We invite you to celebrate it together. In our picturesque town, surrounded by mountains, with a rich history and vibrant culture, you will have the possibility to exchange scientific knowledge and lay the foundation for further collaborations. Also, in addition to the scientific program, we propose a one day trip in the mountainous area of the Neamt County. We acknowledge the contribution of our colleagues from the Phytochemical Society of Europe (PSE) which kindly accepted to be part of our symposium. We are very grateful to all our sponsors for financial support and to all people involved in organisation of this symposium. We sincerely hope that this symposium will meet all your expectations. Welcome to Piatra Neamt and we wish you a pleasant stay! On behalf of the Organizing committee, Dr. Elvira GILLE, Chairman Head of the NIRDBS/"Stejarul" Biological Research Centre, Piatra Neamt, Romania Dr. Mihael Cristin ICHIM, Co-chairman Scientific Researcher/NIRDBS/"Stejarul" Biological Research Centre, Piatra Neamt, Romania The symposium is dedicated to the 60-year celebration of the „Stejarul” Biological Research Centre – MAPPPS 2016, Piatra Neamt, ROMANIA – Page 4 Analele Ştiinţifice ale Universităţii „Al. I. Cuza” Iaşi s. II a. Biologie vegetală, 2016, 62, 1 Dear Colleagues, In the framework of the European regional development policies, the Europe-Asia research of the river basins, as well as that of the EU Strategy for the Danube Region that aims the sustainable development of the Danube-Danube Delta-Black Sea system, assuring the environment protection and an increase of the Danube Region welfare, Romania tries, by implementing far- reaching strategic projects, to actively contribute to the regional sustainability. The Romanian project of strategic importance, “The International Centre of Advanced Studies for the Râu-Mare Systems” DANUBIUS-RI, is the expression of this continuous approach. The project became, in 2013, the flagship project of the Danube European Strategy. In the same year, DANUBIUS-RI entered the common declaration of the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM) Water and River Basin Management in Can Tho City, Viet Nam. Yet the greatest achievement is that, since March, the 14th, 2016, the project has been included in the ESFRI (European Strategy Forum for Research Infrastructure Roadmap). The National Institute for Research and Development of Biological Sciences, Bucharest is one of the project coordinators being responsible for the Life Sciences domain. The ”DANUBIUS-RI” Centre also has a socio-economic component, so that the research results be taken over and put into practice. The investigation of the bio-economic plant potential is part of a large strategy at European level: in 2012, The European Commission made the call of the strategy „O Bio- economy for Europe”, namely the building of a bio-economy based on the sustainable use of the naturally regenerating resources, on competition, on socio-economic and environment problems, an economy to respond to some challenges such as food security, natural resource deficit, dependence on fossil resources and climatic changes. In Romania, The National Strategy for Research, Development and Innovation 2014–2020 settles the importance of the development of bio-economy as a national field of intelligent specializing, plant investigation in the Danube Basin. The investigation of the plant bio-economic potential in the Danube – Danube Delta – Black Sea area is a priority of the development strategy of the DANUBIUS-RI CENTRE. Taking into account the fact that bio-economy

H. perforatum was determined to exist more abundantly in the research area in comparison with H. montbretii and H. origanifolium. While H. montbretii and H. origani- folium have black glands, H. perforatum lack such glands. Upon the examination of the root cross-rections, the pith was determined to be completely covered by xylem cells. As to stem cross-sections, it was observed that large parenchymatic cells were present in the pith of the young stems, while old stems were observed to have formed cavity in their pith. The species examined were determined to bear resemblance to one another in con- sideration of their leaf anatomy. Leaves are equifacial and amphistomatic and they have amaryllis type stomata. They are mesomorphic and there are schizo-lisigenous type secretion pockets in the leaves. Compared to adja- cent cells,stomata are anisositic or diasitic. Stomata on the lower surface of the leaves show higher frequencies than those on the upper surface.

Biodiversity Data Journal 8: e48704. https://doi.org/10.3897/BDJ.8.e48704 Abstract Lake Kastoria is one of the potentially “ancient” Balkan lakes that has a great environmental importance and ecological value, attracts high touristic interest and is under various anthropogenic pressures. It belongs to a Natura 2000 Special Protection Area and a Site of Community Interest. The city of Kastoria is located at the western part of the lake and just next to it, towards the centre of the lake, is a peninsula, a habitat island. In the framework of research concerning the flora of lake islands of Greece, one of the main objectives of the present study is to fill a gap concerning plant species richness of the habitat island within the protected Lake Kastoria, which is surrounded by the lake except for its north-western part where the border of the city of Kastoria is located.

(http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/B6T6R-4W6XYK9- 1/2/708e866c3d7f370d81917ed145af525a) Abstract: Introduction The antioxidant properties of essential oils (EOs) have been on the centre of intensive research for their potential use as preservatives or nutraceuticals by the food industry. The enormous amount of information already generated on this subject provides a rich field for data-miners as it is conceivable, with suitable computational techniques, to predict the antioxidant capacity of any essential oil just by knowing its particular chemical composition. To accomplish this task we here report on the design, training and validation of an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) able to predict the antioxidant activity of EOs of known chemical composition.Methods A multilayer ANN with 30 input neurons, 42 in hidden layers (20 --> 15 --> 7) and one neuron in the output layer was developed and run using Fast Artificial Neural Network software. The chemical composition of 32 EOs and their antioxidant activity in the DPPH and linoleic acid models were extracted from the scientific literature and used as input values. From the initial set of around 80 compounds present in these EOs, only 30 compounds with relevant antioxidant capacity were selected to avoid excessive complexity of the neural network and minimise the associated structural problems.Results and discussion The ANN could predict the antioxidant capacities of essential oils of known chemical composition in both the DPPH and linoleic acid assays with an average error of only 3.16% and 1.46%, respectively.

The essential oils investigated were characterized by a high content of non-terpene compounds and a low content of monoterpenes. The contents of non-terpenes, monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes in oils of the species H. barbatum, H. richeri and H. rumeliacum (section Drosocaprium) were similar and these oils were characterized by high contents of fatty acids. The oils of H. hirsutum and H. linarioides (section Taeniocarpium) contained a high percentage of n-nonane. There were similar- ities in contents of non-terpenes and sesquiterpenes in oils of species that belong to the section Hypericum (H. maculatum, H. per- foratum and H. tetrapterum). The oil of H. olympicum differed from others by higher terpene content. A comparison was also carried out of the chemical composition of the essential oils from flower, leaf and stem of H.

Abstract: Karyotype of the Balkan endemic, Hypericum rumeliacum , was studied using root tip meristems of in vitro propagated plants. The absolute length of the chromosomes varied between 0.97 and 1.59 µm. The karyotype formula of the basic chromosome set (x = 7) was 3m + 1m sat + 3sm. Karyotype data were compared with other karyotype data for the genus Hypericum avaliable in literature. Only one common chromosome type – substantially bigger chromosome, is clearly distinguishable in some of the species. The other chromosomes are small, median to submedian and often difficult to distinguish due to their small size. Asymmetry index is low in Hypericum rumeliacum and other species with available karyotype data suggesting that they underwent no major karyotype rearrangements in their evolutionary pathway. Keywords: Hypericum spp ., endemic species, chromosomes, asymmetry index, in vitro cultured plants Introduction The genus Hypericum (Guttiferae ) comprises more than 450 species grouped into 30 sections.

Monographic work on the genus has resulted in the recognition and description of 36 taxonomic sections, delineated by specific combinations of morphological characteristics and biogeographic distribution. The Mediterranean Basin has been recognized as a hot spot of diversity for the genus Hypericum, and as such is a region in which many endemic species occur. Species belonging to sections distributed in this area of the world display considerable morphological and phytochemical diversity. Results of a cladistic analysis, based on 89 morphological characters that were considered phylogenetically informative, are given here. In addition, a brief overview of morphological characteristics and the distribution of pharmaceutically relevant secondary metabolites for species native to this region of the world are presented. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The chemical composition of the essential oils obtained from the aerial parts of the H. uniglandulosum Hausskn. ex Bornm., H. scabroides Robson & Poulter, H. kotschyanum Boiss., H. salsugineum Robson & Hub.-Mor. and H. thymopsis Boiss, five of the endemic species of Turkey by using the hydrodistillation method was identified by GC and GC/MS. The major components were identified as follows: 2,6-Dimethyl-3,5-heptadien-2-one (40.7%), nonacosane (3.2%), hexadecanoic acid (2.7%) and α-pinene (2.7%) in H. uniglandulosum; hexadecanoic acid (17.7%), spathulenol (5.3%), nonacosane (4.4%), dodecanoic acid (4.1%), baeckeol (4.1%) and γ-muurolene (3.9%) in H. scabroides; α-pinene (14.4%), nonacosane (11.1%), hexadecanoic acid (9.2%), β-pinene (8.7%), spathulenol (6.3%) and limonene (5.1%) in H.
