The fruits are oblong–ovate, orange, 4–5cm, smooth, 10ribbed, and fusiform (Figure 17.3). 17.2.2 Ethnopharmacology In Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam, the plant is used as a postpartum remedy. In Malaysia, a decoction of leaves is used as a drink to counteract the poisonous effects of the fruits. The juice squeezed from the leaves is used to soothe inflamed eyes. In China, the plant is called jin gua . The pharmacological properties of this plant, and the Gymnopetalum species in general, are unexplored as of yet. Note the presence of saponins in the fruits of the Gymnopetalum integrifolium Kurz, including aoibaclyin and β-sitosterol-3-Oβ-D- glucopyranoside. 1 17.3 HODGSONIA MACROCARPA (BL.) COGN. [After Hodgson, and from macrocarpa = with large fruits.] 17.3.1 Botany Hodgsonia macrocarpa (Bl.) Cogn. ( Trichosanthes macrocarpa Bl. and Hodgsonia capniocarpa Ridl.) is a woody climber that grows in Bangladesh, India, Malaysia, Burma, and China to a height of 30m. The stems are glabrous. The tendrils are linear. The leaves are simple and spiral. The petiole is stout, 4–8cm long, and striate. The blade is coriaceous, 3–5-lobed, and up to 20cm × 15cm long. The flowers are yellow outside and white inside, narrowly tubular, 8cm – 10cm × 7mm – 9mm and 5-lobed; the lobes are triangular-lanceolate and 5mm long. The fruits are large, pale brown to reddish-brown, globose, 20cm × 15cm long, and contain a few woody seeds which are 7cm × 3cm (Figure 17.4 ). 17.3.2 Ethnopharmacology In Malaysia, Hodgsonia macrocarpa (Bl.) Cogn. or kepayang akar (Malay) or you zha guo (Chinese) is used to heal nasal ulcers, smoked like a cigar with the smoke blown through the nostril. The oil of the seed is a mosquito repellent. Malays drink a decoction of leaves or inhale smoke of burned leaves to cure nose complaints. A decoction of leaves is used as a drink to bring fever down. In Borneo, the oil expressed from the fresh seeds is rubbed onto the abdomen after childbirth and is applied to the breast to deflate swelling. The seeds are known to be poisonous. The pharmacological potential of this plant and of the Hodgsonia species in general is unexplored. PHAN TẤT HOÀ --- NHỮNG CÂY THUỐC CHÂU Á THÁI BÌNH DƯƠNG 99 17.4 TRICHOSANTHES QUINQUANGULATA A.

Project Background • Briefly describe the location and circumstances of the project and the problem that the project aims to address. Situated in the remote, north-east corner of Nepal, bordering Sikkim (India) and Tibet Autonomous Region (China), Kangchenjunga Conservation Area (KCA) is characterized by great variations in elevation, climate, landscape, habitat, vegetation, and cultural diversity. Phyto-geographically, it forms the meeting ground of the Indo- Malaysian (S.E. Asian) and Sino-Japanese (E. Asian) floras. KCA has been declared as a “Gift to the Earth” in 1997. In 1998, WWF initiated the Kangchenjunga Conservation Area Project (KCAP) to conserve its rich biodiversity and promote community-based management of natural resources. About 1500 species of flowering plants have been documented thus far in KCA (Shrestha and Ghimire 1996), including over 150 species of non-timber forest products (Shrestha and Ghimire 1996; Sherpa 2001, Oli and Nepal 2003). NTFPs play an important role in supporting the livelihood of about 5000 people living in the four village development committees (VDCs) of Lelep, Tapethok, Yamphudin, and Walangchung Gola.

EXPLANATORY NOTE PLANT IMMIGRANTS is designed principally to call the attention of plant breeders and experimenters to the arrival of interesting plant material. It should not be viewed as an announcement of plants available for distribution, since most introductions have to be propagated before they can be sent to experimenters. This requires from one to three years, depending upon the nature of the plant and the quantity of live material received. As rapidly as stocks are available, the plants described in this circular will be included in the Annual List of Plant Introductions, which is sent to experimenters in late autumn. Introductions made for a special purpose (as for example to supply Department and other specialists with material needed in their experiments) are not propagated by this Office and will not appear in the Annual List. Descriptions appearing here are revised and later published in the Inventory of Seed,s and Plants Imported, -the permanent record of plant in- troductions made by this Office. Plant breeders and experimenters who desire plants not available in this country are invited to correspond with this Office which will endeavor to secure the required material through its agricultural ex- plorers, foreign collaborators, or correspondents.

  • Paper Plants in the Tibetan World: a Preliminary Study
    CHAPTER 22 Paper Plants in the Tibetan World: A Preliminary Study Alessandro Boesi Tibetan texts, notably religious ones (dpe cha), were inspired by Indian Buddhist manuscripts, which were produced from palm leaves,1 and rep- resented one of the oldest tools of writing in India, and several other Asian Countries as Thailand, Burma, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. Called grantha or later pustaka, they were manufactured in the so-called pothi format – loose long rectangular leaves held together by a string that runs through holes in the mid- dle and then bound around with two covers, usually made of wood. Tibetan manuscripts and printed texts mostly conserve the Indian pothi format. In the seventh century, when Tibet became a powerful empire in Asia and the basis of Tibetan civilization were laid, recording of information became a crucial undertaking, primarily for administrative and ritual purposes. A new script based on a Sanskrit alphabet was devised; stone inscriptions were carved and wood was often used as writing surface but had significant limitations. As paper, and techniques for making it, were imported from neighbouring coun- tries much more extensive writing became possible. It was most likely during this period that Tibetans selected the local plants that could be used to pro- duce paper, and started this activity in their own country. The aim of this article is to examine paper plants in the Tibetan cultural area, particularly focusing on their identification. This will be done by exam- ining accounts from pre-modern Tibet, my field data, research data, and the information available on Tibetan medical treatises.

Rich. Thèse de doctorat présentée à la Faculté des Sciences de l’Université de Lausanne par Julien Ferrari Pharmacien diplômé de la Confédération Helvétique Jury Prof. Jean Hernandez, Président Prof. Kurt Hostettmann, Directeur de thèse Prof. Pascal Richomme, Expert Dr Christian Terreaux, Expert Dr Jean-Robert Ioset, Expert LAUSANNE 2002 A Sandrine A mes parents The Chamber of 32 Doors At the top of the stairs, there's hundreds of people, Running around to all the doors. They try to find, find themselves an audience; Their deductions need applause. The rich man stands in front of me, The poor man behind my back. They believe they can control the game, But the juggler holds another pack. I need someone to believe in, someone to trust. I need someone to believe in, someone to trust. I'd rather trust a countryman than a townman, You can judge by his eyes, take a look if you can, He'll smile through his guard, Survival trains hard. I'd rather trust a man who works with his hands, He looks at you once, you know he understands, Don't need any shield, When you're out in the field. But down here, I'm so alone with my fear, With everything that I hear. And every single door, that I've walked through Brings me back, back here again, I've got to find my own way.
