KAMRUL HAQUE , SALEH AHAMMAD KHAN, SARDER NASIR UDDIN AND SHAYLA SHARMIN SHETU Department of Botany, Jahangirnagar University, Savar, Dhaka 1342, Bangladesh Keywords: Checklist; Angiosperms; Rajkandi Reserve Forest; Moulvibazar. Abstract This study was carried out to provide the baseline data on the composition and distribution of the angiosperms and to assess their current status in Rajkandi Reserve Forest of Moulvibazar, Bangladesh. The study reports a total of 549 angiosperm species belonging to 123 families, 98 (79.67%) of which consisting of 418 species under 316 genera belong to Magnoliopsida (dicotyledons), and the remaining 25 (20.33%) comprising 132 species of 96 genera to Liliopsida (monocotyledons). Rubiaceae with 30 species is recognized as the largest family in Magnoliopsida followed by Euphorbiaceae with 24 and Fabaceae with 22 species; whereas, in Lilliopsida Poaceae with 32 species is found to be the largest family followed by Cyperaceae and Araceae with 17 and 15 species, respectively. Ficus is found to be the largest genus with 12 species followed by Ipomoea, Cyperus and Dioscorea with five species each. Rajkandi Reserve Forest is dominated by the herbs (284 species) followed by trees (130 species), shrubs (125 species), and lianas (10 species). Woodlands are found to be the most common habitat of angiosperms. A total of 387 species growing in this area are found to be economically useful. 25 species listed in Red Data Book of Bangladesh under different threatened categories are found under Lower Risk (LR) category in this study area.

Author: Sirichamorn, Yotsawate Title: Systematics and biogeography of Aganope, Brachypterum and Derris (Fabaceae) in Asia Issue Date: 2013-11-28 Chapter 1 General Introduction Aganope, Brachypterum and Derris: Systematics and Biogeography - Chapter 1 General Introduction One of the major problems left in the classification of tribe Millettieae of the Leguminosae (Fabaceae) concerns the Derris-like taxa. Up to now every researcher had different solutions, some would unite all taxa into a single genus, others divided them into several genera. The purpose of this thesis is to tackle the problems at various levels and from different viewpoints. The species will be defined first, after which their phylogeny based on molecular and morphological data will be inferred. The resulting phylogeny will form the basis for a new and less subjective 1 classification. Finally, the biogeographic history of the taxa will be analysed. This General Introduction introduction provides general information of palaeotropic Derris-like taxa. General morphology, ecology and utility of the Asian Derris-like taxa “Derris-like taxa” contain members of the tribe Millettieae (Fabaceae), characterized by their imparipinnate leaves with opposite leaflets and typical flat, usually winged, indehiscent pods. The plants have a pantropical distribution. According to the most recent generic circumscription proposed by Adema (2000), the Asian Derris-like taxa consist of the genera Aganope Miq., Derris Lour. [including Brachypterum (Wight & Arn.) Benth.] and Paraderris (Miq.) Geesink. Derris-like taxa are sometimes very similar because of their overlapping morphological features. Some species also show a high variation in morphological characters and a wide distribution.

First print: July 2007 For copies write to: Forest Resources Officer FAO Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific Maliwan Mansion Phra Atit Road, Bangkok 10200 Thailand E-mail: [email protected] ii FOREWORDS Large extents of the coastlines of Southeast Asian countries were once covered by thick mangrove forests. In the past few decades, however, these mangrove forests have been largely degraded and destroyed during the process of development. The negative environmental and socio-economic impacts on mangrove ecosystems have led many government and non- government agencies, together with civil societies, to launch mangrove conservation and rehabilitation programmes, especially during the 1990s. In the course of such activities, programme staff have faced continual difficulties in identifying plant species growing in the field. Despite a wide availability of mangrove guidebooks in Southeast Asia, none of these sufficiently cover species that, though often associated with mangroves, are not confined to this habitat.

  • Pharmacological Profile of Mangrove Endophytes - a Review
    Innovare International Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences Academic Sciences ISSN- 0975-1491 Vol 7, Issue 1, 2015 Review Article PHARMACOLOGICAL PROFILE OF MANGROVE ENDOPHYTES - A REVIEW SALINI G Amrita School of Biotechnology, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Amritapuri, Kollam 690525, Kerala, India. Email: [email protected] Received: 25 Oct 2014 Revised and Accepted: 23 Nov 2014 ABSTRACT Natural products play a key role in meeting the global demand for new pharmacologically active substances. Since marine and coastal environments possess considerable biological diversity having added reasons to produce secondary metabolites, they are looked upon as potential candidates for drug discovery. Mangroves inhabit the transition zone between land and sea; therefore it is assumed that they would produce outstanding natural products on their own. The unique environment of mangrove forests harbors diverse groups of microorganisms, including the endophytes. Endophytes, which live asymptomatically within living plant tissues, are an under explored group of microorganisms and hence studies on these microbes from unique ecosystems offer resources with immense biotechnological potential. This article attempts to give an insightful review on the efforts currently being made to explore the bioactive compounds produced by mangrove endophytes. Keywords: Endophyte, Mangrove, Secondary metabolite, Bioactive compound. INTRODUCTION protection mechanism of the endophytes is exerted directly by releasing metabolites to attack any antagonists, or indirectly by Natural products, generally secondary metabolites produced by inducing host defense mechanisms[1]. Endophytes can also promote living organisms, present an alternative route to address the ever plant growth through different mechanisms like production of increasing need for new drugs, because of their low production phytohormones[8], synthesis of siderophores[9], nitrogen fixation, costs, novelty and structural diversity.

Thus, a replacement of these synthetics by antioxidant extractions from various foods has been proposed. More than 8000 different phenolic compounds have been characterized; fruits and vegetables are the prime sources of natural antioxidants. In order to extract, measure, and identify bioactive compounds from a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, researchers use multiple techniques and methods. This review includes a brief description of a wide range of different assays. The antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer properties of phenolic natural products from fruits and vegetables are also discussed. Keywords: antimicrobial; antioxidants; medicinal plants; BHT 1. Introduction Many antioxidant compounds can be found in fruits and vegetables including phenolics, carotenoids, anthocyanins, and tocopherols [1]. Approximately 20% of known plants have been used in pharmaceutical studies, impacting the healthcare system in positive ways such as treating cancer and harmful diseases [2].
