“…However, in addition to IGS and introns, we identified a number of coding regions that may prove useful for Salvia phylogenetics. The four protein coding genes with highest π values identified by our study (accD, matK, ndhF, and ycf1) have all been used for phylogenetic inference (Zhang and Li 2004;Chang-Li et al 2012;Cruz et al 2013;Qian et al 2013;Luo et al 2014;Patil et al 2015;Srikulnath et al 2015;Uchoi et al 2016;Devi and Chrungoo 2017;Bengtson and Anderberg 2018;Deng et al 2018;Lei et al 2018;Satoh et al 2018;Veranso-Libalah et al 2018), but only matK and ycf1 Sytsma 2011, 2012;Hu et al 2018) have been utilized in sages.…”

Chloroplast and nuclear ribosomal cistron phylogenomics in a group of closely related sections in Salvia subg. Calosphace

Sage phylogenies have not resolved many shallow level clades within problematic Salvia subgenus Calosphace, hindered by the difficulty in finding sufficiently variable loci. We assembled fifteen chloroplast genomes and nuclear ribosomal cistrons from non-target reads of a nuclear hybrid enrichment project to assess the phylogenetic utility for a closely related group of mainly Mexican sections. Chloroplast synteny is confirmed with 10 Lamiales chloroplasts, supporting a map to reference assembly. Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge chloroplast was used as a reference for assemblies, averaging 25,970 reads with mean depth of 20.71 reads; genomes ranged from 141,451 to 150,339 bp. The S. carduacea Benth. nuclear ribosomal cistron (18S, ITS1, 5.8S, ITS2 and 26S) was used as a reference for assembly, averaging 66,387 reads and mean depth of 1508 reads. We evaluated several partitioning schemes for plastid, plastid and nrDNA and reduced sampling, to assess whether these would render the same phylogenetic inferences. Maximum likelihood inferences resulted with high bootstrap support and two main clades with interspersed species from Salvia sect. Scorodoniae: clade A with species from S. sects. Atratae and Mitratae and clade B from S. sects. Sigmoideae and Uricae. Only S. sect. Uricae is monophyletic in every analysis supporting its identity, not merged into S. sect. Scorodoniae; S. sect. Sigmoideae is inferred monophyletic only if the ribosomal DNA sequences are included. Greater resolution and higher branch support are obtained with the entire plastome and nrDNA, rather than subsampling highly variable regions; thus we recommend this approach with expanded taxon sampling, coupled with a morphological review to better solve sectional circumscription in closely related S. subgenus Calosphace species.

“…The sampled plant species were divided into two life-forms, perennial and annual according to the flora of Morocco [18][19][20]. All plant species belong to the most important groups of worldwide spontaneously distributed in the Mediterranean region [50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57]. Many authors reported their occurrence in both uncontaminated and contaminated soils, including mining sites ecosystems.…”

Screening of native plant species from mining sites can lead to identify suitable plants for phytoremediation approaches. In this study, we assayed heavy metals tolerance and accumulation in native and dominant plants growing on abandoned Pb/Zn mining site in eastern Morocco. Soil samples and native plants were collected and analyzed for As, Cd, Cu, Ni, Sb, Pb, and Zn concentrations. Bioconcentration factor (BCF), translocation factor (TF), and biological accumulation coefficient (BAC) were determined for each element. Our results showed that soils present low organic matter content combined with high levels of heavy metals especially Pb and Zn due to past extraction activities. Native and dominant plants sampled in these areas were classified into 14 species and eight families. Principal components analysis separated Artemisia herba-alba with high concentrations of As, Cd, Cu, Ni, and Pb in shoots from other species. Four plant species, namely, Reseda alba, Cistus libanotis, Stipa tenacissima, and Artemisia herba-alba showed strong capacity to tolerate and hyperaccumulate heavy metals, especially Pb, in their tissues. According to BCF, TF, and BAC, these plant species could be used as effective plants for Pb phytoextraction. Stipa tenacissima and Artemisia herba-alba are better suited for phytostabilization of Cd/Cu and Cu/Zn, respectively. Our study shows that several spontaneous and native plants growing on Pb/Zn contaminated sites have a good potential for developing heavy metals phytoremediation strategies.

“…Chiliadenus genus belongs to the Asteraceae family, which is a small genus that includes ten species mainly distributed throughout the southern edge of the Mediterranean Sea. Most of its species grow in rocky places and semidry land distinguished by pappus with double rows of hairs, the outer row is very short setae while the inner is equaling the corolla [1,2].

Chiliadenus iphionoides (Boiss. & Blanche) Brullo has been used in traditional medicine for different medical issues including stomach ailments, diabetes, male and female fertility problems, eye infection, kidney stones, and as an anti-inflammatory. Extracts of C. iphionoides have shown to exhibit useful pharmacological activities. Phytochemical studies have shown the existence of many biologically active compounds, such as essential oils, flavonoids, and phenolic compounds. This review aims to collect the published research about the traditional uses, chemical constituents, and pharmacological properties of C. iphionoides. This review showed that different extracts and active ingredients of C. iphionoides had various pharmacological properties such as anticancer, antidiabetic, antimicrobial, antioxidant, antispasmodic, and antiplatelet activities which might be due to the excitant of flavonoids and phenolic compounds. Chiliadenus iphionoides and its constituents exhibit many pharmacological properties that play a crucial role in human health, therefore, clinical trials should be conducted to study the valuable effects of the active ingredients of C. iphionoides in humans models and develop new drugs.
