One, comprising S. officinalis and similar species, usually cultivated, covers the oriental distribution of this genus in the Mediterranean region. The other is made up of the occi­ dental sage group S. lavandulifolia and other closely related wild species (sometimes cultivated). The lack of consensus among taxonomists regarding the correct traits and their value in accurate species identification has resulted in a misidentifi­ cation of the raw materials used in the marketing of sage­ based products [21]. With the aim of understanding the importance of sages in Valencian folk medicine, an ethnobotanical study was per­ formed. As part of that study, data from seven wild and culti­ vated sages of the Valencia region, often referred to as coarse sages, were compiled: S. blancoana Webb & Heldr. subsp. mariolensis Figuerola, S. lavandulifolia Vahl subsp. lavandulifo- lia, S. microphylla Kuntz, S. officinalis L., S. sclarea L., S. ver- Fig. 1.

  • Checklist of the Vascular Alien Flora of Catalonia (Northeastern Iberian Peninsula, Spain) Pere Aymerich1 & Llorenç Sáez2,3
    BOTANICAL CHECKLISTS Mediterranean Botany ISSNe 2603-9109 https://dx.doi.org/10.5209/mbot.63608 Checklist of the vascular alien flora of Catalonia (northeastern Iberian Peninsula, Spain) Pere Aymerich1 & Llorenç Sáez2,3 Received: 7 March 2019 / Accepted: 28 June 2019 / Published online: 7 November 2019 Abstract. This is an inventory of the vascular alien flora of Catalonia (northeastern Iberian Peninsula, Spain) updated to 2018, representing 1068 alien taxa in total. 554 (52.0%) out of them are casual and 514 (48.0%) are established. 87 taxa (8.1% of the total number and 16.8 % of those established) show an invasive behaviour. The geographic zone with more alien plants is the most anthropogenic maritime area. However, the differences among regions decrease when the degree of naturalization of taxa increases and the number of invaders is very similar in all sectors. Only 26.2% of the taxa are more or less abundant, while the rest are rare or they have vanished. The alien flora is represented by 115 families, 87 out of them include naturalised species. The most diverse genera are Opuntia (20 taxa), Amaranthus (18 taxa) and Solanum (15 taxa). Most of the alien plants have been introduced since the beginning of the twentieth century (70.7%), with a strong increase since 1970 (50.3% of the total number). Almost two thirds of alien taxa have their origin in Euro-Mediterranean area and America, while 24.6% come from other geographical areas. The taxa originated in cultivation represent 9.5%, whereas spontaneous hybrids only 1.2%. From the temporal point of view, the rate of Euro-Mediterranean taxa shows a progressive reduction parallel to an increase of those of other origins, which have reached 73.2% of introductions during the last 50 years.

  • Il Genere Salvia: SCHEDE DESCRITTIVE Di 117 Specie, Varietà E Ibridi
    Claudio Cervelli Carmen Del Gaudio Luca Masselli Il genere Salvia: SCHEDE DESCRITTIVE di 117 specie, varietà e ibridi Documentazione della collezione del CRA-FSO di Sanremo EdizioniCRAͲFSO Copyright © Consiglio per la Ricerca e la Sperimentazione in Agricoltura (CRA) Roma 2011 ISBN 978-88-97081-10-4 Edizioni CRA-FSO Unità di Ricerca per la Floricoltura e le Specie Ornamentali Corso Inglesi 508 – 18038 Sanremo Tel.: 0184 69481 Fax: 0184 694856 e-mail: [email protected] Web: www.istflori.it Pubblicato il 20 settembre 2011 Il genere Salvia Nell’ambito delle Lamiaceae il genere Salvia viene incluso nella sottofamiglia Nepetoideae (Dumort.) Luerss. (1882), tribù delle Mentheae Dumort (1827), sottotribù delle Salviinae (Dumort.) Endl. (1838). Sono state classificate sinora più di 900 specie di Salvia (ciò ne fa il più numeroso nell’ambito della Lamiaceae), a cui si aggiungono decine di ibridi (di origine naturale o non) e centinaia di cultivars. Le caratteristiche distintive del genere Salvia rispetto agli altri generi delle Lamiaceae risiedono nell’androceo, la parte maschile degli organi sessuali, dove si ha la riduzione a 2 del numero degli stami (rispetto ai 4 tipici della famiglia), la trasformazione dei due stami fertili in strutture a bilancere e la riduzione a 1 sola teca fertile per stame; tali modifiche sono adattamenti evolutivi all’impollinazione incrociata, causata in genere da insetti, ma in America anche da piccoli uccelli. Il genere Salvia è presente allo stato spontaneo in tutti i continenti eccetto l’Australia (in cui si trovano alcune specie naturalizzate), con diffusione nelle regioni temperate e tropicali dei due emisferi ed escursione altitudinale dal livello del mare a oltre 3400 m.

Essential oils are mainly characterized by monoterpene hydrocarbons (39.32–40.70%) and oxygenated monoterpenes (36.08-39.47%). The 1,8-cineole, α-pinene, camphor, and trans-caryophyllene are the most representative compounds. S. rosmarinus essential oils were investigated for their antioxidant activity by using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,20-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), ferric reducing ability power (FRAP), and β-carotene bleaching tests. Additionally, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibitory activity assays were used to screen the neuroprotective effects of S. rosmarinus. R2 showed the highest antioxidant potential as confirmed by relative antioxidant capacity index (RACI) and exhibited a selective activity against AChE (half maximal inhibitory concentration, IC50, value of 41.86 µg/mL).
