“…However, the main compounds were also shown to be involved in seductive strategies. β-Caryophyllene (34) could be involved in the preselection and attraction of pollinators (Giuliani et al, 2020c;Novaković et al, 2019). Specifically, its emission from flowers could stimulate positive feedback in honeybees as Apis cerana (Abraham et al, 2018) and A. mellifera (Giuliani et al, 2020e), as well as in non-pollinators as Vespa velutina and Bombus spp.…”

Herbal drugs are a useful source of different bioactive compounds. Asteraceae species, as the most widespread vascular plants can be used both as food and as medicine due to the great diversity of recorded chemical componentsdifferent phenolic compounds, terpenes, carotenoids, vitamins, alkaloids, etc. The Balkan Peninsula is characterized by great diversity of plants from Asteraceae family, including presence of rare and endemic species. In this review, results of the survey of chemical composition and biological activity, mainly focusing on antioxidant, antimicrobial and anticancer effects of selected Balkans' Asteraceae species were provided. In addition, information on edible plants from Asteraceae family is presented, due to growing interest for the so-called "healthy diet" and possible application of Balkans' Asteraceae species as food of high nutritional value or as a source of functional food ingredients.

“…The differentiation and development of ray and disc florets mediate the formation of various flower types in cultivated chrysanthemum varieties ( Song et al, 2018 ). In the same genetic background, the two types of florets vary substantially in their position, fertility, symmetry, organ fusion, pigment composition ( Berger et al, 2016 ; Novaković et al, 2019 ; Su et al, 2019 ). However, because of the lack of genome information, the molecular regulation mechanisms involved in the development of the two types of florets in chrysanthemum are still not fully understood.…”

Whole-transcriptome analysis of differentially expressed genes between ray and disc florets and identification of flowering regulatory genes in Chrysanthemum morifolium

Chrysanthemum morifolium has ornamental and economic values. However, there has been minimal research on the morphology of the chrysanthemum florets and related genes. In this study, we used the leaves as a control to screen for differentially expressed genes between ray and disc florets in chrysanthemum flowers. A total of 8,359 genes were differentially expressed between the ray and disc florets, of which 3,005 were upregulated and 5,354 were downregulated in the disc florets. Important regulatory genes that control flower development and flowering determination were identified. Among them, we identified a TM6 gene (CmTM6-mu) that belongs to the Class B floral homeotic MADS-box transcription factor family, which was specifically expressed in disc florets. We isolated this gene and found it was highly similar to other typical TM6 lineage genes, but a single-base deletion at the 3′ end of the open reading frame caused a frame shift that generated a protein in which the TM6-specific paleoAP3 motif was missing at the C terminus. The CmTM6-mu gene was ectopically expressed in Arabidopsis thaliana. Petal and stamen developmental processes were unaffected in transgenic A. thaliana lines; however, the flowering time was earlier than in the wild-type control. Thus, the C-terminal of paleoAP3 appears to be necessary for the functional performance in regulating the development of petals or stamens and CmTM6-mu may be involved in the regulation of flowering time in chrysanthemum. The results of this study will be useful for future research on flowering molecular mechanisms and for the breeding of novel flower types.
