The root-feeding weevil Hylobius transversovittatus Goeze (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is used for biological control of the invasive plant purple loosestrife, Luthrum salicaria L. (Lythraceae). A simple rearing system for this weevil was developed with the goals of improving production techniques
Several extracts from stem and flower of Lythrum salicaria were evaluated for their hypoglycemic activity in rats. Results indicate that ether extracts from stem or flowers at a dose equivalent to 10 g/kg of crude plant material caused a significant reduction in blood glucose 4 h after oral
A high molecular mass polysaccharide-polyphenolic conjugate has been isolated from flowering parts of Lythrum salicaria by hot alkaline extraction. Its chemical analysis revealed 74% of carbohydrates and 17% of phenolics. Compositional analysis of carbohydrate part showed a high GalA content (49%),
OBJECTIVE
Lythrum salicaria L. belongs to the small Lythraceae family of 22 genera, which range in habit from herbs to shrubs and trees found with worldwide distribution (Heywood, 1993). The generic name of Lythrum derived from Greek "luthron"--blood, possibly referring to the color of the flowers
