It is a medium-sized deciduous tree and very vigorous in growth. According to traditional system, it possesses anthelmintic, purgative, diuretic, expectorant, antipyretic, hepatoprotective and analgesic action. The fruits are edible and used as pickle. The gum obtained from mucilage is used for pasting sheets of paper and as matrix forming material in tablet formulations. Phytochemical investigations show the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolics, tannins and reducing sugar. Evaluation of pharmacological activities confirmedC. obliqua plant as antimicrobial, hypotensive, respiratory stimulant, diuretic and anti‑inflammatory drug. A number of traditional activities of this plant still need scientific approval which will increase its medicinal potential.

C Abstract Review Article Strikingly similar fruits of Cordia dichotoma, C. myxa and C. sinensis are known as Lasora in vernacular languages in India and Pakistan. The trio has been used since ages in India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Arab and Africa as folk medicine and in Ayurvedic, Arabian, Chinese, Unani (Greek), Persian and Siddha systems of medicine. Most of plant parts, like roots, twigs, roots, stem and root bark, leaves, seeds and even the gum are useful. Folks in various countries and parts of India use fruits, tender leaves and inflorescence as vegetable. Fruits are eaten as raw and used pickled. In many parts of India, Africa and East Asia these species serve as source of survival and food during famines. Cordia has long been used as an anti-diabetic, anthelminth, anti-inflammatory, anti-malarial, astringent, cicatrizant, diuretic, hepato-protective, immune-modulator and febrifuge and as an appetite and cough suppressant in folkloric and traditional medicine.

INTRODUCTION Crop plants are our greatest heritage from prehistory (Harlan 1992; Diamond 2002). How, where, and when the domestication of crops plants occurred is slowly becoming revealed although not completely understood (Camp et al. 1957; Smartt and Simmonds 1995; Gepts 2003). In some cases, the genetic distance between wild and domestic plants is so great, maize and crucifers, for example, that their origins are obscure. The origins of the ancient grains (wheat, maize, rice, and sorghum) and pulses (sesame and lentil) domesticated in Neolithic times have been the subject of intense interest and the puzzle is being solved with the new evidence based on molecular biology (Gepts 2003).

  • Leaf Micromorphological Features of the Genus Cordia L. (Boraginaceae) from Egypt
    Bangladesh J. Plant Taxon. 23(2): 119-131, 2016 (December) © 2016 Bangladesh Association of Plant Taxonomists LEAF MICROMORPHOLOGICAL FEATURES OF THE GENUS CORDIA L. (BORAGINACEAE) FROM EGYPT 1 2 WAFAA AMER, RIM HAMDY AND RIHAM MAHDY Department of Botany & Microbiology, Faculty of Science, Cairo University, Giza 12613, Egypt Keywords: Cordia; Trichomes; Stomata; SEM; Egypt. Abstract Foliar epidermal characters of nine Cordia L. species found in Egypt are investigated. Glandular trichomes are observed in C. boissieri A. DC. and C. cylindristachya (Ruiz & Pav.) Roem. & Schult., while eglandular trichomes are predominant in all studied species. Different stomatal characters were examined including: shape, size, rims, stomatal level, aperture, cuticular deposition and wax ornamentation. The retrieved results showed a great variation among the studied species. The observed trichomes and stomata were used to construct two different taxonomic keys. Introduction Cordia L. is a large pantropical genus growing across the tropical and subtropical areas of America, Africa, Asia and Oceania (Al-Shehbaz, 1991) with 320 species of trees and shrubs. The genus is represented in the flora of Egypt by eight cultivated and one wild species. Cordia myxa L. was recorded in ancient Egypt (Täckholm, 1961; Lucas, 1962; Darby et al., 1977 and Manniche, 1989). Its fruit was eaten fresh and used to make wine. It may also have been raised for the production of birdlime (Van der veen, 2011). Cordia sinensis Lam. is the only relict species in its wild form; traced in moist ground in oases and Gebel Elba (Täckholm, 1974; Boulos, 2009). It was also raised in the Israel-Palestine area and in the Arabian Peninsula (Feinbrun- Dothan, 1978).

Methods: The aqueous and ethanol extracts of the plants were prepared. The free radical scavenging activity of the extracts was determined using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical method. Total phenolic and flavonoid contents of the extracts were assessed by Folin-Ciocalteu and aluminium chloride colorimetric assays, respectively. Furthermore, cyanidin 3-glucoside and delphinidin 3- glucoside contents of the extracts were determined using high- performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method. Results: The most powerful free radical scavenging activity with 50 % inhibitory concentration (IC50) of -1 23.13 ± 1.90 µg mL was exerted by the ethanol extract of Nonea caspica, while the weakest IC50 of 364.38 ± 14.18 µg mL-1 was shown by the aqueous extract of Onosma sericeum.

  • 5 Phylogenetic Analysis of Cordiaceae (Boraginales) Inferred from ITS1 Sequence Data 4
    5 Phylogenetic Analysis of Cordiaceae 5 Phylogenetic Analysis of Cordiaceae (Boraginales) Inferred from ITS1 Sequence Data 4 Abstract. The phylogenetic relationships of Cordiaceae (= Boraginaceae subfam. Cordioideae) are investigated. ITS1 sequences were obtained from 50 ingroup taxa and two outgroup taxa. Cordia s.l. in its traditional circumscription (i.e., excluding Auxemma, Patagonula, and Saccellium) turns out to be paraphyletic and falls into four major monophyletic assemblages more or less corresponding to established taxonomic units. Tree topology indicates that Auxemma, Patagonula and Saccellium should be included in Cordia in a narrow sense, of which Varronia (= Cordia sect. Varronia) is the sistergroup and is a well differentiated taxon deserving generic rank. Cordia as here retrieved in turn falls into three subclades: the Collococcus subclade (comprising Cordia sects. Pilicordia, Physoclada, and Superbiflorae), the Myxa subclade (= Cordia sect. Myxa), and the Sebestena subclade (comprising Cordia sects. Cordia, Gerascanthus, and Rhabdocalyx p.p., including Auxemma, Patagonula, and Saccellium). Data from morphology also support the close relationship of Auxemma, Patagonula, and Saccellium with the C. sebestena species group (= Cordia sect. Cordia p.p.). The entire Sebestena subclade is not completely resolved, and phylogeny remains somewhat vague. Cordia sect. Rhabdocalyx is a polyphyletic assemblage of species belonging to the subclades Sebestena and Collococcus. Some general hypotheses on the evolution of Cordiaceae are supported by molecular data. The group apparently originated in the New World, the Old World representatives of the subclades Myxa and Sebestena colonised Africa independently probably by long-distance dispersal. A basic pattern of Cordiaceae has been reconstructed. 5.1 Introduction Cordia s.l. comprising about 300 species is pantropical in distribution with centres of diversity in Africa and tropical America.

They are found principally in tropical and subtropical regions of the Accepted 22 May 2015 American, Asian and African continents, where they occur in various countries. In the genus Cordia, there Available online 23 July 2015 are many species cultivated for ornamental plants, wood and medicinal applications, where they are extensively utilized by traditional communities. In the last decades, scientific studies of Cordia species Keywords: have intensified, demonstrating the great interest in phytochemical, biological and pharmacological stud- Bioactivity ies.
