Traditional plants are a valued source of novel cytotoxic agents and are still in performance better role in health concern. In the present study, the bark of methanol and chloroform extracts were subjected to preliminary phytochemicals screening was done using different biochemical tests. Among the 2 solvent extracts, methanol showed the highest number of phytochemicals, which extract was subjected to in vitro study of antioxidant activity by DPPH method and cytotoxicity activity against HEp-2 cell lines by MTT assay. Furthermore, DNA fragmentation and GCMS analysis were subjected. By the analsyis, following phyto-constituents like tannins, saponins, Steroids, Carbohydrate and Phenols, Flavonoids, Terpenoids, and quinine were observed. The methanol extract was found to be selectively cytotoxic in vitro to HEp-2 cell lines with IC50values was15.6 µg/ml.

I Is the Sunda-Sahul Floristic Exchange Ongoing?
Is the Sunda-Sahul floristic exchange ongoing? A study of distributions, functional traits, climate and landscape genomics to investigate the invasion in Australian rainforests By Jia-Yee Samantha Yap Bachelor of Biotechnology Hons. A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2018 Queensland Alliance for Agriculture and Food Innovation i Abstract Australian rainforests are of mixed biogeographical histories, resulting from the collision between Sahul (Australia) and Sunda shelves that led to extensive immigration of rainforest lineages with Sunda ancestry to Australia. Although comprehensive fossil records and molecular phylogenies distinguish between the Sunda and Sahul floristic elements, species distributions, functional traits or landscape dynamics have not been used to distinguish between the two elements in the Australian rainforest flora. The overall aim of this study was to investigate both Sunda and Sahul components in the Australian rainforest flora by (1) exploring their continental-wide distributional patterns and observing how functional characteristics and environmental preferences determine these patterns, (2) investigating continental-wide genomic diversities and distances of multiple species and measuring local species accumulation rates across multiple sites to observe whether past biotic exchange left detectable and consistent patterns in the rainforest flora, (3) coupling genomic data and species distribution models of lineages of known Sunda and Sahul ancestry to examine landscape-level dynamics and habitat preferences to relate to the impact of historical processes. First, the continental distributions of rainforest woody representatives that could be ascribed to Sahul (795 species) and Sunda origins (604 species) and their dispersal and persistence characteristics and key functional characteristics (leaf size, fruit size, wood density and maximum height at maturity) of were compared.
