Chlorophyll contents and the activities of 3 antioxidant enzymes: superoxide dismutase (SOD, EC 1.15.1.1), catalase (CAT, EC 1.11.1.6), peroxidase (POD, EC 1.11.1.7) in the leaves were investigated under different concentrations of SDBS, The chlorophyll contents in leaves of experimental plants decreased gradually, while the electrical conductivity of culture solution increased gradually with the increased dose of SDBS. Under higher concentrations of SDBS (32 mg/L and 128 mg/L) treatment, SOD lost its activities completely after 24 h. The native PAGE analysis indicated the diversity of POD isoenzymes was obvious under different concentrations of SDBS stress.展开更多

[Method] The full-length cDNA of SGD was cloned from R. verticillata with RACE technique. Then the expression levels in different tissues were analyzed with quantitative RT-PCR and the bioinformatic characteristics were also predicted. [Result] The full-length cDNA of RvSGD was 1 856 bp, containing a 1 608 bp CDS that encoded 536 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of 61.0 kDa and an isoelectric point of 6.16. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that RvSGD shared high similarity with SGDs from Cantharanthus roseus and Rauvolfia serpentina at the amino acids; three conserved catalytic sites His-161, Glu-207 and Glu-419 were also presented in RvSGD. Quantitative RT-PCR showed that expression level of RvSGD was the highest in barks, followed by old leaves, roots, tender leaves and tender stems. [Conclusion] The present study helps to understand more about the functions of the SGD gene at the level of molecular genetics, and provides new targets for molecular regulation of TIAs biosynthesis.展开更多

Briq. is an Algerian endemic species; the phytochemical screening (methods of Harborne, 1973) of the aerials parts wealth in polyphenol compounds: flavonoids, saponins, leucoanthocyanes, terpens and steroids and tannins; there is no alkaloids. There is an important quantity of essential oils in the flowers; the interest of this study is that this species remains until then it is not very known. The results of Aromatogram method by incorporation of Mtiller-Hinton on solid medium, showed a significant antimicrobial activity (method of Duraffourd, 1987) of the infusion and the ethanolic extract; the infusion of stems and flowers is indeed much more active on Echerichia coli, Citrobacter, Enterobacter, Staph aureus and Staph epidermidis, such as flowers extracts demonstrate an important antimicrobial activity on Staph aureus, Staph epidermidis, Streptococcus, Pseudomonas and Acinetobacter recognized as antibiotic resistant. This could give opportunities for using this species in the treatment of diverse infections and as a disinfecting additive on nosocomial area. The valorization, preservation and sustainable use ofAmmoides verticillata require the protection of its habitats.展开更多
