Iran. Received: 8/Sep/2016 Accepted: 18/Oct/2016 ABSTRACT Background and aims: Infectious diseases are among the most important causes of mortality around the world and according to the WHO report 10.5 million cases of death were happened due to infections. Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most important pathogen that its infections are varied from local infections to life threatening infections.

Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Phenolics and fatty acids of some medicinal plants (Juniperus phoenicea and Arbutus pavarii) growing at Al - Jabal Al - Akhder region (Libya) was carried out on the fruits and leaves. The analysis were applied on selected plants. The data showed high content of phenolic compounds in most of the studied leaves comparing with fruits ones, the higher levels were recorded for the compound of 3,5,Di caffeoly guinic acid in the A.pavarii leaves (0.1325 mg/g). The contents of saturated fatty acids recorded high levels in leaves of J. phoenicea (0.157mg/g), while the low levels were recorded in leaves of A.pavarii (0.079 mg/g), for the mono un saturated fatty acids the high concentrations recorded in leaves of A.pavarii (0.065mg/g), on the other side the low concentration was recorded in leaves of J. phoenicea (0.025mg/g). Whereas fruits of A.pavarii don't contain on mono un-saturated fatty acids. While the high contents of poly un-saturated fatty acids were recorded in fruits of J.

Based on information on their traditional medicinal uses and the literature survey, Juniperus phoenicea L. (Fam: Cupressaceae), Asphodelus aestivus Brot. (Fam: Asphodelaceae), Ruta chalepensis. L (Fam: Rutaceae) and Arbutus pavarii Pampan. (Fam: Ericaceae) have been selected for investigation in the current endeavour. The four plants are well-known Libyan medicinal plants, which have been used in Libyan traditional medicine for the treatment of various human ailments, including both tumours and cancers. The cytotoxic activity of the n-hexane, dichloromethane (DCM) and methanol (MeOH) extracts of these plants were assessed against five human tumour cell lines: urinary bladder cancer [EJ-138], liver hepatocellular carcinoma [HEPG2], lung cancer [A549], breast cancer [MCF7] and prostate cancer [PC3] cell lines. The cytotoxicity at different concentrations of these extracts (0, 0.8, 4, 20, 100 and 500 µg/mL) was evaluated by the MTT assay. The four plants showed notable cytotoxicity against the five aforementioned human tumour cell lines with different selectivity indexes on prostate cancer cells. Accordingly, the cytotoxic effect of various chromatographic fractions from the different extracts of these plants at different concentrations (0, 0.4, 2, 10, 50 and 250 µg/mL) revealed different cytotoxic properties. Twenty-nine compounds were isolated from different fractions of these plants: three bioflavonoids, amentoflavone (25), cupressoflavone (24) and sumaflavone (76); four diterpenes.

  • Botanical Survey of Medicinal Plants
    359 Advances in Environmental Biology, 5(2): 359-370, 2011 ISSN 1995-0756 This is a refereed journal and all articles are professionally screened and reviewed ORIGINAL ARTICLE Initial Assessment of Medicinal Plants Across the Libyan Mediterranean Coast 1Louhaichi, M., 1Salkini, A.K., 2Estita, H.E. and 2Belkhir, S. 1International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) P.O. Box 5466, Aleppo - Syria 2Agricultural Research Center (ARC) - El Baida, P.O. Box 395 - Libya Louhaichi, M., Salkini, A.K., Estita, H.E., and Belkhir, S.; Initial Assessment of Medicinal Plants across the Libyan Mediterranean Coast ABSTRACT The medicinal plants of the Libyan Mediterranean Coast represent an opportunity to reduce rural poverty in the arid and semi-arid ecosystems due to their water use efficiency, low costs of collection and cultivation, high economic returns per unit area, and the creation of new jobs within the value-added activities of processing and marketing. However, major medicinal plants in the region are in danger of extinction due to global climate change, overgrazing, uprooting, and wood cutting. Mitigating this depletion of biodiversity along the Libyan Coast requires: 1) ex-situ conservation of important plant genetic resources in the national genebank; 2) establishment of field genebanks in the two major agro-ecological zones; and 3) conservation of selected specimen in the national herbarium. During the spring and summer of 2009 and 2010 collection missions were conducted along the Libyan Mediterranean coast. The field visits occurred, and surveyed a total of 79 sites across the western and eastern coastal areas of Libya. The collection mission recorded a total of 151 species belonging to 47 families, the most dominant of which were Chenopodiaceae (20 %) followed by Fabaceae (13 %).

  • Erdbeerbäume Jennifer Markwirth & Hilke Steinecke
    Erdbeerbäume Jennifer Markwirth & Hilke Steinecke Abstract Te spherical, red-orange-coloured fruits of the strawberry trees (Arbutus) are reminiscent of strawberries, but are neither taste wise nor anatomically or systematically related with them. In the new and the old world there are a total of 11 Arbutus species, most of which occur in the Mediterranean region and Mexico. Tese are evergreen shrubs and trees with mostly conspicuous red bark that dissolves like scales from the trunk. Te Palmengarten cultivates quite large plants of the american strawberry tree (Arbutus menziesii) and the western strawberry tree (Arbutus unedo). Zusammenfassung Die kugeligen, rot-orange gefärbten Früchte der Erdbeerbäume (Arbutus) erinnern auf den ersten Blick an Erdbeeren, haben aber weder geschmacklich noch anatomisch oder systematisch etwas mit diesen gemein. In der Neuen sowie der Alten Welt gibt es ins- gesamt 11 Arbutus-Arten, die vor allem im Mittelmeerraum und Mexiko vorkommen. Es handelt sich um immergrüne Sträucher und Bäume mit meist aufällig roter Rinde, die sich schuppenartig vom Stamm löst. Im Palmengarten vertreten sind recht große Exemplare des Amerikanischen Erdbeerbaums (Arbutus menziesii) und des Westlichen Erdbeerbaums (Arbutus unedo). 1. Namensherkunft worren.

  • Genome in Arbutus Unedo Chloroplasts
    Balanced Gene Losses, Duplications and Intensive Rearrangements Led to an Unusual Regularly Sized Genome in Arbutus unedo Chloroplasts Fernando Martı´nez-Alberola1, Eva M. del Campo2*, David La´zaro-Gimeno1, Sergio Mezquita- Claramonte1, Arantxa Molins1, Isabel Mateu-Andre´s1, Joan Pedrola-Monfort1, Leonardo M. Casano2, Eva Barreno1 1 ICBIBE, Departamento de Bota´nica, Facultad de Ciencias Biolo´gicas, Universitat de Vale`ncia, Burjassot, Valencia, Spain, 2 Departamento de Ciencias de la Vida, Facultad de Biologı´a, Ciencias Ambientales y Quı´mica, Universidad de Alcala´, Madrid, Spain Abstract Completely sequenced plastomes provide a valuable source of information about the duplication, loss, and transfer events of chloroplast genes and phylogenetic data for resolving relationships among major groups of plants. Moreover, they can also be useful for exploiting chloroplast genetic engineering technology. Ericales account for approximately six per cent of eudicot diversity with 11,545 species from which only three complete plastome sequences are currently available. With the aim of increasing the number of ericalean complete plastome sequences, and to open new perspectives in understanding Mediterranean plant adaptations, a genomic study on the basis of the complete chloroplast genome sequencing of Arbutus unedo and an updated phylogenomic analysis of Asteridae was implemented. The chloroplast genome of A. unedo shows extensive rearrangements but a medium size (150,897 nt) in comparison to most of angiosperms. A number of remarkable distinct features characterize the plastome of A. unedo: five-fold dismissing of the SSC region in relation to most angiosperms; complete loss or pseudogenization of a number of essential genes; duplication of the ndhH-D operon and its location within the two IRs; presence of large tandem repeats located near highly re-arranged regions and pseudogenes.
