These constituents are used to treat diseases of skin and throat since ancient times. Herein we have investigated the effect of different constituents of mango stem on NFκB, which is the protein uplifted in inflammation. Different constituents show high binding affinity with NFκB calculated in terms of binding energy and stability in the cavity of the protein. Introduction: MangiferaIndica, (mango tree) is one of the flowering plant species belonging to the Anacardiaceae family. This family include about 30 tropical fruiting trees with the genus Mangifera, such as Mangifera altissima, Mangifera persiciformis, Mangifera caesia, Mangifera camptosperma, Mangifera casturi, Mangifera decandra, Mangifera foetida, Mangifera indica, Mangifera griffithii, Mangifera laurina, Mangifera kemanga, Mangifera macrocarpa, Mangifera longipes, Mangifera odorata, Mangifera mekongensis, Mangifera quadrifi da, Mangifera pajang, Mangifera similis, Mangifera siamensis, Mangifera sylvactia, Mangifera torquenda, Mangifera zeylanica, Mangifera applanata,Mangifera swintonioides[1].

  • The Lawa River P.O
    INSTITUTE OF CURRENT WORLD AFFAIRS JHM-12 BACK TO THE LAWA RIVER P.O. Box 206 Kalimantan Mr. Peter Bird Martin Samarinda, East Executive Director Indonesia Institute of Current World Affairs April 1988 4 West Wheelock Street Hanover, New Hampshire 03755 USA Dear Peter, Two days and a night aboard the Aspian Noor, slowly chugging up the Mahakam and Pahu Rivers last December were enough to get me excited about the wind and speed of myfirst ride on the Kalhold Utama Company's logging road. Racing over smooth-packed earth in the night, the logging truck seemed like transport from another world. The driver, a wiry chain-smoker from South Sulawesi (the island east of Borneo) relished driving this road at night, headlights flashing yellow, red, or green in the eyes of nocturnal creatures stunned by the sudden brightness. He got poetic, talking about the road flowing through the jungle like a river, and pointing out how the treetops' deep black silhouettes stood out against the brilliant edge of the Milky Way. In the hour-long rush whoosh from the company's Pahu River landing place to the main logging camp, 69 kilometers over rolling hills to the south, the road began to seem almost miraculous to me, powerful technology in the starlight. When returned to the area almost three months later, any magic the company road held for me evaporated under the intensity of a mid-afternoon sun. The road was no river, but a heat-reflecting equatorial desert cutting through the ramains of logged-over forest interspersed with swidden fields of ripe padi.

  • Collection and Evaluation of Under-Utilized Tropical and Subtropical Fruit Tree Genetic Resources in Malaysia
    J]RCAS International Symposium Series No. 3: 27-38 Session 1-3 27 Collection and Evaluation of Under-Utilized Tropical and Subtropical Fruit Tree Genetic Resources in Malaysia WONG, Kai Choo' Abstract Fruit tree genetic resources in Malaysia consist of cultivated and wild species. The cul­ tivated fruit trees number more than 100 species of both indigenous and introduced species. Among these fruits, some are popular and are widely cultivated throughout the country while others are less known and grown in small localized areas. The latter are the under-utilized fruit species. Apart from these cultivated fruits, there is also in the Malaysian natural forest a diversity of wild fruit tree species which produce edible fruits but are relatively unknown and unutilized. Many of the under-utilized and unutilized fruit species are known to show economic potential. Collection and evaluation of some of these fruit tree genetic resources have been carried out. These materials are assessed for their potential as new fruit trees, as sources of rootstocks for grafting and also as sources of germplasm for breeding to improve the present cultivated fruit species. Some of these potential fruit tree species within the gen­ era Artocarpus, Baccaurea, Canarium, Dimocarpus, Dialium, Durio, Garcinia, Litsea, Mangif era, Nephelium, Sa/acca, and Syzygium are highlighted. Introduction Malaysian fruit tree genetic resources comprise both cultivated and wild species. There are more than 100 cultivated fruit species of both major and minor fruit crops. Each category includes indigenous as well as introduced species. The major cultivated fruit crops are well known and are commonly grown throughout the country.

    Plant Archives Vol. 14 No. 1, 2014 pp. 87-96 ISSN 0972-5210 AN UPDATED ACCOUNT OF THE NAME CHANGES OF THE DICOTYLEDONOUS PLANT SPECIES INCLUDED IN THE VOL: I (1934- 36) & VOL: II (1938) OF “FLORA OF ASSAM” Rajib Lochan Borah Department of Botany, D.H.S.K. College, Dibrugarh - 786 001 (Assam), India. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Changes in botanical names of flowering plants are an issue which comes up from time to time. While there are valid scientific reasons for such changes, it also creates some difficulties to the floristic workers in the preparation of a new flora. Further, all the important monumental floras of the world have most of the plants included in their old names, which are now regarded as synonyms. In north east India, “Flora of Assam” is an important flora as it includes result of pioneering floristic work on Angiosperms & Gymnosperms in the region. But, in the study of this flora, the same problems of name changes appear before the new researchers. Therefore, an attempt is made here to prepare an updated account of the new names against their old counterpts of the plants included in the first two volumes of the flora, on the basis of recent standard taxonomic literatures. In this, the unresolved & controversial names are not touched & only the confirmed ones are taken into account. In the process new names of 470 (four hundred & seventy) dicotyledonous plant species included in the concerned flora are found out. Key words : Name changes, Flora of Assam, Dicotyledonus plants, floristic works.

  • Genetic Inheritance in the Isolects of Kotawaringin Barat, Kalimantan
    Genetic Inheritance in the Malayic languages of Kotawaringin Barat, Indonesia by Chad K. White (Under the direction of Jared Klein) Abstract This thesis will attempt to classify the languages of Kotawaringin Barat, Kalimantan Tengah, Indonesia using comparative analysis and dialectology. Comparison will be made with Proto-Malayic and other comparative dialectal studies to determine if the KoBar lan- guages are autochthonous to Borneo or part of a back-migration of Malay languages from outside Borneo. If they are autochthonous, then I will seek to place them in the network of Malayic dialects based on phonological changes. Finally, the internal relationships of the languages will be determined based on sound changes. It is my hope that this paper will move forward the study of Malayic languages on Borneo.

Email: [email protected] Received: 17 September 2020 Accepted: 20 October 2020 ABSTRACT As a tropical archipelagic country, Indonesia’s forests possess high biodiversity, including its wide variety of wood species. Valorisation of biomolecules released from woody plant extracts has been gaining attractive interests since in the middle of 20th century. This paper focuses on a literature review of the potential valorisation of biomole- cules released from twenty wood species exploited in Indonesia. It has revealed that depending on the natural origin of the wood species studied and harmonized with the ethnobotanical and ethnomedicinal knowledge, the extractives derived from the woody plants have given valuable heritages in the fields of medicines and phar- macology. The families of the bioactive compounds found in the extracts mainly consisted of flavonoids, stilbenes, stilbenoids, lignans, tannins, simple phenols, terpenes, terpenoids, alkaloids, quinones, and saponins. In addition, biological or pharmacological activities of the extracts/isolated phytochemicals were recorded to have antioxidant, antimicrobial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetes, anti-dysentery, anticancer, analgesic, anti-malaria, and anti-Alzheimer activities.
