    VEGETATION SURVEY OF MOUNT GORONGOSA Tom Müller, Anthony Mapaura, Bart Wursten, Christopher Chapano, Petra Ballings & Robin Wild 2008 (published 2012) Occasional Publications in Biodiversity No. 23 VEGETATION SURVEY OF MOUNT GORONGOSA Tom Müller, Anthony Mapaura, Bart Wursten, Christopher Chapano, Petra Ballings & Robin Wild 2008 (published 2012) Occasional Publications in Biodiversity No. 23 Biodiversity Foundation for Africa P.O. Box FM730, Famona, Bulawayo, Zimbabwe Vegetation Survey of Mt Gorongosa, page 2 SUMMARY Mount Gorongosa is a large inselberg almost 700 sq. km in extent in central Mozambique. With a vertical relief of between 900 and 1400 m above the surrounding plain, the highest point is at 1863 m. The mountain consists of a Lower Zone (mainly below 1100 m altitude) containing settlements and over which the natural vegetation cover has been strongly modified by people, and an Upper Zone in which much of the natural vegetation is still well preserved. Both zones are very important to the hydrology of surrounding areas. Immediately adjacent to the mountain lies Gorongosa National Park, one of Mozambique's main conservation areas. A key issue in recent years has been whether and how to incorporate the upper parts of Mount Gorongosa above 700 m altitude into the existing National Park, which is primarily lowland. [These areas were eventually incorporated into the National Park in 2010.] In recent years the unique biodiversity and scenic beauty of Mount Gorongosa have come under severe threat from the destruction of natural vegetation. This is particularly acute as regards moist evergreen forest, the loss of which has accelerated to alarming proportions.

Received: 13th February, 17; Revised 26th April, 17, Accepted: 12th May, 17; Available Online:25th May, 2017 ABSTRACT Plectranthus is a large and widespread genus of Lamiaceae family with a diversity of ethnobotanical uses. In traditional medicine, the juice of stem and leaves of Plectranthus hadiensis which is mixed with honey is taken as a remedy for diarrhea. The aim of the present study is to determine the chemical composition of the essential oil from the seed of P. hadiensis and to evaluate antimicrobial efficacy of the oil. The essential oil of the seeds from P. hadiensis is obtained by hydro-distillation and analyzed by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC/MS). It results in the identification of 25 compounds representing 99.3%, of the total oil. The main compound is Piperitone oxide (33.33%). Antibacterial activity of the essential oil of P. hadiensis is tested against two Gram-positive and two Gram-negative bacteria, using zone of inhibition method. The essential oils inhibit the organisms and shows the zone of inhibition in the range of 20-35mm. The essential oil can serve as an antibacterial agent.

It plays a dominant role in both horticulture and traditional medicine. Some 12 species are documented for their use in treating ailments by various indigenous peoples of southern Africa. It is a firm favourite in gardens and Plectranthus has been bred to further utilise the remarkable diversity of indigenous South African wildflowers with amenity horticultural potential. Although previously subjected to both horticultural (Van Jaarsveld, 2006) and ethnobotanical (Lukhoba et al., 2006) review, Plectranthus is a genus with economic potential in various sectors, and this article aims to review this potential of southern African species. © 2011 SAAB.

ABSTRACT Plants are the rich natural source of bioactive compounds. The more diversified composition of the plants makes their role as biomedicine. These bioactive molecules are often lethal to both plants and animals. Based on ethnomedical use, the leaves Plectranthus mollis, Elaeagnus conferta and Grewia tilaefolia leaf extracts were extracted successively with organic solvents. These plants are reported to exhibit relaxant activity on smooth and skeletal muscles, and has cytotoxic and anti-tumour promoting activity, and can be used in the treatment of cancer. These crude extracts were screened for their toxic potential against three Gram- positive bacteria, five Gram- negative bacteria and two fungus by using disc diffusion method. The hydro alcoholic extracts of the plant possessed significant antimicrobial activities on both Gram- positive and Gram- negative bacteria.
