Ethnobotanical Observations of Euphorbiaceae Species from Vidarbha Region, Maharashtra, India
Ethnobotanical Leaflets 14: 674-80, 2010. Ethnobotanical Observations of Euphorbiaceae Species from Vidarbha region, Maharashtra, India G. Phani Kumar* and Alka Chaturvedi# Defence Institute of High Altitude Research (DRDO), Leh-Ladakh, India #PGTD Botany, RTM Nagpur University, Nagpur, India *corresponding author: [email protected] Issued: 01 June, 2010 Abstract An attempt has been made to explore traditional medicinal knowledge of plant materials belonging to various genera of the Euphorbiaceae, readily available in Vidharbha region of Maharasthtra state. Ethnobotanical information were gathered through several visits, group discussions and cross checked with local medicine men. The study identified 7 species to cure skin diseases (such as itches, scabies); 5 species for antiseptic (including antibacterial); 4 species for diarrhoea; 3 species for dysentery, urinary infections, snake-bite and inflammations; 2 species for bone fracture/ dislocation, hair related problems, warts, fish poisons, night blindness, wounds/cuts/ burns, rheumatism, diabetes, jaundice, vomiting and insecticide; 1 species as laxative , viral fever and arthritis. The results are encouraging but thorough scientific scrutiny is absolutely necessary before being put into practice. Key words: Ethnopharmacology; Vidarbha region; Euphorbiaceae; ethnobotanical information. Introduction The medicinal properties of a plant are due to the presence of certain chemical constituents. These chemical constituents, responsible for the specific physiological action, in the plant, have in many cases been isolated, purified and identified as definite chemical compounds. Quite a large number of plants are known to be of medicinal use remain uninvestigated and this is particularly the case with the Indian flora. The use of plants in curing and healing is as old as man himself (Hedberg, 1987). -

New York Science Journal 2018;11(10) http://www.sciencepub.net/newyork Pollen Morphology of Some Phyllanthus Species in Nigeria Wahab, Olasumbo Monsurat1 and Ayodele, Abiodun Emmanuel2 1. Department of Crop Production Technology, Federal College of Forestry, Ibadan. Nigeria 2. Department of Botany, University of Ibadan, Ibadan. Nigeria [email protected] Abstract: Circumscription of the genus Phyllanthus has been a cause of much confusion and disagreement. The fact that many herbaceous Phyllanthus species grow in similar habitats and share common vernacular names in Nigeria give rise to misidentifications. Field and Herbarium observations of some Phyllanthus species show that there are similarities of highly conspicuous morphological features, making identification of the species difficult. The pollen grain morphology of 18 field specimens comprising 10 Phyllanthus species using light microscope was therefore analysed in the present study with the aim of providing additional information on their taxonomy. The pollen type of the species have 3 – colporate, finely reticulate pollen without much ornamentation. Pollens were prolate, subprolate in shape in all taxa except P. muellerianus which was oblate–spheroidal. The pollen grains ranged in size from small in P. amarus, P. muellerianus, P. maderaspatensis, P. pentandrus and P. reticulatus to medium in P. maderaspatensis, P. capillaris, P. niruroides, P. odontadenius and P. urinaria. The smallest pollen size was observed in P. muellerianus being 12.4m by 13.0m while the largest pollen size was observed in P. capillaris being 31.5m by 23.25m. The colpi length ranged from 12.2m in P. muellerianus to 26.75m in P. urinaria while the percentage polar over equatorial axis ranged from 95.4% in P. -

Phylogenetic Reconstruction Prompts Taxonomic Changes in Sauropus, Synostemon and Breynia (Phyllanthaceae Tribe Phyllantheae)
Blumea 59, 2014: 77–94 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/blumea RESEARCH ARTICLE http://dx.doi.org/10.3767/000651914X684484 Phylogenetic reconstruction prompts taxonomic changes in Sauropus, Synostemon and Breynia (Phyllanthaceae tribe Phyllantheae) P.C. van Welzen1,2, K. Pruesapan3, I.R.H. Telford4, H.-J. Esser 5, J.J. Bruhl4 Key words Abstract Previous molecular phylogenetic studies indicated expansion of Breynia with inclusion of Sauropus s.str. (excluding Synostemon). The present study adds qualitative and quantitative morphological characters to molecular Breynia data to find more resolution and/or higher support for the subgroups within Breynia s.lat. However, the results show molecular phylogeny that combined molecular and morphological characters provide limited synergy. Morphology confirms and makes the morphology infrageneric groups recognisable within Breynia s.lat. The status of the Sauropus androgynus complex is discussed. Phyllanthaceae Nomenclatural changes of Sauropus species to Breynia are formalised. The genus Synostemon is reinstated.

A Comprehensive Review on Phyllanthus Derived Natural Products As Potential Chemotherapeutic and Immunomodulators for a Wide Range of T Human Diseases

It Cancer has been postulated that the immune response to progressive tumors is insufficient due to a deficiency in afferent Phyllanthus amarus/niruri mechanisms responsible for the development of tumor-reactive T cells. Many patients treated for cancer will Phyllanthin have their cancer recurrence, often after a long remission period. This suggests that there are a small number of Hypophyllanthin tumor cells that remain alive after standard treatment(s) – alone or in combination and have been less effective Chemotherapeutic in combating metastasis that represents the most elaborate hurdle to overcome in the cure of the disease. Immunomodulation Therefore, any new effective and safe therapeutic agents will be highly demanded. To circumvent many plant extracts have attributed for their chemoprotective potentials and their influence on the human immune system. It is now well recognized that immunomodulation of immune response could provide an alternative or addition to conventional chemotherapy for a variety of disease conditions. However, many hurdles still exist. In recent years, there has been a tremendous interest either in harnessing the immune system or towards plant-derived immunomodulators as anticancer agents for their efficacy, safety and their targeted drug action and drug de- livery mechanisms. -
And Leafflower Trees (Phyllanthaceae: Phyllanthus Sensu Lato [Glochidion]) in Southeastern Polynesia
Coevolutionary Diversification of Leafflower Moths (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae: Epicephala) and Leafflower Trees (Phyllanthaceae: Phyllanthus sensu lato [Glochidion]) in Southeastern Polynesia By David Howard Hembry A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science, Policy, and Management in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Rosemary Gillespie, Chair Professor Bruce Baldwin Professor Patrick O’Grady Spring 2012 1 2 Abstract Coevolution between phylogenetically distant, yet ecologically intimate taxa is widely invoked as a major process generating and organizing biodiversity on earth. Yet for many putatively coevolving clades we lack knowledge both of their evolutionary history of diversification, and the manner in which they organize themselves into patterns of interaction. This is especially true for mutualistic associations, despite the fact that mutualisms have served as models for much coevolutionary research. In this dissertation, I examine the codiversification of an obligate, reciprocally specialized pollination mutualism between leafflower moths (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae: Epicephala) and leafflower trees (Phyllanthaceae: Phyllanthus sensu lato [Glochidion]) on the oceanic islands of southeastern Polynesia. Leafflower moths are the sole known pollinators of five clades of leafflowers (in the genus Phyllanthus s. l., including the genera Glochidion and Breynia), and thus this interaction is considered to be obligate. Female moths actively transfer pollen from male flowers to female flowers, using a haired proboscis to transfer pollen into the recessed stigmatic surface at the end of the fused stylar column. The moths then oviposit into the flowers’ ovaries, and the larva which hatches consumes a subset, but not all, of the developing fruit’s seed set. -

Outline of the Neotropical Infrageneric Taxa of Phyllanthus (Euphorbiaceae)
Outline of the neotropical infrageneric taxa of Phyllanthus (Euphorbiaceae) Grady L. Webster Section of Plant Biology, University of California, Davis, California, 95616, U.S.A. ABSTRACT. The 220 described neotropical species of Phyllanthus (Euphorbiaceae) are arranged in 33 sections belonging to 8 subgenera. Descriptions are given for one new subgenus, Cyclanthera, and five new sections – Antipodanthus, Salviniopsis, Pityrocladus, Hylaeanthus, and Sellowianthus. Three new subsections are described: sect. Phyllanthus subsect. Almadenses, sect. Phyllanthus subsect. Clausseniani; and sect. Choretropsis subsect. Choretropsis. Keys to species, and enumerations of them, are provided for new or revised sections and subsections. The 800-odd species of Phyllanthus, one of the larger genera of Euphorbiaceae, have recently been tabulated by Govaerts et al. (2000), but the subgenera and sections are not indicated. The first comprehensive arrangements of sections in Phyllanthus were published by Baillon (1858) and by Grisebach (1859). Jean Müller (1863, 1866, 1873) presented a much more sophisticated system involving sections and subsections; his arrangment was followed, almost unaltered, by Pax and Hoffmann (1931). Since then, the infrageneric taxa have been summarized by Webster (1956-58; 1967a) and by Webster and Airy Shaw 1971; for taxa in Australasia). Pollen characters have proved to be very important indicators of relationship (Webster, 1956, 1988; Punt, 1967, 1987). The outline proposed here reflects changes due to ongoing revision of the neotropical species of Phyllanthus (Webster, 1967b, 1968, 1970, 1978, 1984, 1988, 1991, 1999, 2001; and ined.). In addition to a key to the subgenera and sections, the 9 subgenera and their constituent sections are enumerated. Species are enumerated for most sections except for the West Indian taxa previously treated (Webster, 1956, 1957, 1958, 1991).
