substantial economic damage in all three states. Five years later, we still do not know what conditions led to that outbreak. The most important question was and continues to be: what are the sources of potato psyllids that colonize potato fields in late May and early June? Not Figure 1.

  • Native Plants for Habitat at Home
    Native Plants for Habitat at Home You can make a difference! Native plants provide the resources and habitat structure birds are looking for. They provide food, shelter and nesting opportunities. Thorny Desert Trees Whitethorn acacia, Acacia constricta Shrubby tree generally 10’–15’ tall; found between 1500’-5000’ elevation. Deciduous; Bloom May– Aug/Sept. Very cold hardy, tough when established, can handle full sun and poor soils. Harbors insects and produces seeds that draw verdins, doves, sparrows, finches, pyrrhuloxias and other birds. Verdins may nest in them. Hosts desert mistletoe, so can be important to phainopeplas. Larval plant for some butterflies. Good shelter for birds. Catclaw acacia, Acacia greggii Shrubby tree rarely to 20’ tall on floodplains. Likes sun, can be lanky in mesquite forests. Locally native in Tucson and Green Valley areas; found up to 5000’ elevation. Long-lived; semi-deciduous in winter and extreme drought. Catchy catclaw thorns—good for out-of-the-way places. Blooms Apr–Oct.with many small flowers clustered on catkins. Seeds attract doves, verdins, sparrows, pyrrhuloxias, quail. Blooms Figure 1: Catclaw acacia attract butterflies and other beneficial insects. Ironwood, Olneya tesota Tree to 26’-30' found below 2500’ in upland areas. Long lived; Bloom May–June; Seed June-July; Avoid in low-lying areas where cold air settles, but seems to do well in most Tucson neighborhoods; Seeds eaten raw, parched, steamed, ground; wood used for tools, tool handles; Seeds: mammals, game birds; Nesting: cactus wren. Flowers: hummingbirds, bumble bees, carpenter bees, honeybees. Host for desert mistletoe. Browse for bighorn sheep, mule deer; Figure 2: Ironwood Insects on plant eaten by birds.
