The sedge species belonging to Cyperaceae has 106 genera with 5,387 species in the word. These sedges can be used as decoction, paste, powder or poultice in the treatment of various diseases, such as; tumor, heart diseases, malaria fever, stomachache, dysentery, etc. This research was conducted on 25 May to 25 July 2019 and is located in the Mataram University area, Mataram city, Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. The results of this study found 5 genera with 7 species, namely genus Bulbostylis found 1 species namely Bulbostylis barbata Kunth; Cyperus 3 species namely Cyperus cyproides (L.) Kuntze.

Departmentof Botany,Utkal University, Bhubaneswar,India. 751004 ReceivedApril 25, 1977 During the recent years a few workers have reported chromosome numbers of various members of the family Cyperaceae from different regions of India. Notable among them are Sanyal (1972), Sanyal and Sharma (1972). Rath and Patnaik (1974a and 1974b), Nijalingappa (1975) and Mehra and Sachdev (1975). A survey of all these reports reveals that not only most of the genera are characterised by series of aneuploid numbers but there is great disparity in the findings of different workers in respect of chromosome numbers for the same species. Moreover certain genera have not been cytologically worked out. This necessitates further study in the family in a more broad based plan. As a continuation of our previous report (Rath and Patnaik 1974a) of chromo some numbers in 24 species of the family, meiotic studies of another 45 species are presented here in the light of which certain taxonomic problems are discussed. Materials and methods Plants were collected from various parts of the State of Orissa and fixings col lected in the field were generally worked out immediately as even 2-3 days of storing in the usual procedure of fixing in acetic-alcohol (1:3) and transfering to 70% ethyl alcohol induce excessive staining of the cytoplasm. Addition of chloro form to acetic acid and ethyl alcohol mixture though proved slightly better it did not very much improve the staining quality.

PRADHAN AND RAJ B. MOHANTY Department of Botany, Chandbali College, Chandbali, Bhadrak-756133, Odisha, India Keywords: Bhadrak district; Diversity; Ecosystem services; Traditional medicines; Weed. Abstract This study consolidated our understanding on the weeds of Bhadrak district, Odisha, India based on both bibliographic sources and field studies. A total of 277species of weed taxa belonging to 198 genera and 65 families are reported from the study area. About 95.7% of these weed taxa are distributed across six major superorders; the Lamids and Malvids constitute 43.3% with 60 species each, followed by Commenilids (56 species), Fabids (48 species), Companulids (23 species) and Monocots (18 species). Asteraceae, Poaceae, and Fabaceae are best represented. Forbs are the most represented (50.5%), followed by shrubs (15.2%), climber (11.2%), grasses (10.8%), sedges (6.5%) and legumes (5.8%). Annuals comprised about 57.5% and the remaining are perennials. As per Raunkiaer classification, the therophytes is the most dominant class with 135 plant species (48.7%).The use of weed for different purposes as indicated by local people is also discussed. This study provides a comprehensive and updated checklist of the weed speciesof Bhadrak district which will serve as a tool for conservation of the local biodiversity. Introduction India, a country with heterogeneous landforms, shows great variation from one region to another in respect of climate, altitude and vegetation.The country has 60 agroeco-subregions and each agro-eco-subregion has been divided into agro-eco-units at the district level for developing long term land use strategies (Gajbhiye and Mandal, 2006).

Light microscopic studies on pollen grains of selected Cyperaceae species from southern Tamil Nadu, India: Relevance in Holocene sediment studies. The Palaeobotanist 57(1-2) : 227-233. Seven species of Cyperaceae have been selected for quantitative pollen morphological studies through light microscopy as a practical application in the reconstruction of Late Holocene vegetation. Such a study has been taken up because this large family has so far been referred to as one pollen type by the palynologists most of whom have attributed wet lands/ marsh lands as the habitat of the members. Though most of the members are found in wet lands, some are found in drier habitats also, making it essential that this family be subclassified, for which a preliminary attempt has been made in this paper in the study area in southern Tamil Nadu, India, that offers a diversity of habitats. The species chosen are Bulbostylis barbata (Rottb.) Kunth ex Clarke, Cyperus compressus Linn., C. rotundus Linn., Fimbristylis argentea (Rottb.) Vahl., F. ovata (Burm. f.) Kern, Kyllinga bulbosa Beauv. and Scirpus articulatus Linn. Two subtypes were identified among these seven species, with Fimbristylis having distinctive pollen morphological characters.

Haines - Beard Department of Agriculture of the lion Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service November 26, 2014 Version 1 Herbarium specimen of Bulbostylis hispidula from Mozambique showing plant habit (Hyde et al., 2014). Agency Contact: Plant Epidemiology and Risk Analysis Laboratory Center for Plant Health Science and Technology Plant Protection and Quarantine Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service United States Department of Agriculture 1730 Varsity Drive, Suite 300 Raleigh, NC 27606 Weed Risk Assessment for Bulbostylis hispidula Introduction Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ) regulates noxious weeds under the authority of the Plant Protection Act (7 U.S.C. § 7701-7786, 2000) and the Federal Seed Act (7 U.S.C. § 1581-1610, 1939). A noxious weed is defined as “any plant or plant product that can directly or indirectly injure or cause damage to crops (including nursery stock or plant products), livestock, poultry, or other interests of agriculture, irrigation, navigation, the natural resources of the United States, the public health, or the environment” (7 U.S.C. § 7701-7786, 2000). We use weed risk assessment (WRA)—specifically, the PPQ WRA model (Koop et al., 2012)—to evaluate the risk potential of plants, including those newly detected in the United States, those proposed for import, and those emerging as weeds elsewhere in the world. Because the PPQ WRA model is geographically and climatically neutral, it can be used to evaluate the baseline invasive/weed potential of any plant species for the entire United States or for any area within it.
