    Juniperus Sabina L. is one of the most popular medicinal trees with wild distribution in Cold stepic Mountainous area of Golestan province، which has been used as strong anti infection، sedative and anti bacterial، to treat of UTI، fungi infection، rheumatism and fever. In this research different parts of plant were collected in May to late of October 2010 in dry cold stepic region of South east of Golestan province (2300m). Aqueous، and ethanolic extracts were obtained by percolation method and their antibacterial effect were evaluated by disc diffusion and well method against 13 gram positive and gram negative bacteria. Inhibition zone after 24h were measured and their antibacterial activity analyzede in Pearson chi-square (P<0. 05). Results showed ethanolic extracts of leaves and green cones in 1/2 dilution، with 30-33mm inhibition zone had the most effective against tested bacteria، especially in well method (P<0. 001)، but aqueous extracts have not any antibacterial effect. gram positive bacteria (Staphylococcus epidermidis، Staphylococcus aureus، Micrococcus loteus and Listeria monocytogenesis were the most sensitive bacteria against ethanol extract، but Gram negative bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeroginosa، Salmonella and Shigella with lower than 6mm، were the most resistant bacteria (P<0. 005). In conclusion، ethanolic extracts of J. sabina can be a good candid for chemical analysis and their antibacterial activity in animal and clinical models to formulation and production of natural antibacterial drug.

    Pleurotus florida is an industrially cultivated basidiomycete with nutritional، environmental and medical properties. In This study used the cellulytic waste materials contains newspaper، straw paper، inkjet printed paper، laser printed paper، handwritten paper، plain paper. The effects of different substrate on fruit body formation، biological efficiency and protein content of P. florida in 50 days period were examined. Spawn running، pin head and fruit body formation، were studied and the results demonstrated that these three phases take less time in straw paper treatment compare to control. In the all treatments، protein content were decreased. The most protein content was observed in the laser printed paper while the lowest measure of protein content showed in the straw paper treatment. The waste paper treatments decreased biological efficiency and also in the protein content of P. florida.

    In the flora Iranica this genus is represented by ten species، four of which are endemic. The genus Echinophora is known for medicinal value، antimicrobial properties. the aerial parts of Echinophora were collected during the flowering stage from Sisakt Hill in Yasoj province، in September 2009 and were hydrodistilled for 4 hours، using a Clevenger-type apparatus to yield 0. 5 % (w/v) of yellowish oil and analyzed with GC and GC/MS. The constituents of the essential oil were identified by comparison of their mass spectra and retention indices (RI) with those given in the literature and authentic samples. Antimicrobial activities of the essential oil were investigated according to the disk diffusion method. Twenty –one compounds were characterized in the essential oil of E. cinerea representing 96. 73% of the oil، of which transe –β-cimene (36. 6%)، myrcene (6. 3%)، linalool (27. 19%)، were found to be the major components. The oil of of E. cinerea showed high antimicrobial activity against staphylococcus aureua،staphylococcus epidermidisium،Ecoli and fungus such as candida albicans which is due to present of linalool in the essential oil، also comparison of the effect of essential oil of Echinophora cinerea with used antibiotics showed that the effect of essence in less concentrations is the same of tetracycline and Gentamicin.

    Gomishan non hunting area is located in Northwest of Golestan province along the Eastern coasts of Caspian Sea and regarded as a wetland ecosystems. In this study، we aimed to introduce plant vegetations and species composition of the area and clarify conservational situation in view of the fact that the results could provide clues to how to propose conservative and utilizable plans for future. On the base of 60 sampled relevés (using Braun-Blanquet method)، the studied plant communities are placed in three main groups consisting of natural halophytic communities، farmlands and disturbed communities. Halophytic vegetations are classified in five previously identified orders (Ruppieteamaritimae، Phragmiteteaaustralis، Astereteatripolium، Thero- Salicornieta and Tamaricetearamosissimae) and two unclassified Cynanchumacutum and Psylliostachysspicata communities. The distribution and zonation of the known communities seem to be mostly depended upon soil humidity and salinity. Some of the identified species have ecological-economical values، however approximately 50 percent of the collected species are related to the ruderal species and disturbed areas that reflects a poorly managed situation.
