  • We have studied the effect of 31 extracts and 10 components from some edible and medicinal plants on the formation of lipid peroxide in the liver homogenate of rat in vitro. The 70% acetone extracts of Allium tuberosum, Beta vulgaris var. cicla and Brassica juncea var. integrifolia, and methanol extract of Capsicum annuum decreased the formation of lipid peroxide by 33%, 58%, 62% and 56% at the concentration of 1mg/ml, respectively. And these four extracts inhibited the lipid peroxidation at the concentration of $10^{-1}$mg/ml by 17%, 46%, 49% and 45% respectively. Among the component tested, quercetin, quercitrin and isorhamnetin reduced the formation of lipid peroxide by 45%, 15% and 28% respectively at the concentration of $10^{-2}$mg/ml.

  • Red pepper seedlings were inoculated either alone or with a mixture of all five species of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). After 10 weeks of growth in the greenhouse, the seedlings were transplanted into fields and cultivated without chemical fertilizers and pesticides for 10 weeks. The results showed that plant growth was significantly increased under both greenhouse and field conditions, suggesting that AMF inoculation has a positive effect on the growth of Capsicum annuum and improves the physical properties of the soil by increasing the concentration of glomalin. The application of AMF can positively contribute to sustainable agriculture by reducing the use of chemical fertilizers while increasing crop growth.
