AB  - Sodium alginate is one of the most interesting and the most investigated and applied biopolymers due to its advantageous properties. Among them, easy, simple, mild, rapid, non-toxic gelation by divalent cations is the most important. In addition, it is abundant, low-cost, eco-friendly, bio-compatible, bio-adhesive, biodegradable, stable, etc. All those properties were systematically considered within this review. Carotenoids are functional components in the human diet with plenty of health benefits. However, their sensitivity to environmental and process stresses, chemical instability, easy oxidation, low water solubility, and bioavailability limit their food and pharmaceutical applications. Encapsulation may help in overcoming these limitations and within this review, the role of alginate-based encapsulation systems in improving the stability and bioavailability of carotenoids is explored. It may be concluded that all alginate-based systems increase carotenoid stability, but only those of micro- and nano-size, as well as emulsion-based, may improve their low bioaccessibility. In addition, the incorporation of other biopolymers may further improve encapsulation system properties. Furthermore, the main techniques for evaluating the encapsulation are briefly considered. This review critically and profoundly explains the role of alginates in improving the encapsulation process of carotenoids, suggesting the best alternatives for those systems. Moreover, it provides a comprehensive cover of recent advances in this field.

AB  - Barley, rye, triticale, oat, sorghum and millet flours, subjected to roasting or extrusion treatment, were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopy with aim to determine structural changes within starch and protein molecules that caused specific rheological properties of heat treated flours. Mixolab was used to determine how changes in starch and protein structure are reflected in rheological properties of dough. Extrusion treatment caused more extensive changes both in starch and protein structure than roasting treatment. Changes of protein secondary structure from α-helix to β-turn aggregated by hydrogen bonds, formed mainly between tyrosyl groups, as well as change in disulphide bond conformation, were more pronounced in extruded flour samples. Changes in the starch structure were also more extensive in extruded flours samples, including complete gelatinization and formation of amylose-lipid complexes. The results obtained by Mixolab showed that all extruded doughs showed resistance at C2 point, which was shifted to approximately 30 min, indicating higher mechanical resistance. It was supposed that this change in dough behaviour is related to protein polymerization during extrusion treatment and starch aggregation during roasting treatment. © 2023

AB  - This study investigates the effects of ultrasound, in combination with chemical pretreatments, on the quality attributes (total phenolic and carotenoid content, antioxidant activity (2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl assay (DPPH)), ferric-reducing ability (FRAP), CIE L* a* b* color, non-enzymatic browning, rehydration ratio, textural and morphological properties) of red pepper subjected to drying (hot air drying or freeze drying). The fractional factorial design was used to assess the impact of factors. The global Derringer desirability function was used to determine the optimal conditions for the best quality attributes of dried pepper. The drying method influenced total phenolic content, a* (redness), and initial rehydration ratio; pretreatment time significantly affected FRAP antiradical activity, a*, chroma and non-browning index, while pH-value had a significant effect on the texture of dried pepper. Non-enzymatic browning was reduced to 72.6%, while the DPPH antioxidant capacity of freeze-dried peppers was enhanced from 4.2% to 71.9%. Ultrasonic pretreatment led to changes in the pepper morphology, while potassium metabisulfite (KMS) was a more effective additive than citric acid.

AB  - The Balkan Peninsula has a long tradition in folk medicine and a plethora of 
plant species are utilised in treating skin disorders [1]. Within the context of 
the EU project “EthnoHERBS”, the aim of this study was the phytochemical and 
biological investigation of Serbian plants that have been traditionally used in 
the treatment of skin ailments (hyperpigmentation, wound healing). Eighty two plant species, selected based on ethnobotanical studies, were extracted 
successively with dichloromethane, methanol and methanol:water (1:1) and 
their chemical profile was investigated through high-performance thin-layer 
chromatography (HPTLC) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC DAD). The total phenolic (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC) were evaluat ed using the Folin-Ciocalteau and the aluminium chloride colorimetric method, 
respectively. The antioxidant capacity of extracts was determined through the 
DPPH assay (concentration of 200 µg/mL), and their anti-tyrosinase and an ti-collagenase activity was tested at a concentration of 300 µg/mL and 100 µg/
mL, respectively. Several secondary metabolites were detected in the extracts 
such as terpenes, flavonoids, tannins, etc. The highest antioxidant activity was 
found in the extracts of Mentha longifolia, Hypericum perforatum and Cotinus 
coggyria. The hydroalcoholic and the methanolic extracts of Cotinus coggyria
demonstrated the best anti-tyrosinase (IC50 = 36.27 μg/mL) and the best an ti-collagenase (IC50 = 18.13 μg/mL) activity, respectively. In conclusion, ex ploitation of traditional knowledge can provide valuable information for the 
development of natural products with beneficial skin effects

AB  - Essential oils (EOs) are complex mixtures of volatile and semivolatile compounds (aldehydes, ketones, alcohols and esters) obtained usually by hydro-distillation from the dry or fresh plant material (seeds, leaves, stems, bark or wood) [1]. Most of the EOs are used in aroma therapy, plant protection (as pesticide), food industry (as food preservatives), perfume industry etc. Because of high demand, EOs are often counterfeited and the quality of EOs is usually controlled by gas chromatography. 
The aim of this paper is to analyze Origanum oil and its counterfeits by Raman spectroscopy. As an adulterant sunflower oil was used. Adulterated essential oils contained 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 % of sunflower oil. Raman spectra of pure Origano oil and its counterfeits were measured by Witec R300 system equipped with 532 nm laser. Visual inspection of raw spectra led to conclusion that band at 2851 cm-1 is a marker for sunflower oil presence in Origanum oil. However, this band was obvious only when concentration of sunflower oil is higher than, or equal to 10% and could not be seen in lower concentration. In order to reveal presence of this this band in lower concentration, region between 2800 and 3000 cm-1 was subjected to derivatization and then smoothing. Results displayed that Raman spectroscopy in combination with mathematical transformation of spectra can reveal small concentration of unwanted adulterant in Origanum oil.

AB  - This study represents a comparative analysis of secondary metabolites content, antioxidant, and antimicrobial activity of 24 halophytes from coastal saline habitats of the Balkan Peninsula (Montenegro, Albania, and Greece). Total content of phenolics, flavonoids, tannins, anthocyanins, antioxidant, and antimicrobial activity was determined for dry methanolic (DME) and crude water extracts (CWE) and compared with well-known medicinal plants. The total phenolic content ranged from 13.23 to 376.08 mg of GA/g of DME, and from 33.68 to 511.10 mg/mL of CWE. The content of flavonoids ranged from 12.63 to 77.36 mg of RU/g of DME, and from 12.13 to 26.35 mg/mL of CWE. Total tannins and anthocyanins varied from 0.05 to 2.44 mg/mL, and from 1.31 to 39.81 µg/L, respectively. The antioxidant activity ranged from 1147.68 to 15.02 µg/mL for DME and from 1613.05 to 21.96 µg/mL for CWE. The best antioxidant properties, and the highest content of phenolic compounds, were determined for Polygonum maritimum and Limonium vulgare with values similar to or higher compared to the medicinal plants. Halophytes with significant antimicrobial potential were Limonium vulgare, L. angustifolium, and Artemisia maritima. Some of the analyzed coastal halophytes can be considered rich natural sources of phenolic compounds, with favorable antioxidative and antimicrobial properties. © 2023 by the authors.

AB  - Ammi visnaga is a very popular medicinal plant well known for its biological properties afforded by its dense chemical composition highly dependent on environmental factors. The present study was designed to examine the antioxidant potencies using four complementary assays (Total phenolic content (TPC), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), dihydroxycinnamic acid derivative content (HCA), and cupric ion reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC)) as well as the phenolic profile of different parts of Moroccan Ammi visnaga. The obtained results showed that the flower extract registered the highest amount of TPC (49,71 ± 0,12 mg GAE/g) and antioxidant activity TAC (62.07 ± 2.98 mg AAE/g). Concerning the phenolic profile, the most abundant individual phenolic compounds found in high amounts are chlorogenic acid (56.03%, 11.23% and 32.29 for stem, leaves and flowers, respectively), isorhamnetin_3-O-rutinoside (17.86%, 12.16% and 19.01% for stem, leaves and flowers, respectively), isorhamnetin_3-O-glucoside (15.96%, 10.69%, 10.37% for stem, leaves and flowers, respectively), quercetin_3-O-glucoside (1.61%, 21.11% and 2.85% for stem, leaves and flowers, respectively), kaempferol_3-O-glucoside (1.04%, 3.17% and 7.40% for stem, leaves and flowers, respectively) and isorhamnetin (0.57% 7.59% and 2.77% for stem, leaves and flowers, respectively). The outcomes of this study showed that different parts of A. visnaga contain several bioactive compounds with unique biological properties, so the data required further validation using experimental models.

Essential oils (EOs) are complex mixtures of volatile and semivolatile compounds (aldehydes, ketones, alcohols and esters) obtained usually by hydro-distillation from the dry or fresh plant material (seeds, leaves, stems, bark or wood) [1]. Most of the EOs are used in aroma therapy, plant protection (as pesticide), food industry (as food preservatives), perfume industry etc. Because of high demand, EOs are often counterfeited and the quality of EOs is usually controlled by gas chromatography. The aim of this paper is to analyze Origanum oil and its counterfeits by Raman spectroscopy. As an adulterant sunflower oil was used. Adulterated essential oils contained 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90% of sunflower oil. Raman spectra of pure Origano oil and its counterfeits were measured by Witec R300 system equipped with 532 nm laser. Visual inspection of raw spectra led to conclusion that band at 2851 1/cm is a marker for sunflower oil presence in Origanum oil. However, this band was obvious only when concentration of sunflower oil is higher than, or equal to 10% and could not be seen in lower concentration. In order to reveal presence of this this band in lower concentration, region between 2800 and 3000 1/cm was subjected to derivatization and then smoothing. Results displayed that Raman spectrea copy in combination with mathematical transformation of spectra can reveal small concentration of unwanted adulterant in Origanum oil.

AB  - Five undescribed dihydroflavonoid glycoside derivatives, namely albvisosides A‒E, together with two known compounds were isolated from the roots and stem leaves of Viscum album L. var. album. (European mistletoe). Their structures were determined by HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR, and ECD analysis. Albvisoside B exhibits significant inhibitory effect on hepatic lipid accumulation in HepG2 cells at very low concentrations (EC50: 0.7 nM). Using proteome integral solubility alteration assay, the direct targets or downstream effectors of albvisoside B were elucidated. As a result, 97 proteins were identified based on ligand-induced alterations in the protein thermal stability. Bioinformatics analysis indicated that albvisoside B primarily ameliorated oleic acid-induced lipid accumulation by regulating the selenoamino acids metabolism signaling pathway. RPL3, ADAM17, and RPL14 were likely to be involved in mediating the lipid-lowering effect of albvisoside B. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd

AB  - Alchemilla vulgaris L. (lady’s mantle) was used for centuries in Europe and Balkan countries for treatments of numerous conditions and diseases of the reproductive system, yet some of the biological activities of lady’s mantle have been poorly studied and neglected. The present study aimed to estimate the potential of A. vulgaris ethanolic extract from Southeast Serbia to prevent and suppress tumor development in vitro, validated by antioxidant, genoprotective, and cytotoxic properties. A total of 45 compounds were detected by UHPLC–HRMS analysis in A. vulgaris ethanolic extract. Measurement of antioxidant activity revealed the significant potential of the tested extract to scavenge free radicals. In addition, the analysis of micronuclei showed an in vitro protective effect on chromosome aberrations in peripheral human lymphocytes. A. vulgaris extract strongly suppressed the growth of human cell lines derived from different types of tumors (MCF-7, A375, A549, and HCT116). The observed antitumor effect is realized through the blockade of cell division, caspase-dependent apoptosis, and autophagic cell death. Our study has shown that Alchemilla vulgaris L. is a valuable source of bioactive compounds able to protect the subcellular structure from damage, thus preventing tumorigenesis as well as suppressing tumor cell growth. © 2022 by the authors.

AB  - Continental halophytic grasslands are known for performing of range of ecosystem services especially remarkable in the regions where they are much distributed – in arid and semi-arid areas. Continental halophytic grasslands of the Central and South-East Europe are not considered as favourable for arable farming, however, traditional animal husbandry plays a crucial role in maintaining biodiversity and preserving these natural habitats. The particular interest of this study is the assessment of the chemical composition of biomass and the quality of insufficiently studied halophytic grassland communities of the central Balkans. In addition, the differences in pastoral value were monitored along the geographical gradient, i.e., between grasslands situated in the Pannonian plain (grasslands of Alliance Puccinellion limosae) and those distributed on the south Serbia (Alliance Festucion pseudovinae). The study was carried out at 18 representative sites, focusing on the saline grasslands of the two distinct regions – on the north and on the south of Serbia. The obtained results show that the halophytic grasslands have satisfying quality characteristics (average values: dry matter - 93.67%, crude protein - 8.66%, cellulose - 30.36%, crude fat - 2.27%) compared with other studied grasslands of saline habitats. There were no significant differences in quality and chemical composition of grasslands of the two regions, despite differences in floristic composition, indicating that salinity is the key determinant for pastoral value of the halophytic vegetation. The certain variations were attributed to the specific floristic composition related to ecological conditions and halophytic community characteristics.

AB  - Five Balkan paprika varieties at physiological maturity were investigated by means of Raman spectroscopy in order to discriminate the differences which stemmed from their genetic variability since the plants were grown under the same experimental conditions. The spectra were obtained using the 532 nm wavelength. In an effort to find the best classification power, several pre-processing methods were applied: 1) baseline correction, unit vector normalization; 2) baseline correction, unit vector normalization and first Savitzky-Golay derivative; 3) baseline correction, unit vector normalization and second Savitzky-Golay derivative; 4) baseline correction, unit vector normalization and third Savitzky-Golay derivative. All of the pre-processing methods were followed by making PCA-LDA (Principal Component Analysis-Linear Discriminant Analysis), QDA (Quadratic Discriminant Analysis), and PLS-DA (Partial Least Square - Discriminant Analysis) classification models. QDA showed the best discrimination power (83.87–100% and 89.47–100% for the training and the test data, respectively), then PCA-LDA (0.00–100 and 0.00–100% for the training and the test data, respectively) and PLS-DA (19.35–100% and 0.00–100.00% for the training and the test data, respectively). The results pointed out the applicability of chemometric modeling associated with Raman spectroscopy in the assessment of nutritionally similar samples, such as the studied red paprika varieties.

AB  - A review research was conducted to provide an overview of the ethnobotanical knowledge of medicinal plants and traditional medical practices for the treatment of skin disorders in Albania, Cyprus, Greece, and Turkey. The geographical and ecological characteristics of the Balkan Peninsula and Mediterranean Sea, along with the historical connection among those countries, gave rise to the development of a distinct flora and to the uses of common medicinal plants against various skin ailments, respectively. The review focuses on the detailed study of 128 ethnobotanical surveys conducted in these areas and the species used for skin ailments were singled out. The analysis showed that 967 taxa belonging to 418 different genera and 111 different families are used in the treatment of skin related problems. The majority of the plants belong to the families of Asteraceae (11.7%), Lamiaceae (7.4%), Rosaceae (6.7%), Plantaginaceae (5.4%), and Malvaceae (3.8%). Their usage is internal or external to treat ailments such as wounds and burns (22.1%), hemorrhoids (14.7%), boils, abscesses, and furuncles (8.2%). Beside specific skin disorders, numerous species appeared to be used for their antifungal, antimicrobial, and antiseptic activity (9.1%). Literature evaluation highlighted that, the most commonly used species are Plantago major L. (Albania, Turkey), Hypericum perforatum L. (Greece, Turkey), Sambucus nigra L. (Cyprus, Greece), Ficus carica L. (Cyprus, Turkey), Matricaria chamomilla L. (Cyprus, Greece), and Urtica dioica L. (Albania, Turkey), while many medicinal plants reported by interviewees were common in all four countries. Finally, to relate this ethnopharmacological knowledge and trace its expansion and diversification through centuries, a comparison of findings was made with the use of the species mentioned in Dioscorides’ “De Materia Medica” for skin disorders. This work constitutes the first comparative study performed with ethnobotanical data for skin ailments gathered in the South Balkan and East Mediterranean areas. Results confirm the primary hypothesis that people in Albania, Cyprus, Greece, and Turkey are closely related in terms of traditionally using folk medicinal practices. Nevertheless, more field studies conducted, especially in remote places of these regions, can help preserve the traditional medical knowledge, aiming at the discovery of new phytotherapeutics against dermatological diseases.

AB  - Viscum album L. (Loranthaceae Juss.) is semi-parasitic evergreen shrub distributed in Europe, northwestern part of Africa and
Anatolia. The species is hosted by different woody gymnosperm and angiosperm species and it is known that host preference usually reflects in differences in morphological traits and possibly in phytochemical composition. Therefore, there are
different subspecies, out of three subspecies (V. album subsp. abietis (Wiesb.) Janchen, subsp. creticum N. Böhling & al. and subsp. austriacum (Wiesb.) Vollm.) occur most frequently on conifers while subsp. album is confined to deciduous host trees
and shrubs. In addition to religious and mystical uses, the mistletoe is used in the folk medicine for circulatory and respiratory
disorders and as an anticancer remedy.

AB  - : Carotenoids play an essential role in human health and they affect the perception of taste
and flavour which influence consumer preference. Carrot is one of the most important and consumed vegetables in the world, and a critical source of α- and β-carotene. Commonly grown carrot
cultivars (Maestro, Bolero, Natuna and Naval) were obtained from Begeč location in Serbia. Raman
spectroscopy was applied as a fast chemical evaluation tool which provided information about the
carrot cultivars differences. Raman spectra of the root of four carrot cultivars exhibited three
dominant carotenoid signals, mainly related to α- and β-carotene, in the three distinct regions: from
1510-1515 cm-1
, 1149-1154 cm-1 and 1001-1007 cm-1
. According to the PCA of the Raman spectra it is
indicated that the PC1 and PC2 are responsible for 94.06% of data variance and it suggested the
existence of two groups along PC1 axis. Variables with the positive and negative contribution along
PC1 indicate the differences between Maestro and Bolero from Natuna and Naval, which are
mainly based on carotenoids, phenolic compounds and in the lower extend in carbohydrates.

AB  - An ethnobotanical survey of the traditional use of the wild raspberry (Rubus ideaus) was conducted on nine sites in the regions of southwest (SWS) and southeast (SES) Serbia. The regions studied belong to mountainous rural areas in Serbia, mainly populated by Serbian people of the Orthodox faith. In total, 93 respondents were interviewed about the medicinal, food and cosmetic uses of the wild raspberry. In terms of plant parts in traditional use, the leaf and fruit are known to be used frequently. The dry leaf is more commonly used in the SES (78%) than in the SWS (25%) region. In the SWS region, the most frequent use of the wild raspberry leaf is linked to gastrointestinal disorders and prostate inflammation. In the SES region, the leaves are mostly used for the prevention and healing of gynecological disorders during both pregnancy and lactation. The local population of the SWS region uses the fruits mainly for the preparation of syrup juice (92%), fruit preserves (42%) and in desserts (62%), while in the SES area the fruits are most frequently used for the preparation of nonalcoholic (97.4%) and alcoholic beverages (35.9%). Our results provide some novel information on the use of the wild raspberry in Serbia and in the Balkans, such as for the treatment of prostate inflammation, use during breastfeeding and to alleviate inflammation of the eyes.

AB  - Carotenoids represent a large group of mainly red, orange, and yellow natural metabolites mainly involved in regulation of many metabolic processes. Carotenoids are beneficial for human health. Current study describes the importance, chemical composition and functioning of carotenoids. It is well known that carotenoids support pigments acting in light absorbance mechanisms during photosynthesis, and are known to protect the chlorophyll molecules from oxidative stress and reactive oxygen species (ROS) damage. Carotenoids are involved in signaling processes in plants, responses to environmental stresses, pollination, germination and reproduction, and development regulation. As nutrients of strong antioxidant activity that is primarily linked to their polyene molecular structure, the carotenoids are reported as immune-enhancement and anticancer agents, which are also involved in prevention of eye-, gastric and neurocognitive disorders, and in regulation of obesity and anti-ageing. Concern-ing the wide prospective applications of carotenoids as pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals, there are some critical aspects associated with carotenoids’ bioavailability and challenges in their bioengineering. This mostly refers to the needs for identification and cloning of genes responsible for carotenoid biosynthesis and transformation and related development of transgenic carotenoid-rich crops. In the recent years, technologies of micro-and nanoencapsulation have addressed the needs of carotenoid entrapping to enhance their bioavailability, solubility and chemical stability, and to ensure the target delivery and manifestation of their strong antioxidant and other biological activity. Among standard and some advanced analytic tools for carotenoid determination (e.g., High performance liquid chromatography-HPLC, Liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry-LC-MS, Ultra high performance liquid chromatography-UHPLC, High-performance thin-layer chromatography-HPTLC and others), the vibrational spectroscopy techniques, primarily Raman spectroscopy coupled with chemometric modeling, opened a new era in carotenoid research and application.

AB  - In this study, the vegetative anatomy of Artemisia umbelliformis subsp. eriantha, a Central European alpine glacial relict, wild-growing on Mt. Durmitor (Mon- tenegro) was examined for the first time. The aim was to investigate the general anatomy and particular anatomical traits which might have possible taxonomic value. Microscopic slides were prepared according to the standard histological procedures. The adventitious young root showed a primary structure, while the older root showed a secondary structure with a well-developed periderm on its surface. The rhizome showed a primary structure with elements of a secondary structure (periderm). The stem cross section is characterized by a round shape with a well-developed periderm at certain stages, and collateral vascular bundles ar- ranged in a circle. The petiole is concave in shape with a single-layered epidermis and parenchyma tissue with one large and two small vascular bundles. Druses and rhombohedral crystals are observed inside some petiole parenchyma cells. The leaf lobe cross section has an oblong-linear shape and is isolateral and amphistomatous in structure. The anticlinal walls of the leaf epidermal cells are sinuate. Secretory canals are present in the root cortex parenchyma (endodermal secretory canals) and the rhizome cortical parenchyma. The stem, petiole and leaf lack secretory canals. The stem and leaf are covered with T-shaped non-glandular and glandular trichomes. The taxonomic value of the analyzed characteristics is briefly discussed.

AB  - INTRODUCTION:
According to Codex Alimentarius (2001), “Honey is the natural sweet substance, produced by honeybees from the nectar of
plants or from secretions of living parts of plants, or excretions of plant-sucking insects on the living parts of plants, which
the bees collect, transform by combining with specific substances of their own, deposit, dehydrate, store and leave in honeycombs to ripen and mature”. Honey is mostly made up of sugars, as well as enzymes, amino acids, organic acids, vitamins,
aromatic compounds, minerals and carotenoids. It contains a lot of flavonoids and phenolic acids, which have a lot of biological effects and functions such as natural antioxidants, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. Its composition
is particularly variable, depending on its botanical and geographical origins Because of its exclusive flavor and high dietary
value, natural honey is more expensive than other sweeteners. This is the reason why honey is a target of adulteration. The
problem is that counterfeiting honey is relatively easy, but detection is difficult. Further, the authenticity of honey is a global
important problem for commercial producers and consumers. Accordingly, a fast and non-destructive method of detecting
counterfeits is needed. 
OBJECTIVES:
The aim of this paper is to verify the possibility of Raman spectroscopy and Support Vector Machine (SVM) for classification
of two different honeys and their fake duplicates. For this purpose, meadow and acacia honeys were selected.
METHOD / DESIGN:
Spectra of homemade and counterfeits honey were recorded using XploRA Raman spectrometer (Horiba Jobin Yvon). Raman scattering was excited by laser at a wavelength of 785 nm equipped with a 600 lines/mm grating; spectra were recorded
by applying exposure time 10 s and accumulated from 10 times scans, using 100% filter. Spectral resolution was 3 cm−1 and
autocalibration was done each time before recording of spectra by 520.47 cm−1 line of silicon. In order to assess a possible
sample inhomogeneity, thirty Raman spectra in the region from 200-3400 cm-1 were recorded for each sample. All spectra
were baseline-corrected, normalized and smoothed. After that PCA (Principal component analysis) was conducted and obtained PCs (first two PCs) served as a features for support vector machine (SVM) classification method. Data were divided into
training model (70 %) and training data (30 %). Pre-processing was done by Unscrambler X 10.4 software (CAMO software,
Norway). In order to determine the best shape of the hyperplane and decision boundary, several kernel function were used:
linear, radial basis and polynomial function. The SVM was conducted by Python and Scikit-learn package.
RESULTS:
Support vector machine showed high accuracy in classification of different honey samples. Accordingly, the best discrimination power showed SVM with polynomial function (100%), followed by radial basis (96.67%) and linear (81.82%).

AB  - Morpho-anatomical characteristics of Vaccinium myrtillus, V. uliginosum and V. vitis-idaea leaves from several sites of the Central Balkans were examined. The aim of this study was to investigate for the first time morpho-anatomical leaf traits of these species in the studied populations and to identify traits that follow a specific trend along the gradients of climate factors. Leaf traits that discriminate Vaccinium species were as follows: Depth of the adaxial cuticule (AdC), thickness of the palisade tissue (PT), thickness of the spongy tissue (ST), height of the abaxial epidermal cells (AbE), height of the abaxial cuticule (AbC) and leaf thickness (LT). Populations of V. myrtillus were characterized by the smallest, and populations of V. vitis-idaea by the highest values for AdC, PT, ST, AbE and LT. Additionally, AbC was significantly larger for V. uliginosum in comparison to two other species. On the basis of morpho-anatomical traits, intraspecific variability of the studied species was explored by Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Cluster Analysis (CA) and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). CA based on 10 morpho-anatomical traits showed that populations of V. myrtillus and V. uliginosum that grew at lower altitudes (characterized by higher mean annual temperature) are more similar to each other. Especially V. myrtillus was responsive to the elevational gradient and exhibited the highest plasticity in morpho-anatomical leaf traits. Populations of V. vitis-idaea had a different pattern of differentiation along the elevational gradient. CA showed that the populations at the lowest and at the highest altitudes were more similar according to the morpho-anatomical leaf traits, meaning that evergreen leaves were more resistant to environmental conditions. © Polish Academy of Sciences and Jagiellonian University, Cracow 2021.

AB  - The content of daidzein, genistein, formononetin, and biochanin A isoflavones was studied in natural populations of red and Hungarian clover, to estimate their impact on fodder quality and to determine directions in possible breeding programs. The study included 6 red clover (Trifolium pratense) and 6 Hungarian clover (Trifolium pannonicum) populations, collected in the central Balkans. The differences between the species and among the populations were analysed. The average content of total isoflavones was 1.393 mg g–1 and 0.487 mg g–1 of air dry matter in Hungarian clover, respectively. While the most prevailed isoflavone in red clover was biochanin A (46%), the Hungarian clover populations were rich in genistein (43%). The red clover leaves accumulated the highest content of isoflavones. The Hungarian clover flowers and leaves had an equal amount of isoflavones. The obtained values of the total isoflavones could not affect the overall nutrient quality and therefore, researched natural populations of two clover species could be considered for further breeding programs.

AB  - The main goal of the present study is validation of different chemometric models in Raman spectroscopic monitoring of different maturity phases of the red pepper fruit. Successive ripening stages commonly corresponding with different fruit coloration (green, green-brown, brown-red, and deep red) were assessed. The fruit maturation process in red pepper is related to alteration in composition and content of different primary and secondary metabolites, including the most represented carotenoid, the capsanthin. Raman microspectroscopy with wavelength of 532 nm was used to obtain the spectra of the pericarp of different maturation phases. Several multivariate classification methods, such as Principal Component Analysis–Linear Discriminant Analysis (PCA–LDA), Partial Least Squares-Discriminant Analysis (PLS-DA), and Soft Independent Modeling of Class Analogy (SIMCA) were tested to determine the model which best fits the target ripening phases related to composition and the content of the most represented carotenoids. Concerning different fruit ripening phases, several characteristic bands were obtained, including those at 1514–1517, 1151, and 1003 cm−1, all assigned to carotenoids with nine conjugated double bonds in the main polyene chain (e.g., lutein, beta carotene, beta cryptoxanthin, zeaxanthin, capsorubin, and capsanthin). All tested classification chemometric models had a high rate of prediction accuracy (between 95% and 100%). The SIMCA showed the best result, probably because of using a different algorithm compared with the other tested models.

AB  - Effects of genotype and Bradyrhizobium inoculation on morphological traits, grain yield and protein content of soybean varieties.- Genetika, Vol 53, No.2, 911-925. Soybean crop production in Serbia involves seed inoculation by N-fixing bacteria just before sowing time. The main objective of the current work was to assess the impact of the genotype and inoculation on range of morphological and yield traits of soybean (Glycine max L. Merrill), as well as the total protein content. The experiment was conducted on chernozem soil, where soybean was previously grown. The six local varieties were used, where each variety was sown, in three replicates for both inoculated and non-inoculated treatment. The following morphological traits were analysed: the plant height, number of lateral branches, distance to the first pod, number of pods per plant, pods (containing seeds) weight per plant, seed weight per plant, and the total grain yield. The total protein content in seeds was determined by standard analytical method, while subtle differences in qualitative protein composition were assessed using Raman spectroscopy. The total protein content varied from 39.6 to 42.15 %. Performance of inoculation resulted in an increase of the plant height and the distance to the first pod, although not in all tested varieties. The highest and the lowest plant height values were observed for non-inoculated variety Dana (59.23cm) and Sava (80.03cm), respectively. The effect of genotype was much more expressed causing differences in almost all tested characters, except for the total protein content. However, Raman spectroscopy analyses revealed distinct discrimination among surveyed varieties, and differences between inoculated and non-inoculated plants in qualitative composition of seed proteins.
