This study was conducted to determine the composition of sugars and organic acids in root exudates of Miscanthus × Giganteus and to find out if microorganisms of the rhizospheric soil are limited by mi­ne­ral nutrients. The following sugars and organic acids were determined in root exudates of this plant: glucose, saccharose, and acids such as succinic, propionic, citric, tartaric, malic, oxalic, ascorbic, acetic and fumaric. Respiration of soil from rhizosphere of Miscanthus × Giganteus was found to be limited by N, K and Ca. Respiration rate after application of mineral compounds increased in following orther: nitrate > calcium > potassium > ammonium, giving approx. 165, 99, 52 and 31 % increase compared to control. Further research is necessary to determine the role of plant nutrients from the point of their limitations for rhizosphere microorganisms, to broader very rare knowledges in this topic, especially for polluted soils to stimulate efficiency of phytoremediations.

The polymethoxyflavonoids nobiletin and tangeretin are isolated from peels of shekwasha ( Citrus depressa Hayata) and ponkan ( Citrus reticulata Blanco). These natural products possess biological activities, including anticancer and anti-inflammation properties. This report describes an efficient method for the extraction and isolation of nobiletin and tangeretin from citrus peels using 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium methylphosphonate ([C2mim][(MeO)(H)PO2]) and centrifugation/decantation. The results showed that the extraction yield of nobiletin and tangeretin using [C2mim][(MeO)(H)PO2]/organic solvent (1:1 w/w) was 1.4 to 1.6 times higher than that using organic solvent. This extraction method is expected to be applicable for obtaining other organic compounds from natural sources.
