Objectives : The application of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the discrimination of the herbal medicine Leonuri Herba (Leonurus japonicus) was evaluated by the comparison of the DNA sequence with Lamiaceae herbal medicine. Method : Genetic analysis showed that phylogenetic tree and comparing sequences through the DNA analysis of rbcL (ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphatecarboxylase) region and trnL-F (tRNA-Leu, trnL-trnF intergeni cspacer, and tRNA-Phe) region of chloroplast DNA from six Lamiaceae sold in market. And we developed IMCF and IMCR primers in order to distinction Leonuri Herba in six Lamiaceae using rbcL and trnL-F sequences. Results : Genetic analysis showed that six Lamiaceae showed individual group on phylogenetic tree. PCR amplification product of Leonuri Herba and another five Lamiaceae were developed for amplification of a 281 bp sequence and the specific PCR amplification of a 460 bp sequence that was exclusive to Leonuri Herba was designed using IMCF and IMCR primers. Conclusion : PCR analysis based on the chloroplast DNA sequences allows the discrimination of Leonuri Herba-based medicine.

In the current study, inhibitory activity of 8 selected Korean edible plants of Lamiaceae family against $\alpha$-glucosidases, prepared from rat small intestine acetone powder was evaluated. Total flavonoids and oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) were also investigated. Methyl alcohol extracts of Scutellaria indica (SI) had the highest $\alpha$-glucosidase inhibitory activity relevant for potentially managing hyperglycemia, followed by Clinopodium gracile (CG) and Thymus quinquecostatus (TQ). These 3 species also showed significant antioxidant activity in ORAC system. The $\alpha$-glucosidase inhibitory activity of the extracts was compared to selected phenolics. Among the standard phenolics tested quercetin which was major flavonoid in the extracts had the highest $\alpha$-glucosidase inhibitory activity. CG, TQ, and SI which had high quercetin content and ORAC values also exhibited significant sucrase inhibitory activity. Results suggested that selected 3 Korean Lamiaceae species have the potential development of effective dietary strategy for postprandial hyperglycemia and oxidative stress-linked diabetes complications.

Scutellaria tuberifera C. Y. Wu & C. Chen belonging to Lamiaceae, a species previously unrecorded for Korean flora, was collected streamside in the Andeok valley of Seogwipo-Si, on Jeju island. This species can be distinguished from others of Scutellaria from Korea by having rhizomes with leafless and branching stolons at the nodes, globose to ovoid tubers 5-7 mm in diameter at the terminal parts, and stems densely spreading pilose. Photos of the habit and illustration are provided.

We report Scutellaria krasevii Kom. & I. Schischk. ex Juz. (subfamily Scutellarioideae, family Lamiaceae) as a new recorded species of Mongolia. This species is morphologically similar to S. galericulata but can be differentiated by the presence of comparatively thick and triangular-cordate leaves having a heteromerously deep-crenate margin, a densely reclinate pubescent stem, and a densely pubescent corolla. A taxonomic description, a key to the genus in Mongolia, habit photographs, and scanning electron photomicrographs of nutlets are provided for species identification. We also present a table for a comparison of the diagnostic characteristics with those of related species. This species grows along the banks of the Unit river, Khutag-Undur soum, Bulgan province, Mongolia, approximately 2,300 km far away from the type locality in Russia.

Dracocephalum rupestre Hance is a perennial herb distributed across China, Mongolia, and Korea. This study reports the first complete chloroplast genome sequence of D. rupestre. The plastome is 151,230 bp long and exhibits a typical quadripartite structure comprising a large single-copy region of 82,536 bp, a small single-copy region of 17,408 bp, and a pair of identical inverted repeat regions of 25,643 bp each. It contains 130 genes, comprising 85 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis of D. rupestre and related species of Lamiaceae showed that the genus Dracocephalum is a monophyletic group, and D. rupestre is most closely related to D. psammophilum.

큰쉽싸리 (Lycopus lucidus Trucz. ex Benth. var. hirtus Regel) 자연집단의 자생지가 강원도 지역에서 발견되었다. 큰쉽싸리는 잎과 줄기에 많은 털을 갖는 특징으로 쉽싸리(L. lucidus var. lucidus)와 구분되는 것으로 알려져 있으나, 본 본류군의 분류학적 한계는 연구 보고된 바가 없고, 본 분류군의 한반도 분포 역시 명확히 알려진 바가 없다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 본 분류군의 상세한 형태학적 기재와 지리학적 분포 및 습성을 제시하였다.

꿀풀과 꽃향유의 1신변종이 한국 제주도 서귀포시 중문동, 햇볕이 드는 산록의 길가에서 발견되었다. 새 분류군을 다발꽃향유(Elsholtzia splendens var. fasciflora N.S. Lee, M.S. Chung & C.S. Lee, var. nov.)로 명명하였다. 형태적 특징을 기재하고 기준표본에 의한 해부도와 서식지의 식물사진을 제시하였다. 다발꽃향유는 잎의 길이가 2-4 cm, 화서 밑의 잎이 대부분 4장이며, 대개 2-4개의 화서가 다발로 모여나고, 총포의 모양이 난형인 점에서 꽃향유와 뚜렷이 구별된다.

한 생물체의 전체 유전체 크기는 계통학, 육종학, 집단유전학, 진화학과 같은 많은 분야에 활용될 수 있는 기본적인 정보이다. 최근에는 전체 유전체 결정 연구에서 특히 강조되고 있는데, 이는 최소 유전체 크기를 갖는 분류군의 선택은 유전체 결정사업의 효율성과 직접적으로 연관되어 있기 때문이다. 그러므로 유전체 연구의 선행 단계로서 연구 대상 종 및 연관된 분류군들의 유전체 양의 파악은 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 쉽고 빠르면서도 신뢰성 있는 방법으로 알려져 있는 flow cytometry를 이용하여 한반도에 자생하는 꿀풀과의 9속 15 분류군에 대한 유전체 크기를 측정하였다. 본 연구에서 유전체 양이 측정된 15 분류군들은 모두 최초로 그 유전체 양이 조사된 분류군들로서 Plant DNA C-value Database (http://data.kew.org/cvalues/)에 수록된 바 없는데, 특히 Agastache, Clinopodium, Elsholtzia, Isodon에 속하는 분류군들은 속 수준에서의 최초의 보고이다. 골무꽃(Scutellaria indica L.)은 0.37 pg (1C)의 유전체 크기를 갖는 것으로 측정되었는데, 이는 현재까지 보고된 꿀풀과 98 분류군의 유전체 양들 중 네 번째로 유전체의 크기가 작은 분류군이다. 이에 골무꽃은 향후 유전체 연구를 위해 꿀풀과를 대표할 한국 자생종으로서 우선적으로 선택하여 분석할 수 있는 종일 것이다. 조사된 분류군들 중 가장 유전체 크기가 큰 분류군은 속단(Phlomis umbrosa Turcz.; 1C=2.6 pg)으로서 이는 다배체 형성에 의한 본 종의 기원 가능성을 제시하고 있다.

Salvia bucharica belonging to the family Lamiaceae (Labiatae), afforded a novel terpenoid (1) named as salvatrione. The structure of 1 was elucidated through extensive 2-D NMR experiments and the biogenetic pathway of 1 has also been proposed. On biogenetic grounds, 1 may be considered to be a pseudo-triterpenoid as it is derived from the coupling of mono/ diterpenic units and not from squalene.

The herb of Agastache rugosa (Lamiaceae) called Korean mint as a spice or Agastache Herba as a crude drug is known to contain highly fragrant volatile substances. This research aimed to establish the quantitative gas chromatography (GC) method on the essential oil of A. rugosa using the three standard compounds, estragole, methyleugenol, pulegone, and to find whether the essential oil has anti-Alzheimer's activity. The GC quantification method was established by determining the linearity of calibration curve ($R^2$), linear range, and both limit-of-detection (LOD) and limit-of-quantification (LOQ). The $IC_{50}$ of the essential oil on the activities of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) were determined to be $69.06{\pm}0.26$ and $76.71{\pm}0.58{\mu}g/ml$, respectively.
