Saffron spice is the dried, dark- red stigmata of crocus sativus. L flowers is a very high valve material due to its applications, mainly those to provide color and flavor to foods . Dietary factors play a significant role in both cancer promotion and prevention. Carotenoieds are one of the most common dietary compounds that have been studied as cancer- preventive agents. Recently extracts from natural products and saffron ave also been shown to exhibit anticancer activity.the main pigments of saffron are mono – and di- glycosyle esters of the polyene dicarboxylic acid crocetin, where D-glycose and D- gentobiose occurs as carbohydrate residues.For the extracton of saffron 20 gr was successively and exhausively extracted with light petroleum , diethyl ether and methanol in a soxhlet extractor in the dark. The methanol extract contained the glycosede carotenoids of saffron. Separation of the constituents was achieved by silica gel TLC using diffrents solvent (mobile phase) system. The TLC method was time consuming and also gave an overestimation of the colour princiles.

Rosa damascene Mill. wascollected from west parts of Iran, and cultivated at the experimental field of Research Institute of Forests and Rangelands, using a three replicated randomized complete blocks design. Seven genotypes, were compared for essential oils yield in 2003 and for petal, stamen, and pistil number, in 2003-2004. Genotypes showed significant differences in terms of the measured traits. Comparison of means classified the genotypes in 7, 7 and 7 (in 2003) and 6, 7 and 6 (in 2004) groups, for petal, stamen and pistil number, respectively. Also, essential oils concentration and yield showed genotypic variation. A considerable variation was, therefore, revealed from different analyses in floral parts and essential oils concentration of Rosa damascena Mill. from west parts of Iran. It could then be concluded from the results of different analyses that although the genotypes could be grouped based on geographical origins, concentration and yield of essential oils as the most important product of Rosa damascena Mill., and also some of the related traits, such as floral parts could be used as appropriate selection factors for classification of damask rose genotypes, in order to use in breeding program.

In order to study the genetic variation in Rosa damascena Mill., an experiment was conducted at the experimental field of Research Institute of Forests and Rangelands. Eleven genotypes were evaluated, using a randomized complete blocks design with three replications. Flower yield, flower number, single flower weight, plant height, canopy, branch angel, leaf number, spine density and spine length, were analyzed, using analysis of variance, principal components analysis and cluster analysis. The results showed significant differences among genotypes for all of the traits, indicating a considerable genetic variation in germplasm available in Iran. Using principal components analysis, the first three components determined 68.43% of the total variation. According to the cluster analysis, genotypes could be grouped into 3 clusters. Genotypes in cluster 1 averaged well above the overall mean for productivity and the other characteristics.

Rosa damascena Mill. genotypes from different areas of Iran, were cultivated at the experimental field of Research Institute of Forests and Rangelands, using a three replicated randomized complete blocks design. 11 genotypes were compared based on flower yield and morphological characteristics, including plant height, canopy, spine density , spine length, branch angel and leaf number. Evaluation of the obtained data was performed using ANOVA, mean classification and correlation analysis. Genotypes showed significant differences in terms of the measured traits. Comparison of means, classified the genotypes in 3, 4 and 3 groups, based on flower yield, flower number, and average flower weight, respectively. Also, the genotypes were classified in different groups, based on morphological characteristics. The results also indicated that there is a good relationship between some of the measured traits, particularly between yield and number of flowers. It could be concluded from the results of different analyses that although the genotypes could be grouped based on geographical origins, flower yield and number and some of the morphological characteristics could be used as appropriate selection factors for classification of damask rose genotypes, in order to use in breeding programs.

This study was conducted in a greenhouse located at the Research Institute of Forests and Rangelands. The responses of genotypes of 3 Mentha species to salinity stress regarding rooting ability as well as other growth parameters, were evaluated, using a completely randomized design, based factorial design in 3 replications. Stem cuttings of 6 Mentha genotypes, including 28 and 3 (M. piperita L.), 6 and 31 (M. aquatica L.), and 11 and 17 (M. spicata L.) were grown in 0, 50, 100, 150 and 200 mM NaCl solutions. Rooting percentage, maximum root length, average root length, plant vigor, bud induction in saline water, maximum shoot length and shoot bud induction were measured 14, 21 and 28 days after cutting. The results showed that all of the above parameters were reduced with increase in NaCl concentration. However, there was a considerable variation for salt stress responses. All of the characteristics, particulary rooting percentage showed to be singificantly different in the salt treated genotypes, with the highest rooting ability in genotype 6 under 200 mM NaCl. Also, a positive correlation was observed between rootig percentage, as well as between the other parameters. The variation in growth components detected between genotypes, and the correlation between the traits, support a suggestion for breeding of mentha species of higher salt tolerance for cultivation under salinity stress.

Effects of various concentrations of essential oils (0, 2.5, 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100 percent) of Zhumeria majdae leaves collected from Sarchahan mountain on mitotic cell division and its stages in root cells of Allium cepa were studied in this investigation. Results showed that all of essential oil concentrations reduced the number of mitotic cells. The average of mitotic cells in control was 7.5 % and in 100% concentration was zero, and also prophase, metaphase and anaphase phases were reduced. The most of decreament was in prophase stage. There are many terpenes compounds in essential oils of Zhumeria majdae leaves.They are probably a major effective factor in decrease of mitotic cell division in Allium cepa roots.
