Background The roots of Impatiens rothii has been used as a traditional remedy for painful conditions, rheumatism, isthmus and crural aches. However, the analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties of this plant have yet to be scientifically confirmed. The purpose of this study was to explore possible analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities 80% methanolic root extract of Impatiens rothii . Methods To obtain the crude extract, the roots of Impatiens rothii that had been dried and ground up were macerated in 80% methanol. The analgesic activity was determined using acetic acid-induced writhing and hot plate tests in mice, whereas the anti-inflammatory activity was analyzed using carrageenan-induced paw edema model in rats. The extract was orally administered at a dose of 100, 200 and 400 mg/kg. Results All tested doses of Impatiens rothii extract showed significant analgesic activity (p<0.05) at observations of 30 to 120 minutes compared to the negative control in the hot plate test. In acetic acid-induced writhing test all tested doses of the 80% methanol extract of Impatiens rothii significantly (p < 0.001) reduced the number of writhing. In comparison to the control group, all tested doses displayed a significant decrease in paw edema, which appeared 2–5 hours after induction (p<0.05). Conclusion From the results of this study, it can be stated that 80% methanolic extract of Impatiens rothii possessed substantial analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities, hence providing scientific basis for the use of this plant in the treatment of pain and inflammatory diseases.

“…are morphologically diverse in their flower structure including species with large flowers of bright colours (Kim et al, 2015;Janssens et al, 2022). Therefore, it is not surprising that some Impatiens species are cultivated worldwide as bedding and potted plants (Luo et al, 2020). Among the species of Impatiens there are ornamental plants of global economic importance that grow well in the temperate climate of Europe.…”

Himalayan balsam (Impatiens glandulifera Royle) belongs to invasive alien species of European Union concern. Acquisition of the new molecular data from a geographical point of view might be valuable getting ideas about the nowadays invasion steps of I. glandulifera to more northern and eastern parts of the Europe, the source population(s) in the local scale as well as for elucidation of the patterns of the spread of alien species in Lithuania. In the period of 2010-2019, 95 sites of I. glandulifera were recorded in Lithuania. The present study was aimed at evaluation of genetic diversity at microsatellite loci of Lithuanian populations of I. glandulifera. For molecular analysis employing 9 microsatellite (simple sequence repeats, SSR) markers, a total of 20 Lithuanian populations of I. glandulifera (15 individuals in each) were used. Allelic richness (A R ) ranged from 1.1 to 1.39 per population, and the expected heterozygosity (H E ) ranged from 0.10 to 0.39 per one. No significant correlation (according to Mantel test) between the geographic distances and genetic differentiation was determined between the Lithuanian populations of I. glandulifera. AMOVA showed that variability within the populations (56.2%) was higher than that among the populations (43.7%). According to the principal coordinate analysis (PCoA), three principal axes explained 60% of the total genetic variation of populations. Significant results were obtained when the populations were grouped according to the five geographical areas of Lithuania: variation among the groups comprised 5.73% of the total variation. Bayesian clustering analysis indicated the highest ΔK values at K = 12, and the next highest value was K = 3. It may indicate the multiple introductions of I. glandulifera to Lithuania.

“…On the other hand, genus Impatiens is not deeply studied at the molecular level. No whole-genome sequencing data are available, only six chloroplast genomes have been sequenced so far (34)(35)(36)(37)(38)(39) and recently short data report for leaf transcriptome of Impatience balsamina was published (40). A combination of broad ecological and genetic research has unique potential to elucidate the importance of environmental factors in species differentiation processes.…”

Impatiens is a genus containing more than 1000 species. Thanks to its size, it is a unique system for studying species diversification in natural populations. This study focused on the characterization of novel transcriptomes from seven Impatiens species originating from Nepal. Leave transcriptome of Impatines balsamina L. , I. racemosa DC. , I. bicornuta Wall , I. falcifer Hook , I. devendrae Pusalkar, I. scullyi Hook and I. scabrida DC were sequenced and compared. Reads were de novo assembled and aligned to 92 035-226 081 contigs. We identified 14 728 orthology groups shared among all the species and 3 020 which were unique to a single species. In single species, 2536-3009 orthology groups were under selection from which 767 were common for all species. Six of the seven investigated species shared 77% of gene families with I. bicornuta being the most distinct species. Specific gene families involved in response to different environmental stimuli were closely described. Impatiens bicornuta selection profile shared selection on zing finger protein structures and flowering regulation and stress response proteins with the other investigated species. Overall, the study showed substantial similarity in patterns of selections on transcribed genes across the species suggesting similar evolutionary pressures. This suggests that the species group may have evolved via adaptive radiation.
