Volatile metabolites are produced by plants for self-defense and as communication mediators with the environment. Terpenes are volatiles emitted as odorant cues for herbivores and microorganisms. This study was aimed to investigate volatile metabolites produced by banana flowers that attract insect vectors of BBD. The volatile metabolites from banana flowers were extracted by headspace-solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) and identified by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS). It was ap...

The methonolic extract of the leaves of Pisonia alba (PA) were subjected to phytochemical analysis by standard qualitative analysis and the invitro antioxidant activity was evaluated by determination of total antioxidant capacity, 1.1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, Antioxidant activity, Nitric oxide potential. The analyses revealed that the methanol extract of Co was able to efficiently scavenge the free radicals in a dose dependant manner. The results were compare...

It is researched in this article that the status of environmental pollution in Ukraine is connected with the traditional technology domination based on excessive natural resources consumption and its irrational usage. The paper describes existing at the current time problems of formation of the “green” economy and measures necessary to solve it.
The goal of the research is to describe the ecological consequences of irrational usage of natural resources of Ukraine at the basic kinds of economic ...

The article presents the data on the status and structure of the spontaneous heterogeneous population of two species of the genus Taxus (Taxaceae), T. baccata and T. cuspidata, in the Syrets Arboretum of national importance (Kyiv). This population was formed as a result of spontaneous seed reproduction of cultured in the arboretum of adult specimens of two species of yew. The author describes the quantitative composition of individuals of the genus Taxus of seed origin and the conditions of thei...

During expedition on the Slovechansko-Ovruchskyi ridge in 2016–2018, we discovered new location of regionally rare species Polystichum aculeatum. This fern usually belongs to the mountain flora. New findings of plant species require additional research of its coenotic and ecological characteristics. We have found that the population of plants is a stenotope for most environmental factors. The zone of tolerance for this species is wider than we previously thought. This increases competitive capab...

The article presents the results of the study of carbon dioxide emission of forest litter and soil in two forest phytocoenoses of different types (coniferous pine and broadleaf oak forests). The study is aimed to measure and compare soil respiration and carbon dioxide emission from forest litter in broadleaf and conifer forests to assess the role of different forest phytocoenoses in the deposition of CO2 as an important greenhouse gas. The study of carbon dioxide emissions is conducted on two mo...

Recent pharmacological investigations of bryophytes have proven that the active principles present in these plants are quite unique and having potential chemical application and antioxidant capacity. In this study, the volatile components in extracts from Thuidium tamariscinum (Hedw.) Schimp. and Platyhypnidium riparioides (Hedw.) Dixon, Kazda?lar? (Kalkim-Yenice, ?anakkale, Turkey) were isolated by solid phase micro extraction technique and identified by mass selective detector gas chromatogra...

The research identified changes in biological activity of Ukrainian forest-steppe chernozem podzolized under the growing of buckwheat both as the main crops and as the crops of predecessor indicators for enzyme activity and processes of ammonification and nitrification abilities in different farming systems. It was established that the use of buckwheat for the organic system contributed to the increasing of enzymatic activity and ammonification and nitrification abilities of chernozem podzolized...

The influence of ash from the Dobrotvir thermal power plant dumps and potassium humate "STB-45" on the phytotoxicity of the rock dumps substrate of coal mines in Chervonograd mining region has been researched. Sudan grass Sorghum bicolor subsp. drummondii (Nees ex Steud.) has been used as a biotester. The increase of the stem height, leaf area, length and mass of roots under the influence of the addition of ash dumps to the substrate has been discovered. Application of the humate only has increa...
