We report here an updated summary about iridoid composition of a series from the genus Scrophularia which have been investigated until now from a phytochemistry point of view. In addition a list is included about iridoids isolated in our laboratory from different plant parts of Scrophularia scorodonia L., which are compared with iridoids from some species of the Scrophularia genus. The present study may serve as a current information to researchers working on phytochemistry and pharmacological aspects from the Scrophularia genus and possibly to serve as a new starting point for future investigations.

is a saprophytic and opportunistic fungus with a worldwide distribution that can affect the quality of various agricultural products, such as fruits, cereals, and pseudocereals. This research was carried out to investigate the population of this genus associated with quinoa cultivation in plots located in the Boyacá department (Colombia), the country's third-largest quinoa-producing department. The present study found 17 isolates, of which 13 were identified as and 4 as (formerly ) employed molecular markers of internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region and translation elongation factor 1α (TEF-1α).

Medicinal plants used in European folk medicine attached to Lamiales, Gentianales or Asterales orders are used to treat inflammatory disorders. Many targets have been identified but to date, implication of purinergic receptor P2X7 activation has not yet been investigated. We managed to evaluate the protective effect on P2X7 activation by plant extracts used as anti-inflammatory in European folk medicine by the YO-PRO-1 uptake dye in vitro bioassay.

, a perennial medicinal plant from the Scrophulariaceae family, is the original species of Radix (SR) in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. This medicine is usually deliberately substituted or accidentally contaminated with other closely related species including , , and . Given the ambiguous identification of germplasm and complex evolutionary relationships within the genus, the complete chloroplast genomes of the four mentioned species were sequenced and characterized.
