AB  - The aim of the study was to investigate the biological activity and chemical composition of Satureja kitaibelii Wierzb. ex Heuff. LC–PDA/MS analyses for the aqueous extracts (A1-stem, leaves and flowers, A2-leaves and flowers) and ethyl-acetate extracts (E1-stem, leaves and flowers, E2-leaves and flowers) obtained by ultrasound-assisted extraction enabled the identification of thirty-four compounds. Quantitative analysis revealed that the aqueous extract obtained from leaves and flowers was the richest in total phenolic acids (65.36 mg/g) and flavonoids (21.17 mg/g). The total polyphenol content was the highest in the aqueous extract obtained from leaves and flowers (274 ± 2.4 mg Gallic Acid equivalents/g). The best antioxidant activity was observed for the same extract using the DPPH (SC50 20 ± 10 µg/mL), ABTS (2.834 ± 0.02 mg Ascorbic Acid/g), FRAP (1.922 ± 0.03 mmol Fe 2+ /mg), and total reducing power tests (16.4 ± 1.0 mg Ascorbic Acid/g). Both ethyl acetate extracts were the most active against strains of Bacillus cereus and Micrococcus flavus (MIC 1.70–1.99 mg/mL and 1.99–3.41 mg/mL, respectively). They were more efficient against Aspergillus ochraceus (MFC 0.86 mg/mL) and towards HeLa cell lines. All the obtained results implied the good potential of the investigated extracts to be used as effective preservatives and functional ingredients in food products and dietary supplements.

AB  - We investigated the total phenolic and flavonoid contents and the anthocyanin profiles in aqueous, ethanol and acetone extracts of Prunus spinosa (Rosaceae) fruit, and their antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, antidiabetic and antitumor properties. The contribution of polyphenol contents to the bioactivity of the extracts was calculated and observed through Pearson’s coefficient of correlation. The acetone extract was the richest in phenols and anthocyanins and the ethanol extract in flavonoids. Cyanidin was the most abundant anthocyanin compound in all examined extracts. The ethanol extract showed the most promising antioxidant activity in DPPH, ABTS and FRAP assays. Tested bacteria were more affected by the ethanol than by the aqueous extract. Both the ethanol and aqueous extracts exhibited potential antidiabetic effects, observed as inhibition of α-amylase and α-glucosidase, enzymes linked with diabetes mellitus type II. The ethanol extract was a potent α-glucosidase-inhibitor with a significantly lower IC50 value than the positive control, glucobay, used to treat diabetes mellitus type II. Neither the ethanol nor the aqueous extracts had any effects on tested human malignant cell lines. Our results indicate that the ethanol extract showed the most pronounced in vitro antioxidant and antimicrobial effects, and a potential antidiabetic activity, which can be ascribed to its high flavonoid content. Our results indicate that research of compounds, particularly of flavonoids present in the ethanol extract and their anti-diabetic properties should be examined further.

AB  - The variability of n-alkanes in the needle cuticular wax of Pinus heldreichii and P. peuce in two natural populations from the Scardo-Pindic mountains was investigated for the first time. Gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analyses of two-year-old needles were performed us-ing an Agilent 7890A GC equipped with an inert 5975C XL EI/CI mass spectrometer detector (MSD) and a flame ionization detector (FID) connected by a capillary flow technology 2-way splitter with make-up. An HP-5MS capillary column was used. n-Alkanes ranged from C19 to C33. In P. heldreichii the most abundant were C23, C25 and C27 (16.3, 15.6 and 12.8 % on average, respectively), while in P. peuce they were C29, C25, and C27 (16.5, 15.3 and 13.5 % on average, resp.). Mid-chain and long-chain n-alkanes prevailed in both species. Principle component analysis (PCA) and Cluster analyses of five and six n-alkanes, respectively, showed divergence of the Scardo-Pindic populations from the Dinaric ones.

AB  - Chokeberries (Aronia melanocarpa (Michx.) Elliot have recently become one of the most popular and widely used berry fruits, and there are numerous studies dealing with the investigation of their chemical composition and biological activities. Unlike berries, chokeberry leaves were far less investigated. Therefore, the aim of this study was to conduct a bioactivity-based analysis of chokeberry leaves collected after berries were harvested. Chemical analysis of hydroethanolic chokeberry extract and its ethyl acetate, n-butanol, and water fractions was performed. Antioxidant, hypoglycemic, and antineurodegenerative activities of the obtained samples were assessed by in vitro tests. The highest total phenolics content was found in n-butanol fraction (221.5 mg gallic acid equivalents/g dw). Fourteen compounds (six phenolic acids and eight flavonoids) were identified in the samples. Caffeoylquinic acid derivatives and quercetin glycosides were dominant phenolic compounds. The highest content of phenolic acids, as well as flavonoids, was recorded in n-butanol fraction (80.75 mg/g dw and 47.79 mg/g dw, respectively). This fraction was the most active in 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2′-azino-bis (3-ethyl-benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assays. Also, the n-butanol fraction was the most effective inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and tyrosinase (TYR) enzymes. All samples showed a better inhibitory effect on α-glucosidase enzyme with inhibition concentrations IC50 = 4.21 - 9.22 μg/mL, than α-amylase enzymes (IC50 = 14.36 - 88.61 μg/mL). Pearson’s correlation between the content of individual phenolics and the results of biological tests was performed. Thus, hyperoside and isoquercitrin showed a significant correlation with DPPH and ABTS tests, caffeoylquinic acids with FRAP test, quercetin 3-O-vicianoside with β-carotene assay, hyperoside and isoquercitrin with α-amylase inhibition activity, and isorhamnetin 3-O-rutinoside with α-glucosidase inhibition assay. Considering the obtained results, chokeberry leaves represent a valuable natural source of phenolic compounds with promising potential for the development of new products with beneficial effects on human health.

AB  - Comparison of twelve conifer species (Abies alba, A. concolor, A. nordmanniana, A. pinsapo, Cedrus atlantica, C. deodara, Picea abies, P. omorika, P. pungens, Pseudotsuga menziesii, Taxus baccata, andPinus nigra) in the sense of needle morpho-anatomy and pollen morpho-physiology, in correlation to air pollution, was performed for the first time. Analyzed properties of species werealso compared with literature sources. Listed conifers were investigated in five Belgrade parks, characterised by different degrees of air pollution, especially CO2. Their rank, I-V, was performed from non-polluted to heavily-polluted parks. Ranking in the sense of needle morpho-anatomy and pollen morpho-physiology didnot match expected ones, but park V remained the worst for many analyzed species. Trees with shorter needles had greater stomatal density, which was particularly prominent in A. alba, A. nordmanniana, P. abies, P. omorika, P. nigraand T. baccata. The pollen grains of C. atlanticaand T. baccatawere the most sensitive to air pollution. In some analyzed species distance of particular trees close to the heavy traffic also was in correlation with needle dimensions (P. omorika, A. concolor, A. nordmanniana, P. nigra), stomatal density (A. alba, P. abies, P. omorika, P. pungens) and pollen vitality (A. pinsapo, C. atlantica, P. menziessi, P. nigra, andT. baccata).

AB  - Eight morpho-anatomical properties of two-year-old needles of Pinus heldreichii (Bosnian pine) from the Scardo-Pindic mountain massif in Serbia (Kosovo, Mt. Ošljak) and North Macedonia (Mt. Gali.ica) were investigated. All measured characteristics, except for needle length, were inspected on mid-needle cross-section. Cross-sections were obtained with razorblade, while measurements were performed with Leica-Gallen III light microscope. The mean values of the analyzed characters were as follows: 5.91 cm (needle length), 1.35 mm (needle width), 0.85 mm (needle thickness), 25.05 μm (cuticle + epidermis thickness), 69.90 μm (height of hypodermal cells), 21.76 μm (resin duct diameter), 3.4 (number of hypodermis layers), and 3.6 (number of resin ducts). P. heldreichii needles also had 2-5 hypodermis layers and 0-12 resin ducts. The highest variation was in the number of resin ducts (CV=27%). In comparison with previously investigated needles from the Dinaric mountains, P. heldreichii needles from the Scardo-Pindic massif were shorter and had a thicker layer of hypodermis. PCA and CA visualize partial segregation of P. heldreichii populations between the two mountain massifs.

AB  - This work represents an ethnobotanical and ethnomedicinal study focused on recording autochthonous pear varieties of the Polimlje region in southwest Serbia. The purpose of the study was to highlight genetic resources of pear varieties in situ and emphasize aspects of ethnodiversity and traditional knowledge. A special feature of the research area is the great diversity of indigenous varieties of pear, which have been cultivated for hundreds of years. Forty-six respondents from 25 to 78 years of age residing in 23 villages were interviewed, and 26 autochthonous pear varieties were recorded in the field. Among them 11.5% are widely available, 26.9% are rare, and 61.5% are very rare. For ethnomedicinal purposes, pear is used as a remedy against hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol, and constipation; for reduction of body mass; as a uroseptic and/or an antirheumatic; and for cancer prevention. Pears are consumed as fresh fruit and in numerous food products. Depopulation of the investigated rural area is directly responsible for depletion of the gene pool of pear varieties and for loss of traditional knowledge. Preservation can be achieved by in situ methods such as raising awareness of the local inhabitants and ensuring support of the State.

AB  - The activity of edible Nepeta nuda L. (Lamiaceae) tincture and Listerine towards a selected group of oral pathogenic microorganisms (4 bacterial and 9 fungal strains) has been explored. Their potentials to inhibit the formation of biofilm and to diminish established biofilm have been compared. The amount of N. nuda tincture and swishing time necessary for reaching better or equivalent antimicrobial effect than that of Listerine have been predicted. Phenolic compounds in N. nuda tincture are determined by LC-DAD/ESI-MSn. Both Listerine and N. nuda tincture possess good antimicrobial potentials (MIC in the range of 0.8-15 μL per well) including inhibition of biofilms. Rosmarinic acid and verminoside are the most dominant phenolic compounds present in the N. nuda tincture. Based on in vitro results, we infer that it is more desirable to swish 20 mL of mouthwashes (Listerine and N. nuda tincture, 100 mg mL-1) for 30 s when dealing with selected microorganisms in general and for 60 s (N. nuda tincture) when dealing with bacterial biofilms.

AB  - The essential oil of Thymus algeriensis was analyzed as a potential preservative in soft cheese. We developed a novel method to test the preserving properties of essential oil in soft cheese. Contamination incidence of Penicillium aurantiogriseum was absent after 30 d of storage at 4°C with 25 µL of essential oil added. The antimicrobial activity was tested against 8 bacteria and 8 fungi. Thymus algeriensis oil showed inhibitory activity against tested bacteria at 0.03 to 0.09 mg/mL, and bactericidal activity was achieved at 0.05 to 0.15 mg/mL. For antifungal activity, minimum inhibitory concentrations ranged between 0.01 and 0.04 mg/mL and minimum fungicidal concentrations between 0.01 and 0.04 mg/mL. Furthermore, the oil was also screened for antiradical activity using the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl assay. The results showed that the oil was active and achieved half-maximal inhibitory activity at 0.132 mg/mL. We used gas chromatography, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry to investigate the volatile compounds from the oil. Carvacrol was identified as the main compound in the oil, represented by 80.9% of the total constituents, followed by p-cymene (7.7%).

AB  - Genetic relationships among 12 taxa from subgenera Pinus and Strobus were studied through fourteen microsatellite markers, previously developed for Pinus taeda. To our knowledge, this is the first comparative study of pines using nuclear EST-microsatellites (EST-SSRs). The total number of detected alleles in all investigated taxa was 72 (5.14 in average). The numbers of alleles per locus and PIC values for estimated markers ranged from 3 to 7, and from 0.43 to 0.81, respectively. Presented results are in accordance with majority of previous genetic investigations and infrageneric classification of genus Pinus up to the sectional level, while subsectional position of some species has still not dismissed, especially regarding relict ones. According to nuclear EST-SSRs, Pinus heldreichii is in early-diverging position within subsection Pinaster and shows the greatest closeness with P. halepensis, while Pinus peuce doesn't have basal position within subsection Strobus being more close to P. strobus than to P. wallichiana. Furthermore, the closest connections in subsection Pinus were found between two Pinus nigra subspecies (dalmatica and nigra) as well as between P. sylvestris and P. mugo.

AB  - The n‐alkane composition in the leaf cuticular waxes of natural populations of Bosnian pine (Pinus heldreichii), Austrian pine (P. nigra), and Macedonian pine (P. peuce) was compared for the first time. The range of n‐alkanes was wider in P. nigra (C16 – C33) than in P. heldreichii and P. peuce (C18 – C33). Species also diverged in abundance and range of dominant n‐alkanes (P. heldreichii: C23, C27, and C25; P. nigra: C25, C27, C29, and C23; P. peuce: C29, C25, C27, and C23). Multivariate statistical analyses (PCA, DA, and CA) generally pointed out separation of populations of P. nigra from populations of P. heldreichii and P. peuce (which were, to a greater or lesser extent, separated too). However, position of these species on the basis of n‐alkane composition was in accordance neither with infrageneric classification nor with recent molecular and terpene investigations.

AB  - This study shows Laserpitium ochridanum essential oil composition, its antifungal potency, and possible antioxidant, antimicrobial and anti-quorum sensing activities of different extracts. Monoterpene hydrocarbons (40.9%) found to be the most abundant group of constituents in the oil. Sabinene (22.8%), viridiflorol (14.7%) and α-pinene (11.40%) were the main compounds of the oil. Ethanolic extract had the highest antioxidant capacity in DPPH and ABTS assays and was the richest in polyphenols. Microdilution method revealed the strongest antibacterial activity of ethanolic extracts in comparison to other tested extracts and streptomycin. L. ochridanum oil evidenced the best antifungal potential against used micromycetes. Results of anti-quorum sensing activity assay indicated high affection of aqueous extract in reduction of PAO1 pyocianin production (18.07%).Used samples possessed slight reduction of twitching and swimming mobility. Excellent antifungal oil activity, good antioxidant, antimicrobial and anti-quorum activity of L. ochridanum extracts was found. This study shows for the first time anti-guorum sensing activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa of L. ochridanum, as well as its significant antioxidant potential. This study was conducted due to adventives of usage of natural products as efficient substitution for synthetic agents in treatment of various medical conditions.

AB  - Key message: Multivariate morphometric analyses were used for the first time to examine sexual dimorphism and shape variability of needles in natural populations of relict speciesTaxus baccataL.Abstract: Needle morphology and intraspecific variability of Taxus baccata L. were examined for the first time in Serbian natural populations (in the central Balkans). A geometric morphometric approach was used to assess size and shape variation of needles and to address questions of sexual dimorphism and phenotypic plasticity. Population-specific sexual size dimorphism was found. In the Tara population, females had larger needles than males and this was in accordance with earlier reports on T. baccata dimorphism. We found it unusual that in the other two populations, Kopaonik and Malinik, sexual size dimorphism was constrained and the sexes had needles of equal size. Multivariate analysis of needle shape revealed that the Tara population differed from the other two populations and was characterized by straighter, more symmetric needles. The absence of sexual size dimorphism and the less symmetrical shape of needles could be signs of a deviation from optimal conditions for yew in the Kopaonik and Malinik populations as regards mean annual temperature, precipitation, humidity and soil quality. There is also an indication that sexual size dimorphism in needles arises from a modification in female morphology and that female yews carry more information about climate. However, the conclusions presented in this study have certain limitations because of the small number of individuals in the Tara population (only 3 female and 4 male plants) that represent the quasi-total of adult yews at this site.

AB  - Comparative analysis of terpene diversity and differentiation of relict pines Pinus heldreichii, P. nigra, and P. peuce from the central Balkans was performed at the population level. Multivariate statistical analyses showed that the composition of needle terpenes reflects clear divergence among the pine species from different subgenera: P. peuce (subgenus Strobus) vs. P. nigra and P. heldreichii (subgenus Pinus). In addition, despite the described morphological similarities and the fact that P. nigra and P. heldreichii may spontaneously hybridize, our results indicated differentiation of their populations naturally growing in the same area. In accordance with recently proposed concept of 'flavonic evolution' in the genus Pinus, we assumed that the terpene profile of soft pine P. peuce, defined by high amounts of six monoterpenes, is more basal than those of hard pines P. nigra and P. heldreichii, which were characterized by high content levels of mainly sesquiterpenes. In order to establish precise positions of P. heldreichii, P. nigra and P. peuce within the taxonomic and phylogenetic tree, as well as develop suitable conservation strategies and future breeding efforts, it is necessary to perform additional morphological, biochemical, and genetic studies.

AB  - The essential oil, different extracts, and isolated compounds of Angelica pancicii Vandas (Apiaceae) were investigated for the first time. The GC-FID and GC-MS analyses revealed sesquiterpenoids as the main constituents of A. pancicii essential oil of aerial parts with bornyl acetate (8.08%), n-octanol (5.82%), kessane (4.26%), and β-selinene (4.26%) as the main constituents. Analysis of methanol extracts, using an HPLC-DAD/ESI-ToF-MS system, showed a total of 52 compounds in the aerial parts and 53 in the roots, indicating coumarins as the main constituents. In addition, new chromone (1) and six known furanocoumarins (2-7) were isolated from the roots and structurally elucidated by combined spectroscopic methods. The aerial part extracts exhibited higher polyphenolic contents and antioxidant activity evaluated by three radical scavenging assays. Using a microwell dilution method, the strongest antibacterial activity profiles were determined for ethanol and methanol root extracts (minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBCs) = 0.25-3.00 mg/mL), which were comparable to the activity of streptomycin (MBCs = 0.34-1.24 mg/mL), while the strongest antibacterial compound of A. pancicii was oxypeucedanin hydrate (MBCs = 0.50-8.00 mg/mL). Antifungal potential was in moderate extent, and the highest activity was obtained for root methanol extract (minimum fungicidal concentrations (MFCs) = 4.00-14.00 mg/mL). Tested sub-minimum inhibitory concentrations (subMICs) of the extracts and isolated compounds inhibited selected Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 virulence determinants. The most reduced growth of P. aeruginosa colony was in the presence of isolated oxypeucedanin. Ethanol (17.36-46.98%) and methanol (34.54-52.43%) root extracts showed higher anti-biofilm activity compared to streptomycin (49.40-88.36%) and ampicillin (56.46-92.16%).

AB  - The chemical composition, antimicrobial and antiquorum sensing activity of the essential oil of Micromeria thymifolia (Scop.) Fritsch were investigated. Limonene, piperitone epoxide and piperitenone epoxide were found as the main constituents using a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry technique. In vitro antimicrobial activity of the oil was tested against six bacterial and seven fungal strains and high antimicrobial potential was noticed. Minimum inhibitory concentration varied from 0.031 mg/mL to 0.5 mg/mL for bacterial and 0.062 mg/mL to 0.5 mg/mL for fungal strains. The antiquorum properties of the essential oil were evaluated on Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1. The oil was tested at subMIC concentrations for anti-quorum sensing activity. The analyses on quorum-sensing functions have been carried out by evaluating twitching and swarming of bacterial cultures and the total amount of pyocyanin production produced by P. aeruginosa. This study showed that M. thymifolia essential oil exhibited antiquorum sensing activity and may be used as an antipathogenic drug.

Minimum inhibitory concentration varied from 0.031 mg/mL to 0.5 mg/mL for bacterial and 0.062 mg/mL to 0.5 mg/mL for fungal strains. The antiquorum properties of the essential oil were evaluated on Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1. The oil was tested at subMIC concentrations for anti-quorum sensing activity. The analyses on quorum-sensing functions have been carried out by evaluating twitching and swarming of bacterial cultures and the total amount of pyocyanin production produced by P. aeruginosa. This study showed that M. thymifolia essential oil exhibited antiquorum sensing activity and may be used as an antipathogenic drug.",

AB  - The essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation from the aerial parts
   of Artemisia judaica L., Artemisia herbaalba Asso. and Artemisia
   arborescens L. (cultivated) from Libya, were analyzed by GC and GC-MS.
   The antimicrobial properties were determined using the broth
   microdilution method against eight bacterial species: Bacillus cereus
   (clinical isolate), Micrococcus flavus (ATCC10240), Listeria
   monocytogenes (NCTC7973), Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC6538), Escherichia
   coli (ATCC35210), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC27853), Salmonella
   typhimurium (ATCC13311), Enterobacter cloacae (human isolates) and eight
   fungal species: Aspergillus niger (ATCC6275), A. ochraceus (ATCC12066),
   A. versicolor (ATCC11730), A. fumigatus (ATCC1022), Penicillium
   ochrochloron (ATCC9112), P. funiculosum (ATCC10509), Trichoderma viride
   (IAM5061) and Candida albicans (human isolate). The major constituents
   of A. arborescens oil were sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (47.4\%).
   Oxygenated monoterpenes were the dominant constituents in the A. judaica
   and A. herba-alba oils (54.2\% and 77.3\%, respectively). Camphor
   (24.7\%) and chamazulene (20.9\%) were the major components in the
   essential oil of A. arborescens, chrysanthenone (20.8\%),
   cis-chrysanthenyl acetate (17.6\%) and cis-thujone (13.6\%) dominated in
   the A. herba-alba oil, and the major constituents in the A. judaica oil
   were piperitone (30.21\%) and cis-chrysanthenol (9.1\%). The best
   antimicrobial activity was obtained for A. judaica oil and the lowest
   effect was noticed in A. arborescens oil. The effect of the tested oils
   was higher against Gram (+) than Gram (-) bacteria. All three oils
   showed the best antibacterial activity against Listeria monocytogenes
   and the lowest against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli,
   Enterobacter cloacae, compared to streptomycin and ampicillin. All three
   oils showed better antifungal activities than ketoconazole, except A.
   arborescens oil against Aspergillus niger.

AB  - Due to the current lack of nuclear microsatellites (simple sequence
   repeats SSRs) specifically developed for Pinus nigra, an important
   European coniferous species, we cross-species amplified 12 EST-SSRs
   (expressed sequence tagged SSRs) developed for other Pinus species in P.
   nigra in order to delineate loci which can be used for assessing levels
   of genetic diversity and genetic structuring in this species. We
   amplified these loci in individuals from seven populations from the
   central Balkans representing four recognized infraspecific taxa of P.
   nigra (ssp. nigra, var. gocensis, ssp. pallasiana, and var. banatica).
   Contrary to expectations on high transferability of EST-SSRs into
   related species, only three out of 12 tested loci were successfully
   amplified in P. nigra, but they displayed lack/low levels of
   polymorphism or generated multilocus amplification products. Thus, our
   estimates on levels of genetic diversity (HE = 0.183) and genetic
   differentiation (F-ST = 0.007) were based on variability of a single
   locus harboring four alleles only and they should be taken with
   cautions. Our study highlights the need for the development of
   high-resolution molecular markers, such as co-dominant genic or genomic
   SSRs or predominantly biallelic SNPs, or utilization of anonymous
   dominant markers, such as AFLPs, for genotyping in P. nigra.

AB  - Pinus nigra J.F. Arnold, European black pine, is a typical component of
   Mediterranean and sub-Mediterranean coniferous forests with highly
   fragmentary distribution. Western Mediterranean populations of this
   species have been studied genetically to date, while eastern populations
   from the central Balkans, which are larger and more abundant, are still
   genetically understudied. We analyzed seven populations of P. nigra
   representing all infraspecific taxa recognized within the central
   Balkans (subspecies nigra with varieties nigra and gocensis Dordevic;
   and subspecies pallasiana (Lamb.) Holmboe with varieties pallasiana and
   banatica (Endl.) Georgescu et Ionescu), with three chloroplast
   microsatellites (cpDNA SSRs) and one mitochondrial (mtDNA) locus.
   Although our molecular data failed to support circumscription of studied
   infraspecific taxa, we found that genetic patterns at both genomes are
   in accordance with those found previously in westward populations of
   this species, that is - exceptionally high levels of genetic diversity
   (H-T = 0.949) and low genetic differentiation (G(ST) = 0.024) at the
   cpDNA level, and moderate levels of genetic diversity (H-T = 0.357) and
   genetic differentiation (G(ST) = 0.358) at the mtDNA level. Based on
   genealogical relations of mtDNA types currently present in Balkans' and
   Iberian/African populations, we inferred that the ancestral gene pool of
   P. nigra already harbored polymorphism at position 328 prior to the
   divergence to two lineages currently present in westward and eastward
   parts of the species range distribution. Subsequent occurrence of three
   mutations, which distinguish these two lineages, suggests their
   long-term isolation.

AB  - This study was undertaken to determine the antioxidant and antimicrobial
   effect of essential oil and extracts of Echinophora sibthorpiana Guss.
   (fam. Apiaceae) collected in Macedonia. The chemical composition of E.
   sibthorpiana essential oil was characterized by the presence of methyl
   eugenol (60.40\%), p-cymene (11.18\%) and a-phellandrene (10.23\%). The
   free radical scavenging activity of extracts and essential oil was
   evaluated by DPPH and ABTS assays. The aqueous extract of aerial parts
   exhibited the strongest scavenging activity (IC50=1.67 mg/ml); results
   of the ABTS test showed that the most effective was the ethanol extract
   of aerial parts (1.11 mg vit. C/g). The essential oil showed stronger
   antioxidant activity compared to hydroxyanisole, ascorbic acid and
   quercetin that were used in the DPPH and ABTS tests, respectively. The
   total phenolic and flavonoid concentrations in the extracts ranged
   between 38.65-60.72 mg GA/g, and 3.15-19.00 mg Qu/g, respectively. The
   antimicrobial properties of the extracts and essential oil were
   investigated using a micro-well dilution technique against human
   pathogenic strains. The results were comparable with the effects of the
   positive controls, streptomycin and fluconazole. These findings indicate
   that E. sibthorpiana extracts and oil can be used in preventive
   treatments and as an alternative for synthetic preservatives.
