Mediterranean area. Since ancient times, the inhabitant
s of this area have been using it for its cultural and
medicinal properties. Because of the vast diversity of biomolecules in its aerial parts, ...
Leaves of Croton stipulaceuswere extracted (EHex, ECHCl3and EEtOH extracts) to assesstheir antioxidant potential, anti-inflammatory activity in murine models and acute toxicity. EEtOH showed the highest effect in DPPH (37.80% inhibition), FRAP (1065.00 ± 55.30 μmolFe2+) ...

The aim of this study was to optimize by response surface design, the extraction of the leaf
essential oil (EO) from
Minthostachys mollis
[HBK] Griseb., grown in Ecuador, using steam distillation.
The factors used were extraction time (XTIE) of 60, 105 and 150 min and plan...
India's commercial advancement and development depend heavily on agriculture. A common
fruit grown in tropical settings is citrus. A professional judgment is required while analyzing an illness
because different diseases have slight variati
ons in their symptoms. In order to...
Medicinal plants are used to cure diseases, and their replacement
is frequent and affects public
health. The genus
Baccharis
has representatives within the medicinal flora of Argentina, although the
replacement of the species of this genus known under the vulgar name of "carqueja" by
Bacc...

Abstract Growth of plants is severely reduced due to water stress by affecting photosynthesis including photosystem II (PSII) activity and electron transport. This study emphasised on comparative and priority targeted changes in PSII activity due to progressive drought in seven populations of Panicum ant...

Abstract Under salt stress conditions, plant growth is reduced due to osmotic, nutritional and oxidative imbalance. However, salicylic acid acts in the mitigation of this abiotic stress by promoting an increase in growth, photosynthesis, nitrogen metabolism, synthesis of osmoregulators and antioxidant en...
