Iris setosa

Abstract: mainly common to Japan and North America are presented. The examples given here are the groups of Anemone hepatica, Rosa acicularis, Lathyrus palustris, Ledum palustre, Triglochin maritimum, Adoxa moschatellina, Iris setosa, Cryptotaenia canadensis, etc. It is manifest that the mode of geographical variation is different in the several plant groups concerned, so its significance is not uniform, and different groups have to be treated in different ways. In Anemone hepatica, tetraploid plants have been found only in Japan, and the pattern of their pollen grains is different from that of common diploids. In several groups, highest polyploids have been recorded in Japan, while many diploid species also occur there. These facts can be explained by the antiquity of the flora as well as the complicated past history and the diversity of the habitats under the present environmental conditions of Japan.

Abstract: Genetic variability of Iris setosa Pall. ex Link. was studied by the RAPD method. Plants from three different habitats were compared by 135 loci revealed with eight arbitrary primers. The three plant accessions all exhibited a high level of polymorphism, and each was characterized by different frequencies of polymorphic fragments, which probably reflected the geographic isolation of the analyzed populations. The average level of polymorphism detected was 35%.

Abstract: The overview provides information about places of natural habitat, Botanical description, chemical composition, information about the use of pharmaceuticals, medicinal plants of representatives Iris L.In official and folk medicine uses the leaves, rhizomes and roots of Iris lactea Pall., Iris pseudacorus L., Iris germanica L., Iris florentina L., Iris pallida Lam., Iris sibirica L., Iris setosa Pall., Iris ensata Tnunb. in the form of fees, medical and cosmetic products. On the basis of comprehensive studies of medicinal plants of Iris lactea, held in Saint-Petersburg chemical-pharmaceutical Academy, created and tested unique drugs preventive action "Viton" and "Latter". NGO "VILAR" currently available "Alpizarin" (FS 42-2843 - 92). Received a patent for inventions where the use of callus culture I. sibirica, as an alternative method of obtaining medicinal plant materials to produce essential oil. The proposed method enhances the quality of essential oil, a significant increase in the output of iron, reducing the cost of the resulting product, the possibility of continuous cultivation of tissues regardless of environmental conditions, the expansion of the resource base. Survey data will serve as a basis for further study of the mineral composition of physiologically active substances, pharmacological effectiveness data Iris L. and development of biotechnology receipt of a new kind of medicinal plant resources of the Russian Federation, as a source of creating therapeutic and prophylactic drugs in modern medicine.
