The microscopic analysis doesn't allow a differential identification of the species. The results of aromatogram by the incorporation method of Muller-Hinton on solid medium, showed a significant antimicrobial activity (method Duraffourd,1987) of the extracts, infusion, and the active substances towards bacterial strains, essentially those recognized as antibiotic resistant (Staphylococcus, Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas, Enterobacter, Citrobacter); the results obtained indicate that the most efficient antibacterial activity was obtained with the pod infusion, the seed extract and the flavonoids. The raw extract has an important antifungal activity on Candida albicans. This could open opportunities for using this species in the treatment of urinary, respiratory, intestinals and cutaneous infections, and as a disinfecting additive on nosocomial area.展开更多

Perfectly adapted to arid and sandy soils, this species is a remarkable plant for dune fixation and thus fights against desertification. The objective of this study is to provide local species to various development programs of steppe ecological systems in nature and therefore ensure the rehabilitation of these species while considering the conservation of biodiversity and sustainable management of biological resources steppe. After a field survey and stratified sampling, the methodological approach has taken into account three types of analysis: a biometric analysis of a population of 100 individuals of this species, the second analysis on its biology at last an analysis of an ecological factor dealing with the accuracy governing the distribution of this species in Maiter Oued in the south of M'sila. The results have clarified the ecology of this species to better understand its biology and to develop statistically a diagnosis on the phenology and morphology of various organs (pods, seeds, leaves) of Genista saharae Cosson and Durieu.展开更多
