Plants, 2022 Opuntia species (prickly pear) were deliberately introduced to many countries around the world for fruit, cochineal dye production, living fencing or as ornamentals. They are now some of the world’s most significant weeds, particularly in regions with warm and or dry climates, as they pose threats to economic and environmental assets. In addition, they

Plant Cell, Tissue and Organ Culture, 2017
Callus from Opuntia streptacantha (cv. Tuna loca), Opuntia megacantha (cv. Rubi reina), and Opuntia ficus-indica (cv. Rojo vigor) were exposed to jasmonic acid (JA) and abiotic stress (drought and UV light) to improve the metabolite production. The callus growth curves, phenolic acids and flavonoids content, antioxidant activity and phenylalanine ...

Phytotaxa, 2021
The genus Opuntia is one of the most emblematic of the cactus family (Cactaceae) and a species-rich clade within subfamily Opuntioideae. After molecular phylogenetic studies showed that the traditional broad circumscription of Opuntia could not be retained as the genus was polyphyletic, various segregated genera were recognize based on both ...

Opuntia spp. were major weeds in Qld and NSW. The biological control program that ran from 1911 to 1939 resulted in the release of 20 biological control agents, with 14 reported as established, some of which appear to have subsequently died out. Cactoblastis cactorum and Dactylopius spp. are considered to be the main agents that controlled Opuntia spp.

Bulletin of the Torrey Botanical Club, 1905
In the Bulletin of the Torrey Botanical Club for May, I905, Professor Toumey * presents notes on the fruits of some species of Opuntia. No reference to the literature appears, and this circumstance, in connection with the conclusions drawn from his observations, seems to justify a brief statemnent of similar observations which have been made upon ...

Comparison of Biological Activities of Opuntia humifusa and Opuntia ficus-indica [PDF]
Korean Journal of Plant Resources, 2013 The Opuntia extract has been traditionally used to treat diabetes, inflammation, and rheumatoid arthritis in oriental medicine. The purpose of this study is to investigate characteristics of biological activity between Opuntia humifusa and Opuntia ficus-indica which is cultivating in korea using cell-free system or cell-based assay. O. humifusa extract

Molecular Characterization of Opuntia spp.
2021According to the different classification methods, the genus Opuntia belongs to the Cactaceae family native to the Americas, and encompasses several species ranging from 75 to 250. Many of these species are diffused, and some of them are cultivated in arid and semi-arid areas. The most economically important species is O. ficus-indica L.

Literature on distributions, habitat characteristics, and identification of Opun- tia species in the southeastern US is scant. Regional treatments of Opuntia are often ambig - uous, limited studies based primarily on herbarium specimens. The present work provides a detailed description of the opuntias found in Mississippi along with their distributions
