“…Phytochemical substances that are present in plant extracts are generally low toxic and have high physiological activity at low concentrations. In regions with extreme climatic conditions, there are several plant species that are excellent sources of phytochemicals [1]. Ephedra species are known as sources of biologically active compounds with potential pharmaceutical, cosmetic, food, and agricultural purposes [2].…”

Evergreen plants in permafrost ecosystems survive unfavorable autumn cooling and extremely low winter temperatures by maintaining optimal physiological activity of tissue cell membranes. To some extent, these features are due to the properties of shoot lipids performing a number of functions during adaptation. Sterols (STs) play a key role in regulating the fluidity and permeability of plant membranes (phytosterols) with a wide structural diversity. The composition of neutral lipids, STs, and fatty acids (FAs) in shoots of the evergreen shrub Ephedra monosperma growing in the Botanical Garden cryolithozone was first studied with HPTLC-UV/Vis/FLD and GC-MS. Twenty FAs were found, from C14:0 to C23:0; they included mono-, di-, tri-, and tetraene FAs. The high content of β-sitosterol among other ∆-5 sterols and an increased amount of C18:2(∆9,12) linoleic acid in lipids composition during the autumn–winter period was found to play an important role in the adaptation of ephedra shoots to the autumn–winter period, providing the cell membrane with greater plasticity, fluidity, and flexibility. The important role of diene linoleic fatty acid C18:2(∆9,12) in ephedra shoot lipids in the processes of low-temperature adaptation was shown.

“…(hereafter P. deltoides) is a deciduous tree that produces a large amount of biomass per unit area and time (Zabek and Prescott 2006). Easy establishment, straight cylindrical bole, high merchantable bole volume, and short rotation time (typically about eight to ten years) are other potentials of poplar species (Eslamdoust 2022). These potentials make poplar suitable for planting trees under agroforestry systems (Das and Chaturvedi 2005).…”

Poplar (Populus deltoides Bartr. ex Marsh.) produce a large amount of biomass per unit area and is important fast-growing species in different planting systems. However, the appropriate space between poplar trees is essential to high-performance productivity in diverse regions. The present study monitored the effect of different spacing configurations (A: 4 × 3 m; B: 4 × 3 m (pure poplar); C: 6 × 3 m; D: 8 × 3 m; E: 10 × 3 m and F: pure crop) of poplar-based agroforestry with two canola (Brassica napus L.) and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cropping system on biomass production and carbon storage. Over the eight years, the total poplar biomass production was significantly different (P ≤ 0.05) in poplar-based configurations and ranged from 9.1 to 13.4 mg ha–1. The highest carbon storage of 6.5 mg ha–1 was observed in configuration E. Crop production of canola and wheat in configurations B, C, D, and E, did not show a significant difference with pure crop cultivation, while configuration A was significantly lower. Our result indicated that configuration E, with the highest total biomass production but no significant difference in crop production, is the optimum system of poplar-based agroforestry in regions with similar temperate climate conditions of Northern Iran. Finally, poplar-based agroforestry provides high efficiency of carbon sequestration in trees which can conserve all market and non-market benefits.
