Matteuccia struthiopteris

Common Names: ostrich fern

Ethnobotanical Studies

Studies

Comparison of Flavonoid Content, Antioxidant Potential, Acetylcholinesterase Inhibition Activity and Volatile Components Based on HS-SPME-GC-MS of Different Parts from Matteuccia struthiopteris (L.) Todaro.

Summary

Researchers identified volatile components in different parts of the fern and compared their medicinal properties. Crozier had strong antioxidant activity, while underground parts showed potential for AChE inhibition. Common volatile compounds have various applications in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.

Molecular systematics and a revised taxonomy of the onocleoid ferns (Dryopteridaceae: Onocleeae).

Summary

The study analyzed nucleotide sequences of the chloroplast-encoded rbcL gene for multiple species of ferns and their relatives. The data was analyzed using maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood criteria to determine evolutionary relationships. The results supported reclassification of two fern species and their varieties, as well as a possible reclassification of related genera. The study provides new insight into the evolutionary history and classification of these ferns and their relatives.
