Ganie1, Surender S. Gulia1, Surender S. Yadav1* *Corresponding author: Abs tract Xanthium strumerium L. (Asteraceae), commonly known as „Cocklebur‰ is an annual herb of S. Yadav wastelands found in North America, Brazil, China, Malaysia and India. It has been traditionally used for its cooling, fattening, anthelmintic, digestive, and antipyretic activities. Different plant parts are 1Department of Botany, Maharshi predominantly used for curing malarial fever, asthma, rheumatism, leprosy, migraine, small pox and Dayanand University, Rohtak, Haryana cancer. Leaves of the plant are used for the treatment of eczema, roots against high fever and fruits (India) to treat conjunctivitis. It is also used to cure leucoderma, epilepsy, salivation, congestive heart diseases, nephritis, toxemia of pregnancy, hypertension, premenstrual tension and poisonous bites of insects. Seeds yields edible oil which is used in bladder infection. Based on ethnobotanical information it is found that plants used in folk medicine are rich in bioactive molecules. The review reveals that phytochemical constituents of wide variety have been isolated. Phytoconstituents like anthraquinone, cardenolide, leucoanthocyanin, simple phenolics (catechol) and triterpenoids were reported. Many phytocompounds like caffeic acid, isoxanthanol, xanthanol, xanthiazone, xanthanin, xanthatin etc. were isolated from the plant and proven to be biologically active. The need for review of the plant species was predominantly to answer the gaps between ethnomedicinal uses and phytochemical studies. Hence, the present review article explores the ethnomedicinal uses and phytochemistry of X. strumerium, which upon further research could lead to development of viable drugs for the treatment of variety of ailments.

  • Vascular Plant Species of the Comanche National Grassland in United States Department Southeastern Colorado of Agriculture
    Vascular Plant Species of the Comanche National Grassland in United States Department Southeastern Colorado of Agriculture Forest Service Donald L. Hazlett Rocky Mountain Research Station General Technical Report RMRS-GTR-130 June 2004 Hazlett, Donald L. 2004. Vascular plant species of the Comanche National Grassland in southeast- ern Colorado. Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS-GTR-130. Fort Collins, CO: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 36 p. Abstract This checklist has 785 species and 801 taxa (for taxa, the varieties and subspecies are included in the count) in 90 plant families. The most common plant families are the grasses (Poaceae) and the sunflower family (Asteraceae). Of this total, 513 taxa are definitely known to occur on the Comanche National Grassland. The remaining 288 taxa occur in nearby areas of southeastern Colorado and may be discovered on the Comanche National Grassland. The Author Dr. Donald L. Hazlett has worked as an ecologist, botanist, ethnobotanist, and teacher in Latin America and in Colorado. He has specialized in the flora of the eastern plains since 1985. His many years in Latin America prompted him to include Spanish common names in this report, names that are seldom reported in floristic pub- lications. He is also compiling plant folklore stories for Great Plains plants. Since Don is a native of Otero county, this project was of special interest.

  • Written Findings of the Washington State Noxious Weed Control Board
    WRITTEN FINDINGS OF THE WASHINGTON STATE NOXIOUS WEED CONTROL BOARD Scientific Name: Xanthium spinosum L. Common Name: cocklebur, spiny Family: Asteraceae Legal Status: Class C Description and Variation: An erect, much branched annual; up to three feet high. Reproduces by seed; spines present, about one inch long and found in leaf axils and at stem nodes. Leaves are mostly three-lobed, the center lobe much longer than the other two, being up to three inches long, shiny dark green and hairy on the upper surface and downy beneath. The flowers are small, inconspicuous, creamy green. Male flowers are found at the top of the stems, and female flowers are formed lower on the stems. Fruit is more or less an egg-shaped burr, up to one-half inch long, armed with numerous hooked spines, some with one or two straight terminal spines. There are two seeds per burr, flattened, three-eighths inch long and brown in color. Economic Importance: Detrimental: The burrs can become tangled in the hide of cattle and horses and in the wool of sheep. Removal of burrs from wool adds to the cost of the final woolen product. The weed can provide some competition for summer crops and is a nuisance to pickers in hand- harvested crops. The seeds and cotyledonary seedlings are poisonous. Ingestion of seeds equal to 0.3% of the animals weight, or ingestion of seedlings equal to 1.5% of the animal’s weight are toxic. Poisoning has occurred in all classes of domestic livestock, and is always associated with cotyledonary seedling ingestion.

  • Phytopharmacological Review of Xanthium Strumarium L. (Cocklebur)
    Phytopharmacological review of Xanthium strumarium L. (Cocklebur) TICLE R Anjoo Kamboj, Ajay Kumar Saluja1 Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Guru Gobind Singh College of Pharmacy, Yamuna Nagar - 135 001 (Haryana), 1Department of A Pharmacognosy, A.R. College of Pharmacy, Vallabh Vidhyanagar - 388 120 (Gujarat), India Xanthium strumarium L. (Family: Compositae) a medicinal plant commonly found as a weed, is widely distributed in North America, Brazil, China, Malaysia and hotter parts of India. The herb is traditionally used mostly in treating several ailments. Extracts of the whole plant, especially leaves, roots, fruits and seeds have been applied in traditional medicine for the treatment of leucoderma, poisonous EVIEW bites of insects, epilepsy, salivation, long-standing cases of malaria, rheumatism, tuberculosis, allergic rhinitis, sinitis, urticaria, rheumatoid arthritis, constipation, diarrhoea, leprosy, lumbago, pruritis, bacterial and fungal infections. This comprehensive account R provides a botanical description of the plant, its phytochemical constituents and pharmacological activities are reviewed, focussing on antibacterial, antitumour, antitussive, antifungal, antiinflammatory, antinociceptive, hypoglycaemic, antimitotic, antioxidant, antitrypanosomal, CNS depressant activity, diuretic effects, contact dermatitis, insecticidal and herbicidal activities. Most of the pharmacological effects can be explained by the constituents like sesquiterpene lactones, glycoside, phenols, polysterols present in all plant parts. However, future efforts should concentrate more on in vitro and in vivo studies and also on clinical trials in order to confirm traditional wisdom in the light of a rational phytotherapy. Because of its multi-activity, in particular, anti-tumour, anti-cancer activity, so much attention is focussed on the herb. Finally, research needs quantitation of individual constituents and assessment of their pharmacological activities in humans.

  • Embryological Studies in Compositae Iv
    EMBRYOLOGICAL STUDIES IN COMPOSITAE IV. Heliantheae BY H. MAHESWARI DEVI (Department of Botany, Andkra University, Waltair) Received July 27, 1963 (Communicated by Dr. J. Venkateswarlu, F.A.SC.) INTRODUCTION THE various aspects of the embryology of the tribe Haliantheae, one of the largest tribes of the family Compositae, are rather inadequately investigated. For example, the previous accounts do not contain definite information about the first division of the primary endosperm nucleus as to whether it is accompanied by wall formation or not. The observations of Merrel (1900), Dahlgren (1920) and Carano (1921) were based on well-developed endosperm and are contradictory. Bhargava (1935) worked out the male and female gametophytes in Tridax procumbens and observed irregularities in the micro- sporogenesis and Normal type of embryo-sac. Venkateswarlu (1941) recorded integumentary vascular traces in Zinnia elegans, Cosmos bipinnata and Tridax procumbens. Maheshwari and Srinivasan (1944) reported Fritillaria type of embryo-sac development in Rudbeckia bicolor. Semigamy was observed in Rudbeckia speciosa and R. laciniata (Battaglia, 1946 and 1947). Both monosporic and bisporic types of embryo-sacs occur in Tridax trilobata (Hjelmqvist, 1951). Maheshwari and Roy (1952) reported Normal type of embryo-sac development and polyembryony in Tridax procumbens. Vernin (1952) studied endosperm and embryo development in Madia sativa, but could not decide the type of the endosperm development. Hjelmqvist and Holmberg (1961) studied the development of embryo-sac in Sanvitalia pro- cumbens. The archesporium is multicellular. The development of the embryo-sac in some ovules is of the Polygonum type while in others it is of the bisporic type, the upper dyad in some and the lower in others functioning to develop into an 8-nucleate embryo-sac.
