Abstract:

AbstractThe distribution and succession of epiphytic and other associated lichens on blackthorn (Prunus spinosa) growing on the shingle at Dungeness is described. Some 33 epiphytic species, which exhibited a range of ecological strategies from pioneer to late colonizers, were recorded. Both the rate of change of status (age) of blackthorns and the progress of lichen colonization seemed to depend on whether the bushes were growing directly on shingle or on adjacent alluvial soil; both processes seeming to be more rapid on the former substratum. Terricolous lichens, of which 18 were recorded, ge

Abstract:

Prunus spinosa L. fruit, commonly known as blackthorn, is a rich source of bioactive compounds, including flavonoids, anthocyanins, phenolic acids, vitamins, minerals, and organic acids, which exhibit significant antioxidant and antibacterial properties. Notably, flavonoids such as catechin, epicatechin, and rutin have been reported to have protective effects against diabetes, while other flavonoids, including myricetin, quercetin, and kaempferol, exhibit antihypertensive activity. Solvent extraction methods are widely used for the extraction of phenolic compounds from plant sources, owing to

Abstract:

Blackthorn (Prunus spinosa L.) fruit is bluish-black wild fruit traditionally used in nutrition and medicine. It is recently gaining attention as a functional food and an underutilized source of bioactive compounds for application in the food and pharmaceutical industry. This study aimed to assess the health-promoting potential of blackthorn fruits from Serbia by examining their chemical composition and in vitro biological activities. Phytochemical analysis of the blackthorn fruit extracts was performed using LC-DAD-ESI-MS. The total phenolic (TPC), total flavonoid (TFC), total anthocyanin (TA

Abstract:

Background.The relevance of the research is determined by a constant striving to increase the possibilities of using rare fruit and berry crops, e.g. blackthorn, in plant breeding and the production of healthy food products. It can be achieved by scientifically based selection and evaluation of fruit taking into account their physiological, phytopathological and biochemical parameters. The purpose of the research is to expand the morphological diversity of blackthorn that combines high productivity and quality for further breeding. Materials and Methods.

Abstract:

AbstractPrunus spinosa L. (blackthorn) is used in traditional medicine as a remedy for various diseases. To establish its anticancer properties, we exposed human liver cancer cells (Hep G2) to a range of blackthorn flower extract concentrations (10-200 µg/mL) and determined cytotoxic activity with the neutral red and kenacid blue methods after 24, 48, and 72 h of incubation. Statistically significant inhibitory effects on Hep G2 cellular proliferation were observed at concentrations above 50 µg/mL (p<0.001–0.05). Cell viability was lower when determined with neutral red than kenacid blue me

Abstract:

Blackthorn (Prunus spinosa L.) is commonly used in food industry and phytotherapy. The contents of phenols, flavonoids, anthocyanins and antioxidative activity in extracts of blackthorn fruit were determined using spectrophotometric methods. The content of total phenol compounds varies from 15.33 to 20.94 mg GAE g-1 of fresh fruit. The content of total flavonoids is very low, and ranges from 0.419 to 1.31 mg QE g-1 of fresh fruits. Anthocyanins content lies between 0.112 mg cyanidin 3-glucoside/g of fresh sample in ethanol extract and 0.265 mg of cyanidin 3-glucoside g-1 of fresh blackthorn fr

Summary This study aims to analyze the impact of climatic variables on the fruiting of blackthorn (Prunus spinosa L.), a species which serves as both a food source and a habitat, offering birds shelter and providing other species with refuge from predators. Accordingly, blackthorn fruiting was recorded through field research in the peri-urban green infrastructure of Belgrade over 18 consecutive years. Urban edges are often the sites of expanding artificial surfaces, habitat fragmentation, and complex land-use transitions, including agricultural intensification and abandonment, which collective

Abstract:

This chapter details the beginning of spring in the east country, when the days grew longer, rain fell, and the buds became a little greener. Inland, spring-messenger celandine and lemony primrose had appeared in hedge banks. However, forecasters said it will have been the coldest March, just three degrees, quite unlike last year's heat. Nevertheless, hedgerows up and down the valley revealed the erratic arrival of warmth and light. In a good year, Prunus dominates March landscapes. Many call them blackthorn, Prunus spinosa, but mostly this is mistaken. Blackthorn forms spiny thickets, one or two flowers together. The chapter also narrates a day of celebration for the valley's finest author, Ronald Blythe, who writes and gardens every day.
