  • Artemisia Verlotiorum Lamotte - Assenzio Dei Fratelli Verlot, Artemisia Dei Fratelli Verlot, Assenzio Selvatico
    Artemisia verlotiorum Lamotte - assenzio dei fratelli Verlot, artemisia dei fratelli Verlot, assenzio selvatico Distribuzione: Artemisia verlotiorum è originaria dell’Asia Ordine: Asterales Orientale, nello specifico della Cina, introdotta in Europa a Famiglia: Asteraceae seguito delle guerre francesi in Cina del fine Ottocento e segnalata per la prima volta a Grenoble e Clermont-Ferrand (Francia) nel 1873, da dove si è rapidamente diffusa in tutta Europa, Italia inclusa. La si può trovare dai 0 ai 600 m s.l.m. In Lombardia è fortemente presente in tutte le province dov’è ritenuta invasiva. Identificazione: pianta erbacea perenne, alta 50-200 cm, con intenso odore aromatico (vermouth); fusto eretto, ramoso, con lunghi rizomi o stoloni orizzontali striscianti. Foglie 1-2 pennatosette, verde scuro e glabrescenti di sopra, verde- grigiastro chiaro e pelose inferiormente, con lacinie intere; foglie superiori con segmenti di primo ordine interi. Capolini numerosi, ovoidi, subsessili, più lunghi che larghi, con brattee glabrescenti, e costituiti da numerosi fiori tubulosi a corolla bruna o rossastra; infiorescenza a pannocchia strettamente piramidale, fogliosa. I frutti sono acheni lunghi 2-3 mm, bruni, senza pappo. Specie simili: può essere confusa con il falso assenzio (Artemisia vulgaris), specie autoctona propria delle comunità di erbe perenni in ambiente secondario, che si distingue per l’assenza quasi totale di aroma, per non possedere rizomi o stoloni evidenti (pianta cespitosa) e per le foglie superiori con segmenti dentati o poco divisi. Biologia ed ecologia: forte competitore allelopatico, caratterizzato da esuberanza espansiva (rapido allungamento Pianta di A. verlotiorum in fiore (Foto di G. Brusa) e frazionamento dei rizomi), capace in breve tempo di stabilizzare popolamenti monofitici densi ed estesi, che impediscono o limitano fortemente la crescita delle altre specie erbacee.

T. Kim, C. -H. Kim1, K. -S. Min2 and S. S. Lee* Division of Applied Life Science (BK21 program), Graduate School of Gyeongsang National University, IALS, Jinju, 660-701, Korea ABSTRACT: This study was conducted to evaluate effects of plant extracts on methanogenesis and rumen microbial diversity in in vitro. Plant extracts (Artemisia princeps var. Orientalis; Wormwood, Allium sativum for. Pekinense; Garlic, Allium cepa; Onion, Zingiber officinale; Ginger, Citrus unshiu; Mandarin orange, Lonicera japonica; Honeysuckle) were obtained from the Plant Extract Bank at Korea Research Institute of Bioscience and Biotechnology. The rumen fluid was collected before morning feeding from a fistulated Holstein cow fed timothy and commercial concentrate (TDN; 73.5%, crude protein; 19%, crude fat; 3%, crude fiber; 12%, crude ash; 10%, Ca; 0.8%, P; 1.2%) in the ratio of 3 to 2. The 30 ml of mixture, comprising McDougall buffer and rumen liquor in the ratio of 4 to 1, was dispensed anaerobically into serum bottles containing 0.3 g of timothy substrate and plant extracts (1% of total volume, respectively) filled with O2-free N2 gas and capped with a rubber stopper. The serum bottles were held in a shaking incubator at 39C for 24 h. Total gas production in all plant extracts was higher (p<0.05) than that of the control, and total gas production of ginger extract was highest (p<0.05).

    April 2006 Biol. Pharm. Bull. 29(4) 629—633 (2006) 629 Development of SCAR Marker for Discrimination of Artemisia princeps and A. argyi from Other Artemisia Herbs a b b a b Mi Young LEE, Eui Jeong DOH, Chae Haeng PARK, Young Hwa KIM, Eung Soo KIM, a ,b Byong Seob KO, and Seung-Eun OH* a Korea Insititute of Oriental Medicine; Daejon 305–811, Korea: and b Department of Biological Sciences, Konkuk University; Seoul 143–701, Korea. Received September 21, 2005; accepted January 11, 2006 Some Artemisia herbs are used for medicinal purposes. In particular, A. princeps and A. argyi are classified as ‘Aeyup’ and are used as important medicinal material in traditional Korean medicine. On the other hand, A. capillaris and A. iwayomogi, which are classified as ‘Injinho’ and ‘Haninjin’, respectively, are used for other pur- poses distinct from those of ‘Aeyup’. However, sometimes ‘Aeyup’ is not clearly discriminated from ‘Injinho’ and/or ‘Haninjin’. Furthermore, Artemisia capillaris and/or A. iwayomogi have been used in place of A. princeps and A. argyi. In this study, we developed an efficient method to discriminate A. argyi and A. princeps from other Artemisia plants. The RAPD (random amplified polymorphic DNA) method efficiently discriminated various Artemisia herbs. In particular, non-specific primer 329 (5؅-GCG AAC CTC C-3؅), which shows polymorphism among Artemisia herbs, amplified 838 bp products, which are specific to A. princeps and A. argyi only. Based on (nucleotide sequence of the primer 329 product, we designed a Fb (5؅-CAT CAA CCA TGG CTT ATC CT-3؅ -and R7 (5؅-GCG AAC CTC CCC ATT CCA-3؅) primer-set to amplify a 254 bp sized SCAR (sequence character ized amplified regions) marker, through which A.

Bedini1, G. Flamini2, R. Ascrizzi2, F. Venturi1, G. Ferroni1, A. Bader3, J. Girardi1 & B. Conti 1 Accepted: 2 November 2018 Repellents are a main tool to prevent the outbreak of mosquito-borne diseases that represents a threat Published online: 14 December 2018 for millions of people worldwide. Plant-based products are very promising, low-toxic and eco-friendly alternative to synthetic repellents. Here, we performed an olfactory screening of the essential oils (EOs) of Artemisia verlotiorum Lamotte (Asteraceae), Lavandula dentata L. (Lamiaceae), and Ruta chalepensis L. (Rutaceae) for their possible use as ingredients in topical repellents. The EOs smell profles were then matched with their repellence against the mosquito Aedes albopictus (Skuse) (Diptera Culicidae). To obtain a more complete bioactivity description, we also tested the EOs oviposition deterrence and the larvicidal activity. The best smell profle was associated with A. verlotiorum EO, while R. chalepensis EO showed the lowest overall pleasantness. All the EOs had a signifcant activity as skin repellent against Ae. albopictus, deterred the oviposition in the feld, and exerted a clear larvicidal activity. Beside the best smell profle, A. verlotiorum EO showed also the longest lasting repellent efect, assuring the complete protection of the treated skin against Ae. albopictus for a time 60% longer than the synthetic repellent DEET. Te Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus (Skuse) (Diptera Culicidae) is ranked among the most invasive mos- quito species in the world1.

The genus Artemisia includes the largest genus of family Asteraceae has several medicinal uses in human and plant diseases aliments. Extensive investigations on essential oil composition, antimicrobial, insecticidal and antioxidant studies have been conducted for various species of this genus. In this review, we have compiled data of recent literature (2012–2017) on essential oil composition, antimicrobial, insecticidal and antioxidant activities of different species of the genus Artemisia. Regarding the antimicrobial and insecticidal properties we have only described here efficacy of essential oils against plant pathogens and insect pests. The literature revealed that 1, 8-cineole, beta-pinene, thujone, artemisia ketone, camphor, caryophyllene, camphene and germacrene D are the major components in most of the essential oils of this plant species. Oils from different species of genus Artemisia exhibited strong antimicrobial activity against plant pathogens and insecticidal activity against insect pests. However, only few species have been explored for antioxidant activity. Keywords: Artemisia; essential oil; chemical composition; antimicrobial; insecticidal; antioxidant 1.

View the peer-reviewed version (peerj.com/articles/2781), which is the preferred citable publication unless you specifically need to cite this preprint. Horn T, Häser A. 2016. Bamboo tea: reduction of taxonomic complexity and application of DNA diagnostics based on rbcL and matK sequence data. PeerJ 4:e2781 https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.2781 Adulteration of herbal products: Bamboo tea authentication Thomas Horn Corresp., 1 , Annette Häser 1 1 Molecular Cellbiology, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Karlsruhe, Germany Corresponding Author: Thomas Horn Email address: [email protected] Background. Names for ”substances” used in food products are rarely precise. The term bamboo (Bambusoideae, Poaceae) comprises over 1600 distinct species of which only few are well established sources for food products on the European market (i.e. bamboo sprouts). Methods. We analysed bamboo species and tea products containing an exotic ingredient (bamboo leaves) using anatomical leaf characters and DNA sequence data. Our primary concern was to determine the taxonomic origin of bamboo leaves to establish a baseline for EU legislation, to introduce a simple PCR based test to distinguish bamboo from other Poaceae leaf components and to assess the diagnostic potential of DNA Barcoding markers to resolve taxonomic entities within the bamboo subfamily and tribes. Results. Based on anatomical and DNA data we can pinpoint the taxonomic origin of genuine bamboo leaves used in commercial products to the genera Phyllostachys and Pseudosasa from the temperate ”woody” bamboo tribe (Arundinarieae). We detected adulteration by carnation in 4 of 8 tea products and, after adapting our objectives, could trace the taxonomic origin of the adulterant to Dianthus chinensis (Caryophyllaceae), a well known traditional Chinese medicine with counter indications for pregnant women.
