Available Online: 01st April, 2016 ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate antimicrobial and antifungal activities of crude extracts from leaves and flower of Halimium halimifolium, and compared with those of Cistus salviifolius and Cistus monspeliensis. The tested plants (leaves and flowers) were extracted with ethanol, the activities were screened against three Gram-positive (Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus subtilis and staphylococcus aureus), three Gram-negative bacteria (Salmonella enteric, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli), and two pathogenic fungi (Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger). The efficacy of these extracts was tested against those microorganisms through a disc-diffusion method employing 15 휇L of each sample per paper discs (6 mm in diameter). Comparable results were carried out using Gentamicin and Amphotericin as standard antibiotics. Ethanol extracts of different parts of plant exhibited good activity against all microorganisms tested.

The British Forms of Tuberaria Guttata (L.) Fourreau
THE BRITISH FORMS OF TUBERARIA GUTTATA (L.) FOURREAU By M. C. F. PROCTOR Department of Botany, University of Exeter ABSTRACT An account is given of the variation in British Tuberaria guttata, and of its previous taxonomic treat ment: the taxonomic value of various characters is examined. Most of the Welsh and Irish plants includ ing the type population of Helianthemum breweri Planch. differ from T. guttata as it occurs in the Channel Isles and northern France in their shorter stature, the more common presence of bracts and other characters. All the characters said to distinguish breweri intergrade continuously with those of typical guttata in both herbarium and cultivated material, and are only loosely correlated. The more compact Welsh and Irish plants appear to be comparable with plants in similar exposed coastal habitats in north-west France. It is concluded that T. guttata shows ecotypic differentiation in relation to exposure on the Atlantic coast of Europe, and that the populations combining short diffuse habit and numerous bracts may be of polytopic origin. It is suggested that they should not be given formal taxonomic recognition. 1. INTRODUCTION Like a number of other widespread Mediterranean species, Tuberaria guttata extends northwards up the west coast of Europe to a northern limit in the British Isles. Up to the north coast of France its distribution is more or less continuous, and the Channel Islands lie on the northern fringe of this essentially continuous area. But north of the English Channel its range is disjunct, and it occurs only in widely separated colonies on the coasts of north Wales and western Ireland.

Thorogood, [email protected] Received 2 September 2007; Accepted 14 December 2007 Recommended by John J. Wiens Host specificity in the parasitic plant Cytinus hypocistis was quantified at four sites in the Algarve region of Portugal from 2002 to 2007. The parasite was found to be locally host specific, and only two hosts were consistently infected: Halimium halimifolium and Cistus monspeliensis. C. hypocistis did not infect hosts in proportion to their abundance; at three sites, 100% of parasites occurred on H. halimifolium which represented just 42.4%, 3% and 19.7% of potential hosts available, respectively. At the remaining site, where H. halimifolium was absent, 100% of parasites occurred on C. monspeliensis which represented 81.1% of potential hosts available. Other species of potential host were consistently uninfected irrespective of their abundance. Ecological niche divergence of host plants H. halimifolium and C. monspeliensis may isolate host-specific races of C. hypocistis, thereby potentially driving al- lopatric divergence in this parasitic plant.

Reproductive Biology of Cistus Ladanifer (Cistaceae)
—Plant Pl. Syst. Evol. 186: 123 -134 (1993) Systematics and Evolution © Springer-Verlag 1993 Printed in Austria Digitalizado por Go to contents Biblioteca Botánica Andaluza Reproductive biology of Cistus ladanifer (Cistaceae) S. TALAVERA, P. E. GIBBS, and J. HERRERA Received May 28, 1992; in revised version November 25, 1992 Key words: Cistaceae, Cistus ladanifer. — Fruit-set, incompatibility. — Flora of the Med- iterranean, S Spain. Abstract: The phenology, major floral characteristics, fruiting levels, and breeding system of Cistus ladanifer L. (Cistaceae), a common western Mediterranean shrub species, were studied in a southern Spanish population. The white, large (64 mm in diameter) flowers of this shrub appear during spring (March—May) and produce abundant pollen and nectar. In the year of study, flowers lasted up to three days, during which they were visited by a diverse array of insects including beetles, flies, and bees. Hand-pollinations revealed that flowers do not set any seed unless cross pollen is applied to the stigma. Microscopical observations indicate that self pollen tubes grow down the stigma but invariably fail to induce fruit maturation. At the plant level, all estimates of fecundity investigated (number of seeds per capsule, proportion of ovules developing into seed, and proportion of flowers setting fruit) were highly dependent on nearest neighbour distance, with isolated plants setting as little as 0% fruit. In contrast, plants within a clump often transformed into fruit as much as 90% of the flowers. At the population level, seed output was estimated to range between 3,000 and 270,000 seeds per plant during 1991. The family Cistaceae is a very significant element in the Mediterranean flora with five genera (Cistus, Fumana, Halimium, Helianthemum, and Tuberaria) comprising major components of matorral scrub.

Chemical Analysis of the Essential Oils of Three Cistus Species Growing in North-West of Algeria | 285
ORIGINAL SCIENTIFIC PAPER | 283 Chemical Analysis of the Essential Oils of Three Cistus Species Growing in North- West of Algeria Karima BECHLAGHEM1 Hocine ALLALI1 (✉) Houcine BENMEHDI1 Nadia AISSAOUI2 Guido FLAMINI3 Summary The study reports for the first time the chemical composition and the antibacterial activity of the essential oil hydrodistilled from three Cistaceae growing in Algeria: Cistus ladaniferus L., C. albidus L. and C. monspeliensis L. The oils were analyzed by GC-FID and GC-MS analyses. The major components of C. ladaniferus were 5-epi-7-epi-α-eudesmol (13.6%) and borneol (12.5%) whereas for C. albidus the main constituents were epi-α-bisabolol (11.4%) and β-bourbonene (8.7%). Epi- 13-manoyl oxide (28.6%), kaur-16-ene (8.1%) and nonanal (5.4%) were the principal ones for C. monspeliensis. In vitro, antimicrobial activity of the oils was investigated against nine microorganisms by disk diffusion and agar dilution assays. The Gram-positive bacteria resulted sensitive to the three oils, especially Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633 and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923. The volatiles ofC. monspeliensis showed the best activity compared with other oils, comparable to or better than Gentamicin, a conventional antibiotic used as positive control in this study. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of the oil was 0.25µg/L.
