Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine 2012, 8:21 http://www.ethnobiomed.com/content/8/1/21 JOURNAL OF ETHNOBIOLOGY AND ETHNOMEDICINE RESEARCH Open Access Traditional food and herbal uses of wild plants in the ancient South-Slavic diaspora of Mundimitar/ Montemitro (Southern Italy) Alessandro di Tizio1, Łukasz Jacub Łuczaj2, Cassandra L Quave3, Sulejman Redžić4 and Andrea Pieroni1* Abstract Background: In Europe, only a limited number of cross-cultural comparative field studies or meta-analyses have been focused on the dynamics through which folk plant knowledge changes over space and time, while a few studies have contributed to the understanding of how plant uses change among newcomers. Nevertheless, ethnic minority groups and/or linguistic “isles” in Southern and Eastern Europe may provide wonderful arenas for understanding the various factors that influence changes in plant uses. Methods: A field ethnobotanical study was carried out in Mundimitar (Montemitro in Italian), a village of approx. 450 inhabitants, located in the Molise region of South-Eastern Italy. Mundimitar is a South-Slavic community, composed of the descendants of people who migrated to the area during the first half of the 14th century, probably from the lower Neretva valley (Dalmatia and Herzegovina regions). Eighteen key informants (average age: 63.7) were selected using the snowball sampling technique and participated in in-depth interviews regarding their Traditional Knowledge (TK) of the local flora. Results: Although TK on wild plants is eroded in Montemitro among the youngest generations, fifty-seven taxa (including two cultivated species, which were included due to their unusual uses) were quoted by the study participants.

  • Greek Island Odyssey Holiday Report 2013
    Greek Island Odyssey Holiday Report 2013 Day 1: Saturday 20th April As our plane came in to land at Rhodes airport the wildlife spotting began! We had a good view of a female Marsh Harrier and Little Egret over the nearby river. Then, on the drive to the hotel, we saw a Wood Sandpiper on the same river by the road bridge. Upon our arrival in the medieval old town Andy and Denise made a quick foray into the moat and town and found Starred Agamas, Oertzen’s Rock Lizards, a Dahl’s Whip Snake and Large Wall Brown butterflies. It was late evening by then and so we sat at a local taverna for our first traditional Greek mezedes meal and discussed plans for the week ahead over a civilized glass of wine. Day 2: Sunday 21st April After a hearty breakfast at the hotel we set off on our first Anatolian Worm Lizard full day of exploration. Our first stop was the archaeological park at Monte Smith. After parking the car and with lots of butterflies flying around us, it was hard to know just what to look at first. Andy diverted our attention, announcing that he had found an Anatolian Worm Lizard, a strange creature looking more like a worm than a lizard and which is found in Turkey and Greece. On Rhodes it is recorded only in the northern parts of the island. Lesser Fiery Copper We then moved on to watch the butterflies. The first two we identified were male and female Lesser Fiery Coppers, soon followed by Eastern Bath White, and Clouded yellow.

  • Red Poppy (Papaver Rhoeas) Poisoning: a Report of Three Cases Sedat Koçak1, Keziban Karabulut2, Birsen Ertekin3, Himmet Nak1, Başar Cander1
    DOI: 10.5152/cjms.2016.25 Case Report Red Poppy (Papaver Rhoeas) Poisoning: A Report of Three Cases Sedat Koçak1, Keziban Karabulut2, Birsen Ertekin3, Himmet Nak1, Başar Cander1 1Department of Emergency Medicine, Necmettin Erbakan University Meram School of Medicine, Konya, Turkey 2Department of Emergency Medicine, Başkent University School of Medicine, Konya, Turkey 3Department of Emergency Medicine, Beyhekim State Hospital, Konya, Turkey Red poppy (RP) is a plant that can be widely found in our country. It is known as a medicinal plant among the people. Three cases in which central nervous system (CNS) symptoms developed after eating RP have been presented. Case 1: A 29-year-old female patient was admitted to our clinic with complaints of nausea, vomiting, and convulsions after approximately 1.5–2 h of eating RP. She was apathetic and non-cooperative, and the vital findings were in normal ranges. Pin-point pupils were noted. The patient had tonic seizure once. Case 2: A 9-year-old female patient, daughter of case 1, was brought with her mother with complaints of spasm of the jaw, altered mental status, and convulsion. Agitations started 1 h later after admission. She experienced a generalized tonic-clonic seizure that continued for 5 min. Case 3: A 70-year-old female patient was brought to our clinic with mental status changes 1 hour after she had ingested RP. She was lethargic, disoriented, non-cooperative, and the pupils were miotic. An unconscious consumption of weasel grass causes negative effects, particularly effects on CNS. Because generalized seizure was only observed in the child, it was suggested that children experience more effects.

Read Full License Page 1/29 Abstract Background: Diets combine food types according to some trade-offs, as for example maximising nutrients and minimising toxins. But some diets include elements because of their activity against the host parasites and other pathogens. This so-called medicinal role of food is under-reported in the literature, either because toxic elements in diets of livestock and wildlife are infrequent, or because their activity against parasites and pathogens has not been fully documented. We contribute to ll this knowledge gap by testing the activity of extracts and essential oils from Papaver rhoeas and Echium plantagineum against a selection of laboratory pathogens. These plants are strongly selected by great bustards Otis tarda during the mating season.

    http://www.gardenorganic.org.uk/organicweeds The biology and non-chemical control of Common Poppy (Papaver rhoeas L.) W Bond, G Davies, R Turner HDRA, Ryton Organic Gardens, Coventry, CV8, 3LG, UK Common poppy (blindy-buffs, bledewort, canker rose, cheesebowl, cockrose, copper-rose, corn poppy, corn rose, cuprose, field poppy, redweed, soldiers, thunder flower, yedwark) Papaver rhoeas L. Occurrence Common poppy is a summer or more rarely winter annual native in arable land, roadsides and waste places throughout the UK (Stace, 1997). It is not recorded above 1,000 ft (Salisbury, 1961). Common poppy is found primarily in disturbed habitats. It is a weed of cornfields on light, dry, sandy and gravelly soils (Long, 1938). In an early survey of Bedfordshire and Norfolk, common poppy was one of the commonest weeds. It was found chiefly on sand, and was frequent on light loams and chalk (Brenchley, 1913). It is less frequent on clay and peat soils (McNaughton & Harper, 1964). Common poppy is mainly associated with soil of pH 6.0 to 8.0 (Grime et al., 1988). In the UK, it is common in England and SE Scotland but rarer in Wales and much of Scotland. The potential distribution of common poppy has been mapped using botanical survey and soil survey data (Firbank et al., 1998). The probable distribution was seen to be mainly in south and eastern Britain but was not related to soil type. Common poppy can occur as a birdseed alien (Hanson & Mason, 1985). Common poppy appears to be discouraged by root crops (Brenchley, 1920). In a survey of weeds in conventional cereals in central southern England in 1982, common poppy was found in 3, 1 and 2% of winter wheat, winter barley and spring barley respectively (Chancellor & Froud-Williams, 1984).

Plant Protection Society of Serbia, IOBC-EPRS, IOBC-WPRS, Belgrade, 2015, pp. 307 - 310 WEED FLORA OF VINEYARD IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA Zlatan Kovačević, Biljana Kelečević and Siniša Mitrić University of Banja Luka, Faculty of Agriculture Bulevar vojvode Petra Bojovica 1 A, 78000 Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina AbstrAct Two-year study (2008-2010) weed flora of vineyards in Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H) performed on 51 locality. As result of this research it was found 133 species of vascular plants covered with: 112 genera, 39 families, 4 class and 2 divisions. The analysis of the biological spectrum showed 5 life forms with predominant presence of terophytes (45.86%), hemicryptophytes (39.85%) and geophytes (9.77%). Phytogeography analysis has been allocated 9 floristic groups, and the most common are: Cosmopolitan, Eurasian, Mediterranean, Boreal, Adventive and sub-Mediterranean, and together comprise 125 species (93.98%). It is very significant participation of 14 adventive species, and some species have taken invasive character, for example Ambrosia artemisiifolia L. Weed flora of vineyard in B&H is rich in flora due to the existence of continental and sub-Mediterranean wine-growing region. Considerable diversity is caused by the specifics of the study area, which are reflected in different climatic, edaphic and orographic characteristics, plant-geography, and different intensities of anthropogenic influences, traditions and the cultivation of grapevine. On the other hand it is important a presence of cosmopolitan and adventive species that are more or less extensively spread, and beside of typical weed and weed-ruderal species in weed flora of vineyards in B&H it was determined a significant number of ruderal and meadow species.

  • Why Wear a Poppy on Memorial Day, Veterans Day and National Poppy Day
    Why wear a Poppy on Memorial Day, Veterans Day and National Poppy Day www.12dis.org/ In the spring of 1915, shortly after losing a friend in Ypres, a Canadian doctor, Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae was inspired by the sight of poppies growing in battle-scarred fields to write a now famous poem called 'In Flanders Fields'. After the First World War, the poppy was adopted as a symbol of Remembrance. During the First World War (1914–1918) much of the fighting took place in Western Europe. Previously beautiful countryside was blasted, bombed and fought over, again and again. The landscape swiftly turned to fields of mud: bleak and barren scenes where little or nothing could grow. Bright red Flanders poppies (Papaver rhoeas) however, were delicate but resilient flowers and grew in their thousands, flourishing even in the middle of chaos and destruction. On impulse, Moina Michael bought a bouquet of poppies and handed them to businessmen meeting at the New York YMCA where she worked. She asked them to wear the poppy as a tribute to the fallen. That was November 1918. World War I was over, but America's sons would rest forever "in Flanders' Fields." Later she would spearhead a campaign that would result in the adoption of the poppy as the national symbol of sacrifice. On September 27, 1920, the poppy became the official flower of The American Legion family to memorialize the soldiers who fought and died during the war. In 1924, the distribution of poppies became a national program of The American Legion. The (Royal) British Legion, formed in 1921, ordered 9 million of these poppies and sold them on 11 November that year.

    Report of the Scientific Committee of the Spanish Agency for Consumer Affairs, Food Safety and Nutrition (AECOSAN) in relation to the assessment of the exposure of the Spanish population to morphine resulting from the consumption of poppy seeds Section of Food Safety and Nutrition Reference number: AECOSAN-2016-001 Elena Alonso Lebrero, José Manuel Barat Baviera, María Report approved by the Section of Food Safety and Pilar Conchello Moreno, Ramón Estruch Riba, María Antonia Nutrition of the Scientific Committee on plenary session Ferrús Pérez, Guillermina Font Pérez, Susana Guix Arnau, May, 18th 2016 1 Arturo Hardisson de la Torre, Ángeles Jos Gallego, Ascensión revista del comité científico nº Marcos Sánchez, Amelia Marti del Moral, Olga Martín Belloso, Working group María Aránzazu Martínez Caballero, Alfredo Palop Gómez, José Luis Ríos Cañavate (Coordinator) Gaspar Pérez Martínez, José Luis Ríos Cañavate, Gaspar Ros Guillermina Font Pérez Berruezo, Jesús Ángel Santos Buelga, Jesús Simal Gándara, María Aránzazu Martínez Caballero Josep Antoni Tur Marí Josep Antoni Tur Marí Ricardo López Rodríguez (AECOSAN) Technical Secretary 23 Vicente Calderón Pascual Abstract Poppy seeds (Papaver somniferum) are traditionally used in some countries in the manufacture of bread and cakes. In Spain, the dietary intake of these seeds is low and the variety of poppy mainly grown in the country is used to obtain morphine. Although poppy seeds do not contain opium alkaloids or these occur at very low levels, they may be contaminated with alkaloids, as a result of damage caused by certain insects or of the external contamination of the seeds during harvest if dust particles from the straw become attached to the seeds.

  • Phenotype of Some Micromorfology of Some Papaveraceae Species Expressed As Protective Seminal Layer
    PHENOTYPE OF SOME MICROMORFOLOGY OF SOME PAPAVERACEAE SPECIES EXPRESSED AS PROTECTIVE SEMINAL LAYER CLAUDIA VORNICEANU, NAELA COSTICĂ, ION I. BĂRA Abstract: The present paper represents a contribution to the identification of new descriptive criteria and to the detection of the micromorphological specificity of the testa’s epidermal cells at the seeds that belong to the following four Papaveraceae: Chelidonium majus L., Glaucium flavum Cr., Papaver rhoeas L. úi Papaver somnifemm L. Key words: Papaveraceae, seeds, testa, epidermis, micromorphological specificity INTRODUCTION The morphology and the seed structure of Papaveraceae are detailed in classical botanical and vegetal anatomy studies /1,4,5/. With references to the seminal layer, a conclusion came up together with the application of the scanning electronic microscopy in the seed issued researches: the description of the layer micromorphology is useful in taxonomy, allowing some evolutionary interpretations, too. Moreover, the research of the fossil seed’s micromorphology benefits of a high interest (Boulter, 1986, cf. Barthlott, 1981 / 3 /. The descriptive terminology for the micromorphological diversity of the epicuticular structures was set up by Metcalfe, Chalk (1979) and Barthlott (1981) /cf. 3/. In the micromorphological analysis, a special attention is granted to the cuticle. Up to present, there were elucidated a series of details regarding: its structure and chemical composition (Bowen and Walton, 1988; Riederer úi Schonherr, 1988), water permeability (Becker et al. 1986,) and its sorption properties (Riederer and Schonherr 1986; Schonherr and Riederer, 1986 /2/. In the specialized literature, the seed’s examination at Papaveraceae is scarcely broached. Disparate information regarding this issue is presented with the occasion of studying some particularities of the capsule’s differentiations and re-differentiations, at some species of Papaveraceae /7/.
