Centaurea thracica (Janka) Hayek is a plant common in southern Bulgaria. The inflorescences were collected during June and September 2021, while their seeds were obtained in September 2021. The chemical and lipid composition of the inflorescences during the vegetation process of the plant were established. A significant decrease in total proteins (from 8.7 to 7.4%), glyceride oils (2.0–1.7%), and ash (4.5–4.2%) content was observed, while the amount of carbohydrates (72.3–77.2%) and fibers (28.7–35.8%) increased. During the vegetation of the plant, the content of oleic and linoleic acids increased up to 2–3 times, while the level of palmitic acid decreased. The lipids from the seeds were rich in oleic (53.0%) and palmitic (36.2%) acids. The tocopherol content in the oils of the inflorescences during vegetation increased from 58 to 110 mg/kg, and the content in the oil from the seeds was 260 mg/kg. The phospholipid content decreased during vegetation, and differences were observed in the composition between the inflorescences and the seeds. The high content of oleic acid, linoleic acid, tocopherols, and phospholipids determine the nutritional and biological value of the oils isolated from Centaurea thracica, and contribute to their potential use in various directions.

MACROFUNGI ,EDIBLE fungi ,NUMBERS of species ,FUNGI ,EDIBLE mushrooms ,COASTS - Abstract
This article attempts to summarize the available data on wild edible macromycetes in the regions Strandzha and the Black Sea coast in connection with the clarification of ethnomycology. The total number of registered species of edible mushrooms for both areas is 105. The species Boletus caucasicus Singer ex Alessio; Boletus luridiformis Rostk. var. luridiformis and Laccaria bicolor (Maire) P.D. were noted only for the region of the Black Sea coast. The species composition, ecological-trophic structure and seasonality of edible mushrooms are briefly discussed. A list of 14 macroscopic edible fungi with conservation significance for the mycota of the two territories, assessed with the latest IUCN criteria, is given. Critically Endangered (CR) according to the Red List of fungi in Bulgaria and the Red Data Book of the Republic of Bulgaria was Boletus caucasicus Singer ex Alessio. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Extracts from medicinal plants are widely used in the treatment and prevention of different diseases. Micromeria frivaldszkyana is a Balkan endemic species with reported antioxidant and antimicrobial characteristics; however, its phytochemical composition is not well defined. Here, we examined the metabolome of M. frivaldszkyana by chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS), ultra-performance liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS-MS), and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Amino acids, organic acids, sugars, and sugar alcohols were the primary metabolites with the highest levels in the plant extract. Detailed analysis of the sugar content identified high levels of sucrose, glucose, mannose, and fructose. Lipids are primary plant metabolites, and the analysis revealed triacylglycerols as the most abundant lipid group. Potassium (K), magnesium (Mg), zinc (Zn), and calcium (Ca) were the elements with the highest content. The results showed linarin, 3-caffeoil-quinic acid, and rosmarinic acid, as well as a number of polyphenols, as the most abundant secondary metabolites. Among the flavonoids and polyphenols with a high presence were eupatorin, kaempferol, and apigenin—compounds widely known for their bioactive properties. Further, the acute toxicity and potential anti-inflammatory activity of the methanolic extract were evaluated in Wistar rats. No toxic effects were registered after a single oral application of the extract in doses of between 200 and 5000 mg/kg bw. A fourteen-day pre-treatment with methanolic extract of M. frivaldszkyana in doses of 250, 400, and 500 mg/kg bw induced anti-inflammatory activity in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd hours after carrageenan injection in a model of rat paw edema. This effect was also present in the 4th hour only in the group treated with a dose of 500 mg/kg. In conclusion, M. frivaldszkyana extract is particularly rich in linarin, rosmarinic acid, and flavonoids (eupatorin, kaempferol, and apigenin). Its methanolic extract induced no toxicity in male Wistar rats after oral application in doses of up to 5000 mg/kg bw. Additionally, treatment with the methanolic extract for 14 days revealed anti-inflammatory potential in a model of rat paw edema on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd hours after the carrageenan injection. These results show the anti-inflammatory potential of the plant, which might be considered for further exploration and eventual application as a phytotherapeutic agent. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Marrubium species have been used since ancient times as food additives and curative treatments. Their phytochemical composition and various pharmacological activities were the focus of a number of scientific investigations but no comprehensive metabolome profiling to identify the numerous primary and secondary metabolites has been performed so far. This study aimed to generate a comprehensive picture of the total metabolite content of two Marrubium species—M. peregrinum and M. friwaldskyanum—to provide detailed information about the main primary and secondary metabolites. In addition, the elemental composition was also evaluated. For this purpose, non-targeted metabolomic analyses were conducted using GC-MS, UPLC-MS/MS and ICP-MS approaches. Nearly 500 compounds and 12 elements were detected and described. The results showed a strong presence of phenolic acids, flavonoids and their glucosides, which are generally of great interest due to their various pharmacological activities. Furthermore, tissue-specific analyses for M. friwaldskyanum stem, leaves and flowers were carried out in order to outline the sources of potentially important bioactive molecules. The results generated from this study depict the Marrubium metabolome and reveal its dual scientific importance—from one side, providing information about the metabolites that is fundamental and vital for the survival of these species, and from the other side, defining the large diversity of secondary substances that are a potential source of phytotherapeutic agents.

- Abstract
Studies on the surface-active agents added during the cultivation process proved their effect on the synthesized bioproducts. The biosynthesis and accumulation of exopolysaccharide and biomass by Antarctic producer Cryptococcus laurentii AL65 were studied in submerged cultivation using different carbon sources in the culture medium added to a one-percent concentration (pentoses, hexoses and oligosaccharides). Sucrose was chosen as the most appropriate carbon source for the cell growth and extracellular polymer biosynthesis. Absorption of sucrose by a strain producer was monitored and the residual sugars were traced in the dynamics of the fermentation process. The effect of polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate (Tween 80) on the cell growth and the accumulation of the synthesized biopolymer were studied for the first time with the Antarctic producer. The optimal increase in the amount of accumulated exopolysaccharide was recorded at a concentration of 6% Tween 80 at 24 h from the start of fermentation. The surfactant treatment contributed to an increase in the total amount of lipids in the cell, to the increased [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Anatomy ,Marrubium frivaldskyanum - Abstract
In the Bulgarian flora, the genus Marrubium L. is represented by four species, of which M. frivaldskyanum is a rare species and Bulgarian endemic. The study presents information about the anatomy of leaves and stems of M. frivaldskyanum, collected from the floristic region of the Rhodopes Mts (western). The leaves show bifacial structure, with mesophyll which is differentiated as palisade and spongy parenchyma. The stomata are of anomocytic and diacytic types, located primarily on the abaxial epidermis. The leaf and stem surfaces are covered with two types of trichomes: non-glandular (unicellular and multicellular) and glandular. The cross-section of the stem represents the typical anatomy structure of dicotyledons. In terms of the shape, it is quadrangular, and collenchyma tissue can be seen under the epidermis in the area of the edges.

Background: Extracts obtained from different Betonica species have been shown to possess important biological properties. The present study aimed to investigate the cytotoxicity, antitumor and immunomodulatory potential of the endemic plant Betonica bulgarica (Lamiaceae) and thus, reveal new aspects of its biological activity. Methods: Methanolic extract obtained from inflorescences was analyzed for cytotoxicity against mammalian cell lines. The antitumor potential of the sample was determined using human cervical and lung adenocarcinoma cells (HeLa and A549). Programmed cell death-inducing effects against HeLa cells and peripheral blood lymphocytes, as well as immunomodulatory properties of the extract were determined by flow cytometry analysis. Results: The research results demonstrated that the extract has significant inhibitory potential against HeLa cells (mean IC
50 value 119.2 μg/mL). The sample selectively induced apoptotic death in tumor cells. Cytotoxic effects towards mouse cell lines were detected following treatment with high concentrations of Betonica bulgarica extract (200 and 250 μg/mL). Twenty-four-hour ex vivo incubation of peripheral blood leucocytes in growth medium containing plant extract induced prominent effects in distinct immune cell populations. They included elevated levels of CD25+ and CD56+ T cells' lymphocytes, particularly CD4+ CD25+ and CD8+ CD56+ cells. Conclusions: The present study demonstrates that Betonica bulgarica inflorescence extract possesses potential beneficial antitumor and immunomodulatory activity and could serve as a source of bioactive compounds with biomedical application.

The present study presents data on the anatomical characteristics of the leaf and stem in Marrubium friwaldskyanum and Marrubium peregrinum. The leaves in both species are amphistomatic with diacytic and anomocytic stomata. The leaf lamina shows differentiation of palisade and spongy tissue, and collateral vascular bundles. Non-glandular and glandular trichomes have been found on the epidermis of the leaves and stem. The non-glandular trichomes are unicellular linear and multicellular branched. Glandular trichomes are peltate, with a single-celled or two-celled structure. There is a difference between the two species in terms of the width of the epidermal cells of the stem, the thickness of the cortex, the thickness of the xylem and the phloem in the stem. The established differences in the anatomical features can be useful in future taxonomic studies within the genus Marrubium. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Instrumentation And Photography - Abstract
An analyte, viscosity, or temperature sensing apparatus for operative arrangement within a time-varying magnetic field, including a sensor with an outer surface that is chemically, frictionally, or thermally responsive and adhered to a base magnetostrictive element, and a receiver to measure a first and second value for magneto-elastic emission intensity of the sensor taken at, respectively, a first and second interrogation frequency. A change in mass or a change in material stiffness of the sensor due to the responsiveness, the viscosity and mass density of a fluid therearound, or the temperature, can be identified. The receiver, alternatively, measures a plurality of successive values for magneto-elastic emission intensity of the sensor taken over an operating range of successive interrogation frequencies to identify a value for the sensor's magneto-elastic resonant frequency (a fundamental frequency or harmonic thereof). Several sensors in an ordered array will provide a package of information.

Instrumentation And Photography - Abstract
A pressure sensing apparatus for operative arrangement within an environment, having: a sensor comprising a hermetically-sealed receptacle, at least one side of which has an flexible membrane to which a magnetically hard element is attached. Enclosed within the receptacle is a magnetostrictive element that vibrates in response to a time-varying magnetic field. Also included is a receiver to measure a plurality of successive values for magneto-elastic emission intensity of the sensor taken over an operating range of successive interrogation frequencies to identify a resonant frequency value for the sensor. Additional features include: (a) the magnetically hard element may be adhered to an inner or outer side of, or embedded within, the membrane; (b) the magnetostrictive element can include one or more of a variety of different pre-formed, hardened regions; (c) the magneto-elastic emission may be a primarily acoustic or electromagnetic emission; and (d) in the event the time-varying magnetic field is emitted as a single pulse or series of pulses, the receiver unit can detect a transitory time-response of the emission intensity of each pulse (detected after a threshold amplitude value for the transitory time-response is observed). A Fourier transform of the time-response can yield results in the frequency domain. Also, an associated method of sensing pressure of an environment is included that uses a sensor having a magnetostrictive element to identify a magneto-elastic resonant frequency value therefore. Using the magneto-elastic resonant frequency value identified, a value for the pressure of the environment can be identified.

The current study provides detailed information about Rumex kerneri Borbás in the flora of Bulgaria. The data about this species in the floristic literature is contradictory and uncompleted. The morphologically closely allied species R. cristatus DC. и R. patientia L. misleads in the determination of the species. Both species are used as a referent to establish the discrete morphological characters and metrics. The current study provides detailed information about pollen and fruit morphology, leaf epidermis, and karyology of Rumex kerneri Borbás in the flora of Bulgaria. The data about this species in the floristic literature is contradictory and uncompleted. The most reliable characters in the differentiation between R. cristatus are R. patientia the reduced number of flowers in a cluster of R. kerneri, the development of only one tubercle in the mature valves, and the abaxial surface of the leaf blade. Also, the pollen morphology (light and scanning electron microscopy) was confirmed in this study. The somatic chromosome number of the species 2n = 80 is also given. This is the first chromosome number for the taxon from Bulgaria and confirms the earlier reports. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Floristic studies have been carried out in the Upper Thracian Lowland in 14 railway stations: Dimitrovgrad, Knizhovnik, Malevo, Maslinovo, Most, Stara Zagora, Yabalkovo, Uzundzhovo, Harmanli, Skobelevo, Karadzhalovo, Stalevo, Plovdiv and Haskovo during the period 2017 to 2019. A total of 267 species, 174 genera and 53 families of higher vascular plants were identified. Alien and invasive species make up for a relatively high percentage of 9.4% in the railway flora. This indicates that the railway network plays an important role in the penetration and further dispersal of alien species in Bulgarian. The long-distance spread of railway areas is most common with passing trains and people moving. The largest number of alien species were found at stations with more intensive movement of passengers and cargo, where maneuvers are performed, stay of freight trains, such as Dimitrovgrad, Haskovo, Plovdiv, Stara Zagora. The alien species found at several of the studied railway stations were: Convolvulus arvensis L., Erigeron canadensis L., Fallopia convolvulus (L.) Á. Löve, Amaranthus hybridus L., Amorpha fruticosa L. Individual plants of strongly invasive Ambrosia artemisifolia L. have been identified in the railway station in the Haskovo City.

As producers of biomass, cyanobacteria are a major part of the phytoplankton in a large number of water basins. Due to the cyanobacterial blooms and cyanotoxins produced, these organisms are recognized as a threat and ecological risk for water bodies. Released cyanotoxins may cause death of many organisms including birds and fish. Vaya Lake is the largest natural lake in Bulgaria. It is located on the Via Pontica migration route of birds between Europe and Africa. Since 2003, the lake has been declared as a "Wetland of international importance" under the Ramsar Convention. According to the literature data from 2002-2006, the Lake is defined as highly eutrophied due to strong anthropogenic pressure, but regular monitoring of the cyanobacterial blooms and presence of cyanotoxins after this period is missing. Taking into account the importance of this unique, protected ecosystem, our aim was to make a complete ecological assessment of the present state of Lake Vaya by using the phytoplankton, with an emphasis on cyanobacterial blooms and the presence of cyanotoxins. As results of the study, we 1) characterized the phytoplankton composition qualitatively and quantitatively; 2) evaluated the ecological status of the western and eastern part of the Lake; 3) identified the potential producers of cyanotoxins; 4) observed cyanobacterial blooms and discussed the influence of macrophytes on their spread; 5) measured the concentrations of the cyanotoxins MCs, CYL and STXs in water samples from both parts of the Lake. Our results indicated the need for continued observation of cyanobacterial composition, blooming and the presence of cyanotoxins in Lake Vaya. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Cyanobacteria are prokaryotic, photosynthetic organisms with long evolution, cosmopolitan distribution and great biodiversity. Many cyanobacteria produce secondary metabolites with hepatotoxic, neurotoxic or dermatotoxic effects, called cyanotoxins. Bloom-forming cyanobacteria can reach high concentrations in water basins and cause death of fish, birds and domestic animals, which determines them as ecological and health risk factors. Their simple morphology and high degree of variability make their taxonomic classification problematic. Currently, the classification of Cyanobacteria is subject to a complete revision. There are several systems for classification of these organisms, but the polyphasic approach, which combines morphological, ultrastructural and biochemical features with a leading role of the molecular-genetic markers, is considered to be most applicable for taxonomy of the cyanoprokaryotes. Searching for and using of new molecular markers different from the widely used 16S rRNA gene sequences results in more precise determination of cyanobacterial strains with unclear taxonomic position. The correct taxonomic position and identification of the cyanobacterial strains is very important for all studies related to the biological activity of cyanobacteria, their biotechnological application or in the management and monitoring of water. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the Light-Repressed Protein (LRP) can be used as a new molecular marker for taxonomic purposes within Cyanobacteria. We have performed phylogenetic analyses of cyanobacterial strains based on LRP gene sequences and amino acid sequences by using minimum evolution (ME), maximum parsimony (MP), maximum-likelihood (ML), and neighbor-joining (NJ) methods. For comparison, we have used the same strains and methods to generate phylogenetic trees based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences. Our results showed that LRP could be used as a suitable molecular marker in resolving different phylogenetic clades within Cyanobacteria at generic level and above. Phylogenetic trees based on the LRP showed that most of the cyanobacterial species/strains belonging to different genera are grouped in separate clades supported by high bootstrap values. The use of LRP as a molecular marker allows to group cyanobacteria according to their habitat (marine or freshwater). For example, LRP-based phylogeny of Prochlorococcus marinus showed clustering of species according to their ecological adaptation to high or low light intensities. The comparison between the LRP trees and the 16S phylogenetic tree showed that the LRP is more accurate molecular marker in resolving phylogenetic relationships within Cyanobacteria at generic and species level than the conserved 16S rRNA gene sequence.

The current status of a lake can be evaluated via monitoring based on biological quality elements. Reference aquatic flora communities reflect pristine situations that exist or would exist with no or very minor disturbances from anthropogenic pressure. Phytoplankton and macrophytes were studied in 10 national lake types (L1, L3, L4, L5, L7, L8, L11, L12, L13, L17). Type-specific taxa and groups character in reference and near reference conditions were described. Abiotic parameters (water chemistry) were also discussed. Descriptor species from 25 FGs were registered in phytoplankton communities in lakes in reference and near reference conditions. Dinoflagellates (L0) cryptomonads (Y) and various benthic/periphytic taxa (MP) were distributed in almost all lake types. Character descriptor species and FGs were reported for lake types L1 and L5. Motile mixotrophic dinoflagellates (L0) and cryptomonads (Y) had highest relative biovolume in ultraoligotrophic alpine lakes (L1) due to their ability to utilize effectively scarce trophic resources. Motile euglenoids (W1, W2), small-celled colonial Cyanobacteria (K), green algae and small cryptomonads (X1, X2), coccal green algae (J) and meroplanctonic diatoms (MP) dominated phytoplankton community in riverine marshes (L5). Recorded FGs from natural lakes were also common in and their analog among heavy modified water bodies: shallow lowland reservoirs L17. Phytoplankton communities of L13 (small and medium-size semi-mountain reservoirs in the Eastern Balkans) were more similar with those of L11 (large deep reservoirs) and mountain L1, L3. Further surveys are needed in order to classify specific features of phytoplankton communities in L3, L4, L7, L11 and L12. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The floristic composition of vascular plants of three moisture zones, along the river Maritsa - "Rice-field Plovdiv", protected zone (PZ) "Rice-field Tsalapitsa" and protected area (PA) "Martvitsata Zlato Pole", was described in terms of phytogeographic elements, biological spectrum, conservation value and anthropogenic impact. The predominant floristic elements in the three areas were European-Asiatic (Eur-As) and European-Mediterranean (Eur-Med). The biological spectrum was limited to 3 life forms: predominant Therophytes (Th), followed by Hemicryptophytes (H) and a small percentage - Phanerophytes (Ph). Fifteen of the identified species have conservation status and they are included in the "IUCN Red List of Threatened Species" with the category "least concern". The anthropogenic impact on the floristic composition of the three areas was expressed in the presence of a large number of weed, ruderal, alien and invasive species. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

CHRYSOPHYCEAE ,CYANOBACTERIA ,CYANOBACTERIAL blooms ,SPECIES ,DINOFLAGELLATES - Abstract
Cyanobacteria are photosynthetic prokaryotes with cosmopolitan distribution. They are major producers of primary biomass and free oxygen in most of the freshwater and marine biomes on the planet. Under certain conditions of the environment, these organisms can evolve massively and cause the so-called "water blooms". Very often these blooms are toxic due to the ability of some cyanobacteria to produce dangerous toxins (cyanotoxins) with hepatotoxic, neurotoxic or dermatotoxic effects. This determines the cyanobacteria as an ecological risk for the aquatic ecosystems as well as a threat for the health of animals and humans. Climate changes also lead to an increase in the percentage of cyanobacterial blooms. Therefore, the investigation of the species composition of this group in the Bulgarian reservoirs, the tracking of the blooms frequencies as well as the assessment of their toxic potential is of great importance. Unfortunately, such data at this stage are scarce. This study presents data on the species composition and toxic potential of Cyanobacteria during the summer months of 2017 in five reservoirs (Batak, Dospat, Shiroka polyana, Golyam Beglik and Krichim dams) in the Western Rhodope Mountain. During the investigation period, except the representatives of Cyanobacteria, seven algal phyla (Chlorophyta, Bacillariophyta, Euglenophyta, Dinoflagellata, Cryptophyta, Chrysophyta and Xantophyta) were also found in the dams. The frequency and percentage of cyanobacteria were reported. A taxonomic list of the determined cyanobacterial species is given for each water body. In addition, a quantitative characteristic for each species (density and biomass) was performed. By using ELISA tests for cyanotoxins we have analyzed the presence of microcystins/nodularins (MCs/Nod) and saxitoxins (STXs). Cyanotoxins were found in four of the studied water basins - Dospat Dam, Batak Dam, Shiroka polyana Dam and Krichim Dam. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

PHYCOERYTHRIN ,CYANOBACTERIA ,PHYCOBILISOMES ,PHOTOSYNTHESIS ,ALLOPHYCOCYANIN - Abstract
Cyanobacteria are unique prokaryotes, which are capable to perform oxygenic photosynthesis. Within these organisms, phycobilisomes (PBS) act as an antenna of the photosynthetic pigment apparatus. Phycobilisomes contain several phycobiliproteins (PBP): phycoerythrin (PE), phycocyanin (PC), allophycocyanin (APC) and phycoerythrocyanin (PEC). The application of phycobiliproteins in the biotechnology, food industry and medicine during the last years is rapidly increasing. The aim of our study was to assess the qualitative and quantitative content of phycoerythrin, phycocyanin, allophycocyanin and phycoerythrocyanin in 14 cyanobacterial strains kept in Plovdiv Algal Culture Collection (PACC) and 4 strains purchased from the Culture Collection of Autotrophic Organisms (CCALA). Our data demonstrated that three strains of Microcoleus autumnalis (PACC 5505, PACC 5522 and PACC 5527) have high potential to produce phycoerythrins (0.132, 0.201 and 0.136 mg/mL, respectively). Similarly, one Microcoleus autumnalis strain (PACC 5522) and one strain of Leptolyngbya boryana (CCALA 084) are suitable for biotechnological production of phycocyanins (0.051 and 0.264 mg/mL, respectively) as well as allophycocyanins (0.102 and 0.171 mg/mL, respectively). In addition, the data about the pigment content could be used as a biochemical marker for taxonomic purposes within the group. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The biodiversity of genus
Carduus in Bulgaria is grossly under-studied with modern methods, which leads to unclear status of species and hampers the assessment of their habitats and conservation status. In this study, we used the variability of internal transcribed spacers (ITS) to investigate the biodiversity ofCarduus species collected from different floristic regions of Bulgaria. Thirty-three samples were processed. Among the studied species,C. acanthoides exhibited the highest ITS variability (eight single nucleotide polymorphisms were found). High ITS variability was also found inC. crispus andC. hamulosus , demonstrating that some of the localCarduus species possesses unique genetic diversity, which can serve as source for future divergence of new forms and subspecies. For each species, unique nucleotides suitable as molecular taxonomy markers were identified. However,C. nutans andC. thoermeri displayed completely identical ITS sequences, which is in agreement with all ITS sequences of these species collected elsewhere in the world and deposited in the NCBI database. After careful analyses of both molecular and morphological data, we propose to restoreC. nutans andC. thoermeri as one species with two subspecies. Namely,Carduus nutans subsp.nutans andCarduus nutans subsp.thoermeri . We recommend diameter of capitulum, length of peduncle, width of peduncle and width of bract as diagnostic features of taxonomic significance for distinguishing the two subspecies.

The object of the study was to investigate the natural habitats in the forest-free zone of Malusha Peak, located on the main watershed ridge of the Shipka part of the Central Balkan Mountain range, part of the protected area (PA) "Bulgarka" BG0000399 and PA "Central Balkan - Buffer" BG0001493. According to the EUNIS classification used for making the analyses, seven types of habitats were described in the studied area, including 5 grasslands, 1 shrubland and 1 rocky. According to Annex 1 of the Bulgarian Biological Diversity Act, Annex 1 of the Directive 92/43/EEC and the Red Book of Bulgaria, Volume 3, five of the habitats have a conservation status, among them 6110* Rupicolous calcareous or basophilic grasslands of Alysso-Sedion albi, being a priority for habitat conservation. The largest part of the studied area (about 95%) is occupied by the habitats E2.33 Balkan mountain hay meadows and E 4.438 Oro-Moesian calciphile stripped grasslands. The habitats Oro-Moesian calciphile stripped grasslands, as well as the H3.2A13 Balkan Range of the calcicolous chasmophyte communities, are characterized by a high degree of naturalness, relic origin and a large number of endemic plant species, which makes them particularly valuable for the studied area.

The present study provides a comparative anatomical leaf analysis of Carduus nutans L. and C. thoermeri Wienm., which belong to the Asteraceae family. Bifacial leaf structure, anomocytic and anisocytic types of stomatal apparatus and two types of trichomes (multicellular covering and glandular) were found on the leaves of both species. The quantitative anatomical characteristics varied considerably, however; basing on the statistical analyses, the most significant characteristics for distinguishing the two taxa are: the number of stomata in the abaxial epidermis, the number of capitated glandular trichomes and the number of multicellular covering trichomes in the upper (adaxial) and lower (abaxial) epidermis.

MINTS (Plants) ,PLANT classification ,NUCLEOTIDE sequence ,PLANT morphology ,POLYPLOIDY in plant chromosomes - Abstract
Mentha (Nepetoideae, Lamiaceae) is a taxonomically complex genus consisting of 29 species and 11 different hybrids including a number of economically important species among them medical plants used for more than 250 years. Because of its high incidence of polyploidy, diverse morphology, high degree of chromosome number variations and interspecies hybridization, Mentha is considered to be a taxonomical challenge. In this paper, we describe cloning and sequencing of internal transcribed spacers (ITS) 1 and 2 of three mint species: Mentha aquatic L., Mentha longifolia L. (Huds) and Mentha piperita L., collected from natural habitats of Bulgaria. The applicability of ITS1 and ITS2 for molecular fingerprinting and further comparative studies, including the newly obtained ITS1 and ITS2 sequences, was tested in phylogenetic analysis of all eight Mentha species, found in Bulgarian flora.

- Abstract
In this article we will present the recent improvements in the performance of Solidly Mounted Resonator (SMR) high performance duplexer using Band2 duplexer for illustration purpose. Over the past 4 years insertion loss and rejection steepness were improved dramatically. Optimization of resonator intrinsic performance has played obviously a critical role but less expectedly the introduction of new building block (MIM capacitor) capitalizing on SMR technology has proven key for both performance improvement and size reduction. A new design approach based on the selective reduction of the effective coupling coefficient of certain resonators will be presented. We will discuss its impact on slope steepness improvement. The additional flexibility provided by this method enables as well to reduce further the impedance variation presented on the transmit path. This feature is critical to maintain high efficiency and linearity of any Power Amplifier upfront in the chain. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

The polyphasic approach is the most progressive system that has been suggested for distinguishing and phylogenetically classifying Cyanoprokaryota (Cyanobacteria/Cyanophyta). Several oscillatorialean genera (Lyngbya, Phormidium, Plectonema, and Leptolyngbya) have problematic phylogenetic position and taxonomic state because of their heterogeneity and polyphyletic nature. To accurately resolve the phylogenetic relationship of some filamentous species (Nodosilinea bijugata, Phormidium molle, Phormidium papyraceum), we have performed phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene and the phycocyanin operon (PC-IGS) by using maximum-likelihood (ML) tree inference methods. These analyses were combined with morphologi-cal re-evaluation. Our phylogenetic analyses support the taxonomic separation of genus Nodosilinea from the polyphyletic genus Leptolyngbya. Investigated Nodosilinea strains always formed a coherent genetic cluster supported with a high bootstrap value. The molecular phylogeny confirmed also the monophyly of the Wilmottia group. In addition, data reveal that although P. papyraceum is morphologically similar to Wilmottia murrayi, this species is genetically distinct. Strains from the newly formed genus Phormidesmis and some Phormidium priestleyi strains were clustered in a separate clade different from the typical Phormidium species, but without strong bootstrap support.

- Abstract
Cyanobacteria are prokaryotic organisms characterized by their ability to produce secondary metabolites with different biological activities. The aim of this work was to evaluate the in vitro and in vivo toxicity of the cosmopolitan freshwater cyanobacterium H. kuetzingii. An extract from H. kuetzingii and cyanobacterial growth media were assessed for presence of intracellular and extracellular toxins by in vitro tests using primary cell cultures from mouse kidney and fibroblasts, cell lines A549 and 3T3, a fish cell line RTgill-W1 as well as by a traditional in vivo mouse bioassay. The presence of toxicity was compared with the ELISA and HPLC data for corresponding cyanotoxins. In vitro tests showed pronounced cytotoxicity of the cyanobacterium extract and growth medium in which H. kuetzingii released potential extracellular toxic compounds as the mammalian cells were significantly more sensitive to exposure compared to the fish cells. Histopathological analyses of the liver and kidneys of treated mice showed pathological changes such as leukocyte infiltration and necrosis, changes in the proximal and distal convoluted tubules, lack of differentiation of Bowman's space, enlarged Bowman's capsules and massive hemorrhages. ELISA and HPLC analyses confirmed the presence of saxitoxins and microcystins at low concentrations. In addition, the histological analyses suggest that H. kuetzingii produces other, yet unknown toxic metabolites. Monitoring efforts are therefore required to evaluate the potential hazard for the freshwater aquatic systems and possible public health implications associated with this cyanobacterium.

The ferns Asplenium ceterach L., Asplenium scolopendrium L. and Asplenium trichomanes L. have wide application in traditional medicine worldwide. However, the scientific research on their anticancer and antibacterial properties is insufficient. The present article aims to provide more information on this topic. Extracts derived from the aerial parts of A. ceterach, A. scolopendrium and A. trichomanes were examined using a panel of in vitro assays with different bacterial and mammalian cells. The cytotoxicity and anticancer activity of the samples were analyzed by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) and Trypan blue assays with three human (A549, FL, HeLa) and three murine (3T3, TIB-71, LS48) cell lines. Inhibitory effects on the growth of Gram-positive (Bacillus cereus) and Gram-negative (Pseudomonas aeruginosa) bacteria were determined by the agar diffusion assay. Apoptosis-inducing properties of the extracts were analyzed by flow cytometry. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in extract-treated cells was investigated by ELISA. The obtained results demonstrate selective anticancer activity of all three Asplenium species. The extract from A. ceterach displayed the strongest inhibitory properties against human cervical cancer cells and bacterial cells. It induced a lower level of cytotoxicity against mouse cell lines, indicating a species-specific effect. The extract from A. trichomanes demonstrated better anticancer and antibacterial properties than the sample from A. scolopendrium. Further experiments linked the mechanism of action of A. ceterach extract with oxidative stress-inducing potential and strong proapoptotic potential against the cervical cancer cell line HeLa. A. trichomanes and A. scolopendrium extracts appeared to be potent inducers of necrotic cell death. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
