K. Bhutya ISBN-978-93-8369-255-2; Year-2018; Pages- 255; Price - `3250/- About the Book Proper idenficaon of medicinal plants is sll a great problem at this me. It has also drawn the aenon from common men in general and scholars in the medical streams. In the light of the above, the curiosity about the sources of the medicines, medicinal plants in most of the cases, has drawn considerable interest among all quarters of the medical science. In addion, in the absence of proper knowledge related to the idenficaon of medicinal plants, many plants remained either unidenfied or wrongly idenfied. In this book, an aempt is made to fill the above idenfied gaps. It is my firm belief that this book will be of immense use to Ayurveda experts, teachers, students of post-graduates and under-graduates Ayurvedic courses, researchers, students of botany, sciensts, pharmacologists, pharmaceucal organizaons, pharmacists, biochemists, medical men and even common men. vkS"k/k æO;ksa dk f=nks"k xq.k foospu jes'k dq ekj HkR;kw iqLrd ds ckjs esa vk;qosZn dk ewy vk/kkj vkS"k/kh; ouLifr;k¡ vFkok æO;xq.k foKku gSA vkS"k/k æO;ksa ds okr] fiRr ,oa dQ ds Åij ,oa buds 7&7 m".k] :{kkfn xq.kksa ij gksus okys izHkkoksa dks /;ku esa j[k dj gh vkS"kf/k;ksa dk fuekZ.k fd;k tkrk gSA fdUrq ;fn ge ns[ksa rks Kkr gksxk fd v'oxU/kk] ,j.M] 'krkojh] ?k`r] rSy] n'kewy] fuxqZ.Mh] ek"k] vtok;u bR;kfn okruk'kd vkS"k/k æO;ksa dk okruk'ku izHkko] ek=kRed ,oa xq.kkRed :i ls ,d tSlk ugha gSA ,slk gh fiRruk'kd o dQuk'kd æO;ksa ds f=nks"k o muds xq.kksa ij iM+us okys izHkko dk ek=kRed ,oa xq.kkRed ;k rj re Hksn dk o.kZu fd;k x;k gSA izLrqr iqLrd esa fuEu fcUnqvksa dk o.kZu fd;k x;k gS& 1- vkS"k/k æO; dk ukeA 2- vkS"k/k æO; ds laLd`r ukeA 3- lafgrkvksa ds egkd"kk; vFkok xq.kksa dk mYys[kA 4- vkS"k/k æO; dk fofHkUu L=ksRl ij izHkko dk mYys[kA 5- vkS"k/k æO; ds jl] oh;Z] foikd dk 'kkL=h; mYys[k ,oa tgka budk 'kkL=h; mYys[k ugha miyC/k gksrk ogka mldh iwfrZA 6- vkS"k/k ISBN-978-81-7233-958-6; Year-2016; æO; ds okr] fiRr] dQ ds uk'kRo dk mYys[k ,oa izHkko dh xzsfMaxA 7- vkS"k/k æO; ds okr] fiRr] dQ ds Pages- 555; Price - ` 950/- dkjRo dk mYys[k ,oa izHkko dh xzsfMaxA 8- vkS"k/k æO; ds fofHkUu lafgrk xzUFkksa ,oa fu?k.Vqvksa o vU; 'kkL=h; iqLrdksa esa uke ,oa xq.kksa ds lEiw.kZ lUnHkZ 'yksdksa dk laxzgA 9- vkS"k/k æO;ksa ds okr] fiRr] dQ ds 7&7 xq.kksa] dqy 21 xq.kksa ds uk'kRo dh xzsfMax dh lwfp;kaA 10- fofHkUu L=ksrksn`f"V esa dk;Zdkjh vkS"k/k æO;ksa dh lwfpA 11- o`gR=;h ds 'kkL=h; lUnHkZ] f=nks"k] xq.k o jlksa dsA 12- vkS"k/k æO;ksa ds f=nks"k uk'kRo dh rj rerk Hksn ls lwfp;k¡A 13- f=nks"kksa ds fofHkUu xq.kksa ij vkS"k/k æO;ksa ds izHkko dk rj re Hksn ls lwfp;k¡A 14- vkS"k/k æO;ksa dk jl] xq.k] oh;Z] foikd ds foikd ds foospu dh lwfp;k¡A 15- ;wukuh vkS"k/k'kkL= ls rqyukA Can't Find Scientific Publishers?Call/SMS +91-99292-72222 To Know More, Please Visit www.scientificpub.com or mail us at info@scientificpub.com Price are subject to change without notice.

Box 3708, Nepal *Author for Correspondence ABSTRACT A tree belonging to Ziziphus (Rhamnaceae) from Timal region of Kavrepalanchok district, Central Nepal is illustrated and described as a new species Ziziphus budhensis KR. Bhattarai & Pathak, a narrow endemic from central Nepal. This species did not match with the Ziziphus species reported from this region. Although the new species is similar to Z. montana W.W.Sm. from Yunan, China with trinerved leaves lacking conspicuous secondary veins, it differs tree habit, shape and size of leaves, length of peduncle, carpel, and shape and size of fruits and seeds as well as distribution range. Detailed taxonomic description, illustration, photographs, ecology and its economic and religious value are discussed. Keywords: Ziziphus, Rhamnaceae, Timal, New Species, Endemic, Nepal INTRODUCTION Ziziphus has about 100 species reported from warm-temperate and subtropical regions throughout the world (Mabberley 2008), among them 17 species are from India (Bhandari and Bhansali, 2000), 12 species from China (Zao, 2007), seven species from Bhutan (Grierson and Long, 1991) and six species are already reported from Nepal (NHPL, 2011). The unidentified species belongs to genus Ziziphus and family Rhamnaceae. Due to its economical importance local people from the Timal region of Kavreplanchok district brought material to the National Herbarium and Plant Laboratories (KATH) for identification.

    Sugarcane 1 Sugarcane Sugarcane Cut sugar cane Scientific classification Kingdom: Plantae (unranked): Monocots (unranked): Commelinids Order: Poales Family: Poaceae Subfamily: Panicoideae Tribe: Andropogoneae Genus: Saccharum L. Selected species Sugarcane 2 Saccharum arundinaceum Saccharum barberi Saccharum bengalense Saccharum edule Saccharum munja Saccharum officinarum Saccharum procerum Saccharum ravennae Saccharum robustum Saccharum sinense Saccharum spontaneum Sugarcane, or Sugar cane, is any of six to 37 species (depending on which taxonomic system is used) of tall perennial true grasses of the genus Saccharum, tribe Andropogoneae. Native to the warm temperate to tropical regions of South Asia, they have stout jointed fibrous stalks that are rich in sugar, and measure two to six metres (6 to 19 feet) tall. All sugar cane species interbreed, and the major commercial cultivars are complex hybrids. Sugarcane belongs to the grass family (Poaceae), an economically important seed plant family that includes maize, wheat, rice, and sorghum and many forage crops. The main product of sugarcane is sucrose, which accumulates in the stalk internodes. Sucrose, extracted and purified in specialized mill factories, is used as raw material in human food industries or is fermented to produce ethanol. Ethanol is produced on a large scale by the Brazilian sugarcane industry. Sugarcane is the world's largest crop.[1] In 2010, FAO estimates it was cultivated on about 23.8 million hectares, in more than 90 countries, with a worldwide harvest of 1.69 billion tonnes. Brazil was the largest producer of sugar cane in the world. The next five major producers, in decreasing amounts of production, were India, China, Thailand, Pakistan and Mexico.
