This study carried out in Chaleki Research Station in Gorgan in 2000. Station altitude and annual rainfall are 85 m and 600 mm respectively. Seedlings of Hypericum perforatum collected from different locals are varied in aspect of leaf size and height. Two locals were DRAZNO in west and GARMAB-DASHT in east of Gorgan with 2000 m and 400 m altitude respectively. Seedlings were Planted with intervals 30cm on row and 50 cm between row in autumn. The top yield of plants was harvested from 10 cm of terminal after 30% flowering and then were dried at room condition. Dry matter of tops, flowering date, Plants height and tillering was recorded from 10 random plants. The yield of the tops of plants in DRAZNO and GARMAB-DASHT were 6758 and 1696 Kg/ha respectively that was significant in T- Test(0.01, t=5.19). The till number in both local was almost equal but the plant height in GARMAB-DASHT (120.3 cm) was more than DRAZNO (67.7cm). The correlation between the tops of yield and tillering was for GARMAB-DASHT 0.70 and for DRAZNO 0.93.

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.

Scutellariais a member of Labiatae, distributed in mediteranean region and south of Asia. In Iran 20 species are present in center, northern, northwest and western districts. The aerial parts of Scutellaria pinnatifida. were collected from Touchal in Tehran province at full flowering stage in May 2004. Essential oil was isolated by hydrodistillation from the aerial parts of plant and analysed by a combination of capillary GC and GC/MS. The yeild of essential oil was obtained in 0.07% (w/w). 29 compounds in the oil have been identified representing 96.6% of the oil. The main constituent was germacrene D (39%). Other main components were β-caryophyllene, farnesene and bicyclogermacrene.

The genus of Satureja with the persian name of “Marzeh” consists of 14 species in Iran, 9 of them are endemic. One of these endemic species is Satureja bachtiarica. In this research, the aerial parts of S. bachtiarica were collected from two different localities in Fars and Yazd provinces, at full flowering stage. The plant materials were hydro-distilled for obtaining their essential oils. The oils were analyzed by capillary GC and GC/MS. The oil yields were calculated equal to 2.15% for Yazd sample and 1.65% for Fars sample. Twenty compounds were identified in the oil of Fars sample with carvacrol (49.3%), p-cymene (12.7%) and trans-a-bergamotene (5.8%) as main components. Twenty compounds were characterized in the oil of Yazd sample with carvacrol (66.5%), p-cymene (15.2%) and linalool (4.6%) as main constituents. The relatively high amount of oil yield and high percentage of carvacrol in the oil of S. bachtiarica, showed that this species could have the medicinal and nutritional uses like S. hortensis and S. montana. These two Satureja species are not native of Iran and S. bachtiarica may be used instead of them.

In order to optimizing nitrogen application for Hypericum perforatum production, a completely randomized block design (CRBD) was carried out with 6 treatments and 3 replications. The nitrogen application treatments were 0, 30, 60, 90, 120 and 150 kg Nha-1. In 1999 hypericin produced by application of 150 kg Nha-1 in the first harvest and 90 kg Nha-1 in the second harvest were in the maximum rates. Also hypericin yield have no significant difference among 90, 120 and 150-kg Nha-1 treatments in both harvests. In the first harvest from 1999 max. harvest index was 37% in control and min. was 27.7% which obtain in 150 kg Nha-1 treatment. Hypericin yield in first and second harvests of 1999 and also mean annuals among the medium and max. nitrogen application treatments, have not significant difference. Thus it seems application medium rates of nitrogen (90 kg Nha-1) is sufficient for producing high hypericin yield and also this medicinal plant couldnt consumes high fertilizer.

In the present study, the possible antinociceptive effect of methanolic seed extract of coriander was investigated in male streptozotocin-diabetic rats using standard formalin test. For this purpose, male albino wistar rats (250- 350 g) were used. They were randomly divided into three groups, i.e. control, diabetic and extract-treated diabetic. For induction of diabetes, streptozotocin (60 mg/Kg) was administered i.p. After one month, formalin test was conducted. The obtained findings demonstrated that pain sensation in the second interval (5-10 min) of the acute phase of the formalin test ishigher (P < 0.001) in comparison with control group, while a less significant difference was found between control and extract-treated diabetic group (P<0.05). On the other hand, there was no significant difference between control and extract-treated diabetic groups regarding acute and chronic phases of the formalin test. It is concluded that i.p. administration of this extract at a dose of 100 mg/Kg does not produce a significant analgesic effect in formalin test.

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 this investigation, 10 important essential species of Hormozgan province from Labiatae family was studied.These species were Lavandula stricta,Mentha mozaffariani, Salvia aegyptiaca, S. mirzayanii, S. santolinifolia,S. sharifii,Teucrium pollium, T. stocksianum, Zataria multiflora and Zhumeria majdae. With regard to source, search, inform persons and travelling to the various parts were determined ecological factors as: Habitate characteristics,local name, persian name, altitude, climate, rainfall, temperature, distributed regions, form, slope, campanion plants, soil texture, pH, EC, major compounds and traditional cure uses. Most of species were bushes. Used organ of them was leaf that used for digestive cures, romatism, fever,headache, cold, pain and wound. The major compounds of these plants were limonene, linalool and their derivatives that caused nice odour and tranquillizing properties. These plants located in mountainous regions, but some of them located in plains and hills. Altitude domain of habitates was varied between 10 to 2100 m. Soil texture of habitates was sandy-loam and loam with pH= 7.32 - 8.5 and EC= 0.130-1.357 mm/cm. Climates of speciesdistribution regions were hot and extradry, hot and semidry, hot and semidry deserty and hot and dry deserty. Average temperature was 17.5-27.5 average rainfall was 150-350 mm, although for more than species was 150-200mm. The habitate of species was sloppy rock with very low soil andtracks between rocks. Distribution of these species was very limited and thus formed.
