Bangladesh E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Growth performance of Eryngium foetidum L. with different seed treatment and priming duration was studied at the field laboratory of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural University during July 2010 to June 2011. Treatment of seeds with growth regulator and soaking and drying of seeds enhanced seed germination in the field and laboratory. Consecutive 96 hours soaking and drying (8 hours soaking and 4 hours drying) of Eryngium seeds treated with GA3 500 ppm and Kinetin 50 ppm gave the maximum germination (57.61%) and enhanced germination (13.0 days). Chemicals (Tetracycline plus copper oxi- chloride had no significant effect on germination. Consecutive 72 to 96 hours soaking with growth regulator treatment showed better performance in the field and gave maximum biomass (39.4 t/ha). The untreated or pesticide treated seeds showed poor germination and growth performance. Keywords: Eryngium foetidum, growth, priming, seed treatment. Introduction Eryngium foetidum L. is a high valued promising increasing due to its higher aromatic, nutritive and Horticultural crops belongs to the family Apiaceae medicinal value. In Bangladesh, it is a major cash crop which includes other culinary herb viz. parsley in the eastern hilly areas and cultivation expanding (Petroselinum crispum), celery (Apium graveolens) other parts of the country. Farmers are very much and parsnip (Pastinaca sativa). It is originated from interested to cultivate this crop as it gives a very high tropical America, West Indies, Vietnam, Asam and return ignoring the germination problem of Eryngium Bangladesh (Nienga, 1995, Rashid, 1999, Rubatzky et seeds.

It is known as many as 73 names in seed germinations as well as unavailability of adequate different countries such as Eryngium, Eringo, amounts of seeds also limit the cultivation of Bangladhonia, Bilatidhonia, Bandhonia, Long Eryngium.

Therefore, the experiment was conducted Increased seed germination may be increased farmers to increase the germination rate for better germination, profitability reducing cost of production with lower growth and biomass production to increase farmer’s seed rate. Moreover, more area can be cultivated with profitability decreasing the production (seed) cost in a limited amount of seed. Previously developed Eryngium foetidum cultivation. technology is not sufficient to increased seed germination near 100% inhibiting the negative effect Methodology of the germination by a chemical ‘Coumarin’ presents in Eryngium seeds (Ekpong, et al., 2008).

GSC Biological and Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2021, 15(03), 289–294 Publication history: Received on 17 May 2021; revised on 25 June 2021; accepted on 27 June 2021 Article DOI: https://doi.org/10.30574/gscbps.2021.15.3.0175 Abstract Eryngium foetidum is a species belonging Apiaceae which is used as medicine, vegetables, and spices. The plants used as medicine related to its secondary metabolites. The writing of this article is based on a literature review obtained online sources and offline used keywords Eryngium foetidum, secondary metabolites of E. foetidum, and uses of E. foetidum. In ethnobotany E. foetidum used to treat fever, hypertension, headache, abdominal pain, asthma, arthritis, diarrhea, and malaria. The essential oil of E. foetidum is dominated by (E) -2-dodecenal, dodecanoic acid, trans-2- dodecanoic acid, (E) -2-tridecenal, duraldehyde, and tetradecane. The bioactivity of E. foetidum has anti-microbial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. The ability of E. foetidum essential oils as an anti-microbial is very potential to be developed as a natural food preservative. Keywords: Eryngium foetidum; Anti-microbial; Essential oil; antioxidant 1. Introduction Plants as medicinal and food ingredients a very important in the development of human civilization. The plants are direct or indirect impact to human health, so it’s to be carried out as new alternative therapeutic agents. The plants more than 7,000 species used as traditional medicinal.

The present study tries to examine the role of Reang Home gardens in North Tripura district of Tripura. A total of 38 Home gardens in 4 hamlet or pada were randomly selected for the study. Total plant inventory and interview method were used to collect data. In Reang Home gardens at North Tripura District overall 148 species under 130 genera belonging to 55 families have been inventoried. Leguminosae and Poaceae were the most dominant families. Forty percent of the Reang Home garden plants were found to harbour edible plant species. (food, Fruits, vegetable, pulses, spices), 22% medicinal, 18% ornamental, 4% timber, 3% fine wood and other categories remain little over 3%. Reang Home garden shows a good diversity with multiple uses. Most Reang peoples rely on folk health care traditions. Domestication of wild plants for food, medicine and other purposes are an important activity.

  • Taxonomy, Origin and Importance of the Apiaceae Family
    1 TAXONOMY, ORIGIN AND IMPORTANCE OF THE APIACEAE FAMILY JEAN-PIERRE REDURON* Mulhouse, France The Apiaceae (or Umbelliferae) is a plant family comprising at the present time 466 genera and about 3800 species (Plunkett et al., 2018). It is distributed nearly worldwide, but is most diverse in temperate climatic areas, such as Eurasia and North America. It is quite rare in tropical humid regions where it is limited to high mountains. Mediterranean and arid climatic conditions favour high species diversification. The Apiaceae are present in nearly all types of habi- tats, from sea-level to alpine zones: aquatic biotopes, grasslands, grazed pas- tures, forests including their clearings and margins, cliffs, screes, rocky hills, open sandy and gravelly soils, steppes, cultivated fields, fallows, road sides and waste grounds. The largest number of genera, 289, and the largest generic endemism, 177, is found in Asia. There are 126 genera in Europe, but only 17 are en- demic. Africa has about the same total with 121 genera, where North Africa encompasses the largest occurrence of 82 genera, 13 of which are endemic. North and Central America have a fairly high level of diversity with 80 genera and 44 endemics, where South America accommodates less generic diversity with 35 genera, 15 of which are endemic. Oceania is home to 27 genera and 18 endemics (Plunkett et al., 2018). The Apiaceae family appears to have originated in Australasia (region including Australia, Tasmania, New Zealand, New Guinea, New Caledonia and several island groups), with this origin dated to the Late Cretaceous/ early Eocene, c.87 Ma (Nicolas and Plunkett, 2014).
