Current studies revealed the ethnobotanical importance of the threatened flora of Gujranwala region, Punjab, Pakistan including Gujranwala, Kamoki and Wazirabad Townships. This region is facing rapid expansion of industrialization and urbanization, therefore it is prime time to document and conserve it before it is lost. 100 different species belonging to 52 families were recorded through questionnaire and interviews. Steps for preservation, classification, quantitative indices and phytochemical composition were performed. Asteraceae was the dominant family with ten species. 55% of these represent herbs, 27% shrubs, 15% trees, 2% grasses and 1% weeds whereas 85% plant species were wild and 15% were cultivated. Leaves are the most frequently used parts 77%, followed by stem 12%, roots 12%, flowers 20%, rhizome 17%, seed oil 18%, and so on. As common remedies they are used as diuretics 26%, against fever 25%, laxatives 23%, emollients 22%, against constipation 20%, blood purifiers 20%, and against cough and cold 17% etc. RFC was recorded from 0.001 to 0.78. Informant consensus factor (FCI) ranged from 10-40, with the lowest value belonging to Cucumus melo which is used for treating eczema, dysuria, leucorrhea and as laxative whereas the highest 37 for Indigofera heterantha and Quercus incana reported to be used for hemorrhagic septicemia and joint pain.

    Selective cytotoxicity of Crotalaria agatiflora subspecies agatiflora Schweinf by Karlien le Roux Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of: Master of Science (Medicinal Plant Science) In the Faculty of Natural and Agricultural Sciences University of Pretoria Pretoria South Africa Supervisor: Prof. Namrita Lall 16 February 2011 © University of Pretoria Declaration I declare that this dissertation submitted at the University of Pretoria for the degree: MSc. Medicinal Plant Science has not been submitted by me for a degree at any other University or institution of higher education. ---------------------------- K. le Roux ii © University of Pretoria ABSTRACT Crotalaria species have been widely used in Chinese traditional medicine to treat several types of internal cancers. Crotalaria agatiflora is used as a medicinal plant in several African countries for the treatment of bacterial and viral infections as well as cancer. Researchers have found this species to relieve spasms and reduce blood pressure. The aims of the study were to investigate the potential anti-cancer as well as cancer preventative activity of C. agatiflora subspp. agatiflora and ultimately to evaluate the possible mechanism of action. Water and ethanolic extracts were prepared after which the cytotoxcity of the samples were determined on four cancerous and one noncancerous cell lines, using XTT (Sodium 3’ –[1-(phenyl amino-carbonyl)-3,4-tetrazolium]-bis-[4-methoxy-6-nitro) benzene sulfonic acid hydrate) colorimetric assay. Antioxidant activity was determined using DPPH (1,1-Diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl). Light microscopy (eosin and hematozylin staining), flow cytometry (Annexin-V and propidium iodide) and micro-Raman spectroscopy were used to evaluate the mechanism of action of the ethanol leaves extract of C.

They can possess mutagenic, teratogenic, cancerogenic and fetotoxic properties. One pathway of a human intoxication can be the use of medicinal plants which contain toxic PAs. The Traditional Indian medicine – in particular Ayurveda – is a popular and well-known healing system. Within this system several PA-containing plants are used which, on account of their PAlevel, represent a severe health risk. In general, it is not recommended to use plants containing those toxic compounds. 1.

  • Voi. LIV ANNALI DI BOTANICA 1996 Embryology of Paracalyx
    Voi. LIV ANNALI DI BOTANICA 1996 Embryology of Paracalyx (Fabaceae) A shrafunnisa and T. P ullaiah Department of Botany, Sri Krishnadevaraya University, Anantapur 515 003, A.P. India Abstract - Embrylogy of Paracalyx scariosus (Roxb.) Ali has been investigated. Anthers are tetrasporangiate and anther wall comprises of epidermis, endothecium, one middle layer and glandular tapetum. Cytokinesis is of the simultaneous type and pollen tetrads are tetrahedral, decussate and isobilateral. Pollen grains are shed at two-celled stage. Along with normal microspores abnormal spores with variable number of supernumerary nuclei have been met with. The ovule is compylotropous, bitegmic and crassinucellate. Megaspore tetrad is linear and embryo sac development is of the Polygonum type. Endosperm development follows Nuclear type. Embryo development follows Onagrad type. I ntroduction The Fabaceae (nom. alter. Leguminosae) comparises 650 genera and 18000 species (Polhill and Raven, 1981). Prakash (1987), who gave an excellent review on the embryology of the family, remarked that reasonably complete embryological data are available for 35 genera studied or about 5% of the total leguminous genera. No study has been made on any embryological aspect in roughly 83% of the genera. Hence the present study was undertaken and the present report deals with the embryology of Paracalyx scariosus (Roxb.) Ali (- Cylista scariosa Roxb.). M aterial and M ethods Buds, flowers and fruits at different stages of development were collected from Vikarabad forests in Ranga Reddy District in Andhra Pradesh and fixed in formalin-acetic-alcohol (F.A.A.). Dehydration and infiltration was done in Tertiary butyl alcohol and embedded in paraffin wax. The material was sectioned at a thickness of 4-8 pm and stained in Delafield’s hematoxylin.
