The journal welcomes submission from scholars and experts for possible publication from all over the world. The scope of the journal includes: Pharmaceutical research, chemistry and biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds, biological evaluation of crude extracts, ethnomedicine, traditional and complementary medicine, ethnopharmacology, biomedical research, Biotechnology, Evaluation of natural substances of land and sea and of plants, microbes and animals, pharmacognosy, bioavailability, clinical, pharmacological, toxicological studies and pharmacokinetics of phytochemicals, Isolation and characterization of compounds, structure elucidation, synthesis and experimental biosynthesis of natural Product as well as developments of methods in these areas are welcomed in the journal.
Highlights
Potato (Solanum tuberosum, L) in Algeria represents the first vegetable crop in terms of production and consumption
The results obtained in this study showed that the antibacterial activity of ethanol extract was more efficient against Gram positive than Gram-negative bacteria
To the best of our knowledge, no study has been done on the antibacterial activity of Cupressus sempervirens L. extracts against phytopathogenic bacteria Pectobacterium atrosepticum causative agent of soft rot on potato, the results obtained in this study revealed that Ethanol extract from C. sempervirens leaves reduced rot weight in potato tuber slices inoculated with P. atrosepticum, compared to water control treatments (Figure 5)
Summary
Potato (Solanum tuberosum, L) in Algeria represents the first vegetable crop in terms of production and consumption. Algeria is the second-largest potato producer in Africa, with a total potato production of 4,606,400.00 tons from 148,692.00 hectares. Algerian consumes 111 kg/person/year of potato, three times higher than the international average, estimated at 31 kg/person/year.[1] The production of potatoes is accompanied by severe diseases caused by bacterial phytopathogens, leading to enormous losses in yield and quality worldwide.[2] The major source of the soft rot bacteria is contamination by one or a combination of soft rotting pectinolytic enterobacteria.[3]. This group has undergoneconsiderabletaxonomicrevisions over the past 20years, since the development of phylogenomic classification systems.[4]
