Abstract | ||
We have detected phenolic compounds in aerial parts (leaves and stems) of plants flowering for the species of the genus Anchusa L. Developing in Iraq, as has been collecting models of five species of genus above, and their natural habitats, where most of them grow in environments mountain, a method is used Thin Layer chromatography (TLC) in the detection of these compounds and using (Standards) to compare the values of the (Rf) and colors, the results showed that the species of genus above has shown significant variations in terms of containing phenolic compounds, which can be counted as evidence supporting an important taxonomic characteristics of the other phenotypic and anatomical characteristics, environmental and pollen. According avaliability of information, this study is the first of its kind as it became clear that there is no prior study addressed the detection of phenolic compounds and use that comes to the species of diagnostic genus placed research. | ||
