Opis:
Astragalar fossils have been intensively studied as an indicator of the functional morphology and phylogenetic relation-ships of mammals. However, relatively few studies have investigated the relationship between astragalar size and body mass, usually with a focus on a particular taxonomic group. Here, univariate and multiple regression models are used to analyze the relationship between astragalar size and body mass based on an extensive sample of extant land mammals (11 orders, 48 species, 80 individuals; body mass ranging from 18 g to 3.4 t). The analyses revealed the size of the tibial trochlea to be a better predictor of body mass than the total size of the astragalus. Based on these results, estimates of the body mass of several Paleogene land mammals were calculated and compared to those of previous studies. Thus, for ex-ample, the body mass of “Baluchitherium”, the largest terrestrial mammal known to date, was estimated at about 10–15 t.

Opis:
Astragalus penduliflorus Lam. is an alpine-subalpine species. Several isolated populations occur in Europe: in the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians and in central Sweden. Astragalus penduliflorus is considered as critically endangered species in Poland, growing only at the locality in the Smytnia Valley, in the Western Tatra Mountains. The population is at risk, due to the limited reproduction caused by law rate of seed germination, periodically shortened vegetation period that prevent seed development and gnawing the aerial plant parts by deer. The aim of the study was to explain the reason for the poor germination of A. penduliflorus seeds. As a result of mechanical scarification, 100% of A. penduliflorus seeds germinated, which proved that these seeds are characterized by a water-impermeable seed coat, which classified them as hard seeds that go through physical dormancy. Results obtained in this work can be used for effective reproduction and active conservation of threatened A. penduliflorus.

Opis:
Antibacterial and antioxidant activities, total phenolic content, and protein content of gum tragacanth harvested from different populations of Astragalus gossypinus and Astaragalus parrowianus (Fabaceae) from three provinces in central to southwestern Iran were investigated. Total phenolic amount of aqueous solution of gum tragacanth was determined using Folin-Ciocalteu method. Antioxidant activity of the aqueous solution of gum tragacanth was evaluated by measuring DPPH. The antibacterial activity of the aqueous solution of gum tragacanth against four bacteria was determined by serial dilution assay. Results indicated that there were significant differences in amount of total phenol, antibacterial and antioxidant activities among different populations of two species. The highest amounts of total phenol of gum tragacanth were obtained from the Shahrekord and the Khomeyn populations for A. parrowianus (237 and 235 mg GAE∙g-1 gum tragacanth, respectively). The highest protein content was obtained from the populations of A. parrowianus and the lowest amount of protein content was obtained from the Shahrekord population of A. gossypinus. The highest antioxidant activity was obtained the Shahrekord population for both species (IC50 = 0.345, and 0.419 mg∙ml-1), and the Khomeyn population for A. gossypinus (IC50 = 0.511 mg∙ml-1). The aqueous solutions of the gum tragacanth studied indicated moderate-to-good inhibitory activities (MICs = 0.125 to 0.250 mg∙ml-1) against four bacteria, especially against Listeria monocytogenes. In conclusion, gum tragacanth from some populations of A. gossypinus and A. parrowianus could be an important dietary source of protein and total phenolic compound with antioxidant capacity and antibacterial activity.
Badano działanie antybakteryjne i antyoksydacyjne, całkowitą zawartość fenoli i zawartość gumy trragakantowej w różnych populacjach Astragalus gossypinus i Astaragalus parrowianus (Fabaceae) z trzech prowincji w środkowym i południowozachodnim Iranie. Określono całkowitą zawartość fenoli wodnego roztworu gumy tragakantowej przy użyciu metody Folin-Ciocalteu. Antyoksydacyjne działanie wodnego roztworu gumy tragakantowej oceniono, mierząc DPPH. Antybakteryjne działanie wodnego roztworu gumy tragakantowej w odniesieniu do czterech bakterii ustalono za pomocą testu seryjnych rozcieńczeń. Na podstawie wyników badań stwierdzono, że istnieją istotne różnice w całkowitej ilości związków fenolowych oraz działaniu antybakteryjnym i antyoksydacyjnym w różnych populacjach obydwu gatunków. Największą całkowitą zawartość związków fenolowych gumy tragakantowej otrzymano z populacji Shahrekord i Khomeyn dla A. parrowianus (odpowiednio, 237 i 235 mg GAE∙g-1 gumy tragakantowej). Największą zawartość białka otrzymano z populacji Shahrekord dla A. gossypinus. Największą aktywność antyoksydacyjną uzyskano dla populacji Shahrekord dla obydwu gatunków (IC50 = 0,345 i 0,419 mg∙ml-1) oraz Khomeyn dla A. gossypinus (IC50 = 0,511 mg∙ml-1). Wodny roztwór gumy tragakantowej wskazywał umiarkowane do dobrego działanie inhibicyjne (MICs = 0,125 do 0,250 mg∙ml-1) względem czterech bakterii, zwłaszcza Listeria monocytogenes. Podsumowując, guma tragakantowa z niektórych populacji A. gossypinus i A. parrowianus może być ważnym żywieniowym źródłem białka i związków fenolowych o zdolnościach antyoksydacyjnych i antybakteryjnych.

Opis:
Astragalus is a traditional herb which has been used in China for a long time. It regulates blood circulation (vital energy), invigorates body fluid circulation, protects the flow of blood to fight against the attack of pathogens, and strengthens “blood deficiencies” according to Bencao Congxin. Astragalus was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 2009 as a dietary supplement for upper respiratory infections, allergic rhinitis (hay fever), asthma, chronic fatigue syndrome, and chronic kidney disease. Thirty journals published in the past ten years were reviewed by using library search engines such as SCI/SCIE, PubMed, and Scopus. In this mini-review, we focus on the anti-inflammatory of Astragalus features, discuss the background of Astragalus and its function in various diseases from water-extracted Astragalus membranaceus, Astragalus saponins, and Astragalus polysaccharides. Based on the traditional Chinese medicine theory, Astragalus is a potential candidate to treat and prevent COVID-19.

Opis:
In this study, an efficient system to break seed dormancy and plant regeneration was established for perennial vulneraria milkvetch (Astragalus vulnerariae DC.). The seed coat dormancy could be easily released using 40% sulphuric acid treatment for 15 minutes, which made the seed coat permeable without damaging zygotic embryos. The tissue culture studies reported regeneration on 5 explants, which had variable effects on shoot regeneration, using MS medium containing variable concentrations of Kin–NAA and BAP–NAA. Maximum shoot regeneration of 86.67% with 4.47 shoots per explant was noted on MS medium containing 0.5 mg·l–1 Kin – 0.5 mg·l–1 NAA on hypocotyl explants. No shoot regeneration was noted on cotyledon leaf and shoot nodes using MS medium containing any concentration of BAP–NAA. Maximum shoot regeneration of 50% with 3 shoots per explant was also observed on 1 mg·l–1 BAP – 0.5 mg·l–1 NAA on epicotyl explants. MS medium containing Kin–NAA induced hypocotyl explant shoots had rooting percentage of 36.67% on 0.5 mg·l–1 IBA, whereas, MS medium containing BAP–NAA induced hypocotyl shoots had rooting percentage of 46.67%. The in vitro cultured plants had an acclimatization rate of 78%. Aesthetically attractive, economical, easy to maintain and water efficient vulneraria milkvetch is currently not available in landscaping. The system of plant regeneration and adaptation suggested by this paper may help to dissipate it to a broad range of water scarce environments as a sustainable and inexpensive choice.

Opis:
It was proposed previously that passive dispersal by migratory aquatic birds explain the widespread distribution of many wetland organisms. Several experimental studies have shown that many widespread wetland plant species can be readily dispersed within the guts of Anatidae. However, it is unclear whether plants with a more restricted distribution are able to disperse via waterbirds. This paper addresses the dispersal ability and germination ecology of the little-known Hungarian milkvetch Astragalus contortuplicatus, which occurs on banks of continental rivers and has a limited and unpredictable distribution. To test whether limited capacity for endozoochory by waterfowl could explain the sporadic appearance of this species, we force-fed ten captive mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) with 100 milkvetch seeds each. Droppings were collected for up to 45 h after feeding. Intact and viable seeds were found in the droppings of each mallard, and altogether 24.7% of seeds fed were recovered intact. The proportion of retrieved seeds that germinated (27.0%) was significantly higher than that of untreated control seeds (0.5%), but significantly lower than that of mechanically scarified seeds (96.0%). Retrieved seeds that germinated developed into healthy mature plants. Given the average flight velocity of mallards, seeds of A. contortuplicatus may travel up to 1600 km inside the digestive tract of migrating individuals. Our results suggest that avian vectors may be more important for the dispersal of rare higher plants (especially those with a hard seed-coat) than hitherto considered. Moreover, they suggest that rarity does not necessarily indicate limited dispersal ability, and may instead be explained by specific habitat requirements.

Opis:
Astragalus nitidiflorus is an endangered legume endemic to the southeast of the Iberian Peninsula. This species develops symbiotic relationships with N-fixing bacteria. However, the problem of isolating its rhizobia has not been solved. Because poor N fixation in plants can be corrected by fertilization, the effect of N-P-K fertilizers on growth, leaf chlorophyll and mineral ions was studied. Plants of A. nitidiflorus were grown in 100%-substrate with different N-P-K fertilizer rates (mg l–1): 1-1-8 (S0), 69-29-35 (SL), 144-43-131 (SM) and 245-58-235 (SH). A treatment with substrate plus soil from the natural habitat and no fertilizers (T0) was included. The reference foliar contents of N, P and K were 42.5, 3.5 and 36.5 mg g–1, respectively. Although the species did not form root nodules when grown in substrate, T0 plants produced active nodules that allowed the plants to grow properly without fertilization. In the absence of nodules, both N fertilization (~144 mg l–1) and Fe fertilization (>12 mg l–1) are vital, as is, to a lesser extent, K fertilization (~75 mg l–1 K2O). The S0 and SL reduced leaf chlorophyll, while SM prevented its degradation.

Opis:
Notoungulates represent the most taxonomically diverse and temporally and geographically widespread group among South American native ungulates. Here, we analyze anatomical and systematic aspects of proximal tarsal bones recovered from the Lower and Upper Lumbrera formations (middle and late middle Eocene) in northwestern Argentina. We provide detailed descriptions, comparisons, and infer foot stances and range of movements for the taxa implicated. Material studied includes astragali belonging to the oldfieldthomasiid Colbertia lumbrerense (Lower Lumbrera Formation), a set of proximal tarsals referred as Typotheria indet. (Lower Lumbrera Formation), and tarsals (also including navicular and cuboid) of the informal taxon “Campanorco inauguralis” (Upper Lumbrera Formation). The comparison of the tarsals of Colbertia lumbrerense (middle Eocene of Argentina) with Colbertia magellanica (early Eocene of Brazil) reveals several differences including variations on the development and arrangement of articular facets, and the size of the dorsal astragalar foramen in the Argentinean species. The specimen of Typotheria indet. shows morphological affinities with basal interatheriid taxa. However, its larger size contrasting with the overall small body sizes of Eocene interatheriids precludes an indisputable taxonomic assignment. Concerning “Campanorco inauguralis”, our observations indicate that there is no morphological evidence for a close phylogenetic relationship with Mesotheriidae. It presents a “reversed alternating tarsus” condition, which is also observed in Leontiniidae, “Notohippidae”, Toxodontidae, and some typotherians. However, the spectrum of singularities exhibited by this form precludes the assessment of its relationships in the context of the Paleogene radiation of Typotheria and it is necessary to extend the comparison to Eocene notoungulates. Finally, in a morphofunctional context a plantigrade foot posture is inferred for the specimens here reported. These observations have the potential to provide functional proxies for paleoecological reconstructions to be applied to the study of the early radiation of these notoungulate faunas.
