Tonge* *Dept. of Dravyaguna, Govt. Ayurved College Nanded (MS), India Abstract In day to day practice when we see the market samples of Musali it creates confusion in mind; which type Musali is sold by the vendor. These days various species of plants are used as Musali in different parts of India. Traditionally, Salam and Salam panja are also used as Mushali. To rule out all these differences and arrive to a definite conclusion. This is an attempt to collect the referances from samhitas and nighantus about musali. Botanically classify the species which are used as musali. Describe all the species which are in use as musali in a systematic manner.

Confronting Assumptions About Spontaneous Autogamy
Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2009, 161, 78–88. With 4 figures Confronting assumptions about spontaneous autogamy in populations of Eulophia alta (Orchidaceae) in south Florida: assessing the effect of pollination treatments on seed formation, seed germination and seedling developmentboj_992 78..88 TIMOTHY R. JOHNSON1*, SCOTT L. STEWART2, PHILIP KAUTH1, MICHAEL E. KANE1 and NANCY PHILMAN1 1Plant Restoration, Conservation and Propagation Biotechnology Lab, Department of Environmental Horticulture, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL 32611-0675, USA 2Horticulture and Agriculture Programs, Kankakee Community College, 100 College Drive, Kankakee, IL 60901, USA Received 1 June 2009; accepted for publication 7 July 2009 The breeding system of the terrestrial orchid Eulophia alta was investigated in south Florida where it has previously been reported as an auto-pollinated species. The effect of breeding system on seed viability and germinability and seedling development was also investigated. Incidences of spontaneous autogamy in E. alta were rare at the study site, resulting in only 7.1% of observed flowers forming capsules. In addition, hand pollination resulted in significantly greater capsule formation when flowers were subjected to induced autogamy (46.4%), artificial geitonogamy (64.3%) and xenogamy at both short (pollen source 10–100 m away; 42.9%) and long (pollen source > 10 km away; 67.9%) distances. Pollen source had little effect on seed viability and germinability or seedling growth rates. However, seed resulting from spontaneous autogamy developed more slowly than seed originating from the other treatments. These data indicate that spontaneous autogamy is rare in E. alta and that naturally forming capsules may be the result of unobserved pollination events. -

Competing Demand for Water in Tamil Nadu: Urbanisation, Industrialisation and Environmental Damages in the Bhavani and Noyyal Basins (1880s-2000s) Velayutham Saravanan* Abstract This article attempts to analyse, in a historical perspective (1881-2002), the emergence of competing demand for water caused by the diversion of river basin water to meet the demand of the urban domestic use and industrial needs and its consequential damage to the ecology and environment, which further aggravated the problem, in the Bhavani and Noyyal river basins of Tamil Nadu. It examines the diversion of water for the domestic and industrial sectors that caused a great threat to the ecology, environment and health of the people and to the flora and fauna of these regions, which further aggravated the competing demand situation leading to 'water market' in the basin areas. Further, it also analyses the role of the state, how it further motivated the competing demand for water, thereby neglecting the ecology and environment of these river basins. On the one hand, it provides water to the pollution- causing industries by diverting water from the river basins, where there is already an acute scarcity of water. On the other hand, the diverted water is getting polluted due to the ineffective pollution control measures of the state, further aggravating the situation for competing demand for water and worsening the environmental conditions in the river basins. In short, this article examines the proliferation factors for water demand creating competition in the basin areas and the consequence of environmental damages that not only created 'water market' but also posed great threat to the ecology, environment and people in the Bhavani and Noyyal river basins of Tamil Nadu since the late 19th century up till the early years of the 21st century (1881-2002). -
An Asian Orchid, Eulophia Graminea (Orchidaceae: Cymbidieae), Naturalizes in Florida
LANKESTERIANA 8(1): 5-14. 2008. AN ASIAN ORCHID, EULOPHIA GRAMINEA (ORCHIDACEAE: CYMBIDIEAE), NATURALIZES IN FLORIDA ROBE R T W. PEMBE R TON 1,3, TIMOTHY M. COLLINS 2 & SUZANNE KO P TU R 2 1Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden, 2121 SW 28th Terrace Ft. Lauderdale, Florida 33312 2Department of Biological Sciences, Florida International University, Miami, FL 33199 3Author for correspondence: [email protected] ABST R A C T . Eulophia graminea, a terrestrial orchid native to Asia, has naturalized in southern Florida. Orchids naturalize less often than other flowering plants or ferns, butE. graminea has also recently become naturalized in Australia. Plants were found growing in five neighborhoods in Miami-Dade County, spanning 35 km from the most northern to the most southern site, and growing only in woodchip mulch at four of the sites. Plants at four sites bore flowers, and fruit were observed at two sites. Hand pollination treatments determined that the flowers are self compatible but fewer fruit were set in selfed flowers (4/10) than in out-crossed flowers (10/10). No fruit set occurred in plants isolated from pollinators, indicating that E. graminea is not autogamous. Pollinia removal was not detected at one site, but was 24.3 % at the other site evaluated for reproductive success. A total of 26 and 92 fruit were found at these two sites, where an average of 6.5 and 3.4 fruit were produced per plant. These fruits ripened and dehisced rapidly; some dehiscing while their inflorescences still bore open flowers. Fruit set averaged 9.2 and 4.5 % at the two sites. -

Pollen and Stamen Mimicry: the Alpine Flora As a Case Study
Arthropod-Plant Interactions DOI 10.1007/s11829-017-9525-5 ORIGINAL PAPER Pollen and stamen mimicry: the alpine flora as a case study 1 1 1 1 Klaus Lunau • Sabine Konzmann • Lena Winter • Vanessa Kamphausen • Zong-Xin Ren2 Received: 1 June 2016 / Accepted: 6 April 2017 Ó The Author(s) 2017. This article is an open access publication Abstract Many melittophilous flowers display yellow and Dichogamous and diclinous species display pollen- and UV-absorbing floral guides that resemble the most com- stamen-imitating structures more often than non-dichoga- mon colour of pollen and anthers. The yellow coloured mous and non-diclinous species, respectively. The visual anthers and pollen and the similarly coloured flower guides similarity between the androecium and other floral organs are described as key features of a pollen and stamen is attributed to mimicry, i.e. deception caused by the flower mimicry system. In this study, we investigated the entire visitor’s inability to discriminate between model and angiosperm flora of the Alps with regard to visually dis- mimic, sensory exploitation, and signal standardisation played pollen and floral guides. All species were checked among floral morphs, flowering phases, and co-flowering for the presence of pollen- and stamen-imitating structures species. We critically discuss deviant pollen and stamen using colour photographs. Most flowering plants of the mimicry concepts and evaluate the frequent evolution of Alps display yellow pollen and at least 28% of the species pollen-imitating structures in view of the conflicting use of display pollen- or stamen-imitating structures. The most pollen for pollination in flowering plants and provision of frequent types of pollen and stamen imitations were pollen for offspring in bees. -
